Funimation is still getting these sets out for fans who don't already own the series uncut or fans who may have purchased their old sets but don't mind double dipping for these well done sets that line up so nicely on the shelf, especially alongside the orange Dragon Ball Z season sets. This 5-disc fifth 'season' set of Dragon Ball will contain the final 31 episodes of the series:
123 Lost and Found
124 Temple Above the Clouds
125 Earth's Guardian Emerges
126 Eternal Dragon Resurrected
127 Quicker Than Lightning
128 Secret of the Woods
129 The Time Room
130 Goku's Doll?
131 Walking Their own Ways
132 Hotter Than Lava
133 Changes
134 Preliminary Peril
135 Battle of Eight
136 Tien Shinhan vs Mercenary Tao
137 Anonymous Proposal
138 The Mysterious Hero
139 Rematch
140 Goku Gains Speed
141 The Four Faces of Tien
142 Kami vs Piccolo
143 Battle for the Future
144 Super Kamehameha
145 Junior no More
146 Goku's Trap
147 Goku Hangs On
148 The Victor
149 Dress in Flames
150 The Fire-Eater
151 Outrageous Octagon
152 Mystery Of The Dark World
153 The End, The Beginning
All these episodes are presented in remastered editions of their original full frame (4:3 Aspect Ratio) format. Audio has English or Japanese voice track options and the original Japanese musical score in 5.1 Surround. As is standard with these sets there will be no special features other than previews for other Funimation products and textless songs, so don't expect to find any here.
These episodes contain many classic Dragon Ball moments. Goku and his friends will face a greater threat in the form of Piccolo Jr, the one we all know from DBZ, and thus Goku will recieve some special training from someone who will become a DBZ permanent fixture. Training his friends will later go through in preparation to fight the Saiyans in DBZ. Everyone will grow a bit older and become young adults, but poor Krillin won't grow much taller. A jaded friend from Goku's past will return to settle a score and make a proclamation and all of this happens at another World Martial Arts Tournament. Which is the final World Martial Arts Tournament in the Dragon Ball storyline and actually the final one for quite some time even in the Dragon Ball Z storyline. The showdown between Goku and Piccolo Jr. takes place and there is something poetic about Goku showing his greatest villain thus far mercy in the end only for him to later in DBZ become one of his closest allies. Even for those who know the outcome the fight is still worth seeing and promises a truly explosive ending.
Finally when all is said and done there are some filler episodes regarding a wedding and one final quest before it can get underway. Goku must face old demons before moving on to his future, a future that you'll have to watch DBZ to see, or to see again for those who already have. Leading to Dragon Ball Z these episodes have more focus on the fighting and showdowns than on the actual dragon ball's themselves but they still have all the interpersonal relationships and fun characters that make Dragon Ball so successful and enjoyable. The final set is a great way to bring a close to the Dragon Ball story and bring us right back to where Dragon Ball Z begins, which is the spot most of us first came to know these wonderful characters in the first place. Thanks for your time.

After I purchase this set I will have the whole Dragon Ball series from Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and Dragon Ball GT. I grew up with Dragon Ball Z and never got to see the Dragon Ball series. I'm 24 now and I still enjoy watching. So far all the Dragon Ball box sets have been great so this one won't let you down. Funimation has been releasing and re-releasing DBZ for 8+ years now. I started out buying the VHS's and then started collecting the single DVD's that came with a box holding case, but never got to finish that collection. Then I starting collecting the orange sets and finally got every episode and soon I will have all the Blue sets too. I can't wait for this set and I will give it all thumbs up and suggest every fan of Goku and his friends to purchase it too.
P.S. The DVD's that came out with 3-4 episodes on them may have been expensive to collect, but I thought they were amazing. I have the Cell saga from the beginning to the saiyaman saga on those DVD's. The menus were great, but I guess they went basic to save money and put more episodes per disc (Blue ray releases are inevitable). It's OK though, as long as I have the episodes I'm good. Just wanted to throw that thought in there.
DRAGON BALL!!!! August 28, 2010

Well let me stat by saying that I'm a fan of Dragon Ball, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Along side having English audio it also has the original Japanese audio and the picture quality is far better on DVD than streaming it online or on TV. Overall it's a great purchase for Dragon Ball fans or anyone alike whom enjoys anime. (*O*) WHOOOO!!!! DRAGON BALL!!!

Anyone who owns or enjoys Dragonball Z, but is not that big a fan of the original series Dragonball should check this out. This is the season where Goku and Krillin grow up and you get to see the Piccolo you know from DBZ for the first time. The fight between Piccolo and Goku in this season is as good as any fight you'd see in Dragonball Z.

You honestly got to love Dragonball! This season is awesome! Love the battle between Goku with his enemy and chichi! Very funny and cool! Love that final battle!
-The thing I love the MOST about DB/Z/GT is that it is like a Christian show!!
Goku is the one who always leads everyone the correct way, He is the savior of the world! (Symbolic to God leading us the right way & being our Savior!)
Goku trains & helps his friends to become good fighters (Symbolic to God "training" us in His Word)
Goku trusts in his friends knowing they will do the right thing. (Symbolic to God trusting that His true followers will obey Him & go His way)
Goku always shows love & mercy even to his enemies & evil people. (Symbolic to God showing all us people, whom have broken His Perfect Law -The Ten Commandments- and yet He still gives us Mercy to flee from sin & follow Him)
Goku believes anyone can change their life from bad, to good. (Symbolic to fleeing from our sins & following the Will of God)
Goku was like a father, always protecting people from evil (Symbolic to how God protects us from evil & when the storms comes, He's still with us)
Everytime it seems hopeless & like evil will prevail & there is no way out, Goku is always there to help! (Symbolic to no matter how strong the temptation or urge is, God always provides a way out for us because He is with us)
When the Saiyans or other fighters feel like there is no hope, they go into a new level of strength (Symbolic to when you are weakest you are strongest)
Like with us when we feel we can't resist the temptation or do the Will of God, we still press on and reach a new level or strength.....haha, like a Spiritual Super Saiyan, being much stronger into & with God then we were before.
When the fighters are fighting & they feel there is no hope, someone else usually comes to the aid (Symbolic to God will never leave us & He always provides help)
DBZ is not only a great show but I look at it through a Christian sense, look at it as a Christian sense, it's symbolic, it'll make it 10x better! I know it did for me!
