Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge

Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge follows Goku after his victory over Frieza, as he returns to Earth and takes Gohan and Krillin on a camping trip. The peace does not last: Cooler, Frieza's brother, arrives with his henchmen to settle the score for his sibling's defeat. The fight that follows pushes Goku to his limits, and it is only by transforming into a Super Saiyan that he can stand against Cooler's transformed state.
