Product Description
Episode 121 - No Match for the Androids
In an earthshaking battle, the beautiful Android 18 brings Vegeta to his knees. But before she can deliver the final blow, Trunks steps in to help. Soon an all out war between good and evil begins, with the androids gaining the upper hand. Now the unhindered androids set their sights on the ultimate prize-Goku!

Episode 122 - Last Ditch Effort
Struggling to recover from their fight with the androids, Vegeta, Trunks, Tien and Piccolo realize a grim truth: unless they can increase their powers quickly, they have no chance against the android trio. In a drastic move, Piccolo flies to Kami's place high above the earth and makes a most unexpected proposal...

Episode 123 - Closing In
The evil androids hit the road in hot pursuit of Goku but are delayed by some hyperactive hoodlums. Krillin and Trunks race to move Goku to a safer hiding place, while up in the clouds Kami wrestles with Piccolo's difficult offer. Everyone is scheming of ways to stop the androids, but will any of them work?

Episode 124 - Unwelcome Discovery
With the androids close behind, the Z-fighters retreat to Master Roshi's house to plan their next move. And with Goku still in poor health, their list of options is short. Bulma makes a disquieting discovery - the wreckage of a second time capsule! Where did it come from, and more importantly, who was in it?

5.0 out of 5 stars This is one you must see in Japanese, October 22, 2001

By	M. Garza "Artema" (Colorado Springs, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This DVD contains a very cool scene with Goku going Super Saiya-jin in front of the two androids; I watch just this clip frequently. And, of course, this is where Vegeta first goes Super Saiya-jin himself, after 4.5 years of training in up to 450 times earth's gravity he achieves the goal he set, passing Goku in strength. Watching it in Japanese is worth the cost of the DVD.

I have been collecting the DBZ tapes since the legal copies were made available. I have recently switched to collecting them in DVD format, and while converting my current tapes to DVD would cost too much, there are some key DVDs you must have whether you collect tapes, DVDs, or are just a Toonami fan. I would include on this list, Androids Invasion, Super Saiyan Goku, the two with Piccolo's fight with #17, and the one with Gohan going Super Saiya-jin level 2 (seeing that in Japanese is amazing). The list should be bigger, but I still have not seen the entire series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Movie, June 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: DragonBall Z - Android - Invasion (Edited) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This movie is great. It starts out when the Androids appear and begin wrecking the city like Trunks said. Yamcha is held at Android 20's mercy before all the other Z fighters show up to help. At the end of the movie, shockingly Vegeta ends up turning into a Super Saiyan. All out this is one of the best movies yet.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Androids are Here!, April 3, 2002

By	Adam (Overland Park, KS USA) - See all my reviews

This 4-episode DVD is about the Androids arriving, but a few things are off about what Trunks said. Goku turns Super Saiyan and fights 19, but the heart virus kicks in and then Vegeta as a Super Saiyan takes over! You don't get to see Vegeta do anything though, that's on the next DVD. There are a few parts in this DVD that are tedius to sit through and you'll probably skip these parts after seeing them the first time. The first part is when Master Roshi is explaining to Marin who Dr. Gero is and why the androids were made and you are shown a flashback of Goku defeating the Red Ribbon Army back in Dragonball. Another Part that might get boring after the first time seeing it is when Vegeta explains how he became a super saiyan. The menu system is exactly the same throughout the Androids Saga and the extras aren't very good. I definitely reccomend this DVD!
