Goku and Beerus finally engaged in battle - who won?
After a number of episodes with scenes that obviously acted as time wasters/fillers, "Dragon Ball Super" finally got a meaty treat in episode 10, aptly titled "Show me Goku! Super Saiyan God of Power," in the form of the Goku-Beerus fight. Attack of the Fanboy has called it "the best of the season so far."
"You can say the last few episodes were full of filler content that dragged on and on. Episode 9 was full of 10 minutes of Goku just becoming a Super Saiyan God. Episode 10 got rid of the fluff and went straight to the action," the site observed. "It was just Beerus vs Super Saiyan God Goku from the get go. It is similar to episode 5, although the animation was far better here."
An added plus - the animation wasn't as amateurish in this episode.
"The episode started with Goku figuring out his new powers, it took time for him to get accustomed to them," Yibada related. "During the episode, Whis told that others cannot get a sense of the power levels from a god."
"Goku blasted a powerful Kamehameha on Beerus, however he could manage to beat it. During the battle, Goku did manage to injure Beerus," the site went on to report.
"Apart from the fighters, the fight was also witnessed by Bulma. She along with some others took a ship into the sky to watch Goku and Beerus in action," Yibada said.
As expected, humor can't be absent in a "Dragon Ball Z" show. However, there's only one such bit in this battle-heavy episode.
"The only humorous part of the episode is that Pilaf and his gang hang out with Whis to eat some food. I don't recall this being in Battle of Gods, so this was a nice touch to the episode," AOTFB noted.
The episode ended with both opponents just staring at each other, hinting that there's more to come in episode 11.
With the way things went in episode 10, it looks like Goku and Beerus are still testing and feeling each other out. Perhaps they'll go all out in the next round, which is suspected to happen in the next episode, said to be titled "Let's Keep Going Beerus-sama!", according to International Business Times.
Considering that episode 12 and 13 are titled "The Universe Crumbles?! Clash! The God of Destruction vs Super Saiyan God!" and "Goku, Go Surpass Super Saiyan God!" respectively, it looks like the battle will be a drawn out one that may be the delight of DBZ fans.
