Son Goku Evolution
His technique crushes the earth, his body is stronger than steel, and his soul is as pure as the sky... Introducing the history of the growth and evolution of Son Goku, the super warrior who saved the earth and the universe!!

0-year-old
Son Goku is born on Planet Vegeta!
Son Goku's real name is Kakarot. Born on the planet Vegeta as the child of the low-class Saiyan warrior Bardock. His mother is unknown, and his fighting strength at that time was only 2. Shortly after his birth, he was launched into space in a capsule to destroy the Earth.

After arriving on Earth, he was picked up by martial arts master Son Gohan. He was a mischievous baby that reflected the temperament of a Saiyan, but after falling into a valley and inflicting a wound on his head, he became gentle.

Gohan finding baby Kakarot image: Son Gohan who picked up Goku. Perhaps because he has an easy-going personality, he doesn't care about Goku's tail at all and raises the baby Goku as his own grandson.

12 years old ~ 15 years old
Days of Encounters and Adventures

Son Goku's Ability
Son Goku, a warrior who defeated numerous enemies with his indomitable fighting spirit and strong body and became the strongest in the galaxy. Here, we'll introduce the techniques and special abilities that Goku unleashes against powerful enemies, including the theatrical version!

Kamehameha
A technique that gathers energy in the body in one place and releases it all at once. It is basically released from both hands, but you can also use your feet. Since it is a mass of your own mind, you can also control the trajectory to some extent. It is the most standard technique that Goku has been able to use since he was young, and he has used it countless times.

Kid Goku using KHH image: A young Goku sees Kamehameha from Kame Sennin. Imitating it, he quickly mastered his tricks.

The basic technique of Kamesen-ryu!!
Kamehameha was originally invented by Master Roshi. It's a technique that anyone can use if they master how to use Ki, and besides Goku, Gohan, Yamcha, and Krillin can also use it. It's a technique that Cell and Majin Buu also used.

SSjin 2 Gohan firing KHH image: Qigong bullets fired with both hands!!
It can be used by anyone who uses the Turtle Senryu, such as Gohan. The power changes depending on the strength of the user's ki.

Kamehameha THE MOVIE
Even in the movie version, Kamehameha defeats various enemies!! In the theatrical version "The Incredible Strongest vs Strongest", Super Saiyan Kamehameha was unveiled against Cooler for the first time, and was named Super Kamehameha.

SSjin Goku using KHH vs Coola image: The Super Kamehameha pushed Coola up from the Earth to the Sun and extinguished him.

Genkidama
Gather and collide, the power of life!!
A great technique that gradually collects and releases the energy of everything that exists in the universe, such as humans, animals, plants such as grass and trees, nests, air and stars themselves. During his training on Planet Kaio, he was directly taught by King Kai. It has great destructive power, but its weakness is that it stays defenseless for a long time while accumulating energy.

Vegeta hit by the Genkidama image: Used for the first time in the battle against Vegeta. After that, it was used against strong enemies such as Frieza and Majin Buu. The collected energy forms a ball and floats above the person using the technique.

Anyone with "righteous" can use it!
Only Goku can create Genkidama, but the advantage of Genkidama is that anyone who has no evil spirit can use it. On the other hand, when Goku is in Super Saiyan state, it becomes impossible for Goku to create Genkidama because evil spirits are mixed in with him.

Gohan bouncing back the Genkidama image: The energetic energy itself can also be passed on to others and manipulated.

Genkidama THE MOVIE
Used against Dr. Willow, Turles, and Slug. In particular, in the merged No.13 battle of "Extreme Battle!! Three Great Super Saiyans", he performed the feat of becoming a Super Saiyan and absorbing Genkidama.

Movie 7 SSjin Goku image: Super Saiyan Goku in "Extreme Battle!! ~", which unconsciously absorbs the energy of Genkidama.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_16-17.jpg


Kaioken
A technique that instantly amplifies the Ki within the body, doubling power, speed, defense, etc. It emits a red aura when used. Unreasonable doubling puts a heavy burden on the body, and there is a danger that the body itself will be destroyed, but Goku used Kaioken many times to exceed the limit.

Goku's special technique!
Double your power with a red aura!
Goku acquired the Kaioken through his training on the planet Kaio. As the name of the technique suggests, it was invented by King Kai of the North, but only Goku was able to actually master it. His technique of doubling his fighting power seems to be rare even in the entire universe.

