Dragonball Super Episode 106 Review [ RANT ]

Hey guys, How are you today  If you want to find a way to absolutely shit on a fanbase then look no further than this pile of manure right here. The way they managed to bury Tien was magical with so many details and layers you would think he had killed one of the writer’s Grandmas.

Story

This episode begins with the exciting new character Dr. Rota who apparently has a special ability that will destroy Gohan and Piccolo. But before he can do so is quickly destroyed by a blast and squashed making his character absolutely useless which I have to admit Super is very good at doing. Realizing they are out in the open both our heroes begin to discuss a strategy against this apparent Sniper. But before they can really do anything are hit by one of his shots thanks to a reflective red orb and Piccolo has his arm taken off. We soon see that these red orbs are shot by this huge red tub of lard and the Snipers blasts go through him and the orbs which our heroes soon realize with teamwork. Creating a smokescreen Gohan and Piccolo slowly put together the pieces of this puzzle but are attacked as even with the smokescreen can be seen with heat seeking eyes. Even after this the two still continue to stand there and get shot at once again which transitions to more repeat Animation starring Zeno and The Grand Priest repeatedly.

Finally we get the star of this episode Tien who quickly warns Goku and Vegeta to get down to which the latter brushes off before nearly getting his ass blasted to oblivion . Back with father and son Piccolo now knows what it feels like to lose both his arms because him and Gohan didn’t dodge. Having a brilliant idea Piccolo and Gohan heat up the area around them to fool the red fuckers sight but immediately becomes useless as he now just shoots everyone all at once. Seeing the red guy is causing the reflections Goku and Vegeta go to stop him while Tien runs through the area like he’s Rambo. Blasting at the red ogre both Saiyans are surprised that he can reflect Ki even though they saw him do it 10 seconds ago. Guess Goku isn’t the only one to have brain damage. Lardass then proceeds to explain why he has trapped them and instead of using that time to run up and simply punch him or use a Kiai instead Goku and Vegeta go. “Damn we sure ran into that trap.”

We then learn the name of the Sniper Hermila who looks like a green Howard the Duck as he shoots out another wave of Ki. Seeing Hermila Tien creates four clones of himself and instead of using any protection or trying to sneak up on him as he hadn’t been paying attention to them. Tien instead decides to just run at the guy out in the open like he’s a main character and gets his ass destroyed tanking the attacks instead of actually trying to dodge them. Hell even FUCKING GOKU uses better strategy which simply amounts to chucking rocks at his opponent. Getting close enough to Hermila Tien uses a Tri-Beam and now has him dead to right. Now of course a smart fighter would still keep their guard up and take down their enemy quickly before they can try anything else. What does Tien do? Walks right up to the guy and gives him a chance to fight back which ends with Tien and Hermila eliminating each other.

And the episode tries to hide this burial of Tien who let me remind you is a master strategist and Martial Artist who has fought for decades and has his own school yet got eliminated like a fucking amateur yet the show tries to hide this by having Beerus be impressed which just devalues the Roshi moment from last episode as it just makes the guy look like he would respect you if you managed to wipe your ass. Hell even Vegeta basically sums up Tiens worth in this Arc in three words when Goku comments on his elimination. “It doesn’t matter.” And then both Rota and the red guy who never got a name reveal are eliminated ending this shit episode. This episode managed to ruin any goodwill I gained after Episode 105.

The story was absolute filler, offered no development for any character, and only managed to waste everyone’s time and effort who bothered to watch this shitty episode or make this episode. For the writers who made this episode you deserve to be fired for this travesty in every sense of the word. It feels like someone came up with this episode then after throwing it in the garbage because it was obviously an awful idea Toei dug it out of the trash and then decided to make it into an episode without creating a second draft to iron out the problems. Everything in this episode amounted to less than nothing and I can say with all my heart this episodes story manages to get my first a 0/10 it has no positives only negatives and if anyone has a problem with my rating than I challenge you to tell me what was the point of this episode besides nothing.

Characters

And if you believed the characters would fare much better oh ho ho ho boy are you wrong. This was apparently supposed to be Tiens crowning moment in this Tournament. That finally Tien one of my top 5 characters in this Arc would get his moment in the sun. Instead I watched Tien get sucked into a Black Hole as Toriyama is saying. “Lol you thought Tien was going to be portrayed well fuck that!” And then proceeded to kick me in the balls. Everything Tien did in this episode was as stupid. He charged at the Sniper of Universe 2 then proceeded to let his guard down and got eliminated like a chump. Somehow this episode about Tien had more screen time for Piccolo and Gohan who did nothing of value than the actual focus!

Goku somehow comes off smarter yet even him and Vegeta are idiots as they blasted at the guy who they saw reflect Ki and then didn’t try to punch him or use their other attacks but instead throw rocks. Gohan and Piccolo act both smart and incredibly stupid and any plan they came up with turned out to be absolutely useless making their presence in this Episode pointless. Hermila and the red tub of lard are nothing but fodder with no character and only serve to drag down the already piss poor characterization. Also Rota served no purpose and was just a waste of a possible cool ability. None of the characters are portrayed well and the only reason the antagonists get anywhere is because seems to act like morons instead of actual smart fighters with decades of experience. There were at least one or two neat points as while his plan failed Piccolo did come up with a pretty genius plan and I got a kick out of the rock throwing. So i’ll be a little generous and give this a 2/10.

Animation

Finally we come to the Animation as there was no Fighting in this one just people running around like chickens with their heads cut off. The Animation was laughable at best with characters being off model a good amount and them at times looking like circus freaks instead of actual people. Need I remind you of Vegeta’s Big Hands Mode or their faces looking just weird. It’s obvious not even the Animators care about this shitfest of an episode and that they just wanted to get it done. For any Animator working on this episode I do not blame you I pity that you had to waste your time and effort on making Animation for such a crappy product. I can only hope that you guys can go on to work for bigger and better things. Back to the Animation the explosions look pretty generic not really giving any feeling when someone gets hit as it just looks like the same damn explosion we’ve seen 300 times. The Animation isn’t bad just mediocre or below average at best which is probably the most positive thing about this episode as it earns a 4/10.

 Final Verdict

This episode was absolute garbage in almost every way imaginable except the Animation which even then isn’t exactly top notch. The story is pointless and only buries everyone in it, The characters look like morons and the antagonists for this episode have no character at all and only manage to come off as boring jobbers who should never have given our heroes so much trouble. This episode is quite possibly the worst Super episode and ranks up there with Episode 5, Episode 24, and Episode 67. I give this train wreck of an Episode a 2/10 it offers nothing of value and only misery.
