Buu Saga
The final series of Dragonball Z starts off with Goku competing
in a fighting tournament in one of the four Kai's planet. The
result is that Goku ties with his worthy opponent. Meanwhile, Gohan
is training Goten in martial arts while Vegeta trains Trunks.
Both Gohan and Vegeta are surprised at how strong Goten and Trunks
are as they turn into their Super Saiyan form at such a
young age. Gohan also has a girlfriend (Sataan's daughter).
Later, Gohan, a hero who has achieved the identity as the Great
Saiyan-Man, attends a tournament. When it is the Great
Saiyan-Man's turn to compete, he turns into his Super Saiyan form
and his disguise is blown off. Everyone is amazed that a
nerd, Gohan, is the Great Saiyan-Man. All of a sudden, Spopobitch
and Yamu come out of nowhere and absorb Gohan's
energy into a "lamp" to revive Buu. Kai-shin and his partner, trying
to prevent Babi-di's and Darbura's plot to reactivate Buu,
allow this to happen so that he could follow the energy stealers
to their hideout. (Babi-di's goal is to destroy all life just for the
fun of it.) But, he revives Gohan first. The Saiyan warriors decide
to go as well. A fight follows. Darbura turns Klilyn and
Piccolo into stone and Kai-shin's partner is killed. The Z warriors
learn that Klilyn and Piccolo will return to normal once
Darbura dies. In battle, Vegeta is turned into Babi-di's slave
and an “M” appears on Vegeta's forehead. His energy is used to
reactivate Buu. Buu betrays Darbura and eats him. Thus, Piccolo
and Klilyn are returned to normal. Majin-Vegeta beats Goku,
and then goes to fight Buu. Upon failing, Vegeta self-destructs
and dies. Afterwards, Bulma gathers the dragonballs to revive all
those killed since the fighting tournament. In the fights later
on, Goku gets angry enough and reaches Super Saiyan form 3 for
the first time! (In stage three, Goku has long hair and is more
powerful than ever.) Gohan also heads to Kai-shin's planet, pulls
out the Z sword, and trains under Dai Kai-shin. Goten and Trunks
train as well to get stronger. From Goku, they learn the art
of fusion to fuse to become one, becoming Gotenks!
However, our heroes are still no match for Buu. Although Darbura's,
the Prince of Darkness (Babi-di's associate who looks
like a devil), and Babi-di's (a little ugly sorcerer with tiny
hairs growing out of his body) other minions are killed, Buu gets
stronger. Buu later revolts against his master (Babi-di) and kills
him. Before their deaths, the villainous Babi-di and Darbura
have cast a spell that turned Vegeta evil. However, in addition
with fighting against Goku, the evil Vegeta also fought Buu.
Although defeated by Buu, Vegeta later turns good again. It is
here that Vegeta finally officially becomes one of the good guys.
(In previous times, Vegeta only aids our heroes to assure that
Goku lives long enough for him to kill him. But, he never
attempted to kill Goku since the early battle against him in the
Vegeta Series. Next, Buu separates into two forms-one good
and the other evil. Evil Buu defeats good Buu, turns the him into
a cookie, and eats him. From this method, the evil Buu gains
the good Buu's powers and changes into a stronger form. Buu, previously
fat, is now skinnier and taller, not to mention a lot
stronger. Gotenks is also stronger; he is now able to turn into
Super Saiyan stage 3, like Goku. But, he is still defeated on one
of his encounters with Buu and Buu engulfs SSJ3 Gotenks. Thus,
Buu absorbed Gotenks' powers and becomes stronger again.
He changes form again! (His "antennae" grows longer and he now
wears a black vest like Gotenks'.) Piccolo is also defeated
and eaten by Buu. Meanwhile, Gohan had mastered the Z sword and
learned how to use his hidden powers without getting
angry under training with Dai Kai-shin. (He does not turn into
his Super Saiyan form for the rest of the series at this point.)
Unfortunately, he too is defeated and engulfed. Buu, now with Gohan's
powers, changes form again. (He now looks like he's
wearing Gohan's clothes.) With the other warriors defeated, only
Goku and Vegeta are left to battle against Buu!
Goku is still dead and watches the fight through Kai-shin's crystal
ball. Seeing the unfortunate odds for our heroes, Dai Kai-shin
sacrifices he life to Goku and dies. Goku's halo disappears, and
Dai Kai-shin wakes back up with a halo over his head. Now,
Goku teleports into the battle. Vegeta, still dead, is also sent
into battle by the judge of death. Goku acquired a pair of special
earrings from the Kai-shins that when each one is worn by different
people, the two will permanently fuse. With Goku wearing
one of the earrings and Vegeta wearing the other, the two are pulled
together and fused into Gogeta. At Gogeta’s turn to fight
Buu, Buu seems to be of no match to Gogeta, but Gogeta purposely
gets eaten by Buu to save the other Z warriors. This
canceled the effects of the permanent fusion in Gogeta and he fisses
back into Goku and Vegeta.
Next, Buu undergoes another form change and temporarily becomes
very muscular as he stands still in pain through the form
change. Goku and Vegeta are now inside of Buu's organs. They find
Trunks, Goten, Gohan, and Piccolo, and rescue them by
carrying them out of one of Buu's pores. As they leave Buu, the
warriors grow bigger and are restored to their normal size. Fat
Buu, the good Buu, also escapes from Buu's body. The evil Buu,
still "puffy" and bulky, is undergoing his form change to
restore to his original form. (The Kai-shins cursed him into his
previous fat looking form for destroying their people.)
Afterwards, he is little and short. Next, evil Buu does a giant
fireball and blows up Earth!!! Luckily, Goku had enough time and
teleported himself and his comrades to another planet. Later, the
Namek dragonballs are gathered and a wish is made to
restore the earth. The little Buu also met with the fat Buu. They
fight, but the good Buu is once again defeated.
Eventually, Goku and Vegeta are later fighting Buu. Vegeta stalls
Buu as Goku gathers the energy to do a super Genki-Dama
fireball. While Vegeta is getting kicked around by Buu, Piccolo,
Gohan, Goten, and Trunks are on earth trying to convince the
earthlings to raise their hands so that their energy will be given
to aid Goku strengthen his fireball.Because no one on earth
listens to the heroes, a new approach is taken. Sataan is contacted
for help. Because of his fame, he goes into public and raises
his hands. All of his fans, everyone on Earth, raise their hands
too to show their appreciation to Sataan. With everyone's hand
raised, energy is transferred to Goku and now he has enough power
to destroy Buu. With a single super fireball, Buu is
destroyed.
At the end, the fat Buu, who was beaten unconscious, awakens and
enters our heroes' side. Ten years past. Goten and Trunks
are now teenagers. Gohan married Videl and now has a 5 year old
daughter, Pan. Goku wished to fight the evil Buu all over
again, so he wished for the reincarnation of the evil Buu. The
evil Buu, now Ubuu, is reincarnated (and not evil anymore) and
under the training of Goku. There is peace on earth...
