Book Overview

But the precious orbs are scattered all over the world, and Bulma could use the help of a certain super-strong boy...

Red Ribbon

Not a book to start your Dragonball reading. As Goku continues to look for his Grandfather's ball, he continues to upset the Red Ribbon army. The Saga starts to drag during this book, but stays interesting. Viz made some small changes to General Blue's dialog, the original Japanese version hinted that he was a pedophile, but was taken out for the US market.

Unlock the dragon

I use to think dragon ball was the worst show in the universe. Until I read the magna. This is the best magna I think ever.
