Dragon Ball Super was an anime series that ran from 2015 to 2018. In total 131 episodes of Dragon Ball Super were aired. With a total of 14 reported filler episodes, Dragon Ball Super has a low filler percentage of 11%.
The Dragon Ball franchise is one of the most profitable in the history of animation. As a matter of fact, Goku, Vegeta, and Frieza are three of the most recognizable characters in the realm of anime and manga. The famous crew made their return in Dragon Ball Super, which took place six months after the defeat of Majin Buu in the Kid Buu Saga.
DBS boasted a 131-episode run from 2015 to 2018 and the series as a whole was widely successful. Nevertheless, certain chapters have been labeled as better than the rest for one reason or another. Let's take a look at the top 10 Dragon Ball Super episodes according to IMDb's ratings.
Goku is able to control his Ultra Instinct form a little better than before and he can freely exert his energy. Kefla powers up to Super Saiyan 2 and relentlessly attacks him, but he dodges all of her attempts. Sensing how powerful Goku has become, Jiren awakens from his meditation.
Kefla is defeated and the fused Saiyan separates back into Caulifla and Kale. The biggest flaw regarding Ultra Instinct involves attack speed; Master Roshi and Tien agree that Goku needs to master the form before using it again. Goku then collapses as a result of stamina drainage and returns to his base form.
As Goku and Vegeta battle Jiren, Top and Android 17 trade blows until the latter is slightly overpowered. Golden Frieza suddenly interferes to finish Top off himself. The leader of the Pride Troopers then emits a purple aura that signifies the Power of Destruction, which only a God of Destruction is supposed to have.
Top overwhelms Frieza and targets Android 17 with his Justice Flash. However, Frieza returns in his final form and generates a Golden Death Ball that still wasn't enough to take his opponent down. Regardless of the situation at hand, 17 refuses to give up.
Goku is in the midst of a fierce encounter with Fused Zamasu where the latter begins to mutate into a "Half-Corrupted" form. Goku's foot is then crushed, but he utilizes his Kaio-ken to hit his enemy with his free leg. Fused Zamasu is angered by this and the only way he can be bested is if Goku and Vegeta fuse into Vegito.
After turning Super Saiyan Blue, Vegito faces Fused Zamasu in a destructive confrontation that ends in a stalemate. Nonetheless, the two gather their bearings and continue the showdown until Future Trunks appears and helps Vegito finish the job.
Android 17 and Top are still going at it and Frieza maintains his occasional interruptions. Top is hit by a few stray blasts from the fight that's simultaneously occurring between Goku, Vegeta, and Jiren, which causes him to shift his objective. He then decides to pursue Vegeta instead and the pair engages in a massive battle.
Vegeta ultimately wins the fight, but other characters are concerned that he may have used up all his power. The episode concludes with four minutes remaining until the end of the Tournament of Power.
Goku effectively dodges Ribrianne's assaults and kicks her away while in his Super Saiyan Blue form. She incidentally ends up at Jiren's feet, but he ignores her and focuses on Goku. Jiren emits a shockwave that rocks the whole tournament and even Beerus is shaken by the immense power.
The struggle between Goku and Jiren begins and the latter is hardly fazed by the attacks coming his way. Resorting to a Spirit Bomb, Goku asks for energy, which Gohan, Android 17, Android 18, Krillin, Piccolo, Tien, Master Roshi, and Frieze dutifully provide.
Hit can't keep up with Goku despite numerous attempts with Time-Skip, but the struggle wages on. They keep clashing until Hit dodges a Kamehameha and the pair collides, resulting in a huge explosion.
Ultra Instinct Goku confronts Jiren despite the heavy toll it's going to take on his body. Vegeta shouts words of encouragement in Goku's direction, but nothing changes; Goku still can't turn the tide of the battle.
Jiren proceeds with a barrage of blows and appears to have an easy victory on his hands. However, Goku shockingly lands a punch on Jiren and is able to absorb the ki around him. Jiren powers up as well and the two go back and forth as Goku reaches the completed version of Ultra Instinct.
Goku has successfully reached the completed version of Ultra Instinct and he knocks Jiren around for a while until he gets frustrated. This escalates to the point where Jiren unleashes a daunting burst of ki and awakens his hidden power. The sudden explosion of strength helps him regain the upper hand.
