A classic of my childhood Dragon Ball is one of the best shows I've ever watched and, Gods forbid, if I ever have children I will be making them watch it.

With that in mind while shopping recently I came across the first two volumes of the manga. I've never bought any manga before so I thought why not.

With no real difference to the show (I have the uncensored, uncut DVDs) there was nothing new but it was good to go back to the start again and see how it originally came out.

A fun, funny and heartwarming tale I highly recommend either the manga or the show to everyone. ( )

Funny, endearingly flawed characters, smutty as a carry-on movie, well written, great cartoonish artwork. What more do you need for entertainment. Recommended. ( )

The first Manga I ever bought! I used to love Dragonball on TV, and found myself as addicted to the comic book series as I did to the TV show. Toriyama is incredibly cheeky and his character Goku is a loveable scamp, whom you can't help but follow on all his adventures! ( )

Un classique du manga ! Stupide et rigolo. ( )
