I can't believe Vegito really beat the crap out of Buu as a literal piece of coffee candy and he called himself the world's strongest jawbreaker which is the funniest thing this show has ever done

Vegeta coming back from the dead is exactly what the story needed and watching King Yemma realize that the prince is the only hope left was such a cool moment

Seeing Buu get humiliated by a tiny piece of candy was hilarious because it just zipped through his body like a bullet and made the whole fight worth it

That jawbreaker line made me lose it and it was hilarious how a piece of coffee candy could still beat the life out of a giant monster

This show gets so weird sometimes because one minute the world is ending and the next we have a talking piece of candy beating up the main villain

Buu screaming in triumph at the end was such a fake out since Vegito let it happen and the shield he had inside the body was a smart move

Switching from the serious stuff with Vegeta back to the goofy candy fight was kind of jarring and you really just want more of the Yemma scenes instead

The candy flying through Buu like a bullet was so satisfying and the way it left holes in his body was a great way to show Vegito is still the strongest

Vegito counting to ten while Buu panicked was a total power move and that confident smirk right before the tentacle grabbed him made it clear he was in control the whole time

Watching the jawbreaker moment was so good for me even if some people think the candy fight went on for too long, because it showed just how much better Vegito is than everyone else, and then that ending where he gets absorbed on purpose was such a cool twist and now he can actually save the kids from inside the monster

King Yemma choosing to send Vegeta back was a massive turn and having the Prince return while the world is in chaos felt huge

Nothing was better for me than seeing Buu struggle against something so small and his frustration made the whole episode worth it even if the pacing felt slow

It is honestly kind of wild when you see Yamcha just chilling in a steam bath while the world is literally ending, it really highlights how different his life is now compared to the others

Buu getting so mad at a piece of candy was so funny and his face when he realized he still could not touch Vegito was the best

I cannot believe Vegito actually fought as a coffee drop and he still beat the hell out of Buu and that jawbreaker line was hilarious

floating through those gross tunnels inside buu with a glowing shield was such a smart reveal and it explains why vegito was being so cocky earlier

you can really feel buu losing his sanity when he realizes even magic spells like turning people into candy wont stop vegito from making him look like a joke

that countdown vegito did was pure psychological warfare and buu was sweating so hard just trying to find a way out of certain death

this show usually takes itself so seriously but seeing a literal coffee drop beat up the most dangerous monster in the galaxy was my favorite thing and some people think it drags on too much with the filler, but seeing buu punch his own face trying to catch a piece of candy was worth it and then the twist with vegito's plan

yamcha just chilling in a steam bath while the universe is ending is hilarious, king kai and krillin were clearly losing their minds at him
