ABOUT THE SERIES


The Dragon Ball Trilogy consists of Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z and the upcoming Dragon Ball GT. The Dragon Ball franchise was originally developed in Japan as a Japanese comic or Manga in the 1980's. Since that time, it has created an international phenomenon spawning over 500 episodes and generating over $3 billion in related merchandising sales. The immensely popular series has hit number one in many countries including the United States, Japan, France, Spain, Hong Kong, Canada, and Mexico.

 

Akira Toriyama, the original creator of Dragon Ball, was involved in the concept, approval and character designs for Dragon Ball Z, as well as Dragon Ball GT. Dragon Ball began as a comedy, but soon the fighting took over. Dragon 
Ball ran 153 episodes becoming more serious with every episode. Dragon Ball Z was the second part for the Trilogy. Dragon Ball GT has been established to continue to series and carries the same aspects of its prequel (Dragon Ball Z), entertaining yet subtly reinforcing the important concept of good versus bad. It teaches important character virtues such as teamwork, loyalty, trustworthiness, etc. The incredible storyline and the depth of the characters within Dragon Ball GT contribute to a strong residual stance in the retail market. As in Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT is the story of our hero Goku; and his friends battling evil forces throughout the universe as they search for the black dragon balls. But there is a catch. They must gather all the new dragon balls within one year in order to save their beloved home.
