(DVD/Video)

Guide Rating -

One of the latest releases in the Dragon Ball Z Majin Buu series, this video holds episodes 242, 243 and 244. A continuation of the Majin Buu saga, Buu has demanded that Piccolo bring the promised fighter to him. The fighter is Gotenks (Trunks and Goten fused), but he's not ready. In an effort to buy some time, Piccolo sends the boys to the Hyperbolic time chamber to perfect their moves. Remember, every minute outside in equal to six hours in the Chamber, so while Piccolo leads Buu in a long route to the Chamber, the boys have time to train, eat and rest.

When Buu arrives, the fight is on. And while Gotenks has mastered quite a bit of strength, his ego tells him to drag the fight out by using a number of bizarre moves the boys made up during training.

Overall, this video is classic DBZ. Gotenks leaves something to be desired in that he spends quite a bit of time announcing his next move rather than just doing it. That is, however, his character trait -- he's got an ego as big as Vegeta's -- and you can't help but laugh as Piccolo begs him to cut out the horseplay and get down to business.
