The Success Story of Dragon Ball
The original Dragon Ball mangas
debuted back in 1984. Initially, the story of Son Goku & Co. and their quest for the seven magical Dragon Balls enjoyed rapidly growing popularity in Japan. Gradually, the title also garnered attention in other countries and continents. In Japan, the manga was adapted into an anime series as early as 1986. However, in most other countries, the broadcast of the anime took relatively long.
Creator Akira Toriyama might also be familiar to you from Japanese role-playing games, as the mangaka was responsible for the distinctive art design of Dragon Quest and Chrono Trigger.
Dragon Ball was
first broadcast in Germany in 1999. The delay did not hinder its success. Soon, Dragon Ball was on everyone's lips among kids here as the anime aired on free TV. Following this, the sequel series Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and Dragon Ball Super were developed. While Dragon Ball Z primarily draws from the original manga's story, Dragon Ball GT and Dragon Ball Super developed their own storylines that continue the saga.
From season to season, the martial artists grow stronger, the villains become more powerful, and the threats to Earth become more menacing. In the end, Son Goku, Son Gohan, Piccolo & Co. always manage to prevail in the battles against demons, monsters, and androids, even managing to turn some adversaries to their side.
