Dragon Ball
ドラゴンボール
Synopsis
Goku Son is a young boy living alone in the wilderness when he meets Bulma, a girl searching for the legendary Dragon Balls. These rare artifacts are said to grant one wish to whoever gathers them all. Bulma wants to collect them to wish for her ideal partner. Goku possesses one of these orbs but refuses to hand it over. Bulma proposes a deal: he can accompany her on her journey if she is allowed to use his Dragon Ball. Thus, their incredible adventure begins. Their path is not lonely; they soon encounter Master Muten-Roshi and his student Kuririn, both of whom Goku trains with to improve his abilities for an upcoming World Martial Arts Tournament. However, the power to grant any wish makes the Dragon Balls a target for those with evil intentions. To stop anyone who might misuse this ancient power, they continue to grow stronger, using their developing skills to protect the people they meet along their travels.
