5.0 out of 5 stars Dragon Ball, 20 Jun 2003
Before there was the legend of Dragon Ball Z, came the fables of Dragon Ball, how it all started.

Here the adventure begins, with the mischievous young Monkey boy Goku, the genius inventor Bulma, and friends as they embark on their quest for the seven Dragon Balls. They plan to gather all seven and summon the mystical Dragon, who will grant them a wish. However, others are also looking fro them, but with evil intentions. Can Goku & co. get to them in time?

After their original release in 1986 Dragon Ball had only been printed in Japanese, but now all of the books have been translated into English for all you Japanese illiterates, like me ;). However only the dialogue has been directly translated, so you still have to read them from right to left, from the back cover to the front cover. But that is a small price to pay for the joy to follow Goku's innocent yet adventurous childhood.
