What Dragon Ball Z: The Tree of Might is
You train in the wilderness with Gohan and Krillin. But an alien pod crashes nearby, and then more arrive, planting a massive tree. Its fruit grants immense power, but the Earth withers. Nishio's camera swoops and dives. The animation evokes the series' peak. It feels like a lost episode, not a cash-in.
