The next batch of releases for our favorite franchise over here in North America have some information trickling out.

First up is the seventh and final Dragon Box for the Dragon Ball Z TV series, coming 13 September 2011 from FUNimation. This set covers DBZ TV episodes 251-291, and closes out the series. RightStuf is already taking pre-orders, and we expect listings to spread to other retailers soon. MSRP on the boxes is currently $59.98, but there have been some pretty great deals online, so shop around.

Also coming out on 13 September 2011 is FUNimation’s “Part Six” of Dragon Ball Z Kai. The next set continues onward into the Cell story arc and retails for $34.98 on Blu-ray and $29.98 on DVD. RightStuf is also currently accepting pre-orders on this release, both on DVD and Blu-ray.

The fifth set, due out later this month, has already been confirmed to have the “replacement score” of Shunsuke Kikuchi’s music, re-inserted into the series after the debacle with Kenji Yamamoto’s score possibly infringing on other compositions.
