Learn how to complete 'The Captain's Comeback' substory in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot. This guide covers finding Captain Ginyu and defeating him as Vegeta.

Alright, so you're looking to tackle 'The Captain's Comeback' substory in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot? This one's a bit unique because it involves bringing a familiar face back from a rather… amphibian state. You'll need to be playing as Vegeta for this, and it pops up in the Southeast Islands Area. Basically, Vegeta's looking for a sparring buddy, and Bulma suggests Captain Ginyu. Problem is, he's still a frog after that whole Namek incident. So, the plan is to use the Dragon Balls to get him back to normal!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you need to gather all seven Dragon Balls. If they're not active right now, you'll have to wait for them to respawn.
  2. 2
    Once you've got all seven, head into your menu and make the wish to restore Ginyu to his original form.
  3. 3
    After the wish is granted, a new marker will appear on your map in the West Area. Head over there and talk to him to kick off the fight.
Tips
  • Captain Ginyu isn't too aggressive in this fight, so you can generally keep your cool.
  • Watch out for his 'Milky Cannon' – it's a quick Ki blast, but pretty easy to sidestep.
  • His 'Cross Chop' is a melee combo. He'll do two quick hits, followed by a third, X-shaped one that knocks you down. Make sure to dodge all three!
  • Don't worry too much about Ginyu's difficulty; with Vegeta's current power level, he should go down pretty fast.
  • 238,963 EXP
  • D Medal (x2)
  • Improved Scouter (x1)
  • Captain Ginyu’s Soul Emblem
