Synopsis

In Year 461, apprentice Garlic vied for the title of next God of Earth. Garlic’s evil intentions were detected by the previous God, and another was chosen to be his successor. Irritated, Garlic rebelled against his master but was exiled. His son, Garlic Jr., returned to Earth three hundred years later, just months before the Saiyan Arc. Garlic Jr. sought revenge and gathered the Dragon Spheres. While searching for them, Garlic Jr. kidnapped Goku’s son. Garlic Jr. is aware of his power and makes him his disciple. To end the enemy, Piccolo, Son Goku, and the former team up to fight for revenge for the beatings he received earlier in a death match 💪 without being victorious due to the immortality of their enemy.

Plot

In a remote location, Piccolo is training for the upcoming fight with Goku. Unaware, he is immediately attacked by a mysterious group consisting of three powerful fighters: Sansho, Ginger, and Nicky. At Paoz Mountain, the mysterious group easily defeats King Gyuma & Chi-Chi. They kidnap Gohan, who possesses the Four-Star Dragon Sphere. Goku returns home to Chi-Chi’s injuries and discovers that Gohan is captured. Using The Dragon Radar, Goku locates his son and sets off to retrieve him. Son.

The leader of a fortress is shown to be Garlic Jr. He aspires to acquire the seven Dragon Spheres and become immortal so he can ascend to the throne. Nicky takes care of Gohan, but Gohan is very difficult to care for. Gohan declares he’s hungry and pulls out a piece of fruit he picked from an outside tree. Nicky advises him not to eat the fruit, but it’s too late. Gohan has already eaten it. It turns out that it was fermented. Gohan becomes drunk and runs around the castle, being chased down by Nicky until the Saiyan is next to Garlic Jr.

After collecting all of the Dragon Spheres, Garlic Jr. calls Shen Long to ask for immortality. Goku arrives and demands Gohan’s return, but Garlic Jr. declines. Goku prepares for battle, but God suddenly appears, explaining that Garlic Jr. is the son of Garlic, a man who was previously vying for the title of 🌎 Earth God. However, the ancient God recognized his evil intent and secured his power. Goku takes Garlic Jr. to God and travels to the castle in search of Gohan. Garlic Jr. follows Goku to help him in his search. Krillin comes to Goku’s aid in his search for Gohan. However, Piccolo then appears. Garlic Jr.’s minions are shocked that he is still alive and fighting fiercely. Gohan then urinates on Krillin’s head.

Garlic Jr. has a big advantage in front of God. He told him that he is no longer the fighter he was in his youth. God sees this and decides that he will take his own life in order to stop him. But, before he can do so, Piccolo and Goku arrive on the scene, having defeated Nicky, Sansho, and Ginger. Garlic Jr. becomes a powerful warrior. The battle begins, and Super Garlic Jr. is no match. They decide to remove their heavy combat clothes and push Garlic Jr. to his limits. Krillin eludes with Gohan but is still carried by Garlic Jr. Piccolo and Goku then fall to the bottom, almost fainting, in the castle.

They are defeated by a Double Spirit Control Wave. Super Garlic Jr. Piccolo challenges Goku, despite this and without taking into consideration the immortality and Super Makyan, to exact his revenge on the Saiyan. They then start their own battles, but not at the moment. Garlic Jr. appears unharmed. He’s had enough with the warriors and uses the 🐲 Death Zone to finish them all off once and for all. Little Gohan hears his dad in the distance and starts to cry from the rubble. An Inexperienced Power Boost allows Gohan to get angry and use his true power. Super Garlic Jr. cannot believe it and tries desperately to get in with the portal to challenge Gohan, but to no avail. Gohan uses all of his ki and becomes furious. Garlic Jr. is sealed in the Death Zone forever. The portal cracks and the Death Zone is no longer accessible. There are thousands of pieces.

Goku then rushes over to Gohan. He wakes up without any memory of what happened. Gohan’s ability to control the universe is shocking. They hide from him what really happened. Gohan is saved by the Kinton Cloud, and the two of them fly back on the Kinton Cloud to Paoz Mountain. Piccolo makes the decision to return to challenge Goku later.

Curiosities

• It tells a parallel story to the series, as the films before it. This case was set shortly before Raditz’s Arrival on 🌎 Earth.
• Although this movie takes place around Year 761, it would have had to have occurred in Year 760 in order to coincide with the Saiyan Arc (Raditz’s arrival), so that the Dragon Spheres were active again (at the end of the movie, Gohan was no longer carrying the four-star sphere).
• In Gohan’s (Tenka’ichi Gohan) dream, a dragon similar to the blue-colored Great Dragon appears, as well as other bizarre creatures from the world of Dr. Slump.

• Contrary to popular belief, the movie is actually called Dragon Ball Z. The subtitle Give me back my Gohan! (Ora no Gohan o Kaese!!) never appeared in the film and was not included as part of the film’s title until the Daizenshuu 6 released in late 1995. The phrase appeared on the back of the VHS and LaserDisc releases in 1990, but was not actually considered part of the film’s name.
• It is the first Dragon Ball Z movie to have a story in the anime (Garlic Jr. The second and third are 🐲 Dragon Ball Z: Battle of the Gods and Dragon Ball Z: The Resurrection Of ‘F” as a continuation of the anime to Dragon Ball Super (without Dragon Ball Z Kai).
