4.0 out of 5 stars Some fun antics, but not so much action, November 11, 2001

By	"madnessmark" (Maple Grove, MN) - See all my reviews

So Goku, Vegita and Gohan are once again in a situation to save the Earth. But what is to become of the tournament and the hot headed fans?

Content: B
Animation: B+
Music: B+ (sub) C+ (dub)
Dubbed Version: B-
Subtitled Version: B+
Fight Scenes: B

The last disc was great featuring the battle inside Babidi's ship. However, that action takes a back seat in this disc. You do get to see Goku show his strength against a big ugly, but thats about it. The main plot focuses on the Tenkachi Tournament. The only REAL fighting you get is between 18 and Goten and Trunks, disguised as Mighty Mask. It was pretty fun watching Goten and Trunks switch places each time and display their ENORMOUS strength.

Still, 18 discovers their little game and I don't want to spoil what happens, but lets just say they both get into a lot of trouble. Mister Satan is going to have his hands full when he squares off against 18.

The Japanese version is way better featuring 18's smooth voice and Goten's Gohan-esque voice. The dub version does some justice, but not a lot to the action. There are some great moments of rock for the fight scenes, but there is come childish music for Goten and Trunks. Overall, not a highlight of DBZ, but a worthy disc to add to any collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Episodes on this DVD, September 4, 2001

By	"lady_kodami" (Daishén) - See all my reviews

Next Up, Goku - Babidi unleashes the monster Yakon to crush Goku and steal his power for Majin Buu. Goku's hands are full as he battles the wizard's black magic and Yakon the energy eating beast at the same time. Can Goku beat the odds and Yakon too?

Battle Supreme - In the ship's Meditation Room, Dabura prepares for battle against Gohan. The five remaining contestants at the tournament start a "Battle Royale". Jewel and Kiela are quickly defeated, leaving Mr. Satan, 18, and Mighty Mask.

Eighteen Unmasks - Mighty Mask and 18 take to the air. After an intense fight, 18 realizes it's Goten and Trunks and separates them with an energy blast. Trunks and Goten are disqualified, leaving the championship between Hercule and 18. Dabura has finished his preparation.

Oooh.....why do I have to wait til October to buy? ^_^
