Ep. 232: Gohan's futile attacks fail to stop the emergence of the pink entity from the egg.
Aired on July 6, 1994

Gohan attempts to prevent the hatching by firing Kamehameha waves at the ball, but the effort proves ineffective. The shell opens and releases pink steam, leaving the interior empty. The group assumes Gohan successfully destroyed the creature, yet the steam suddenly coalesces to form Majin Buu. Although he appears as a fat, pink child rather than a terrifying monster, the Supreme Kai confirms his true identity. Meanwhile, Goku and Vegeta detect a significant spike in power levels, realizing that Buu has successfully hatched. This unexpected outcome shifts the situation as the characters confront the newly emerged entity.
