For Italian fans, the ITA-dubbed version of this episode became iconic through its broadcasts on Mediaset (Italia 1) , where Goku’s departure remains one of the most nostalgic moments for an entire generation.
Goku enters the tournament specifically to find Uub , the ten-year-old human reincarnation of the pure evil Majin Buu.
Set ten years after the defeat of Majin Buu, the finale centers on the 28th World Martial Arts Tournament.
