Sagas overview
A note on the "Saga" nomenclature:
The "sagas" that comprise the following list correspond to the sets released by FUNimation in 2003. However, these "sagas" only correspond to story arcs (which are themselves split at debatable points), and not to the pattern in which the show actually aired in either Japan or the United States.
In Japan, Dragon Ball (like both of the other Dragon Ball series) was aired year-round continuously, with regular pre-emptions for sporting events and television specials taking place about once every six weeks on average.
