Goku is a legendary warrior and the strongest fighter on the planet, but he's about to encounter a foe from out-of-this-world. What brings this new menace to Earth? And what's up with his tail?
When Raditz abducts Gohan and announces his plans to conquer Earth, Goku and Piccolo are forced into an uneasy alliance. The two rivals donÆt trust each other but neither of them can defeat the Saiyan on their own!
Despite the fury of their attacks, Goku and Piccolo are unable to land a death blow in their battle against Raditz. GohanÆs unexpected outburst manages to weaken the powerful Saiyan, but it may be too little, too late.
Now that he's dead, Goku must fight to survive in the afterlife, especially during his treacherous trek down Snake Way. Back on Earth, Gohan endures his own punishment as a student in the house of Piccolo!
Piccolo tries to toughen up Gohan with some wilderness survival training, but things get hairy when the young Saiyan sees his first full moon! Meanwhile, Yajirobe summons Earth's strongest fighters to Kami's Lookout.
As the deadly Saiyan invaders approach Earth, Gohan makes slow, but steady, progress under the watchful eye of Piccolo, and Goku struggles with the "gravity" of his training under King Kai.
To prove himself worthy of King Kai's training, Goku must test his mettle against a fleet-footed monkey and a powerful cricket that's big on respect. Meanwhile, in the land of the living, Gohan takes a beating from his monstrous master!
Goku's training under King Kai is finally complete, and he's eager to return to Earth. Master Roshi uses the Dragon Balls to summon Shenron, but will Goku make it back in time to stop the Saiyans?
