Vegeta crushing that earring is the most Vegeta thing ever and he would really rather die than stay fused with Goku forever

Goku nearly getting swallowed by Buu's digestive system, looking like giant chocolate, was such a bizarre yet hilarious moment; I totally didn't expect that kind of gross-out humor in such a high-stakes battle! It definitely made me chuckle, even with the fate of the world on the line.

not a fan of how they just defused for no reason because the old kai said it was permanent and now we are stuck with a filler episode about giant worms and green parasites biting goku

Seeing two of the strongest fighters in the universe survive by floating on a giant piece of cake, it really shows how bizarre this whole arc has become lately

Ending the episode with goku getting caught in that giant worm tongue is such a nightmare and the animation on the green slime was way too detailed for its own good

I am still trying to process why the fusion ended because the old kai said it was forever and now they are just back to normal without a real explanation yet. It feels like a total cheat but at least we get to see vegeta being his usual grumpy self and refusing to fuse ever again while they wade through stomach acid

Buu hunting down those people in the ruins just to hear them scream is genuinely dark and it makes the goofy stuff happening inside him feel way more urgent

The thought of gohan and the others just sitting in pods somewhere while goku and vegeta fight giant roundworms is so stressful and gross to think about

Those green bean things biting goku were actually creepy and I did not expect this show to turn into a literal horror movie inside a pink monsters stomach

Vegeta choosing the right path just because goku said left is so petty and hilarious even while the world is literally ending around them

Everyone thought the potara was permanent so seeing them just split apart because of some weird air inside buu is such a massive curveball for the rules of the show

I seriously felt sick watching them slide down that throat and the way everything smells like rotting candy and old socks made my stomach turn too

That Potara fusion falling apart inside the monster was a massive shock after they said it was permanent and it really changes the whole dynamic for this rescue mission

The look on Buu's face when he was clutching his stomach because of the internal explosions was hilarious and he really has no idea that his lunch is fighting back

The giant worm appearing at the end was a bit out of nowhere but the increase in scale makes the situation inside Buu feel slightly more dangerous for the guys

My skin was crawling when the walls started pulsing while they were trying to blast their way out of the stomach and I hope they find Gohan soon because this place is nasty

It is actually quite a surprise that Vegito planned the whole thing just to get everyone out from the inside, even if the internal world looks totally gross and Goku and Vegeta bickering while standing in digestive juices is hilarious since Vegeta is so annoyed about being back to normal and hates the smell of all that old candy rot

You really have to wonder what Buu was eating to have half digested chocolate bars the size of houses just floating around in his stomach for the guys to jump on

The way those green parasites turned from cute little beans into toothy monsters actually gave me the creeps and I felt bad for Goku getting covered in them like that

Watching them navigate those pools of acid on a giant piece of cake was so bizarre, and it really felt like a twisted version of a science show inside a pink monster