Kaioken x3 Goku hitting Vegeta image: He He used Kaioken for the first time against Nappa, and used 4x Kaioken against Vegeta.

Goku chasing Bubbles image: He trained on the planet Kaio, which has 10 times the gravity of Earth, and mastered Kaioken and Genkidama.

Kaioken THE MOVIE
The first use of Kaioken in the movie version, It's the match against Dr. Willow in "The Strongest Guy in the World". Because it doubles its power and speed at once, it was often used in battles against powerful enemies.

Goku using Kaioken x3 vs Dr. Uiru image:Kaioken Kamehameha is used for Dr. Willow, who has a body that repels Kamehameha waves!

Instant Transmission
After escaping from Planet Namek, Goku learned this technique from the people of Yardrat. You can search for the Ki of someone you know and move to where they are in an instant. Conversely, it's impossible to teleport to a place you don't feel like knowing about. It doesn't matter where you can move, whether it's this world or the other world.

The usage is unlimited!
Move freely between this world and that world!!
This is not a technique that directly attacks the opponent. Instead, it can be used in a wide range of fighting styles, for example, by moving instantaneously and unleashing a Kamehameha wave.

Goku with glasses image: If it is about the size of the earth, it can be moved in an instant. Kame House, which is 10,000 kilometers away, came and went in an instant.

Goku teleporting with Cell image: Goku seems to have a habit of lightly pressing his forehead with two fingers when teleporting.

Instant Transmission THE MOVIE
In "Clash!! 10 Billion Power ~", Metal Cooler also uses teleportation, and even battles in the moving space are depicted. In the theatrical version, teleportation seems to be interpreted as "passing through a different space that transcends time."

SSjin Goku and Metal Coola image: A moving space battle between Goku and Metal Cooler. Metal Cooler can move instantaneously with the power of machines.

Son Goku's Personality
Son Goku has defeated a formidable enemy plotting space domination, the strongest combat life form, and even a strange cripple. A compact explanation of the "qualities and personality" that the strongest hero was born with!

Qualities
Goku, a super warrior with an outstanding sense of fighting, grew stronger each time he repeatedly fought against his formidable opponents. Does that mean that he was not only a "Saiyan who loves fighting", but that he originally had "genius qualities" that surpassed even Vegeta's?

Fighting is proof of life
When he was young, he had a tail, and when he saw the full moon, he had the ability to transform into a great monkey. Even after cutting the tail, it is possible to transform into a combat form called Super Saiyan.

Goku's standing pose vs Vegeta image: The belligerent side that makes you want to fight when you see a strong enemy shows your original Saiyan temperament.

Oozaru Goku destroying Pilaf's castle image: Great monkey transformation is one of the traits Saiyans are born with. Goku also transformed several times when he was young without knowing it.

SSjin 3 Goku vs Gotenks-Boo image: Being able to transform into the legendary "Super Saiyan" is proof that Goku is a limited combat elite.

Personality
Excited to meet a powerful enemy!
He has an easy-going personality that doesn't care about details. No matter how old he is, he is simple and straightforward. Other than fighting and eating, he doesn't care much. For some reason, he has the property of attracting bad guys!?

Son Gohan
The hidden possibilities are endless! The ever-evolving super warrior!!
The first child born between Goku and Chichi.
The name "Gohan" was given by Goku after his parent's name.

A Saiyan who surpasses Super Saiyan with anger. Therefore, the eyes are sharp.

Gohan vs Freeza's subordinate image: Despite being a child, he boasts top-class combat power among the super warriors living on Earth. He's an easy win if he's just a jerk.

Personality
You like studying more than fighting!?
Originally, Gohan was a kind-hearted child who couldn't even imagine fighting someone else. His hobby is reading, and his future dream is to be a scholar. If peace had continued, Gohan wouldn't have fought.

Ability
Masenko
Originally his master, Piccolo's specialty. It is believed that Piccolo taught him when he was preparing for the arrival of the Saiyans.

This is a technique that Son Goku in his form liked to use, and Gohan also inherited it. Originally the original technique of Kame Sennin, Goku's master.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_38-39.jpg


Son Goten
A junior who inherits the blood of the strongest warrior! Strength is bottomless!?
Son Goku and Chichi's second child, in other words, Gohan's younger brother. Since Goku had already passed away when he was born, he grows up without even knowing his father's face. He doesn't know how to use his powers, but like Gohan, he has extremely high fighting potential.

