Super Dragon Ball Heroes, Episode 2: Goku Goes Berserk, the Evil Saiyan's Rampgae
Yeah, Super Dragon Ball Heroes is not a series particularly concerned about plot points, really. It's just "LET'S HAVE HIM AND HIM FIGHT" and while there's some degree of fun in that, it does kind of make watching this feel particularly jarring as we keep jumping from one scene to the next. Never mind the fact that, y'know, we haven't really gotten any sort of explanation about Fu's whole operation and just how it properly functions. The "Evil Saiyan" from the first episode isn't Bardock or Broly or Raditz or whoever, but a brand new character called Cumber (or Kanba, which sounds a bit less dumb).
Anyway, Kanba breaks free, Fu orgasms, Kanba fights Goku and Vegeta and shows off his generic people-controlling evil powers. Trunks apparently made friends with Cooler off-screen, but everyone can't touch Kanba. He's so badass he blocks all the attacks thrown at him, chokes Trunks, and Goku and Vegeta combine into Vegito.
Eh, I guess? Considering each episode has like a five-minute total of screentime for them to really do anything, but none of these feel particularly fleshed out as we just jump from one scene to the next. It's sufficient enough to tell a coherent story and to give each form and power a bit of a spotlight -- Golden Cooler, Evil Goku, Kanba's full design, Vegito's transformation... but it all just sort of becomes a barrage of brief action scenes that last for a couple seconds each. It's well animated, I suppose, and neat to watch. But that's honestly all I can say about this episode. Neat.
