Why read it?
1 author picked Dragon Ball, Vol. 1 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The protagonist, Son Goku, started as a kid at the beginning of the series, and by the end, he had grandkids. I love following the entire life arc of characters, watching them grow, learn, fail, overcome obstacles, and succeed.
