Last time we joined the heroes, they had all been turned back into children by Goma and his minions. However, due to technical issues, Gomah only received one of his wishes and decided to kidnap baby Dende until he could summon the Dragon Balls again to obtain the other two wishes he wanted.

Once the characters enter the Demon Realm, it is revealed that there are several worlds they can visit. New creatures are emerging, as are new dangers. But Goku is not so lucky with his new gravity. This means that the unfriendly natives have a rare advantage over him (although Glorio's familiarity with the new world certainly allows him to move much faster). Still, in terms of getting it right, the series takes its time getting there.
