The final fight is HERE! Funny enough story this is actually where Akira wanted to end his story. He wanted Goku and Frieza, who was the strongest being in the universe at this point, to go out in a bang. However, this is where DBZ popularity skyrocketed. So we got years more of DBZ (and eventually Super!)

So this starts off where the last one left off. Ginyu is in Goku's body and he's being a real asshole. Thinking he's some tough guy now. However, what happens? Oh yeah, he doesn't know how to use the awesome power Goku obtained and is useless. So after Goku gets his body back, which we all knew he would, it's a race to summon the dragon before Frieza returns. What's next is basically everybody trying their hardest to take on Frieza but of course not doing too well till Goku comes back ready to fight.

What makes this fight legendary is how big and massive, and how dire it all is, compared to most fights in this series. While the last one was great, this is the one to really hit when it comes to Goku and everyone else's life on the line. Not to mention this is the arrival of the Super Saiyan form, which is legendary in itself. The brutal fight is about to reach it's exciting climax when the volume ends right before the fight. Really annoyed at that.

Overall though, Frieza is a great villain and this is a great volume.
