Desafío Champions Sendokai - Episode Highlights
Episode Highlights
¡Empieza el Torneo! (The Tournament Begins!)
The team officially enters the Great Sendokai Tournament. Their first match is against Professor Silliw and his team of mind-controlled apes. The episode establishes the stakes of the tournament and showcases the team's growth as they apply their training in a real, high-stakes match for the first time.
This episode marks the true beginning of the heroes' journey. It moves the plot from the training phase into the main conflict and sets the formula for the tournament arc, where each match presents a unique and strange opponent, forcing the team to adapt and strategize.
Cuatro Guerreros Sendokai (Four Sendokai Warriors)
In the Season 1 finale, the team faces the Marshal Zorn in the final battle. When the Marshal destroys their bracelets, the source of their powers, the team must dig deep and use their inner strength and teamwork to win the tournament and save the Earth. Tänpo also makes a crucial sacrifice, saving Lalith from the vortex at the cost of being trapped himself.
This episode is the climax of the first major story arc. It proves that the heroes' power comes from within, not their bracelets, reinforcing the show's core message. Tänpo's sacrifice and the reveal of the villain Sidmodius set the stage for the second season.
Una Nueva Aventura (A New Adventure)
The second season kicks off with monstrous creatures called Yakis invading Earth. The team discovers that Sidmodius survived the fortress's explosion and is behind the attack. They receive new bracelets and travel to the dimension of Masara to stop him, where they are joined by a new warrior, Lon.
This episode effectively reboots the series with a new threat, a new setting (Masara), and a new team dynamic with the introduction of Lon. It expands the lore of the multiverse and raises the stakes beyond the tournament format of the first season.
Traidores (Traitors)
This episode is a major turning point in the series. Lon's jealousy and resentment towards Zak reach a breaking point. Feeling betrayed and unappreciated by the team, he makes a fateful decision to side with the enemy, fully cementing his role as an antagonist.
Rated as one of the best episodes by viewers, it marks the dramatic climax of the rivalry between Zak and Lon. It shatters the team's unity and introduces a powerful, personal antagonist for the remainder of the season, fundamentally changing the show's dynamic.
Algo en Común (Something in Common)
The stunning finale of the second season. After the final battle against Sidmodius, Lon, consumed by his dark emotions, finds the helmet of the Great Zorn and puts it on. He becomes the new Great Zorn, appears on Earth during Zak and Cloe's date, and kidnaps Cloe, promising a new reign of terror.
This episode provides one of the most significant cliffhangers in modern Spanish animation. It resolves the Sidmodius plotline while establishing a far more dangerous and personal villain for the future. Lon's transformation into the Great Zorn completely upends the status quo and sets a dark, emotional tone for the long-awaited third season.
