Dragonball Z had 291 episodes, and Dragonball GT had 64 episodes.  Dragonball Z also had 2 TV specials,  &#8220;Bardock: Lonely Final Battle&#8221; and &#8220;Last Remaining Soldiers, Gohan and Trunks.&#8221; Dragonball GT had one TV special titled &#8220;Goku&#8217;s Biography!  The 4-Star Dragon Ball is Proof of Courage.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There were 4 original Dragonball movies:<\/p>\n<p>Legend of Shenron<br \/>\nSleeping Beauty in Devil Castle<br \/>\nGreat Adventure in Penguin Village<br \/>\nPath of the Strongest (the 10th anniversary movie, actually DB movie 17)<\/p>\n<p>Dragonball Z had 13 theatrical films:<\/p>\n<p>Return My Gohan<br \/>\nWorld&#8217;s Strongest<br \/>\nGreat Whole Earth Battle<br \/>\nSuper Saiyajin Goku<br \/>\nStrongest vs. Strongest<br \/>\nAttack! 10 Billion Power Soldiers!<br \/>\nUltimate Battle! 3 Super Saiyajin<br \/>\nHard Fight!

If Goku Can&#8217;t do it, Who Can?<\/p>\n<p>In late 1994 Bandai released a pair of Dragonball Z video games for its short lived Playdia video game console- &#8220;Dragonball Z Gaiden: Saiyajin Setsu Metsu Keikaku Chikyuu Hen&#8221; and &#8220;Dragonball Z Gaiden: Saiyajin Setsu Metsu Keikaku Uchuu Hen,&#8221; or &#8220;Dragonball Z Side Story: Plan to Eliminate the Saiyajins&#8221; Earth Chapter and Space Chapter. These two games were essentially interactive movies.  When completed, they could be played back and watched as a pair of 25 minute long episodes that made up a single 50 minute long movie. Because both games were made to the quality standards of the Dragonball Z TV animation, and both games consist of entirely original animation and story, they are often mistaken for being Dragonball Z OAVs.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, the Final Bout Playstation game has a nice, original FMV anime opening sequence.  That about wraps it up for the Dragonball anime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: How many movies, OAVs and series are there for Dragonball?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-194","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ask-john"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=194"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
