Opening 1, version 6: Chozetsu Dynamic by Kazuya Yoshii
Ending 6: Chao Han Music by Arukara

Last Time: A science convention that Goku, Vegeta, and Bulma are attending is interrupted when an evil ghost attacks, using a robotic girl named Arale that he is controlling. Goku and Vegeta attempt to stop her, but their attacks do no damage against her cartoony body. Before their fight can get out of hand, Beerus arrives and disintegrates the evil ghost. However, before he can do the same to Arale, he gets sick and leaves in a rush. Afterwards, everyone says their goodbyes.

This Time: Champa challenges Beerus to a game of baseball, Universe 6 vs. 7. But with a bunch of superpowered beings playing the game, will the sport itself destroy the Earth? And will Yamcha finally be relevant?

NOTES: Tonight's episode of Super is the first ever full-on sports episode in the franchise. This is also literally the only Super episode where Yamcha does anything, so enjoy. No spoilers!

Get ready for the closest that the actual series will feel like it's being written by Team FourStar.

"Well, if I can't beat you in a tournament, then I'll beat you on the ball field!"

Champa is such a Garfield.

So we're playing baseball today. Well, it'll make more sense than last week anyway.

Are Tien and Chaotzu even on this show anymore?

Your brother's idiocy involves him guessing you had some ulterior motive, Champa?

You want everybody to celebrate the end of a game? YOU FIEND!

One. ONE scene Yamcha was seen playing baseball (which wasn't even canon) and suddenly that's his whole identity.

Well, that and failing.

Vegeta and Goten on Universe 6's team? Traitors!

You always want to fight everybody, Goku. That's actually caused trouble.

Wait. Why is it Goten is the one between him and Trunks on Team U6 if Vegeta is on Team U6?

Once a rival, always a rival.

I don't think you can call it a "goodwill game." Doesn't Turner still have that trademarked?

Looking forward to the crossover episode where they face the characters from Samurai Champloo in a game of baseball.

Goku: "Wow! I haven't seen Yamcha this worked up in a while."

Well, I mean, it's the one thing he's good at and doesn't have to die doing.

The pitch heard 'round the world.

There may not be a planet left by the time the game is over.

Not THAT soft, Goku.

And here we get to the boring part of baseball. That is, the whole thing.

"Hello! Human fly, here!"

So yeah, Beerus is so invested into sibling rivalry.

And Whis gets to snark everybody out as usual.

At least with this game there's nothing at stake.

That IS a funny-looking fly.

Throw it LIKE you, but NOT like you.

The sub-only anime releases in North America are the invention of the 2010s.
Not all of Family Guy has aged well (and he knows this - hell, he's friends with the PTC president now) but I genuinely think Seth MacFarlane is a really good guy.

Imagine a broadcast TV network giving someone who worked at the Golden Age of Cartoon Network the opportunity to worked on a show, and doing 8 interviews, only to completely ghosted him for weeks for absolutely no reason.



Try to wrap your head around on that one, folks.

Seriously. Explain that to me, Memorable Entertainment Television? :/
Didn't notice that the site was back...

I'll start off by saying X-Men 97 has been a blast to watch. As someone who grew up exposed to the films and cameos on other shows, it was definitely a different treat seeing how both iterations of the franchise handle the characters and their world.
Professor X's speech in today's episode was powerful ... nuff said.
I've ground my wisdom tooth down overtime so that I can clench my jaw properly again. It's equal parts good and bad news.
