  Daizenshuu EX - Guides - DVD Guide - DBZ TV Series  
     
 

The first two seasons of FUNimation's dub have been released by Pioneer as edited & dub-only. These are currently seeing a confusing re-release that includes a canceled "Ultimate Uncut Edition" run in favor of a faux-"remastered" widescreen release which contains a redub using FUNimation's current voice cast. After that, the entire TV series is uncut and bilingual, released directly from FUNimation. These releases will be phased out in favor of FUNimation's faux-"remastered" widescreen release of the rest of the series.

 
Volumes Released / Announced: 87 +
Total Volumes Expected:
87 + Redub Volumes
Episodes: 1-276 (-291) English / 1-291 Japanese
 
Availability:
  • Edited, English Dubbed Only (1-53 / 1-67)
  • Uncut, Bilingual (54-276 / 67-291)

No Japanese-version episodes contain next-episode previews for the entirety of DBZ. No sound was given to FUNimation to go along with the video for next-episode previews (this also occurred with Sailor Moon; you can place the blame on Toei Animation).
