Editorial Review:
The second season of the wildly popular Dragon Ball Z comprises the "Namek" and "Captain Ginyu" sagas. Gohan, Krillin, and Bulma travel to the planet Namek to find an even more powerful set of Dragon Balls that can restore the lives of Tenshinhan, Yamucha, Chaozu and Piccolo, who were killed by Vegeta during the first season. (Their souls continue to train with King Kai in the Other World.) All is not well on Namek: the arch-villain Frieza, who looks and sounds a bit like Truman Capote, also desires the Dragon Balls. If he uses them to obtain eternal life, he'll rule the universe forever. With a cadre of lieutenants that includes Vegeta, he slaughters the Namekians to gain the supernatural orbs. After his injuries have been healed by a magic senzu bean, Goku heads to Namek. En route, he trains at 100 gravities, raising his powers enormously. Vegeta believes Goku may be the legendary Super Saiyan that appears once a millennium--except he lacks the requisite love of battle. This version of Goku is less aggressive, and he uncharacteristically uses his brain (never his greatest asset) to defeat Ginyu, Frieza's second-in-command. Unlike Season 1--Vegeta Saga, Season 2ends on a cliff-hanger. Skeptics may find Goku's adventures needlessly protracted, over the top, and even silly. But for millions of boys, they provide the special blend of comradeship, martial arts training, and take-no-prisoners battles they love. The newly remastered edition includes the original Japanese dialogue for the first time. (Rated TV PG. suitable for ages 8 and older: violence, minor risqué humor, brief nudity, tobacco and alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
In the version that is shown on YTV in Canada the story begins mid-way through the Dragon Ball Z series. Raditz Gokuus brother has traveled to Earth to find out why Gokuu has not yet destroyed the planet as he was supposed to do. But while as a baby Gokuu was dropped (down a huge cliff) and forgot his real mission. Kakarot Gokuus real name battles his brother Raditzs along with former enemy Piccolo and friend Kurilin. Meanwhile Gohan; Gokuus son reveals his hidden powers against Raditz and nearly kills Raditz. However Gokuu is killed in the end but Raditz is eventually defeated by Piccolo. Before he dies he tells them that two evil-saiyans even more powerful then he is are on route to Earth. The remaining fighters Kurilin Yamcha Tein and Chatsu begin their training to battle the evil saiyans while Piccolo takes off with Gohan to train him in using his new found power. Meanwhile Gokuu has to make his way back on Snake Way to King Kais where he trains himself in the secret art of Kaoken. Can Gokuu make it back in time to help his friends? Watch and find out!Run Time: 835 minutesFormat: DVD Genre: ANIMATION/ADULT SWIM Rating: PG UPC: 704400022449 Manufacturer No: 1-4210-0006-7

Rating:  - Another excellent season set
Dragon Ball Z is the one greatest anime series ever created. With its action-packed universe and compelling storylines, Akira Toriyama's magnum opus has never failed to please. This is the second season set FUNimation has released of the series.
This set picks up where the last one left off. Many warriors died in the battle against the Saiyan elites, Nappa and Vegeta. Bulma, Krillin, and Gohan set out on a quest to the planet Namek, where the Dragon Balls were created - so that they ... Read More
Rating:  - Season II
Well this is a great addition to a DBZ fan's collection. On the single DVD's they had a really cool song that was replaced by the original Japanese start song, which is worse in my opinion. I have also heard some reviewers saying something about widescreen black bars, but on mine you could resize it so the video takes up 90% of the screen and the bars take up 10%. Also while the "next time on DBZ" is missing", nothing else is, so unless your a die-hard collector, this shouldnt matter much as it was ... Read More
Rating: - DragonBall Z better then i imagend
What can i say about this that many others have said, well i do say that some of the voices aren't what i remember from watching them on TV but i do love that theses seasons are uncut, cause from some of the sences that were'nt on the TV are on theses DVDs which is way cool.
Also i would of relay loved to have had the orignial Theme they had on the Cartoon network version (Rock the Dragon) but this one not bad.
Overall I would gladly recomend this and the ohters to any Dragonball ... Read More

I receive my item ahead of time, which is great and it come in perfect condition.
Rating: - Continuation of greatness
Just like Season 1 box, this is great. There are a couple (non-important) scenes where cropping is noticeable, but hardly worth complaining about. If you're a DBZ fan who appreciated the first set, this set is worth adding to your collection.
