DRAGONBALL
(plain, Z and GT)
(Johann doesn't like DragonBall Z but I do)
DragonBall Z is one of the most famous mangas that have ever come out. Recognised
by westerners and Japanese alike, DragonBall Z started with DragonBall which
made itself known thanks to it's great humour, and the great touch added
by Son Goku. Unfortunately, this manga has become, through the years more
and more violent to finally become DragonBall Z which is composed of battles
and more battles. That is why Akira Toriyama stopped DraonBall Z and started
a new series called DragonBall GT (Great Travel).
Way too many things happen in DragonBall for us to tell you about them,
so heed our advice: buy the series and ye shall be happy. In Dragonball
Z, there are mostly fights upon which the fate of the world is based, some
people like it, some don't (Johann) I recommend renting some of the videos
and seeing for yourself. DragonBall GT is the story of (I can tell you since
it's not out yet) Son Goku, Trunks and Pan who go off on a space adventure.
Son Goku gets shrunk because some idiot wishes that Son Goku was small while
in front of the Dragon Shenron. Son Goku, now as small as he was at the
beginning of DragonBall, has one year to become big again because of some
complications.
The Dragon Balls are unusable for a year so Goku and Trunks prepare to travel
to another planet to see if they can find other Dragon Balls. Pan stashes
herself aboard and that's where the fun really starts...
We loved DragonBall because of the humor and the fact that it was very well
rounded, we liked DragonBall Z because of the fact that there were too many
battles and not too much else. We'll give you our impresions on DragonBall
GT when we see it but for the moment it seems like it's going to be quite
amazing.
