dragon ball vol.15 review

In the series of books I read there were really strong martial artist. Also there were these small spheres about the size of softballs when you collect all seven they grant you one wish. So in the story they go around and collect them. The main character is Goku. He is a fourteen year old. Most other characters say it makes you happy to be around him. To compare me and him you would have to compare where we grew up he grew up in the woods I grew up in Bethalto. Well Goku is really confident. I guess you could say we are the same there. He always wears a orange Gi and a blue under shirt. He also always wears a blue belt and armbands. I loved this book it was soooo good. My favorite part was the world tournaments called The Strongest Under The Heavens. I liked it because I like fighting. I recommend these books to any one who likes action and adventure.

The 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament!

Okay, this volume continues from the last one, the finalists for the Tenkaichi Budokai have been selected. Our characters, now adults like at the beginning of DBZ, going to face each other in some tough battles. There's some great fights--- Piccolo, er, Ma Jr. vs. Kuririn, Goku vs. Tenshinhan, and Yamcha vs. Shen, and thankfully, unlike the DB anime there's no stalling. It gets right down to business first thing, so it's not a 3-episode wait between each battle. This is where things heat up, and the events that directly lead into Dragonball Z will begin here. If you're a fan like me who wants to check out what happened before Goku knew he was an alien, I especially suggest checking out this edition.
