Suprise Attack! Black Sun
Bellamis realized that her mission was to bury the evil army and took on Prince Gyuma’s army by herself. However, she was bombarded by Prince Gaima and fell on an asteroid. Prince Gaima suddenly appeared before Kugo, who was on a reconnaissance mission. He mistakenly believes that Kugo is his enemy and attacks him without listening to his excuses. Kugo, feeling that there is no way out of this situation, takes advantage of the impending eclipse of the Gilara Sun and launches a surprise attack on the Space Shark!

Translation Thoughts
This episode has a lot of scientific mumbo-jumbo from Jogo that doesn’t necessarily make a lot of sense. So be prepared to read a lot of random scientific stuff. I translated most of them directly, but even in Japanese, it sounds confusing.
At 8:43 Kugo introduces himself to Prince Gaima like this:
俺は宇宙一の暴れん坊ジャンクーゴ様だ
Ore wa uchuu ichi no abarenbou JAN KUUGO-sama da
I’m the most violent kid in the universe, Jan Kugo-sama.
Honestly, this might sound cool in Japanese, but in English, it sounds terrible. Since this is a show for kids, I changed it a little bit to what kids would want to hear about who Jan Kugo is.
At 11:36 Prince Gaima says:
まず貴様から血祭りにあげてやる
Mazu kisama kara chimatsuri ni agete yaru
First of all, I am going to give you a blood festival
The word 血祭り chimatsuri means “blood festival” or “bloodbath”. Now that I think about it, maybe “blood fest” or “bloodbath” would have been better choices for this translation. At the time, all I could come up with was “blood festival”.
space rain. It should help dealing with space fire
“Ore wa uchuu ichi no abarenbou JAN KUUGO-sama da
I’m the most violent kid in the universe, Jan Kugo-sama.
Honestly, this might sound cool in Japanese, but in English, it sounds terrible.”
It might be a nod to something Sun Wukong often says in Journey To The West. Whenever he meets a demon and the demon asks who he is, more often than not, he will say something like that. In fact, he usually says much more, like
“I am the handsome monkey king, the great sage equal to heaven who wrecked the Heaven’s Palace and not even 100.000 heavenly soldiers could stop me …”
So… yeah, what Kugo gave you was basicaly the cliff notes version 🙂
