Revision as of 19:33, 17 July 2020

This article is about the first part of the Buu Saga. For the whole saga, see Buu Saga.

The Other World Saga or Anoyoichi Saga (あの世一武道会編 Ano-yo'ichi Budōkai Hen, lit. "Another World's Number One Martial Arts Gathering Arc")[1] is the eleventh saga of Dragon Ball Z. It is entirely filler and thus does not appear in the manga. It is set between the Cell Games Saga and the Great Saiyaman Saga. Originally considered part of the Great Saiyaman Saga in Funimation's older releases, it is listed as its own saga in the Funimation Dragon Box Sets. It aired in Japan in 1993.

Like the Garlic Jr. Saga, it is comprised entirely of filler material and thus omitted from Dragon Ball Z Kai, though the montage at the end of the episode "Peace for the Future! The Spirit of Goku is Forever!" shows clips from it.

During the tournament, Goku defeats Caterpy, Arqua, Maraikoh and Pikkon defeats all three of his opponents including Olibu, until they reach the finals and face each other for the tournament victory.

As the battle gets more intense, Pikkon seems to have the upper hand, taking down Goku with his Hyper Tornado and Thunder Flash Attack. But at the last moment, when Pikkon decides to use his Thunder Flash for the third time, Goku utilizes his Instant Transmission and counters with his Kamehameha, blasting Pikkon out of the arena, seemingly giving Goku a victory until the Grand Kai disqualifies them both because they touched the ceiling, which is not allowed, thus ending the match in a draw. However, Grand Kai agrees to train Goku and Pikkon in about 200–300 years, giving him time to get back in shape.

Meanwhile, on Earth, seven years has passed since the battle with Cell. A teenaged Gohan has finally gone back to studying as he begins his first day of High School, and he goes on his Flying Nimbus whilst Chi-Chi tells Gohan to be careful.
