In last week’s Episode 2, Goku and friends, reduced to child-like sizes due to a scheme by the antagonist Gomor, decide they must travel to the Demon Realm. Picking up his old Power Pole, Goku sets out on this new adventure but is met by a mysterious young demon named Glorio, setting the stage for thrilling developments.

Due to the “mini” transformations, 12 main characters have new voice actors. Masako Nozawa remains as the voice of Goku and Goten, while Mini Vegeta is now voiced by Yudai Mino, replacing Ryo Horikawa. Similarly, Bulma (Mai Nakahara), Piccolo (Tomohiro Yamaguchi), and Krillin (Aki Kanada) have fresh voice talent, adding a unique charm to the miniaturized cast.
