Possibly the best saga of Dragonball I dont find dragonball all that great. In fact I rarely watch it. But this saga is my favorite of Dragonball. The series doesn't pick up until the Commander Red Saga when Kid Goku fights Mercenary Tao and destroys the Red Ribbon Army. This saga forces Goku to answer for his apparent killing of Tao. The 22nd Martial arts Tournament takes place and Kid Goku and Krillin finds themselves fighting for their very lives. This could be the best of the volumes due to its stories and the epic battle between Goku and Tien. This battle focused on skills and martial arts instead of the powering up and energy attacks you later see in DBZ. If you must own anything before the DBZ era, then this set is definitely the one to own. It is a great saga. It features 18 episodes on 2 disks.
the conflict between the crane and turtles pupils This saga has the crane hermits pupils in the tournement only to find out that goku had fought tao and defeated tao and that fired them up.So that makes even harder for goku and krillin.And it also has the return of jackie chun the champian of the the last world tournement.And finally tien turns from his evil ways.But at the end we find after goku forgets his power pole and the four star dragonball at the restraunt entrence. krillin offers to get it but goku senses danger but still lets him go but after awhile he does not come back.Goku can hear krillin in his head so goku rushes out of the restaraunt only to find his best friend dead with the man that announces the tournement laid next to him with goku furious of his freinds death that ends the the saga for now.I personnaly love this saga because it has pretty good fights.I give this five stars.
Ten Shinhan Saga I loved this saga mostly because of the action. This saga contains 18episodes (9episodes on each disc. Tien won the tournament because Goku had bad luck and crashed into a stupid truck. I thought that that was extremely cheap but what really fascinated me was in the end of the saga. Krillan was killed by a mysterious new villain. I really suggest buying this saga because you'll have a lot of fun!!!!
Not my favorite Dragon Ball saga, but close The Tien Shinhan Saga is wonderful. It contains 18 episodes of Dragon Ball on only 2 discs which is just incredible. This saga deals with the 22nd Annual World Martial Arts Tournament. Once again Goku, Krillin, Yamcha, and Jackie Chun enter the tournament, but who are these two new fighters who seem to know Master Roshi? A new master from Roshi's past is revealed. The fights are not to be missed as almost all of them are spectacular. My personal favorites were Tien vs. Jackie Chun and Tien vs. Goku.
This saga is my second favorite in Dragon Ball due to the final episode entitled, "The Fallen." This episode's title has a double meaning in that it literally means Goku and Tien are falling from the sky and only one can become champion, but it also means the death of one of our heroes. This episode sets up for in my opinion the greatest saga of Dragon Ball, the King Piccolo saga.
Overall, the Tienshinhan Saga has a great amount of fighting and many episodes. I would recommend it to any fans of DB or DBZ.
The best DB set Arguably the best saga in the original Dragonball anime, we find that Goku, Kuririn, Yamcha, and Master Roshi/Jackie Chun are once again participating in the Tenkaichi Budokai. However, Tenshinhan and Chaozu, the two warriors Goku encountered at the end of the Fortuneteller Baba set, have also entered, and soon what starts out as a fun-filled time turns into a fight for life! You see, Tenshinhan and Chaozu's master is the evil Crane Hermit, and he just happens to be Master Roshi's rival! Not only that, but Tao, the assassin Goku defeated, happened to be his younger brother! When the Crane Hermit learns what happened to his baby bro, he's determined to make sure that Goku and Kuririn die no matter what! Complicating matters are the mysterious Manwolf, who seems to have it in for Jackie Chun, and the fighter Panputto, who's sleazy agent is determined to make sure he wins the Budokai. Not only that, but despite Tenshinhan's claims that he wants to become an assassin, Master Roshi realizes that there is some good in him. Will he be able to get Tenshinhan to change his ways?
Of course, this saga is a tournament, and with that you can expect tons of fighting, correct? Well, of course! With 18 episodes total, there are a ton of brawls throughout, but the highlight for me has to be the final five. These form a whopping 5-episode battle between Goku and Tenshinhan, which are some of the greatest parts of the entire Dragonball storyline ever. The ending also ends on quite a cliffhanger, leading into the next set(King Piccolo, part 1), but even though I don't own that one yet, but, I'm more than happy with this one, which is easily worth the $40 price.
