If you were able to watch Dragon Ball Super's latest episodes on Crunchyroll, then you will want to check out which version of the special you watched again. Fans have noticed two scenes from the much-anticipated special were not included in Crunchyroll's episodic version of the special.

Over on Reddit, fans began to point out the inconsistencies between Crunchyroll's split broadcast of the Dragon Ball Super special and the raw video from Fuji TV. When the two were compared, fans saw that two scenes were missing from Crunchyroll's version.

As you can see below, one fan on Twitter compared the two versions to show the difference. In one of the missing scenes, fans are shown Goku and Jiren fighting over the massive Spirit Bomb stuck between them. Crunchyroll's episodic version only shows the pair in a tug of war, but the raw episode cuts to Zeno and the Grand Priest. The latter is shown putting a shield up in front of the Omni-Kings to protect them from any debris, and then Universe 7's other fighters are shown reacting to Goku's battle.

Gohan and Piccolo can be seen staring in shock at the scene. Android 18 goes so far as to even say "yikes," over the ordeal, and Freeza notes the pair are going a "little overboard."

As for Vegeta, he simply gets frustrated. The Saiyan wonders aloud, "What are you doing, Kakarot?! Push it back!"

In the second missing scene, Dragon Ball Super's Fuji TV footage shows more of Goku and Jiren's battle of the Spirit Bomb. There is no dialogue with the video, but it does give fans a better look at how Jiren did struggle to toss Goku's attack back in his face.

So far, it only appears that Crunchyroll has the altered episodic version; Funimation does house the full Dragon Ball Super special with both missing scenes in tact; VRV also has the full-length cut rather than the edited episodic version. Crunchyroll's two-part cut of the special seems to be an alternate version of the anime's latest release which may have come straight from Fuji TV. Crunchyroll isn't known to edit episodes, and simulcasts are often delivered to studios abroad for subtitling purposes only.

Dragon Ball Super airs on Crunchyroll Saturdays at 7:15 p.m. CST. Toonami also airs the English dub on Adult Swim Saturdays at 11:30 p.m.
