4.0 out of 5 stars Doom, October 5, 2000

By	Ryan Kirkpatrick (Janesville, WI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Goku trains with Gregory in this DVD, a grasshopper with an attitude, and learns two major attacks, the Kaio-Ken, and the unstoppable Spirit Bomb. Goku also learns more about his past, as the Saiyans finally make it to earth. They meet up with the Z fighters as Goku races back to earth to help his friends. Although action wise this isn't the best DBZ, it really gets the plot moving and shows how Goku learns his two attacks. This DVD is a necessity, although not a lot of fighting the plot helps. If you've bought the four before this one, then you don't need my review to know it is going to be good.

1.0 out of 5 stars Boy what a rip off, April 29, 2000

By	Chad Harelson (USA) - See all my reviews

Listen, people might think this is dragon ball z but this is not dragon ball z. This is a bunch of edited bull-crap, completely slaughtered by funimation. Trust me, i'm a true dragon ball z fan, and this is no kid show.

1.0 out of 5 stars Only buy every Third DVD, May 20, 2000

By	Evan Gelion (South Africa) - See all my reviews

DBZ is a big waste of time, because every episode is a 2 minute story stretched to 30minutes. If you REALLY need to watch this, its on Cartoon network for free in the afternoon. So don't waste your money on DBZ. Buy Evangelion: Neon Genesis.
