i remember when i used to care about dbz

i don't completely hate the show, but i do find it pretty dull...dragon ball was way better because it was less action and more comedy, the way it should've been

I have to say that this show is pretty cool. i watched it as a child, still not even close to where i was when i watched it as a kid. i can't imagine how long it'll take if i wish to watch them all

season 1 has 39 episodes, each 22 minutes long.

Actually the reason I wanted to watch it so bad was to see the episode where hell breaks lose and all the guys they ever fought come back

And little goku beat both Cell and Freiza's ass. wtf.

Idk, but it was pretty cool.

I used to love DBZ then I noticed how much pointless shit was shoved into the anime and read most of the manga.

No but I am, everything Kaz said was correct.

The coolest episode was the one where Vegeta and whats his name go to the planet with the insects, Arlia, and destroy the "evil" insects while the good ones stay alive and they're grateful that Vegeta destroyed the bad guys.

As Vegeta leaves he ends up destroying the whole planet killing the remaining good guys.

the 2nd.

the dvds are REALLY cheap for what you get. $30 for 40 episodes for season 1. thats a great deal. and of course thats the normal price, probably find it cheaper.

-FINALLY, DRAGON BALL Z AT A DECENT PRICE! It took FUNimation long enough on this one. The whole "twenty-five bucks for three episodes" thing had gotten on my nerves long enough. My hat goes off to FUNimation for finally following the example of companies who release the American TV show DVD sets, and offering them at a price any fan can afford.

-REMASTERED PICTURE QUALITY. As far as what can be seen on the screen goes, the picture has never looked sharper. FUNimation remastered the picture quality from the original film prints, and it looks stunning (the whole "widescreen" issue is not forgotten, I'll cover that in the "THE BAD" section of my review.)

-THE BOOKLET IS A NICE ADDITION. The character profiles are great, definitely for fans who are just getting into the series and need a more elaborate idea of what the characters are like. It's nice to have a brief summary of what happens in each episode, and I found the "History of Dragon Ball Z in America" feature of the book to be quite interesting.

-OVER NINE HUNDRED MINUTES OF DBZ! For the low price, this is a hell of a deal, and it definitely beats buying the series separately if you haven't already started doing that.

-TWO DIFFERENT "PLAY ALL" MODES - STANDARD AND MARATHON. If you absolutely must watch every episode from start to finish, starting/ending credits and all, the standard play all mode works well. But if you just want to watch the episodes and nothing else (uninterrupted by credits and the like), the marathon mode cuts them out so you can watch episodes only. An awesome feature I wish more TV shows on DVD have.

-FINALLY, EYECATCHERS! The eyecatchers (which are the "we'll be right back" messages that were shown on TV with the shows before and after the commercial breaks) have FINALLY been included in a FUNimation release of the series! About time! I'd been pissed off for years that FUNimation put these on their original DB and DBGT DVDs and not the Z ones, but they've redeemed themselves.


This review off of Amazon is tempting me to press the "Add To Shopping Cart" button.

Yeah I use to watch this when I was younger, I also watched a good amount of the original Dragonball, and maybe 5 episodes of GT.

When I first watched the show, it was during the Frieza saga, I always thought that Frieza was a girl.
