Seru Junia Funsai), previously titled The Unleashing, is the twentieth episode of the Cell Games Saga and the one hundred eighty-fifth overall episode in the uncut Dragon Ball Z series.

Summary

Epicgohanscream — Gohan's power increase

Enraged with Cell for killing the good-natured Android 16, and the Cell Juniors' beating of his friends and father, Gohan's hidden power erupts, transforming him into a second level of Super Saiyan, later called Super Saiyan 2. Throughout Gohan's transformation, Cell remains unphased and even taunts Gohan with making the same mistake as Future Trunks by powering up.

The Cell Juniors then turn their attention back to the Z Fighters, and continue their assault. This angers Gohan further, causing his energy to crackle. Cell then notices this unusual power up and he eventually encourages Gohan to "let it all go". Gohan's massive power output upon unleashing the form disables all electronic devices, including the ZTV equipment.

After the dust settles, Super Saiyan 2 Gohan approaches Cell. After going through the initial shock of Gohan's transformation, Cell calms down and decides that this would make a good game fighting him. However, after declaring "No games", Gohan takes back the Senzu Beans that Cell had stolen from Krillin earlier in a speed fast enough to catch Cell off-guard. After avoiding Cell's attempt to reclaim the beans, Gohan suddenly appears next to a Cell Jr. The Cell Jr., after being briefly shocked, gives Gohan a malicious smile and lunges at him, only for Gohan to step out of the way and decapitate the Cell Jr. with one swift blow, much to the astonishment of Cell and the Z Fighters present.

Gohan then continues to destroy all the Cell Juniors effortlessly even after one takes Krillin hostage by holding his hand to his neck but it proves to be no use. Gohan leaves the Senzu Beans with Future Trunks to be given to the injured Z Fighters. After saving his friends from the vicious Cell Juniors, Gohan is prepared to face Cell himself.

Due to Caroni, Pirozhki and Miss Piiza being created for the anime, all scenes involving them are exclusive to the anime.

In the manga, Gohan defeats the Cell Jr's. almost straight after becoming a Super Saiyan 2. In the anime, there are additional scenes such as one of the Cell Jr. holding Krillin hostage and the Cell Jr. performing the Kamehameha, Special Beam Cannon and Tri-Bean against Gohan.
Chi-Chi becoming frustrated after her TV loses footage of the fight and shouting at her father is exclusive to the anime.

Trivia

Gohan actually kills eight Cell Juniors in this episode, even though Cell only creates seven of them. This is most likely an error in production.
