Movie Reviews of DragonBall Z: Androids SagaMovie Review: One of the best sagas BDZ has to offer since the Freiza's! Summary: 5 Stars
When the fourth season of DBZ aired on Toonami I was ecstatic (mostly because I was tired of watching the Namek/Freiza sagas), there is so much to love about this particular saga even though they edited for TV. I was awe with the amount of scenes uncut version; they were intriguing scenes to watch and praise. There are five androids in all and so many plot twists from the starting from the first episode it will leave you wanting to watch this again if you never saw it on Toonami. Based on what I've heard from previous released uncut DBZ DVDs' released by Funimation, the English dub is as well as can be expected, I'm glad they didn't redub the narrator like they did in the Perfect Cell Saga DVDs (those who have watched the edited version released by Pioneer Video will notice the change of voice-actors and dialogue for the characters right off), as is the Japanese Sub. My only compaint with the Japanese sub is that the audio is mono type and the quallity isn't as clear as the English dub (not to mention Masako Nozowa is Goku's/Gohan's "female" voice actor, which bothered me) but purists or non-purists should enjoy it. Anyways, mirai Trunk's predictions have come true and its up to Goku and the gang to stop these androids that plan to destroy earth, therefore bringing about the future Mirai Trunks lives in.
Except there's a problem; the androids Goku and the others face are not the one's Trunks told them about, plus Goku is suddenly put out comission by a deadly heart virus that killed him in the future leaving the Z- warriors in a serious time of doubt of their own abilities against the lethal machines. The story progresses from there into entirely different plot and the Z-fighters find themselves trying prevent a future not yet come to pass while Goku struggles to beat the virus that ills him. This is the saga to watch before perchasing the Imperfect Cell saga on DVD.
