Dragon Ball Z Kai, a remastered edition of the classic DBZ series, contains a mix of canon and filler material, which we shall examine in this filler guide.
Dragon Ball Z kai is a Japanese animated television series that upgraded a lot of the Dragon Ball Z content to include HD image quality, better sound, and better effects. The original voice actors even recorded better-sounding lines!
The best thing about DBZK is that it follows the manga far more closely than DBZ did. The Garlic Jr. and Other World Tournament sagas were the most prominent original anime-only material deleted from Dragon Ball Z Kai.
