Dragonball Z Episode 6: Even King Yama is Surprised! The Fight Continues in the Next World

(original, Japanese episode)

Everyone is still in disbelief about the disappearance of Goku. Bulma has Krillin take the scouter off of Raditz so she can fix it and use it to find Yamcha and Tien. They decide to return to Kame House. Piccolo has a different idea. Piccolo looks like he is powering up again, but he regenerates his left arm instead. He says that he wants to train Gohan, and even though Krillin and Roshi disagree, he takes Gohan anyway so he can train him for the fight against the Saiya-jins. We then see the deceases Goku at the Earth’s Check-In station for souls. He looks just the same but has a halo over his head. Kami is trying to convince King Yama to allow Goku to seek training with King Kai. Goku asks if Raditz had come through here. Yama says he condemned him to hell, but Raditz tried to rebel. Yama easily controlled him. This surprises Goku and he wants to train with Yama, but Kami says King Kai is much stronger than Yama. This upsets Yama and threatens to send Kami to hell when he dies. Yama allows Goku to seek training by going to Snake Way, however, he warns him not to fall off because he will fall into hell. Goku is then escorted to the head of Snake Way. Back in the airplane, Krillin is still in mourning about Goku. Roshi decides that Krillin should tell Chi-Chi about Goku’s death and Piccolo taking Gohan. Krillin really doesn’t want to in fear of the wrath of Chi-Chi. Goku arrives at the head of Snake Way. The path looks extremely long, about one million kilometers! The only person who has made it to Kai’s in the past 100 million years is Yama. Goku is up for the task. He leaves a message to tell Roshi not to bring him back to life for a year. He then begins his long journey. Piccolo has arrived to his training sight for Gohan and dumps the boy into a pond. Gohan finally regains consciousness and immediately begins crying. He then searches frantically for his father while Piccolo tries to stop the boy from crying. He tells Gohan that his father is dead. He continues by saying that men more powerful than Raditz are on their way to Earth and Goku and he need his help. Gohan says he knows nothing about fighting. Piccolo tells Gohan about the power Gohan has buried inside himself. To give some proof, he grips Gohan’s head like a baseball and hurls him toward a cliff. Gohan’s fear turns into rage and shoots an energy blast that obliterates the cliff. Gohan (Piccolo too) is astonished at what he has just done. Piccolo explains that Gohan’s power is based on his emotions. He can only sustain his rage for a short while, and it will not be enough to defeat the Saiya-jins. Gohan’s training now begins as Goku continues down the long path of Snake Way.