Goten's back and forth design: From his facial features, hairstyle, and voice to his innocent personality, he looks exactly like his father, Goku, when he was young.

Goten holding a rock design: Saiyan's unique tail was cut off immediately after birth. Therefore, he will not become a great ape.

Trunks vs Goten image: He is good friends with Trunks, Vegeta's son and one year older than him! Since they are close in ability, they often play fighting games....

Super Saiyan
Without any training, he became a Super Saiyan on his own. He seems to have learned it while playing with Trunks, who is also a Saiyan.

SSjin Goten flying image: Perhaps due to Trunks' influence, he doesn't have the sweetness of Gohan. When it comes to fighting, all you have to do is rush forward!

EoZ Goten design: Goten ten years after defeating Majin Buu. He changed his hairstyle because he was mistaken for his father.

Personallity
Serious competition feels like play!?

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_40-41.jpg


Son Goku's Friends
Introducing the many friends who fought, competed with, and supported Son Goku! In addition to Goku, we will expand the scope to introduce people who were related to his son Gohan.

Vegeta
The proud Saiyan elite! The strongest is me!
Prince of the Saiyan home planet Vegeta. He is an elite warrior who inherited the name of his home planet. His fighting talent is unparalleled among the Saiyans, and he had been a genius, but ever since he was defeated by Goku on Earth, he has been burning for revenge.

Vegeta's Androids Saga design: In the battle against Frieza, he fought in this form alongside the warriors of Earth.

Saiyan Saga Vegeta image: Originally, he was a ruthless invader who came to Earth in search of the Dragon Balls...

Personality
High pride is the secret of strength!
Vegeta's wickedness didn't give the impression of being mean, and she always challenged anyone she saw as worthy of a fight head-on. That's why, whenever she felt she wasn't strong enough, she trained, and as a result, she became stronger and stronger. There you can feel the aesthetics of a man who sticks to his pride.

Vegeta training in the spaceship image: hearing that Goku trained in a room with 100x gravity, Vegeta challenges 300x gravity!

Vegeta coming out of the RoSaT: The target in his eyes is always Goku!

Boo Saga Vegeta's design: The battle suit used when participating in the Tenkaichi Budokai held just before the battle with Majin Buu.

Super Saiyan
The "purity that seeks strength and the "anger that cannot exceed the limit are fused to become the long-sought Super Saiyan!

Great Ape

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_42-43.jpg


Piccolo
Powered up after assimilating twice! It's a super warrior's trump card!!
A different personality, Piccolo Daimao, who was born from the evil spirit split from the god of the earth... That's the alter ego that was created on the brink of death. Although he calls himself a demon, he is actually a Namekian. He once planned to conquer Earth, but after the Saiyans attacked him, he joined forces with Goku and the others.

Piccolo's driving lesson design: Casual fashion that can be worshiped only once in episode 125. Something dissatisfied...

Piccolo and God image: He is on very bad terms with the God of Earth, who he used to share the same personality with. But as time passed, their hatred for each other faded.

Piccolo training with Gohan image: Piccolo is Gohan's mentor. He is tough on himself, but he is also tough on others, which makes him a good teacher.

Piccolo training with himself image: Piccolo's standard training menu is the alter-ego kumite. He sometimes fights against multiple alter egos.

Piccolo, who can no longer catch up with Goku and the others through training alone, resorts to new means of strengthening. A Namekian's power increases dramatically by assimilating with other powerful Namekians. Piccolo evolved into a Super Namekian by assimilating twice!

Androids Saga Piccolo's design: Through assimilation, he was completely revived as a Namekian before he split with God.

Piccolo fusing with Nail image: First, he assimilates for the first time with Nail, the strongest warrior on the planet Namek, who was defeated by Frieza!

Piccolo fusing with God image: He decides to assimilate for the second time with God, whom he had hated so much. He obtains power that surpasses that of a Super Saiyan.

Personallity
Demon of hard work, not just talent!
Piccolo devotes most of his free time to training. That stoicness was something that was not seen during the Great Demon King era. He does not indulge in his gifted talents, he calmly analyzes the situation, sets goals and strives for them. That clarity is probably the reason why it functions as a command tower for the super warriors.

