DVD : Dragon Ball Z - Season Five (Perfect and Imperfect Cell Sagas)
Description: "Dragon Ball Z has been called the Greatest Action Cartoon of all Time, and it's True!" --- Anime Insider
Season Five contains the Perfect and Imperfect Cell sagas on 6 discs.
The Z-Fighters gather their forces in an effort to combat the Android menace that has been set loose upon the planet. But they are about to discover that the Androids are the least of their worries. An even greater threat has risen from the shadows—Dr. Gero’s most lethal creation—Cell!
Born from the genetic material of the greatest warriors ever to walk the Earth, Cell is Dr. Gero’s ultimate weapon, a perfect fighting machine capable of duplicating all of the Z-Fighters’ most powerful attacks. Now, after years of waiting, Cell has begun to unleash his terrifying powers, wiping out entire cities as he gathers the energy he needs to fulfill his creator’s grand design. Time is short! The Z-Fighters must find a way to stop this monstrous foe before he completes his quest to absorb the other Androids and achieves his invincible Perfect Form!
Amazon.com: The artificial humans 17 and 18 who terrorized Earth in Season #4 of Dragon Ball Z were only a preliminary threat: Dr. Gero's ultimate creation, Cell, strikes in Season #5. A bio-entity created from genetic material taken from Goku, Piccolo, Vegeta, and Frieza, Cell arrives via the time capsule Bulma built for Trunks. (There are now two of them, somehow.) Although he defeats the merged Piccolo and Kami, Cell remains imprisoned in his "imperfect form," a sort of larval stage. Until he absorbs androids 17 and 18, he can't attain his ultimate power. Vegeta and Trunks train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber at Kami's palace, which enables them to undergo the equivalent of a year's heavy workouts at high gravity in one day. Transcending his powers as a Super Saiyan, Vegeta clobbers Cell. When Cell challenges Vegeta to fight his perfect form. Vegeta takes the bait and allows Cell to evolve. The perfect Cell proves so powerful, Trunks has to draw on untapped reserves of power to save Vegeta. Goku plays only a small role in Season #5: he spends the first episodes recovering from the heart virus, then waiting with Gohan for the Hyperbolic Chamber or training in it. One of best-loved stories in the Dragon Ball Z continuity the "Cell Saga" offers plenty of action, with characters punching each other through rock walls and destroying entire islands as they fight. But it ends on a weak note when, instead of killing Trunks, Cell challenges the Z Fighters to a martial arts tournament--the focus of Season #6. The paradoxes of the time travel story, including adult Trunks encountering himself as a baby, don't seem to bother the fans--or the writers. These 26 episodes could have easily fit on five discs or even four, and spreading them over six feels chintzy.(Rated TV PG. suitable for ages 8 and older: violence, tobacco use, ethnic stereotypes) --Charles Solomon

Rating: - awesome
i like dragon ball z and it was shipped and in great condition. its about Cell looking for android 17 and 18 to become perfect and you can say that with the help of Vegeta's pride he was able to become perfect Cell. definately a must own.
Rating: - This is a damn good set....
Dragon Ball Z season 5 has some of the greatest battles in DBZ history...
Piccolo Vs Android 17 was bonecrushing, and very exciting to watch
Tien who is normally only a side character, made one of the greatest moments I have ever seen. Tien is one of the weaker Z-Fighters, but managed to make Cell (a monstrously powerful foe, and the main antogonist of this set) his bitch for one episode lol
All in all, I think you'll like this set, so hurry buy it now
Rating: - Would have gotten 5 stars if Funimaton didn't skimp down on disc 4-6 (only three episodes per disc)...
One of my favorite episodes in the "DRAGON BALL Z" anime series was the Cell saga. The toughest enemy that the team has fought yet and the series focuses on everyone trying to prevent Cell from absorbing the androids while the Saiyan's Goku and son Gohan and Vegita and his son Trunks (future) train to get stronger, so they can prepare to fight Cell.
With each DVD season box set release of "DRAGON BALL Z", as a hardcore fan of the series, it's just incredible to get over 30 episodes for almost the same price or less than most American television box sets.
Season 5 surprisingly in duration wise, shorter than the previous volumes. Where each DVD had around 5 or more episodes, on disc 4-6, there are only three episodes on each disc.
I was surprised and I have to admit that I would be upset if Funimation did this from here on in but I understand that it's business and with everyone buying these box sets because it's awesome price for a large number of episodes, you can't beat it. But I'm just hoping that this is not a permanent decision.
VIDEO:
The video looks great on DVD and for those of us who have multi-generation fansubs or fading VHS tapes, just having these episodes on DVD and everything looking great. I know some people have a problem with the show receiving some cropping but for me it's quite miniscule.
SPECIAL FEATURES:
Special features include trailers and open and ending themes. If there was one thing lacking, it's the fact that there are really nothing in terms of special features.
Season 5 ends with a cliffhanger to the upcoming Cell games chapter and at the time of writing this review, Season 6 is now available in retail.
There is a lot of action in this series and no filler episodes. It's straight mayhem as Cell continues to absorb people and the heroes can do nothing but just hope they can hang on for a day or more while the Saiyans complete their training and hope to defeat Cell.
The Cell series was quite popular back then when I was watching the series in straight Japanese and the whole android storyline was just exciting to watch (especially the special episode in Future Trunks world which pits him and an older Gohan against the evil androids).
Speaking of the special, the special is not included and I assume that they will hopefully release it with the movie collection re-release. But for those who have never seen it and don't intend to buy it, there is an episode that shows footage from that special. ... Read More

I love dragonball z. I think its one of the best animated cartoons ever. So when I saw that they are coming out on dvd in different seasons, I had to get it. I have season 1, 2, 3 and 4 so I had to get 5 to add to my collection. I recommand getting this dvd for all the dbz fans out there.

I purchased this dvd for my son's birthday present. He really enjoyed it and said he is now ready for season six. He is a diehard fan.
