The third season of the popular shonen (boy's) show Dragon Ball Z continues the adventures of Goku and Gohan on Namek, Piccolo's home planet. Goku, who has been in a regeneration tank since the end of season 2, recovers just in time to challenge the sniggering Frieza, one of the most grating villains in anime history. Having defeated Gohan, Krillin, Vegeta, and Piccolo, Frieza takes on Goku in a protracted duel. When he begins to doubt his ability to overcome Goku, Frieza destroys the core of Namek, ensuring it will explode in a matter of minutes. Enraged by the death of Krillin and so many others, Goku transforms into the one thing Frieza fears: a Super Saiyan, a legendary warrior who appears once every 1,000 years. As the seconds tick away, the two most powerful individuals in the universe duke it out. While they're beating the soba out of each other, King Kai hatches a plan to use the Dragon Balls of Earth and Namek to ensure a happy ending. As the battle between Goku and Frieza intensifies, the kicks and punches fly, producing titanic explosions. But the duel goes on for more than 20 episodes: With only a limited budget and crude special-effects techniques at their disposal, the filmmakers have to recycle footage endlessly. Dragon Ball Z: Season 3 is more entertaining when the viewer allows a few days to elapse between episodes, rather than indulging in a Super Saiyan marathon. (Rated TV PG. suitable for ages 8 and older: violence, brief nudity, tobacco use, ethnic stereotypes) --Charles Solomon

 Best Saga! August 6, 2007

Season 3 of Dragonballz features the whole Frieza Saga. Although I love most of the DBZ Sagas, this is my favorite saga out of all the others.
I remember I alway wanted to get this saga but it was 10 tapes or DVD'S and the cost was around $80-$100, and I could not afford that. But thanks to the new DBZ season sets I could get this for 30 bucks instead.
I'm going to buy this the first day it comes out.

Awesome, dragonball z is amazing the new dvd sets are a must have for all fans. alot of people seem to be disatisfied by the new releases but i can't understand why. thenew stuff is uncut and is of higher quality than i remember it being when i watched years ago, if you are a fan you will not be disapointed. if your one of those really annoying people who try to critisize everything even when its a good thing you will still buy this set and secretly love having all the episodes. Enjoy.
This is where it get's Interesting!! December 18, 2007

I don't know about anyone else, but Frieza is one of the most unforgettable villains in DBZ. The thing that places DBZ among the greatest animated shows is one word..."Sagas." Yes, it's the sagas that make this show great. Saga's cause great character development and draws you in to see what will happen next. The Frieza saga, is one of the best. Not only is it the introduction to the Super Saiyan generation, but is also a really long, intense, and captivating battle. The third season is the first one I bought, because it's where DBZ goes to a whole new level. Hardcore fans may say differently but if you want to know where the serious action begins, it's in the Frieza saga. I was skeptical at first but after plopping in the first disk, I was hooked. One of my favorite episodes is when Frieza beats Vegeta to death. I was hooked. Trust me you wont' be dissapointed.
There are some minor downpoints of this DVD Collection:
a) Many are crying over the Widescreen, but trust me, it's not THAT BAD at all. There are a few times where you wish you could see the full frame but come on. The visuals are much more crisp and clear and you can't beat the 5.1 surround sound Japanese music.
b) The dialogue can be downright cheesy to the point of shaking your head. For instance, while in a heated galactical PUNCH-FEST, Frieza (the diabolical, cold-hearted killer) says to Goku "You Dirty Dog!" to which Goku replies "It takes one to know one!" What is this 3rd Grade?
But these minor irritations are hardly enough to stop one from purchasing this bundle. C'mon, what are ya' waiting for? Get it!!

I am glad that they are releasing Dragon Ball Z as seasons because I was one of those guy's that was buying the tapes when funimation was releasing them for 18-22 dollars a pop for 3 to 5 episodes. These dvd's are the best thing they thought of. GOOD JOB
A Perfect Set August 7, 2007

For those who have a problem with widescreen, I understand. I hated the idea at first, but doesn't the action of Goku battling Vegeta with Kaio-ken seem to take the idea away and seem unoticeable? It hardly matters. The battle with Freeza will be great Widescreen or no Widescreen. ( Besides, if the colors seem dull, you can change the contrast,color, and brightness of your T.V. or Portable DVD player ( get one of those) and it will be perfect). I am going to find this DVD set the best I've ever had. Guaranteed your going to love it, what's better than the battle against Freeza? The Battle of Freeza in the best Quality possible.
