Dragon Ball (ドラゴンボール Doragon Bōru) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Akira Toriyama. It was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1984 to 1995, with the 519 individual chapters published into 42 tankōbon volumes by Shueisha. Dragon Ball was inspired by the classical Chinese novel Journey to the West. The series follows the adventures of the protagonist, Son Goku,
from his childhood through adulthood as he trains in martial arts and
explores the world in search of the seven mystical orbs known as the
Dragon Balls, which can summon a wish-granting dragon when gathered.
Along his journey, Goku makes several friends and battles a wide variety
of villains, many of whom also seek the Dragon Balls for their own
desires. It contains themes of friendship, rivalry, personal loss and
victory.
