* The example of ImpossibleTaskInstantlyAccomplished is an in-universe Awesome Moment, and a meta one compared to canon. Goku learned a WaveMotionGun technique in seconds what took OldMaster Roshi fifty years to develop and perfect. What makes this awesome compared to canon is that canon!Goku could only make a small beam that would fit into his hands, while [=PtP=]!Goku managed to perfectly recreate the humongous beam that Roshi had used on his first try.

* The entire climax is one. First, Black has Goku on the ropes with his HumongousMecha, until Android #8 comes out of nowhere to save his friend. Although he valiantly struggles, he's ultimately no match for Black and is crushed to pieces. Witnessing 8's noble sacrifice, Goku [[ManlyTears starts crying]] and promptly ''explodes with rage'' in one of the most spectacular power-ups in the series' history, as the earth ''literally shatters around him''. Cue one colossal Kamehameha that sends Black straight to [=HFIL=].

* On the subject of the above power-up, there's something oddly familiar about this scenario: a Saiyan child is enraged by witnessing a kindhearted android lose his life for the greater good, and gains a boost in power to annihilate the one responsible. This mirrors [[LikeFatherLikeSon Gohan going Super Saiyan 2 against Cell in retaliation for Android #16's death]]. Talk about the mother of all {{Call Forward}}s.
