Episode 17: The Return of Uub (Ep. 32 in Japan)

Episode 18: The Tail's Tale (Ep. 33 in Japan)

Episode 19: Back in the Game (Ep. 34 in Japan)

This DVD features Goku becoming SSJ 4. Also Baby using Vegitas body to make him mad strong which gives Goku something to be reckoned with. If you just wanna see action in the Baby Saga, this is the one to see because Baby and Goku lots of crazy moves like Revenge Death Bomb x10 and 10x kamehameha. Well at least thats what it was in the japanese version. I'm a little nervous of how the english voices would sound in this show. I never heard them before in english and probably are terrible like most of the Dragonball series voices. I prefer the japanese version of any show because you know what they are really saying not what funimation wants them to say. I do really reccomend this dvd if your a fan of the english version of Dragonball/Z/GT. If you like Japanese better, just buy the japanese version on ebay, you'd get it cheaper and get it all on one dvd or cd.

it starts with uub saving pan. then elder kai and kibito kai pull goku's tail out while uub fuses with majin buu. uub is supposedly defeated. goku becomes gold oozaru, and then, ultimately goes ssj 4 in this dvd.

This is a great DVD. On this disc, the struggle against Baby heightens to a new level, as in his clutches is Pan! But then, as the front cover suggests, Uub comes to the rescue. I don't wanna spoil the fight, but will Uub's training with Goku pay off? Will he take over from Goku as the savior of the universe?

The dubbing is excellent on this disc, with Baby, Uub, Goku, and all the others with fantastic voices. I, not being a fan of the Japanese version, haven't watched that yet. Over here in the UK, DBGT airs, but the voices are terrible and the picture quality is awful. But the picture quality on this DVD has been brightened up, and the voice cast is great.

I really recommend this disc to you, but if you are just starting your DBGT collection, you should buy Affliction. But this is a fine DVD.

It's amazing how Goku went SS4 in this DVD and it's more amazing to hear the adult voice of Goku because the kid voice was getting on my last nerve. Anyways, with Majuub absorbed by Baby Vegeta, Goku steps in to pick up where he left off. And whoever said that it was horribly edited by FUNimation is one true jackass to think that. By Goku becoming a SS4, does he have what it takes to put Baby to rest? Stay tuned to 2 more releases in October: Annihilation & Salvation and in December: Calculations & Revelations.

I have seen the pre-release of the first few english dubbed versions of GT and I must say that it is a breath of fresh air. The original Japanese version sticks to Anime roots where the men sound like little girls when they scream and the voices become monotonus after a while. The 60's godzilla music did not help the Japanese version as well.

If you're into Anime and that type of voices in your Dragonball experience, then you have the ability to hear it in the DVD. If you're like me, who enjoy their Dragonball characters sounding real, tough and believable and who enjoys modern music that actually compliments the scenes instead of detracts from it, then you'll love the english dubbed version.

It all depends on what you are into. I'm not into Anime, but I am into Dragonball Z. That's why I prefer the superior dubbing of the English version over its not-so-good predecessor

...

People who watch the Cartoon Network version of Dragonball Z and other editied versions of original Japanese anime will probably enjoy this as well, considering it more tightly edited and dubbed to thier preferance. Of course it ruins the whole flow of the story, but it seems that doesn't matter anymore. Pity.

Too bad all that does is pander to our desire to have things 'simplified' for us. This series had enough problems of its own (original creator wasn't involved, the first storyarc was considered by audiences a poor return to 'Dragon Ball' days so they switched to fight-intensive DBZ style) without being trimmed and repackaged for American audiences to digest.


About the only thing left to add is if you have seen the original Japanese series on VCD you may want to steer clear of this, as the editing and the soundtrack make it so you can't enjoy it..
