"You won't believe how powerful it is now!" -- NewType

Having suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Saiyans, and with Goku still recovering from his injuries, the remaining Z-Fighters must embark on a perilous journey to Planet Namek in search of the Namekian Dragon Balls. Unbeknownst to them, however, a powerful new enemy has set his sights on the same prizeâ€”the ruthless tyrant Frieza!

Beset on all sides by danger, Gohan, Krillin, and Bulma must fight for their lives as they struggle to keep the Dragon Balls from falling into evil hands. Meanwhile, Goku races against time to join his friends in their quest, but waiting for him on Planet Namek is an army of the most powerful villains the universe has ever known, led by Friezaâ€™s most elite fighting unitâ€”the unstoppable Ginyu Force!

Summary: More filler less thriller...
Comment: The Dragonball Z series is excellent but this season was just a filler with character introduction and lead up to the Super Sayian transformation.

Summary: HECK YES!
Comment: If you like Dragonball Z, and you don't have this yet. . . you have better been under a rock. Although the second season can get a lil boring it is really good all in all.

Summary: Dragon Ball Z BOx Set 1
Comment: It brings back memories when I used to watch it on tv. There are so many episodes that I have not seen, so it is fun to catch up. I can't wait til the next box set!

Summary: The second season DVD box set for Dragon Ball Z
Comment: The Dragon Ball Z Season Two DVD box includes six DVDs that contain thirty-five episodes. The first five discs contain six episodes, while the sixth disc contains five episodes and the DVD extras.

One of my favorite things about this DVD set is the "marathon feature." This allows you to watch all of the episodes back-to-back, but you only see the opening credits once; the ending credits are not shown when watching with the marathon feature. This feature's really helpful when you're trying to watch all the episodes on a single disc in one night.

I was rather disappointed by the special features. All you get are the textless versions of the opening and ending credits (which were previously included on the box set for the first season), and trailers. To be honest, I didn't think these features were quite so "special." The audio mastering levels for this DVD release were also an issue. FUNimation's opening splash screen and the trailer at the beginning of each DVD were mastered at a high audio level, but then the menu and the actual episodes were mastered with a rather soft audio level. This would mean having to have my volume turned way down until the main menu appeared; then, I would suddenly have to crank the volume back up quite a ways in order to hear the audio for the episodes.

While I was disappointed with the audio levels and the lack of special features, this set is still a "must get" for any Dragon Ball Z fan that wants all the episodes on DVD. The price isn't too bad for what you get, but it would have been a little more worth the price if FUNimation had gone to a little more effort on the special features.
