Product Description Seven years after Cell’s defeat, life on Earth has returned to normal. But now, the time has come for a new World Martial Arts Tournament. Goku returns from Other World to challenge Mr. Satan for his title —and to guard against the arrival of a new evil! .com The eighth and penultimate season of Dragon Ball Z pits the Z Fighters, the Supreme Kai, and his attendant Kibito against the evil wizard Babidi, who hopes to release the monster Buu, which his father Bibidi created. (The names are apparently a back-handed salute to Walt Disney's Cinderella.) Goku, who's technically dead but still visting from the Other World, joins Vegeta and Gohan in the initial fights against Babidi's minions. As the battles escalate, Babidi use Vegeta's overweening pride to entrap the Saiyan Prince and turn him against his allies. It's all Goku can do to win Vegeta back, and the energy loosed in their stand-off enables Babidi to free Buu. Instead of one of the over-muscled behemoths the Z Fighters usually tackle, Buu is an obnoxious, infantile creature who looks like a sumo wrestler molded out of pink marshmallows. But he's incredibly powerful and resilient: even the Saiyans can't defeat him. Goku realizes only one warrior can destroy Buu: Goten and Trunks in their Super-Saiyan forms must fuse to form an über-hero. The boys initially balk, as the Dance of Fusion looks and feels silly. But Gohan and Picollo whip them into shape and the formidable Gotenks appears. Season 8 offers much more action and excitement than the World Tournament story that takes up most of Season 7. But unlike the earlier DBZ adventures, the Babidi & Majin Buu Sagas end on a cliffhanger, with the fate of the Earth and its inhabitants hanging in the balance.

A Very Heavy Chapter (Pt. 8 of 9)
You have been patient so now it is time for the Z Gang to get back into action! After a crazy mishap at the World Martial Arts Tournament, Goku and the gang end up joining forces with the most powerful being in the universe. He is here on a mission to destroy a horrible creature that has been dormant under the Earth for a million years. His name is Majin Buu and although he looks like a big pink ball and acts like an infant, he is heartless and lethal. Goku and his friends will face a force like never before and it's not going to be easy to survive.This chapter of the DBZ saga is probably the most emotional. It is probably the most well written out of all the sagas in DBZ. This season how ever is not for the faint hearted. The characters while they may be strong, will suffer through a lot of loss due to the death of loved ones. Though it maybe the darkest chapter, there is a lot of new and incredible things to experience. This season gives us the long awaited rematch between Goku and Vegeta. This time they are both super charged and ready to rumble like never before. The creation of Gotenks from the legendary fusion dance is introduced to us as well. Probably the best treat of them all is watching Goku possibly reaching his limits as he powers up to Super Saiyan 3!Still, with all these incredible new plateaus our heroes have reached, will it still be enough to take down Majin Buu and save the world?! With one season left to go in this legendary show we will soon find out.

This is what you're looking for.
The action-packed Eighth Season of DBZ, finishing up at episode 253. My personal favorite saga of DBZ full of memorable characters and storylines. Some of the best fights happen in the Majin Buu Saga, period.For casual fans, this is an absolutely perfect buy. If you are a hardcore fan, this is NOT the definitive edition of DBZ. This is the best purchase you can make that isn't $500.The Blu Rays:PROS:- Are saturated a bit more to add a more modern aesthetic.- Look gorgeous remastered, almost like a painting- Include worthwhile commentaries- Include both Japanese and English music and languageCONS:- A small portion of the top and bottom is cropped to fit modern widescreen tv's- The saturation might not be as appealing to some- Good release, but not the definitive edition many hardcore fans long forIf you're looking to buy this for a relative/grandson etc. buy THESE, the Blu Rays, rather than the Orange Bricks. Do NOT waste your money on those. Here's why:- The orange bricks crop out an incredibly noticeable amount from the top and bottom of the screen- The remaster job is passable at best, at times very poor- The colors are incredibly over saturatedI hope this helps. If not, just find the dragonballs.
