Dragon Ball: Tournament - Roshi's Request is the first official home video release of episodes 14, 15, and 16 of the original Dragon Ball television series by FUNimation, released exclusively as an uncut English dub on VHS 05 June 2001[1][2] in America. The volume is notable for being the company's official continuation of the series after their initial attempt in 1995 resulting in only 13 episodes and a shift in focus instead to the Dragon Ball Z television series for broadcast in 1996.
Primary Content
The release's primary content is episodes 14, 15, and 16 of the original Dragon Ball television series, presented in their original 4:3 fullscreen production aspect ratio.
| Episode Number | Dub Title | Japanese Title |
|---|---|---|
| 14 | Goku's Rival | 悟空のライバル？参上！！ Gokū no Raibaru? Sanjō!! Goku's Rival? Arrival!! |
| 15 | Look Out For Launch | ？な女の子ランチ Fushigi na On'na no Ko Ranchi The Peculiar Girl, Lunch |
| 16 | Find That Stone! | 修業・石さがし Shugyō · Ishi Sagashi Training: The Stone Hunt |
These new English episode titles, at times rough approximations of the original Japanese titles, differ from those in FUNimation's original 1995 plans, which at the time were listed as "Krillin," "Launch," and "Jungle Training," respectively.[3]
The episodes are presented uncut in an English-dub-only format, with a 2.0 stereo sound English dub featuring the FUNimation/Texas-based cast with the original Japanese score by Shunsuke Kikuchi). The opening and ending themes -- respectively -- are new instrumentations and performed with English vocals.
The English dub as presented on this 2001 release serves as the basis for future re-releases from FUNimation, including the 2003 "Dragon Ball: Tournament Saga" two-disc DVD set and 2009's "Dragon Ball: Season One" five-disc DVD set.

Release Issues
FUNimation's early/mid-2001 VHS volumes, including "Roshi's Request," saw various print and video master errors:[5]
There was a slight slip-up on one of the images that appears on both of the sleeves of the new Dragon Ball videos, titled Tournament - Roshi's Request and Tournament - Turtle Hermit Training. Don't worry, Tournament - Roshi's Request and Tournament - Turtle Hermit Training will still be released on their target dates of June 5 and June 19, respectively. One shipment of both videos with the slip up is already headed to stores. The image has since been corrected and new sleeves will be ready soon. It will be interesting if fans can find out the difference in the two video sleeves. We are hoping that the second set of videos will make it to stores near you without any delay. Due to this slip-up, you might want to get your set of these DB videos on street date. You can secure a copy of each at the DBZ Store www.dbzstore.com or at other fine DBZ retailers.
