About the series
Akira Toriyama's original Dragon Ball manga, serialized in the 1980s, is presented here in a 16-issue comic format by Viz Media from 2003 to 2004. This series follows the earliest adventures of the young, tailed warrior Son Goku alongside the clever Bulma, as they search for mystical artifacts and encounter a colorful cast that includes the martial arts master Kame-Sen'nin and the shape-shifting Oolong. It's a foundational work of shonen manga, introducing the blend of martial arts fantasy and comedic adventure that would define a global phenomenon.
