Having absorbed Android 18 and achieved his perfect form, Cell declares a tournament where the world's greatest warriors must battle to defeat him or he will destroy the world. While first Goku and Gohan, and later others, feverishly train to increase their power levels in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Cell arranges the particulars of his tournament, and his worldwide announcement about it sends the populace into panic. Goku and Gohan take it easy for a few days before the tournament starts, during which Goku not only arranges for a new Guardian for Earth, and thus a new set of Dragonballs, but also seems strangely confident despite announcing that he can't beat Cell. [spoiler] When the Cell Games finally begin, Goku stands first amongst the Z fighters, only to concede after a few minutes and relinquish the field to his secret weapon: his son Gohan, whom he declares has the power to beat Cell. But given that young Gohan does not have the same temperament as his father, did Goku possibly make a mistake? What will it take to draw out the young boy's full might, and will even that be enough against a foe who can draw on the abilities of all the greatest warriors? [/spoiler]

And will Hercule Satan, the martial arts World Champion, actually ever get around to living up to his self-aggrandized reputation and battling Cell himself?

This season turned out to be excellent for one which contain high amounts of filler at the beginning. If it was not for the filler or Mister Satan, this season would likely be a ten for me.

Content details as in the uncut series:

Violence: Energy beams are launched and martial arts are used in each episode, sometimes moderate amounts of blood are shown. Two major protagonists are killed, one by an explosion, but another after being shot in the upper right of his body, and blood is clearly displayed from the small, gaping hole in his body. Another more minor protagonist (Spoiler: Android #16 ) is blown to pieces, and his head is lost from his body. He does not bleed because he is a machine.

Nudity: There are a few scenes were male characters fish in the water while just wearing undergarments, but there is nothing significant of the nudity category besides that.

Theological Themes: This is the season where fundamentalists believe they have all the valid evidence they need to justify their rash, negative conclusions about Dragon Ball Z, all due to Mister Hercule Satan. But he, as can be seen from his actions, is not like the Satan of the major monotheistic faiths, but rather is basically a complete narcissist. Another content in the anime that will seriously lead to great overreaction from the fundamentalists would be the fans of his, who have signs like "GO SATAN." But in my honest opinion, the "Satan" part of his name is merely a name.

Other Issues: There is a very infrequent amount of smoking in the season, plus Mister Satan's announcer points the finger at Cell once.
