![Dragon Ball Z - Complete Series Collectors Box Set [Exclusive Limited Edition DVD]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qdARz3D6L._AC_UL140_SR140,140_.jpg)
When I started watching the first couple of episodes I thought "Wow! This is a great season to have". They differently went above and beyond with this season. Season 9 is a perfect 50/50 balance of humour and action.
There was an intense moment where the mad man shot Mr. Satan and where Majin Buu was expelling all of the evil inside of him. The fight between the good and evil Majin Buu was great and the good Buu got a taste of his own medicine by turning himself into a piece of chocolate, thanks to the efforts of the evil Buu.
Piccolo also did a great job by being the leader, in the absence of Goku, Gohan & Vegeta.
One thing that is difference about this season is that all of Goku's friends and family die at the hands of the evil Majin Buu. Like Ox King, Chi Chi, Mr Popo, Master Roshi etc who have played minor parts throughout the Dragonball and Dragonball Z but have appeared constantly.
This is also the first time that a DBZ villain has managed to kill the entire Earth's population and blows up planet Earth.
The fight between Gotenks and Super Buu was funny and action packed at the same time. I liked the different arsenal of attacks that Gotenks used on Buu. They had so many different ones with interesting names as well.
I suppose the reason why Piccolo was in shock at the Lookout being destroyed is because Kami is apart of Piccolo, and Kami use to be the guardian so he also didn't like when the Lookout is destroyed, especially when Garlic Jnr first appeared to Kami in Season 4.
It is great to see that the Old Kai gave up his life so Goku could return to Earth. For a while I thought Goku was happy being dead and never wanting to be wished back to life so he can see his family and friends again.
When Dende was healing Gohan, and then Super Buu wanted to kill Dende after seeing his ability to heal, I thought back to Season 3 (Freiza Saga) and the reason why Frieza killed Dende is because he saw Dende heal Piccolo and so Dende could have died a second time for the same reason he did the first (Super villain sees Dende heal a Z fighter and so Super villain must kill Dende).
Goku should have imagined what he would look like if he fused with Mr Satan's dog (just for fun). It is great to see Videl, Chi Chi and Bulma have caught up with Dabura in heaven and that Dabura has changed completely from the King of the Demons to a happy, loyal and loving spirit.
My favourite Vegito episodes are `Vegito...Downsized' and `Incredible Fighting Candy'. The reasons why I liked these two and not the first two `Meet Vegito' and `Rip in the Universe' are because they were more fast and interesting in terms of action. I liked `Incredible Fighting Candy' episode because even when Vegito is turned into a piece of candy he still manages to fight Buu in a comical and interesting way. Another great moment is where Goku & Vegeta travel inside Buu's body and fight the thought forms of Gohan, Piccolo and Gotenks. There is an intense moment where kid Buu destroys the Earth and Goku & Vegeta are running to escape it the energy ball. It is sad to see that Gohan, Piccolo, Trunks and Goten die in the explosion of planet Earth. I would have liked to see Gohan survive because he was alive for the large part of DBZ. It would have been great to see Gohan, to be the only Z-fighter that has not died throughout the entire series. Also Tien and Chiaotzu would have died in the explosion as well.
Goku's fight with kid Buu was fast paced and the attacks were brutal.
I like it when they show Hell in Other world, with bad guys such as Cell, Doctor Gero, Babidi, King Cold, Frieza, Appule and the 4 members of the Ginyu Force. I would have liked to have seen Nappa and Raditz talking about Vegeta and Goku since they both had some connection to them both. Also since Captain Ginyu the frog died in the explosion of planet Earth, I would have liked to see him return to his original body and meet up with the other members of the Ginyu Force.
Vegeta's fight with kid Buu, showed he could really push his own limits and go beyond them.
The fight between kid Buu and the fat Buu was comical & fun. One part is where the good Buu spits into 4 entities and pounds the hell out of kid Buu.
It is great to see past characters, which don't play much of a part but still are around. Like the ones they showed: Upa & Bora, Android 17, Suno & Eighter (Android 8), Devilman and Nam. It really did make me happy when the people of the world giving up their energy in an effort to defeat Buu once and for all. What a great episode, to end off Dragonball Z.Another character they should have added is Launch. She should have been robbing a bank and points her gun at the hostages and they raise up their hands.
The fight with Goku and Uub at the Martial Arts Tournament was electrifying. They should have made a movie between the 7-year gap of the end of DBZ and the beginning of GT with Goku training Uub.
On the front cover, which has Super Vegito, I would have put one of the evil forms of Majin Buu, because like Season 3(Frieza) and Season 5(Perfect Cell) they have had the main bad guy on the front cover. Vegito only appeared in 4 episodes and so there aren't enough grounds for him to appear on the last season of Dragonball Z.
If I had the power to change who gets to be on the front covers they will be: Season 1(Goku),Season 2 (Vegeta),Season 3(Frieza),Season 4(Krillin),Season 5(Piccolo),Season 6(Perfect Cell),Season 7(Great Saiyaman Gohan),Season 8 (Majin Vegeta or SS3 Goku) and Season 9 (Any one of the evil forms of Majin Buu)
When I look at the entire story for Dragonball Z, I wouldn't change it. The things that have happened, happen for a reason.
For example:
* If Goku hadn't sacrificed himself to rid the world from Raditz, he would have never trained with King Kai and learned the Spirit Bomb and Kaioken Attack technique, which he has used throughout DBZ to vanquish enemies such as Turles, Lord Slug, Super Android 13, Doctor Wheelo and kid Buu (Goku did use the Spirit Bomb against Vegeta and Frieza but they survived it).
* If Piccolo hadn't told Raditz about the dragonballs, Vegeta and Nappa would have never come to Earth.
* If Nappa hadn't killed Piccolo, Bulma, Krillin and Gohan would never have gone to Planet Namek to revive their fallen friends.
* And on planet Namek, a lot of Freiza's men were killed thanks to the local Nameks and Vegeta (who was spared by Krillin by Goku's plea)
* If Frieza hadn't killed Krillin, Goku would never have transformed into a Super Sayian.
* If Goku hadn't died a second time, during the Cell Games saga, Goku wouldn't have trained in Other World and attained levels Super Sayian 2 and 3.
Out of the 9 seasons for DBZ, I actually like watching seasons 2,3,5,6,8 and 9. It doesn't mean I hate watching seasons 1,4 and 7. It just means from the beginning of one season to the end, it just has a lot more exciting scenes in it than seasons 1,4 and 7. In seasons 1,4 and 7 there are a few episodes which are a bit slow or I hate to say this `boring'.
And that's it, for my review!

This dragon ball z season 9 blu ray steelbook is missing the other special features such as interviews with Josh Martin and Chris Yeager, and celebrities celebrating 30th anniversary of dragonball z. The Amazon website said it has those special features but all it has are the text less opening and closing songs. Is there a right season 9 blu steelbook has those special features? Please let me know as soon as possible.