Ability
Makankosappo
Concentrate your whole body's energy on one point on your fingertips and aim at the target. The energy is condensed, so the effect is tremendous, but it takes time to fire.

Regenerative ability
An ability that Piccolo often uses for fakes, as long as the cells do not completely disappear, the damaged part can be restored. However, it will consume a lot of energy.

Formerly Goku's greatest rival!
In the story before "Z", Piccolo in the Great Demon King era was exactly the incarnation of evil, and he was also the strongest warrior next to Goku! He plans to conquer the world with power and fear, but he is defeated by Goku when he was a boy. From then on he was killed and his ambitions crushed.

Baby Piccolo image: The old demon king left an egg of himself on the brink of death. That is the current Piccolo.

Goku vs Piccolo in the 23rd TB: After growing from an egg, he challenged Goku to a revenge battle at the Tenkaichi Budokai, but was defeated for the second time!

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_44-45.jpg


Krillin
The strongest man on earth!
A disciple of Master Roshi, and a close friend of Goku who has trained with him since childhood. He is cunning and sometimes cowardly, but when his friends are in trouble, he has the courage and warmth to go to the rescue even if he is an insurmountable enemy. He still cares about his short stature.

BoDB Krillin design: Krillin when he first met Goku. He was very cocky at the time and had a strong rivalry with Goku.

Boo Saga Krillin's design: After finishing the battle with Cell, he married Android 18. He also has a daughter and has a sash at Kame House.

EoZ Krillin's design: Another 10 years after the battle with Majin Buu. He has wrinkles and has become a normal father.

Injured Krillin image: He even attacked outrageous monsters such as Saiyans, Frieza, and Androids! He is the man who fought the best among the earthlings.

Personallity
Goku's best friend
Among the many super warriors, Krillin is probably the one Goku feels most comfortable with. Krillin's cheerful personality is one of the reasons, but more importantly, the experience of spending time together with Kame-Sen'nin during their difficult training period is still a very precious memory for both of them.

Ability
Kienzan
Raise your hand in surprise and throw your whole body's energy into a disk shape on top of it. Anything that touches the light will be cut in half! However, since the speed is slow, you have to think and release it so that it cannot be avoided.

Tenshinhan
The first disciple of Tsurusennin, Kame-sennin's rival. Although a skilled fighter, he had been fighting cold-bloodedly under the teachings of Tsurusennin. After a battle with Goku, he reformed and later grew into a fine super-soldier.

Ability
Tayoken
Light up the whole body with Ki to blind the opponent. It's a useful technique when you want to buy time, and Goku and Krillin have borrowed this technique!

Tenshinhan elbowing a Saibaman image: He later trained under God and King Kai, but his turn came around only occasionally.

Yamcha
Among the super warriors, Goku's oldest acquaintance. However, he gradually begins to show a difference in ability from Goku and the others, and soon he will be more active in support than in combat.

Yamcha playing baseball image: He used to be a hard man, but he has somehow turned into a light-hearted, easy-going character. He is such a great warrior that he trained on the world of Kaio....

Chiaotzu
A psychic boy who loves Tenshinhan like his real older brother. He was also active as a super warrior, and even tried to save the earth by blowing himself up in the fight against the Saiyans!

Yajirobe
He's strong and a master swordsman, but he has no motivation. His achievement in cutting off Vegeta's tail is his greatest achievement. Before he knew it, he became Karin's companion.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_46-47.jpg


Trunks Cell Edition
In order to create a bright future... A Super Saiyan who has appeared beyond time!
A 17-year-old young man who came to the present age with a time machine from a devastated future world overrun with androids. His true identity is Vegeta and Bulma's son. In order to change the tragic future, he seeks salvation and brings Goku information about the future. He is also good at fighting, transforming into a Super Saiyan and killing Frieza in an instant. He also participates in the fight against Cell.

SSjin Future Trunks image: When it comes to fighting, he has sharp eyes, but his personality is so gentle and serious that you wouldn't think he's Vegeta's son.

Trunks who changed the future
In the future he grew up in, the world was about to be destroyed by androids, and there were few super-warriors who could fight properly... He is a young man with a strong sense of justice who lamented the world that was too cruel and embarked on a journey through the ages, even though he thinks it is not right to change history.

Kid Future Trunks image: Trunks agonized over the world that he could not change with his own power.

