Ep. 67: Goku Defeats Recoome and Evades Burter and Jeice with Super Speed
Aired on November 14, 1990
After Goku defeats Recoome with a single punch, Burter and Jeice attempt to attack him. Their speed-based assaults fail to connect, as Goku dodges so rapidly that he appears stationary. Observing this display, Vegeta concludes that Goku has transformed into the legendary Super Saiyan. If accurate, this would mark the first appearance of this warrior form in thousands of years. The narrative focuses on the Ginyu Force members' inability to land a hit against Goku's enhanced reflexes and Vegeta's realization of the mythic power level Goku has achieved.
