About the Author

Renowned worldwide for his playful, innovative storytelling and humorous, distinctive art style, Akira Toriyama burst onto the manga scene in 1980 with the wildly popular Dr. Slump. His hit series Dragon Ball (published in the U.S. as Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z) ran from 1984 to 1995 in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. He is also known for his design work on video games such as Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger, Tobal No. 1 and Blue Dragon. His recent manga works include COWA!, Kajika, Sand Land, Neko Majin, Jaco the Galactic Patrolman and a children's book, Toccio the Angel. He lives with his family in Japan.

Toyotarou created the manga adaptation for the Dragon Ball Z anime’s 2015 film, Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F. He is also the author of the spin-off series Dragon Ball Heroes: Victory Mission, which debuted in V-Jump in Japan in November 2012.

The Dragon Ball Super anime series let us see again our favorite characters ...

Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2018

The Dragon Ball Super anime series let us see again our favorite characters from the Dragon Ball Franchise. A new story, new challengers and enemies. If you followed the anime through crunchyroll or Funimation you know that it was really good. Now we have here the same story but it is told in a different way.

Let me explain it for you. Akira Toriyama the creator of Dragon Ball is helping producing the new material, but he just gives some ideas or some story line material to the anime producers and the mangaka for this version (Toyotaro) to interpert. Then, the anime producers and mangaka make their own interpretation of the story and that is why you may have some slightly differences between the anime and manga. The producers have their versions and Toyotaro them. One is not better than the one, and both are really good. The manga has a wonderful art almost as good as Toriyama. So you can know that you are gonna enjoy this manga even if you already watched the anime.

quick pacing, good quality

Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2019

interesting, diverges from the anime.
battle of gods arc goes by much faster and honestly some of the charm of beerus is lost.
resurrection F is only mentioned in passing and is basically skipped.

I’m alright with both of these factors because I imagine toyotaro would rather you just watch the films in their full glory and then continue on to the rest of the story which is well paced and comfortable (the Universe 6 arc)

this manga is not bad at all and idk who could be toriyama’s successor if not toyotaro.

champa and vados are introduced to the reader much sooner which is good, especially to help flow from battle of gods into U6 Tournament.

I suppose my review sort of stands for the whole Super manga as a whole, but I would recommend buying it.
(Unless you already have Super on DVD, in which case honestly you’re not missing much. If you don’t have the anime, though, definitely get the manga and watch the show for free online somewhere)

Last time on Dragon Ball Z...

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2017

I'd been looking forward to this since the anime started airing in 2015. It feels very fast paced and its a nice continuation from where Z ended with the defeat of Buu.

(spoiler warning)
First off, this 1 volume covers a lot of ground, very quickly. It assumes you've either seen the movies or watched the anime since those came first. In the Z mangas, arcs like the namek/frieza arc and the androids/cell arc would span multiple chapters and volumes. That made it feel like the story progressed naturally without it going too fast. You wanted to keep reading to see what would happen next. In this volume alone, it covers the Battle of Gods arc in about 3 chapters, and basically goes over the Resurrection F arc in literally 3-4 panels... and then goes straight to the Universe 6 arc

It covers all that ground a little too fast for my taste. I get it that the anime came first, but those arcs at least spanned 13+ episodes each. That could have been recreated with great artwork across at least 2-3 volumes, but instead either rushes it or glosses over it. I'm not sure if this was Toriyama's idea or the artist didn't want to do all that work, but I'm hoping the remainder of the Universe 6 arc, the Future Trunks arc and Universe survival arc are spanned out with more care and not just glossed over so we can get great fight art

Despite my complaints its still great to have a canon continuation to the end of Z. The art is great, very faithful to Toriyama's original work. There's some entertaining dialogue evocative of Toriyama's spark when he was writing Z, and overall, its still a great first volume to have on the shelf. Can't wait for the second volume to sit there next to my first on the shelf

Your Wish Has Been Granted

The long wait is over, Dragon Ball Super's manga is here and boy does it cover a lot of ground in a short period of time. It manages to cover Battle of God's, briefly go over the resurrection of Freeza and even start the tournament between universe 6 and 7. But despite covering that much the pacing doesn't feel super rushed.

Though the manga wasn't drawn by Toriyama, Toyotaro the new artist does a great job of giving the series the classic Dragon Ball look and feel. It's also fun that manga manages to add additional details to the anime's events. In short this is a must read for fans of Dragon Ball.

For those unfamiliar with the Dragon Ball series, Super might not be the best starting point as it expects you to be familiar with Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. Also a note for anime only watchers of the series you will notice that some names of characters are different, so that might take a little getting use to.
