 Vegeta as you've never seen him before! November 6, 2001
21 out of 23 found this review helpful
This is one hell of a video to get because it contains three excellent episodes. Vegeta is looking for atonement. It is his fault that Buu is free and he shall be the one to fix the situation by destroying Buu! Vegeta quickly shows he is far stronger than Gohan was when he fought Cell and he pouns on Buu but Buu seems invincible. Vegeta has an idea....use his own powers to explode in rage and take Buu out with you. Despite whatever Piccolo, Krillin, Goten or Trunks may say Vegeta is convinvd this is the only way. he knocks Goten and Trunks out and leaves them in the care of Piccolo for he knows if this does not work then they may be the Earth's last chance. Vegeta is now set to destroy himself and take Buu with him. Will the attack be enough to kill Buu once and for all and in this final act of will Vegeta find atonement for his sins? And what of Goku and Gohan? And Bulma and the others who have decided to find the Dragon Balls....well if you want to know....buy the tapes!

For those who has viewed the Dragonball Z Saga from the beginning, know about Vegeta. The arrogant, and cold-hearted Saiyan prince whose only goal in life was to be the most powerful being in the entire universe. He would try to achieve this goal by using any means necessary, and the Saiyan Prince has shown his mean, ruthless and iron clad determination throughout the entire Dragonball Z saga. In the beginning of the Buu Saga, we see him even allowing himself to be possessed by the evil Babidi's magic so he could increase his already super strength ten times. We also see a startling and heartfelt change in Vegeta's character as he rallies himself to battle Majin Buu. For no longer does he savagely persue ultimate power, but becomes good and protects the ones he truly loves, his family. Yes, the once ruthless and murderous prince of all Saiyans becomes a true hero and fights viciously against a seemingly unbeatable foe. In the end Vegeta made the ultimate sacrifice to save the Earth and destroy Majin Buu....he sacrificed his life for his family and yes even for Kakarrot(Goku).

I know what this movie is about because the japanese version was viewed on television a long time ago . Any way , Vegeta learns why Kakarot(Goku) is stronger than he is because of his pure heart . In a desperate effort he seld destructs to kill buu........what happens ? youl have to see for your self . I rated this a four star becaus of great animation and dramatic plot , but the less star is becase ol' veggie dies "boo hoo".

This vhs contains 3 episodes:Episode 220:Meal Time:As Vegeta heads towards Majin Buu, to battle the dreaded warrior, Dabaura, in rage, wants a rematch with Buu! But can the King Of Demons, surive being turned into a cookie? Episode 221:The Warrior`s Decision: As Majin Vegeta battles Majin Buu, the battle erupts. But Buu is having the upperhand, and seals it, by trapping Vegeta in a rubbery prision! Now crushed by Majin Buu, the only hope for Majin Vegeta, is Goten and Trunks, the young Super Sayins! Episode 222:Final Atonement: As Vegeta is crushed by Majin Buu, Goten and Trunks, quickly launch a single attack, disabling Buu.....for a few minutes. In the meanwhile, Piccolo, puts an end to Babdi`s wrath:once and for all! But when Majin Vegeta knocks out Goten and Trunks, the new Super Sayin 2 erupts with energy....In a mad attempt to self-destruct, and blow Buu and himself to smitherines!!!!!!

I have to say that if you're a fan of DBZ, and a fan of Vegeta (as I am), then this disc is a must-see. I won't waste time with a synopsis, as it's been dome already above. However I will say that I was relieved that Vegeta's character was finally allowed to "stretch out & breathe" for once, and I must say that the result is awesome. I'm not normally the type of person to get choked up by high drama, but the starting with Trunks' entering the fray to save his father, I had a pretty serious lump going in my throat. After Vegeta embraces Trunks and tells him how proud he is of him, it was full on tears. Anyway, definitely top notch writing on this one, with some excellent character developement and interaction.
