Dragon Ball Z is the sequel to the ever popular Dragon Ball created by Akira Toriyama. This part of the series has a totally different atmosphere than that of the first. Similar to the latter half of Dragon Ball, the basis of the story is Goku’s challenge against powerful villains. Four major villains set the corner stones of the Z series. They are Vegeta, Freeza, Cell and Majin Buu, each one more powerful than the previous. Although the plot and setting of this part may be simple, what captures the audience is the relationship between the characters. Even though we could have all predicted the outcome, it is difficult to predict the shift of relationship between characters. Friends become enemies, enemies become friends and new characters enter the story as the offspring of other major characters.
