Well, I have to say Kai is amazing, it is DBZ the way it was meant to be seen, no filler, and faster paced action. I just wish they would be released sooner, 4 months each is a while to wait.

The original “Dragon Ball Z” packed a lot of unnecessary fat onto the meat of Toriyama Akira’s manga. Adapted from the final twenty-six volumes of the manga series, the producers wanted to stretch out the story into as many episodes as possible to stuffed in a bunch of filler and random content onto the main story.
“Dragon Ball Z Kai” takes a carving knife to the series and slices away all that extra, leaving only the pure Toriyama-elements. Reducing the series by more than half, “Dragon Ball Z Kai” has a hundred episodes compared to “Dragon Ball Z”‘s two hundred and ninety-one. That, my friends, is a lot of filler. A hundred and ninety-one episodes of filler.
Along with the episode reduction, “Dragon Ball Z Kai” has digitally restored the faded cels, replaced missing cels, and recorded both a new English dub and a new Japanese voice track using a mix of new and original voice actors to match up with the re-tooled version. In short, “Dragon Ball Z Kai” is like a straight shot of tequila compared to the original “Dragon Ball Z”‘s froofy, over-decorated blender marguerite..
Boxset Two of “Dragon Ball Z Kai” has episodes 14-26 on two DVDs. The episodes start with Goku powering up with the 3x Kaio-ken to duke it out with Vegeta, and ends with a final throw-down between Vegeta and Zarbon. And in-between is action, action, action.
If you have never gotten into “Dragon Ball” and always been curious about it, then these Kai releases are the way to go.

This review is from: Dragon Ball Z: Kai: Part Two [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
As I said in my review about part 1: I have been watching DBZ for about 10 years now, and I am happy that I can finally watch every episode and not get bored from all the fillers and stand-offs from the original.
Likes-
New intro
Fixing of the scenes that were damaged over the years
Taking out the fillers
Better English dialogue
Excellent sound quality
Pretty much exactly like the manga
New animated breaks in between parts of an episode that actually change as the episodes progress.
Dislikes-
No marathon mode
I think Dragon Ball Z Kai is awesome, it gets me excited to watch the whole series again. My guess is there will be 7 parts to the whole Dragon Ball Z Kai series. Reason why I say this is because, on the right side of the case, in the middle of the corresponding stars where it says what part it is. There are 7 stars lined up in a row.