Trunks Majin Buu Edition
A modern version of Trunks raised in a peaceful world! Trunks was raised with a lot of love in a peaceful era where the threat of Cell has passed. Perhaps because he's still young, he's much more selfish than Trunks from the future. However, thanks to Vegeta's direct training, his martial arts are at a high level despite being a child.

Personallity
He is the "older brother" of Goten!
He is good friends with Goten, Goku's son, and they often play together by becoming Super Saiyans and playing battle. Trunks is one year older than Goten, so he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve and plays pranks on him!

Trunks and Goten eating image: Goten also looks forward to playing with Trunks every day.

Kid Trunks' jacket image: In casual clothes, he's really just a normal kid. Thanks to Bulma's clothing instruction?

Super Saiyan
Such a child becomes a Super Saiyan. Half Saiyans have fast growth in fighting ability.

Gotenks

Gimme a little overconfidence!? Childhood savior of the world!
A super warrior born from the fusion of Son Goten and Trunks. He has a very innocent personality and unleashes techniques and tactics one after another that two children consulted while playing. There is fear that you don't know what to do!?

Super Saiyan
When both of them combine in the Super Saiyan state, they take on this form. Only their power is greater than Gohan's.

Super Saiyan 3
You can easily get used to the strongest form that Goku has worked so hard to reach!?

SSjin 3 Gotenks kicking Evil Boo image: I feel like a TV hero! The fact that he can attack the terrifying Majin Buu while laughing is reliable...

Many powerful special moves!?
A child's imagination is formidable! Is this the atmosphere that everything you thought about was adopted?

Eldest house image: eldest house. Perhaps because his death was near, he didn't move much from here.

Muri
One of the seven elders on Planet Namek, and the elder of Dende's village. He is brave and has good judgment. After his eldest death, he took over the position.

Nail
The strongest warrior type on Planet Namek. He battles Frieza and is seriously injured, but when he meets Piccolo on the brink of death, he assimilates and gives him strength.

Porunga
A giant dragon that appears when you collect the Dragon Balls from Planet Namek. Unlike Earth's Shenron, he can grant up to three wishes, but it is impossible to revive many people at once.

Porunga's image: Much larger than the Earth Dragon. He won't listen to your wishes unless they're in the language of Planet Namek.

Dende
A Namekian child who lived in the village of Muri. He is about to be killed by Frieza, but since Gohan saves him, he will support the super warriors of Earth. He has healing powers and can completely restore the strength of a dying person. He is a prodigy of the Balaur tribe and can even create the Dragon Balls.

Dende's designs: Dende as a child (left side of photo). After he grew up, he became the god of the earth (on the right side of the photo).

Dende, Gohan and Krillin image: On Planet Namek, which was invaded by Frieza, he met Gohan and Krillin and became friends. It's thanks to Dende that the eldest of Planet Namek trusted the Earthlings.

Many Namekians have special abilities, but their lineage can be broadly classified into the following two. Through the successful cooperation of these two types of psychics, the Namekians have maintained a long history and tradition.

Type 1 Dragon race
Representative example: Dende, Piccolo
Although they are not good at fighting, they have special abilities such as healing, and the genius of the part can create dragon balls. In rare cases, there are those who have fighting power that surpasses the warrior type, like Piccolo.

Type 2 Warrior type
Representative example: Nail
A minority among the Namekians, the majority of whom belong to the dragon race. They don't have any mysterious special abilities, but instead have strong fighting aptitude.

Kaioshin
To be precise, the Kaioshin in the eastern galaxy. He is far greater than King Kai. He notices signs of Majin Buu's resurrection, and in order to stop it, he enlists the help of the Earth's super-warriors. When he visited the Tenkaichi Budokai venue, he used the pseudonym "Shin".

Kibito
He is a priest in the service of the Kaioshin, and is quite an ardent priest. He is as strict as his face, and will never tolerate any disrespectful behavior toward the Kaioshins. He is strong and brusque, but he is a good person at heart.

Old Kaioshin
The old man who held the position 15 generations before the current Kaioshin. When Gohan pulled out the Zed Sword, it seems to have been sealed there and was revived. He is able to draw out a person's potential to the utmost limit.

Old Kaioshin and Gohan image: He is in the process of drawing out Gohan's potential. It takes a long time, and the method is very fishy! As expected, Gohan is a bit angry...

