3.0 out of 5 stars Death Of A Prince
Well, I got this dvd in the mail today. Aside from Funimation's hilarious attempt to put a good quality dvd with their "extras" which aren't even extras and their below average quality dub, the dvd was good, no eyecatchers or intro/endings for each episode yet, but the original version makes up for that, and they do translate perfectly nowadays. The only other...

Vegeta, the most interesting character in Dragon Ball Z, as you may have guessed, dies in this increadible tape. Vegeta was always my favorite character and he still is. Before the video, Vegeta is seen as a careless monster, killing anyone who opposses him. Vegeta realizes he is going to lose, and does not fight back as Frieza ruthlessly beats him. Vegeta is eventually killed by Frieza, but with his dying breath, Vegeta confesses his past. The most emotional scene I have seen in a long time, even in american film, was when Vegeta is crying while he tells Gokou about how Frieza has abused and humiliated him. Tears came to my eyes as the Saiyne prince used his last strength to confess his actions. THis is a truely magnificent video and a must own. THe most beatiful and meaningful episode of Dragon Ball Z to date is in this video. This video shows how death scenes are to be done. If you hate Vegeta or love Vegeta, you need to see this video. One of the last things Vegeta says is "He made me what I am today!" as he is weeping and cluching the sand of Namek's soil. This tape, was authenticly, a masterpiece.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vegeta's last stand......., November 7, 1999
By A Customer
This ,in my opinion, is one of the saddest and greatest videos of Dragon Ball Z! I never really like Vegeta, but after hearing about his relationship with Bulma, I started to like him a lot. Vegeta's death was as sad as Piccolo killing himself also saving Gohan's life. I was so shocked when I heard about Vegeta's past life and when he died, I was in tears! It was as sad as Piccolo's death! Someone said that death isn't romantic, and i agree with that person.

adrianne mares (Perris, California) - See all my reviews
When I saw Vegeta lieing there hanging on by a thread,I cried =( .And when he told Goku about his past,I cried a heck of a lot more than he did!These episodes tell you just how rotton Freiza is.Not to mention that you learn more about Bardock,Goku's brave but crazy father.For all the Vegeta lovers out there,this movie is an absolute must!Maybe you won't laugh or fall in love all over again,but you'll definetly cry your brains out.Yep,it's that sad."sniff sniff"

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best DBZ episodes, February 22, 2000
I think this video was good for a different reason than most people - I agree that the Vegeta death scene was excellent, but what the scene really succeeded in doing was making the viewer despise Frieza. Frieza had just demolished Vegeta, and when the prince was pouring out his sad tale, and began to cry, Frieza smiled and fired a blast through his heart. At that point, most everyone should think of Frieza as being pure evil, and the inevitable fight between Goku and Frieza looks that much better.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Exciting, January 30, 2000
After watching the three episodes in this video, I thought it was one of the best Dragon Ball Z episodes ever. In the first episode, no matter what Vegeta tries to stop Frieza, he can't hit Frieza. Even using this really powerful attack which Frieza blocks with one measley kick. In the second episode, Vegeta is givin a chance to join Frieza but he refuses. Because of that, Vegeta gets a serious beating. Also, Goku arrives on the scene fully healed just in time to hear about Vegeta's past life and why he grew up to be a violent person. Sadly, Goku also sees Vegeta die and does a proper burial for him. In the third episode, Goku fights Frieza but not without the consequences. Frieza aims a puple eye blast towards Namek turning it onto a lava land. Goku avoids almost every move Frieza throws at him and Goku even hits Frieza in the first part of the battle. I thought this was a great video but it had its boring scenes.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is one of the sad parts on DBZ, May 27, 2002
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Dragon Ball Z - Frieza - Death of a Prince (DVD)
I thought vegeta was always cold hearted..and yet i thought wrong. I found that out when i saw vegeta fight for all he can, and then die. While he was crying I was crying at the same time. I knew vegeta wasn't cold hearted at all. I like vegeta a lot now, but he needs to not be so mean a lot of the times. He may be a prince, but he is still a kind guy inside. This is a great DVD to get, and sad at the same time. Please respect all DBZ fans and watch it. You don't have to and that is your choice, but this is a DBZ episode you'll never forget.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic DBZ Moments, April 26, 2000
I think some of the series' best and most moving scenes arise in this one volume, mostly surrounding Vegeta's failure to reach the Super Sayain level and his death at the hands of Frieza.

I love this series, no doubt the greatest animated epic to ever be concieved, but at times it can lack in character depth during crucial and critical situations. However, I think Vegeta's stirring words as his life fled from him, Goku's reaction to his relative's death, and Frieza's contempt for the pair are crafted superbly. No doubt, in my mind, this volume contains some of the most astounding moments in the series and really gives us insight to the characters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Any true Dragon Ball fan must own this episode., October 19, 1999
By A Customer
Prince Vegeta, heir to the crown of the murdered King Vegeta, of the the planet Vegeta, finally meets his demise at the hands of Frieza. It is a suprisingly emotional episode to watch. Vegeta finally realizes that he is not a Super Saiya-jin but only as Frieza beats him down to a defenseless lump. Son Gokou arrives in time to see Prince Vegeta convinced that Frieza will finally be beaten by the people he most fears. The plot thickens as Prince Vegeta is mortally wounded by Frieza. Vegeta then confesses an emotional past that only brings Son Gokou closer to his Saiya-jin race. The death of Prince Vegeta is actually very touching as his tears dry on the Namekian soil and Son Gokou realizes that he is the last remaining Saiya-jin. A very action packed and drama filled episode with the direction and art, along with the voice characterizations, masterfully done and fit for the Death of a Prince

5.0 out of 5 stars So Good, September 1, 2002
A Kid's Review
Before I thought this show was so stupid! I sometimes saw this show in stores and I'd think "Is that dandruff flying from their hair. But after this episode, my mind changed entirely. I felt like I wanted to cry when I saw the tears rolling down Vegeta's eyes. I felt so emotional! I had not felt this way in so long. This is a touching scene that must be watched if you like Dragonball Z or not.
