[edit] Summary
Son Goku uses energy from all of the universe and he kills Omega Shen Long with the Universal Genki Dama. Everyone is looking around and yelling for Goku to show himself. Everybody comes running to find Goku unconscious on the ground, when all of a sudden, the real, benevolent Shenron appears without being summoned, which is something that has never been seen before.
Shenron informs the Z Fighters that he won't be able to grant any wishes for a long time due to everything that has happened involving the Dragon Balls, but Goku asks him if he will grant just one. He asks Shenron if he can bring everyone that died at the hands of the dragons and Super Android 17 back to life. Shenron grants the wish. Everyone begins to worry that Goku is leaving them again.
Shenron tells Goku to climb upon his back. After Goku climbs on, a sad Vegeta runs over and asks Goku where he is going. A moment later, Vegeta realizes that Goku is going to train with Shen Long and help fulfill this wish. Before going, Goku tells Vegeta that he is now Earth's protector, and tells him that everyone is in his hands now. Goku and Shenron go flying, and the Dragon Balls begin circulating around Goku. Chichi tells Goku to be home in time for dinner, but Goku and Shen Long fly off.
Son Gohan, Videl, and Chichi return to their homes. Goten and Gohan try to comfort Chichi by telling her that Goku always comes back for dinner. Trunks talks to Pan about the Dragon Balls, and is confident that they will again come back one day. Then Pan looks worried, and she stumbles upon Goku's fighting uniform. Vegeta comes and tells her to take care of it like if it was a treasure. Vegeta then flies off, leaving Pan alone. Pan, with tears in her eyes, wonders if Goku will ever come back during her lifetime.
Goku asks the dragon to stop a moment at Master Roshi's house to see Krillin, who was newly revived. They start talking about the past and end up having a little play fight. Krillin wins and then Goku disappears. Then Master Roshi thanks Shenron for the Dragon Balls. Goku also visits Piccolo, who is now in Hell keeping watch over everyone there. Goku tells Piccolo that he knows he will come to heaven to be with him and everybody else sometime, and then leaves after saying goodbye. Many people see Goku with Shenron, including Yamcha and Puar who are driving through the desert, as well as Tien and Chiaotzu, who are busy training.
Goku goes with the dragon and lays on his back. The Dragon Balls enter Goku's body, and the Four-Star ball goes into Goku's heart. (This is symbolic, because the Four-Star ball has always represented Grandpa Gohan to Goku.) Shenron roars, and then he and Goku vanish into another dimension.
100 Years later, a World Martial Arts Tournament has started. Pan is the only one alive of the old Z Fighters as all of them have died of natural causes, and she's old. She has a grandson. Her Grandson, Goku Jr. was on the battlefield. Right besides Pan there was a lady that looked like Bulma. She wears the earrings of the Capsule Corp, and is a descendant of Trunks, Bulma, Bulla, and Vegeta. She asks Pan if Goku Jr. is her son. She says, "He's my Grandson!!"
The lady says sorry and declares that her son will still win. In the stadium, there are two statues dedicated to the two most admired heroes in the history of Earth. One's dedicated to Hercule and the other one is dedicated to Goku.
Goku Jr.'s opponent is none other than Vegeta Jr. The fight starts and they both hit each other hard. Then, Vegeta Jr. decides to turn into a Super Saiyan and Goku Jr. transforms as well. Vegeta Jr. then tells him, "Hey that's pretty cool, there! I didn't know we could both become blond!" They resume fighting and they jump the scene over to Pan. Pan looks at the other side of the crowd and sees Goku (Now an adult) watching the battle. Pan says, "Grandpa?" She begins running where he was at, and the scene goes back to the tournament.
Both little kids hit each other. The people are shocked at the winner of the tournament, but they never show who wins.
Pan runs out till she's outside the stadium, and Goku is nowhere to be seen. Pan begins thinking and says: "Pan you old goat,you must be seeing things again."
Then, Goku is shown walking through the crowd. A long flashback occurs with the credits rolling, and all of the most prominent parts of the series are played.
After this, Goku catches the Power Pole and flies off on the Flying Nimbus cloud. Ending the series, Goku's last words are "Until we meet again you guys".

Brief summary | Shenron heals Goku, and explains that he c … Shenron heals Goku, and explains that he cannot allow the Dragon Balls to be overused again, so he is leaving the earth, and taking the balls with him, planning to return when the people of Earth learn to solve their own problems without using the balls. However, he allows one more wish at Goku's request, which is to repair all damage done to the Earth since the gateway to Hell was opened up by Android 17, as well as revive all the innocent people that the villains killed. Just before Shenron leaves, he calls for Goku to accompany him. Goku entrusts Vegeta to take his place as Earth's savior, and as they fly away, Bulma reminisces about her time with Goku. Pan picks up Goku's clothes that were left behind, and Vegeta tells her to treasure them dearly. Goku stops by Kame House to say goodbye to Master Roshi and Krillin, who has been revived. He also stops in hell to say goodbye to Piccolo, and tells him that he will one day get back into Heaven. As he lies on the back of Shenron, the seven Dragon Balls become one with his body, and he becomes one with Shenron. 100 years later, Vegeta Jr. and Goku Jr., Pan's grandson, are fighting in the junior division championship at the World Martial Arts Tournament. Goku Jr. is wearing Goku's clothes that Pan picked up many years ago. Pan looks down and sees the now-adult Goku watching the fight, but when she goes down to find him, he's not there anymore; Pan merely assumes that she was imagining things. As Goku exits the stadium, he flashes back to many of the events that shaped his past, from his adoption by Grandpa Gohan to Baby's defeat. With his Power Pole in hand, Goku flies off on the Flying Nimbus into the distance, having the last words on the show "'Til We Meet Again Guys." rds on the show "'Til We Meet Again Guys." |
