Hey I'd like to take this time to talk about one of my favorite animes, Dragon Ball Z. This show has captivated me ever since I first saw it when I was ten years old. The show is really action packed. If you havent seen it yet, then i suggest you do. Im going to run through the saga quickly and give you some of my favoirite moments that I can remember from each saga. I am going to try not to include spoilers but sometimes you have to.
Saiyan Saga part 1:
This is the first saga. It starts fairly well. There is one villain, Raditz, who is Goku's older brother. I love how the events play out. Goku must work with a former villain, PIccolo, to defeat Raditz. Raditz probably would have won this fight, but Goku's son, Gohan gets pissed and attacks Raditz. Piccolo ends up charging up his special beam cannon and killing Raditz, who is restrained by Goku. The result is that the earth is saved, but Goku dies(for the first time out of many).
Score: 8/10
S Saga part 2:
This where the show really gets good. This is arguably one of my favorite parts of the series. Evil Saiyans are coming to attack the earth. They come looking for Dragon Balls, which they found out about threw Raditz. Early on you have the good guys training hard to get ready for the Saiyans. Goku trains with King Kai.....Im not going into all the details. The Z fighters prove to be no match for Nappa and Vegeta. Nappa does all the fighting early on. He's a Big Brute type of fellow, while Vegeta is short and skinny, but the Z fighters notice that Vegeta is the more powerful of the two. Goku comes back and he races to the battlefield. However he cant get there before almost every good guy (Z fighter) gets killed. Only Gohan and Krillin(a cowardly fighter) end up being alive by the time Goku shows up.
When Goku finally shows up, he kicks Nappa's a**. Nappa is unfortunately killed by Vegeta. This is where the show heats up. Goku finds out how tough Vegeta really is. The fight is incredible, but Goku almost wins. Then Vegeta does something to transform into...(Not spoiling it). With a combintation of help from Gohan and Krillin and this fat guy named Yajorobe..Vegeta is beaten. Goku is all messed up but he lets Vegeta live, which turns out to be a really good idea later.
Score: 8.5/10
Saiyan Saga Score: 8/10I really like the S. Saiyan Saga. As great as it is....its still not as good as DBZ gets......
