Dragon ball z

Vegeta Saga

This was the beginning of Dragon Ball Z. We first saw someone leaping from tree to tree in the forest. It was Son Goku, getting wood (actually a whole tree) for his wife, Chi-Chi, to cook. Chi-Chi asked Goku where was Gohan. Goku did not know so he went searching for him.

Meanwhile, a circular spaceship crashed onto Earth. A curious farmer looked for the space pod. As the pod opened up, a large stranger, with an appearance similar to Goku but had more hair and was stronger, emerged. The scared farmer took his gun and shot him, but the alien reflected the bullet back at the farmer, killing him. The alien flew and shouted out, "KAKAROTTO!!!"

A little child with a strange hat that held the 4-star dragon ball was lost in the forest. Meet Son Gohan, Goku's son. After meeting a tiger/puma, who later began his friend, he finally fell down a river on a log, shouting "DAD." Goku finally heard his screams and saved him.

Goku and Gohan flew to Kame-House to meet Kuririn, Kamesennin, Bulma, and the Turtle. Suddenly, the alien arrived. He told Goku he was his brother and told him his Saiya-jin origin. (Note: A previous head injury caused Goku to lost his Saiya-jin memory.) The alien, Raditz, told him to bring 100 dead bodies by the next day or Gohan would be lost to him. Piccolo arrived suddenly, told him of his encounter with Raditz, and agreed to team up with him. Because Raditz was very strong, they would have to fight together to win.

Goku and Piccolo finally found Raditz, and the battle had begin. During the battle, Piccolo lost a limb, and Goku was seriously injured. An enraged Gohan broke out of Raditz's spacepod, which he was trapped in, and attacked Raditz. During Raditz's weaken state, Goku was able to held him until Piccolo executed his secret attack, "MAKANKOSAPPO." Both Raditz and Goku was killed by the sudden attack. Before Raditz died, he told Piccolo that two stronger Saiya-jins will arrive in one year. Piccolo took Gohan to train with him because he knew that Gohan had great power.

Goku was now in heaven. He was allowed to travel through Serpent Road to Kaiou's planet to train, but he would go to HELL if he fell off. (Note: It was censored to HFIL, Home For Infinite Losers, in the American version.) After running continuously, he got tired but was able to get a ride from a guy that was cleaning Snake Way. When the driver/cleaner was sleeping, Goku fell from the car to HELL. In order to reenter Snake Way, Goku raced two, cool, dumb ogres. When he successfully left HELL, he had to run through Snake Way all over again but was able to regain his strength with an King Yamma's apple. After escaping from Princess Snake, he finally reached Kaiou's planet.