This is how the heavenly ranks are!!
There are various gods in the other world, but their chain of command is surprisingly controlled. With the Great Kaioshin watching over the entire galaxy at the top, there are Kaioshins and Kaios who manage the four galaxies in the north, south, east, and west, and the Great Kaio exists as a link between the two. Since there are many gods of each planet, in terms of personnel, Kaio and above are regarded as extremely great beings.

Pink Box: Who are the Saiyans destroyers of the universe
Saiyans who calls themselves "the greatest warriors race in the universe".

And their deaths would mean the disappearance of the Dragon Balls, cutting off any hope of Yamcha and the others coming back to life.

God and Popo image: God entrusted everything to Mr. Popo and died.

When it says "Gohan vs Dabura image: Gohan has grown into a super warrior that even surpasses his father, Goku. Demonstrate your power for the sake of the earth!" is it saying Gohan (vs Dabura) > Goku?

Well, this is an anime guide and not a manga guide. Maybe, because Gohan was a SSjin 2 vs Dabura before Goku transformed into SSjin 2 vs Majin Vegeta? I dunno. Can be just a guidebook bullshit.

Making of the cover illustration
The cover illustration for this book is a special project in which the rough original was drawn by Mr. Toriyama, and the crimping, coloring, and finishing were done by Mr. Nakatsuru. Here, we introduce the making of the illustration! The editorial side of the magazine asked Mr. Toriyama, who said "Drawing pictures is troublesome" (laugh), to do a rough original drawing, and he readily agreed, saying "If Mr. Nakatsuru does the finishing touches, I'll do it."

Cover illustration 1: The editorial side requested "Goku the Super Saiyan, Gohan, Trunks, and Vegeta in the center. A color version with simple coloring to see the balance of colors also exists.

Cover illustration 2: Mr. Nakatsuru's cleanup where each character is divided into layers. Vegeta's shoulder rest was slightly extended according to Sensei's opinion. The teacher also said, "As expected of Nakatsuru-kun. A wonderful finish."

Cover illustration 3: Completed illustration. Mr. Nakatsuru was also in charge of coloring. In this book cover, Vegeta's position was slightly shifted due to the layout, and brush processing was applied to make each character stand out.

Akira Toriyama Anime Design Collection
Introducing the design drawings and idea memos drawn by Akira Toriyama for the anime TV series and theatrical version!

TV SERIES
Super Saiyan Goku

It seems that it was drawn for the animation reference of the TV version, or for the theatrical version "The Strongest vs. Strongest", in which Super Saiyans appear for the first time. The blonde hair is finished in a stronger yellow than the original.

SSjin Goku vs Androids 19 and 20 image: Anime Super Saiyan. Reproduce the image of the original aura.

SSjin Goku big design: His eyes, which were green in the original color manuscript, are colored red in this illustration.

Toei Animation version pattern collection
4 versions of SSjin Goku left side of the left page: Celluloid images supposedly drawn by Toei Animation for study. The color tones of the illumination of the aura are changed, and the aura itself is also added in an attempt to reproduce the Super Saiyan.

Primitive Saiyan and Tsufuru
His memo that became the basis of the history of the Saiyans that Kaio talked about in episode 20. The culture and history of planet Vegeta, the process of development of the Saiyans, etc. are described in detail.

Tsufuru and Primitive Saiyans drawing image: Toriyama-sensei usually only vaguely thinks about these backbone settings in his head and doesn't leave them in his notes. Was it compiled at the request of the anime staff?

Primitive Saiyan and Tsufuru image: Based on Mr. Toriyama's memo above, the history of Planet Vegeta was told in episode 20 of the anime version.

Several draft pages image: It also touches on the relationship between Tenshinhan and lunch, Piccolo's alter ego special training, and hell under the snake road.

Original Episode
It describes the special training of super warriors during the year from the battle with Raditz until the Saiyans attack. It seems that it was written in early 1989 because of the existence of Gregory on King Kai's planet and the background setting of Saibamen.

Yamcha playing baseball image: Yamcha's part-time job as a baseball player was Toriyama-sensei's idea.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_136-137.jpg


Paikuhan
Goku's rival character who appeared in the afterlife's best martial arts tournament from episode 195. He also appears in the theatrical version "Fusion of Resurrection!!".

Paikuhan's big design image: He is a piccolo-type character, and even in the anime's setting materials, there is a memo stating that his facial expression is based on a piccolo.

