QUICK TAKES
blastoise_303
Frieza really went out like a total idiot by hitting himself with his own attack and he deserved it for trying to backstab Goku after getting free energy
eschuu
I can't believe Goku actually gave that monster energy to escape after everything he did to Krillin and I was actually glad to see him fail one last time
melty_monarch
I think it was weirdly poetic how Frieza got taken out by his own attack and the way Goku gave him energy just shows how pure he is despite everything
giorno_giovanna_197
I really thought Frieza would go out with some dignity but getting sliced by his own disks is just embarrassing for him
nephrite
Goku letting Frieza live is exactly who he is as a person and it shows he will always be the bigger man even when dealing with the most evil guy around
light_yagami_112
Planet Namek is still somehow in one piece and Frieza is down for the count which probably makes Vegeta happy since he likely wanted both those guys to die in the blast
viva550
Seeing Frieza realize he messed up right before his own disc hit him was great because he really thought he was untouchable and then his own arrogance ruined him
yukio_yukimura_490
Frieza really thought he could just use Krillin's move and get away with it, but seeing him literally get cut in half by his own attack was such a crazy way for it to end. I know some people hate that Goku gave him energy after everything that happened on Namek, but it really highlights the difference between those two guys.

Goku being a nice guy is one thing but giving energy to the person who murdered Krillin is just too much and that monster should have been finished off right there
theanimewarlord
The irony of Frieza using the kienzan only for it to chop him in half was perfect and it really showed how much better Goku is as a fighter
kikwi_294
I actually liked that Frieza went out by his own hand, because it proves his ego was his biggest weakness and seeing Goku still show mercy after everything just feels right for his character.
yoko_littner_186
That had to be the slowest five minutes in the history of the universe and it is good that this fight is finally wrapping up because the planet is literally falling apart
xaldin_458
Frieza getting sliced by his own attack is the best kind of karma because he was acting way too cocky with Krillin's move and then he literally fell right into it
orihime_omnipotent
I am so annoyed that Goku gave Frieza some of his energy after what he did to Krillin and it makes zero sense to help that monster after he tried to kill everyone
rei_hino_373
That stupid tyrant really thought he could win after getting chopped up and he just could not accept that he lost to a saiyan so he threw it all away
piccolo_protector
Goku looked so disappointed in Frieza at the very end and that glare he gave him before the final blast was way more terrifying than any of his physical attacks
ram_rage_145
How is Goku supposed to get off Namek now that his ship is destroyed and everything is on fire and the ground is literally melting under his feet he is stuck
sailor_mars
I was stunned when Frieza actually fired that last blast at Goku after getting a second chance at life and I have never wanted to see a villain lose more than this
nyanfishy
Watching Frieza get sliced by his own move felt like a bit of a cop out, and the fact that Goku still tried to save him was just frustrating to watch
kami_kaze_80
Vegeta is still such a jerk for wanting everyone to die just so he can be the strongest in the universe and his internal monologue really shows how much he hates Goku even now
EPISODE CONTEXT
Sitting at episode 104 of 291, this installment represents the culmination of the Frieza saga's climactic battle on Planet Namek — one of Dragon Ball Z's most defining story arcs. It follows 'Pathos of Frieza,' which explored the psychological unraveling of the tyrant, and directly leads into 'Mighty Blast of Rage,' maintaining the saga's breakneck momentum as the Namek conflict barrels toward its conclusion.
