The adventures of Earth's martial arts defender, Son Goku, continue with a new family and the revelation of his alien origins. Now Goku and his allies must defend the planet from an onslaught of new extraterrestrial enemies.
While Trunks tells the others of Cell’s plans to hold a tournament, the diabolical android begins his preparations for the competition by constructing a fighting arena. Do the Z-Fighters have a chance, or is this a contest that only Cell can win?
Cell breaks into showbiz, literally! The sinister android hijacks a television station in order to announce his "Cell Games" to the world! But are there any challengers left with the strength and courage to get into the ring?
Panicked Earthlings flee their homes to escape Cell’s wrath, but all hope is not lost! Back at the Lookout, Goku and Gohan finally emerge from the Time Chamber. After a quick trip to size up the competition, Goku is ready to battle Cell!
With nine days until Cell's tournament begins, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Trunks plan to return to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. But Goku decides that he and Gohan have had enough training! What does Goku know that the others don't?
Gohan stumbles upon a village that has retreated to a nearby shelter, and when he discovers that the owner of the shelter is capitalizing on the villagers' fear of Cell, he comes up with a Super Saiyan solution to the problem!
As the Cell Games draw near, Goku enjoys his remaining time with friends and family! First he fishes with Krillin, then he strolls down memory lane with Chichi, and finally it's time for a very special boy to blow out the candles!
When the Royal Military foolishly tries to stop Cell with ordinary weapons, the attack quickly becomes a suicide mission! Goku is determined to revive the fallen soldiers, but that will require new Dragon Balls!
With help from King Kai, Goku travels to Namek to recruit a new guardian for the Earth! Most of the Namekians refuse the offer, but there’s one little guy who can’t wait to go! Dende is back, and he’s going to create a new Dragon!
Goku comes face to face with an old adversary: General Tao! The search for the Dragon Balls led Goku to the aging general, but unless the Super Saiyan can solve the crafty villain’s puzzle, the search may end in vain!
The wait is over, and the Cell Games are ready to begin! The Z-Fighters arrive ringside, only to discover another challenger already on the scene. It’s none other than World Martial Arts Champion, Mr. Satan!
Caroni and Pirozhki, Mr. Satan’s top students, make a spectacular entrance to the ring, but are they really ready to rumble with Cell? Don’t miss a minute of the fun, because this fight could be over fast!
The main event begins! Now free of distraction, Goku steps into the ring to face Cell. The Earth shakes and the heavens tremble as these mighty super warriors collide! And that’s just the warm up!
Cell attacks Goku with a dazzling array of moves: the Destructo Disk, the Special Beam Cannon, even the Kamehameha Wave! So far, Goku has been able to match Cell blow for blow, but how will the Super Saiyan fare against such a lethal arsenal?
As the battle intensifies, Cell quickly grows tired of the rules he created for the tournament. With a flick of his finger, the Android destroys the ring, instantly turning the Cell Games into a deadly fight to the finish!
Goku blasts Cell with a Kamehameha Wave that reduces the android to a pile of cinders, but his triumph is short-lived. The monster shows his amazing resilience by fully regenerating himself!
After surrendering to Cell, Goku names the next challenger to enter the Cell Games: Gohan! Goku has supreme faith in his son’s abilities, but the young Saiyan will need a lot more than his father’s confidence if he’s going to survive!
The fight between Gohan and Cell intensifies, but the villain’s attacks seem to have no effect on the boy! Could the young hero really have the power to defeat the evil android once and for all?
Cell is determined to unleash Gohan’s full potential, but the boy refuses to fight, prompting the android to torture Gohan’s friends instead! Next, Cell does the unthinkable by spawning miniature Cells to attack the Z-Fighters!
Gohan boils with rage as the Cell Juniors wreak havoc on the Z-Fighters. The boy struggles to resist the urge to fight, but he’s a powder keg waiting to explode, and Android 16 appears ready to light the fuse!
Spurred by Android 16’s dying words, Gohan’s hidden power is finally unleashed! With his new strength and speed, Gohan easily destroys the wicked Cell Juniors, but his sights are set on a bigger target!
Cell’s desire for battle turns into a nightmare as Gohan unleashes the full fury of his strength. The evil android powers up to his maximum level, but will it be enough to spare him from the wrath of Super Saiyan?
Gohan’s Super Saiyan strength appears to have no limit, and the young hero delivers a blow so severe it causes Cell to cough up Android 18! As the monster wears down, Gohan prepares to end the battle once and for all!
Clearly overmatched by Gohan, Cell initiates his last line of defense: a self-destruct program that will blow up the entire planet! With only seconds to spare, Goku risks everything to transport Cell away from the Earth.
The nightmare continues! Cell explodes, but a particle of his nucleus survives the blast, providing all the android needs to regenerate himself! Restored to his ultimate form, Cell returns to the Earth more powerful than ever!
After easily dispensing of both Trunks and Vegeta, Cell announces a new plan. First, he’ll destroy the Earth, and after that, the Universe will be his next target! Can this weapon of ultimate destruction be stopped?
The final showdown begins! While Goku telepathically coaches Gohan from the Other World, the Z-Fighters jump in for a five-sided attack! Gohan has the potential inside him, but can Goku show him how to unlock it?
Cell is finally defeated, but the Z-Fighters still have much to resolve! Can they make it to the Lookout in time to heal the badly-injured Gohan? Is Android 18 still a threat? And can our heroes find a way to bring back Goku?
After Goku’s decision to stay in the after-world, Krillin uses the final wish to save Android 18, but does he have the courage to reveal his true feelings? And is anyone brave enough to break the news of Goku's passing to Chichi?!
Peace and order have been restored on Earth in the present, but Trunks’ future world is still a place of darkness and despair! Once he arrives home, the future will be forever changed!