Paikuhan's profile design image: Paikuhan is actually the name of a Chinese dish.

Paikuhan's animated image: Anime version of Paikuhan. It's almost the same as Toriyama's design, but since it's a character from the other world, an angel ring was added.

Grand Kaio

He is the Grand Kaio who oversees the four Kai, and proposed to hold the atherlife's best martial arts tournament. Like Paikuhan, he also appears in the movie version "Fusion of Resurrection!!~".

Grand Kaio's design #1: The cloak and hat symbolize the height of rank.

Grand Kaio's design #2: The American-style clothes were also designed by Toriyama-sensei.

Animated Grand Kaio image: Anime version. The chair on which the Grand Kaio sits was designed with the atmosphere of an American car.

Cell
The most powerful enemy of the Android Arc is Cell. This illustration was created at the request of the anime staff, and was colored by the teacher on a copy of the door illustration from the original work (No. 362). The original work and the anime were running almost simultaneously, but since the colors were not known in the black-and-white weekly serialization, this kind of color scheme sample was necessary.

Cell's evolution design: Cell egg on the right, chrysalis in the center, and Cell 1st form on the left. With reference to this coloring sample, the color scheme of the anime version was decided.

Cell killing Future Trunks image: Anime version of Cell. A unique SE (sound effect) is added to the sound of his footsteps.

Is Cell a troubled character?
As you can see in the illustration above, Cell has spots all over his body. Toriyama, who designed the design, had a hard time drawing the spots in the weekly serialization and thought, "Oh shoot", but the same difficulty was faced by the animation staff. Moreover, since animation at that time could not be processed by computer graphics as it is today, the spots were hand-drawn one by one on all the original moving images, and it is said that the effort involved was extraordinary.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_138-139.jpg


TV Special
Toriyama-sensei also designed the Saiyan warriors that appeared in the TV special "Final Solitary Final Battle". However, sub-characters such as Alien Kanassa were designed by the anime staff.

Barrdock and friends
Drawn by Toriyama-sensei based on the anime staff's rough design (the anime version's rough is on page 102).

Bardock firing a blast image: Anime version of Bardock. He looks just like Goku, but his personality is rough and his tone is rough.

King Vegeta
Vegeta's father has appeared several times in TV specials and TV series. King Vegeta conquered the Tsufuru people and established the Saiyan kingdom in a single generation. He looks exactly like his son, Vegeta, according to the setting that "Saiyans don't have many facial types."

King Vegeta's face design: Toriyama's design drawing. It seems that only the face was set and the whole body and costume were not drawn.

King Vegeta and Freeza image: Anime version. He wears a Frieza army battle jacket and has the Saiyan royal mark on his chest.

Dr. Uiru
Appearing in the theatrical version "The Strongest Guy in the World", he is an enemy who wants the body of the strongest Goku. Although he was depicted as a gigantic mecha in the movie, his size was not specified at the design stage. In addition to the brain, you can also see things like internal organs in the transparent head.

Dr Uiru's design: In the animated version, lights are added to the face (?).

Dr. Uiru knocking out Piccolo image: Anime version. He had a body that was immune to Kamehameha waves, but was defeated by Goku's Genkidama.

Slug
Slug appears in the movie "Super Saiyan: Son Goku," and is portrayed as an evil super Namek alien. Like Piccolo, he was depicted as a powerful enemy with the ability to grow to a giant size and regenerate. Namekuji means Slug in English.

Slug's design: The scar on his face is also Toriyama-sensei's idea. He seems to be a warrior-type Namekian.

Slug holding Goku by his shirt image: Anime version. It was devised so as not to be recognized as a Namekian with a helmet.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_140-141.jpg


Divine Tree
Theatrical version "Super Decisive Battle for the Whole Earth" A giant cosmic tree planted on Earth by the enemy Turles, who has a face that looks just like Goku. It's rare for Toriyama-sensei to create designs for anything other than characters in the "Dragon Ball" series.

Tree of Might design: It also describes the fruit of the divine spirit tree and the characteristics of its appearance.

Animated Tree of Might image: An image illustration of the anime version of the divine tree.

Cooler
This enemy appeared in the movie version of "The Incredibly Strongest vs. the Strongest" and is set to be Frieza's elder brother. The introduction of an enemy related to the TV series had the advantage of speeding up the tempo of the story by eliminating the need to explain the enemy characters.