Though he was thought to be defeated, Goku perseveres for the sake of his friends. His efforts are commendable, but he finds himself at the brink of elimination anyway. Frieza makes a last-second appearance and changes the outcome of the match.
This is the final episode of the Dragon Ball Super series thus far. With Goku out for the count, Frieza and Android 17 face a noticeably weaker Jiren. Frieza enlists his Golden form, Goku stands up again, and the two work with Android 17 to save Universe 7. The three of them shatter Jiren's wall of energy, so Goku and Frieza combine their power to put an end to the match.
This is where Goku and Jiren exchange blows repeatedly and with various power-ups. Universe 7's Spirit Bomb comes into play here as well, but Jiren pushes it back. Hit, Frieza, Top, and Dyspo also get involved in the struggle. This TV Special marks the moment where Ultra Instinct Goku is awakened.
Dragon Ball Super marked the return of Goku and friends to TV screens in 2015 after a break of 18 years, following the end of Dragon Ball GT in 1997. The series was a smash hit, and saw the introduction of many new forms and abilities for Goku and others, such as Super Saiyan God, and the ultimate technique of the gods, Ultra Instinct.
Of course, as with any series, some episodes will end up being more impactful than others. These are often episodes where major events occur or when long-running battles come to their climax, naturally, but there are also episodes which stand out for the sheer level of comedy on display. The quality of animation at work in each episode can also play a role, as episodes with important story moments often have extra effort placed in their animation to really sell the moment.
The baseball episode of Dragon Ball Super is perhaps the peak of comedy within the series, as it pits Champa's Universe 6 team against Beerus' Universe 7 team, with a few characters like Vegeta shifted around to make the teams even. It's immediately apparent that many of the Z Fighters don't really understand how sports work at all, leading to absurd moments like attacking the ball with Ki blasts and leaving craters in the sports field.
It's a hilarious romp the entire way through, and the episode is a fun twist on the classic baseball episode that so many anime series feature. The episode also gives poor Yamcha a rare chance to shine, as he's the only one who actually gets how baseball works, having become a star player in the time since Dragon Ball Z.
Master Roshi may have seemed an odd choice for the Tournament of Power team, but this episode allowed him to prove that he truly earned his spot. In the episode, Roshi battles against three different members of the Universe 4 team, one of whom is a female alien that preys upon Roshi's weakness for women. However, Roshi is able to control himself for once, and even earns the respect of Beerus for the quality of his fighting and the near-sacrifice he makes for victory.
As a character who was basically sidelined for almost all of Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball Super, many fans of the original Dragon Ball were thrilled to see Master Roshi get a chance to become relevant again, and his contributions were crucial to the team's eventual victory in the Tournament of Power.

This year has already gifted us some pretty great TV shows, but what about great episodes? I'm talking about the kind of episode that makes you laugh nonstop, or stand up and cheer, or force you to such points of emotional devastation you can't think of anything else.
Netflix's 3 Body Problem has more than a few spectacles, from winking stars to the many levels of a way-too-real VR game. But it's episode 5 that takes the cake, or a slice of it at least, thanks to a truly horrifying sequence.
In an endless desert of insipid TV shows aimed at kids, Bluey has proved an oasis for grown-ups. Spirited, silly, and emotionally intelligent, the show's standard seven-minute episodes are a pleasure for audiences of all ages. But show creator Joe Brumm leveled up with the super-sized 28-minute episode "The Sign."
The Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and his bestie Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) travel back to 1813 in Bath, England, just to take in the period appeal of balls and courting. But when a murderous alien shapeshifter is discovered in their midst, the Doctor must team up with a new ally named Rogue (a dashing Jonathan Groff), to save the day. Whovians were thrilled with the intersection of monster-of-the-week fun and Bridgerton drama. But what made this episode the best of a solid season from returning showrunner Russell T Davies is the scorching romance between the Doctor and Rogue. Their enemies-to-lovers arc was swift and satisfying, featuring biting banter, tense misunderstandings, a flashy proposal, a kiss, and a not-so-simple request: "Come find me."