Initial Cooler's design: As expected of Frieza's older brother, he was designed with a similar image to Frieza.

Cooler sitting on his chair image: Anime version. He is voiced by Ryuusei Nakao, the same voice actor as Frieza.

Final Form Cooler design: Cooler's final form. He was set as a strong enemy that can transform one stage more than Freeza.

Sauzer
Armored squadron leader. Just before the release, Weekly Shonen Jump published a backstory that said, "He's from the same star system as Ginyu Special Sentai Jeice" and "He fought with Ginyu for the position of captain of the armored squadron."

Saluzer's design: Although he is a handsome warrior, his personality is ruthless and cruel.

Neize
A warrior who is confident in his speed. The backstory of his race, which evolved from amphibians and has a power-generating organ in his body, was published in Weekly Shonen Jump just before the release of the film.

Neize's design: In the anime version, a special ability that "can store the head inside the body like a turtle" is added.

Dore
In Weekly Shonen Jump just before the release of the movie, there was an article about his backstory: "He used to be a wrestler in the Universe Pro Wrestling Federation. He kills all opponents during a match." "He is tough because he is from magma planet."

Dore's design: He is equipped with a helmet-type scouter different from the other members.

Cooler Armored Squadron
A combat team under Cooler. Wearing the same type of battle jacket, it is arranged in a well-balanced manner with Sauzer, a warrior of skill, Dore, a power warrior, and Neize, a speed warrior. It is a combat team in the same position as the Ginyu Special Sentai of Frieza.

Sauzer and Neize image: Anime version. Unlike the Ginyu Special Sentai combat jacket, the shoulder pads are on the left side.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_142-143.jpg


Android 13
Appeared in the theatrical version "Extreme Battle!! Three Great Super Saiyans". It seems that Toriyama-sensei's colored version of No. 13 also exists, but unfortunately we couldn't find it.

Android 13's design: In the anime version, a Red Ribbon Army mark was added to his left chest.

Android 14 (Android 15 in the movie)
In the play, he is Android No. 15, but Toriyama-sensei's design drawing has a note saying that he is No. 14, so I treated him as "No. 14" here.

Android 14 's(Android 15 in the movie) design: All three costumes have the Red Ribbon Army mark.

Android 15 (Android 14 in the movie)
As with No. 14, there was Toriyama-sensei's note on the design drawing, "No. 15." The name change seems to be due to the animation staff.

Android 14's design: He was portrayed as an eerie enemy who attacks Goku and others while remaining silent and expressionless.

Androids 14 and 15 vs Future Trunks image: Androids 14 and 15 mainly battle Trunks and Vegeta and lose.

Merged No. 13
This is a figure of Android 13 that has absorbed the parts of Android 14 and 15 and transformed itself. There seems to be a coloring version of this Merged 13, but we could not find it either.

Super 13's design:13 absorbs 14 and 15's computer chips and power reactor and transforms.

Super 13 using S.S Deadly Bomber image: Compared to the pre-transformation version, the design of the face and the color scheme of the body of Merged 13 differ greatly.

Broli
Broli appeared in the theatrical version of "Burn Up • A Fierce Fight • A Violent Fight • A Super Fierce Fight". The creation of "Legendary Super Saiyan" was introduced at Saiyans.

LSSjin Broli vs SSjin Goku image: Anime version. Broly is an enemy that appeared in the three theatrical versions.

Bass Broli design: He is a true "Super Saiyan" who loves blood and slaughter.

SSjin and LSSjin Broli designs: He transforms into two stages of Super Saiyan and Legendary Super Saiyan.

Tapion
Appeared in "Dragon Fist Explosion!! If Goku doesn't do it, who will?" In the setting of a hero from a thousand years ago in the southern galaxy, the sword on his back is handed over to the boy Trunks.

Tapion's design: Due to the setting of being a hero in a different galaxy, his hairstyle is also very different from that of an earthling.

Minotia: Appeared in "Dragon Fist Explosion!! If Goku doesn't do it, who will", Tapion's younger brother on the left. He has the same type of sword as Tapion, but this is a setting that was given to him by God.

Minotia's design: It seems that only "Dragon Fist Explosion!!~" drew guest characters in the theatrical version.

Tapion and Minotia's image: Anime version. The two are portrayed as ill-fated brothers.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_144-145.jpg


Bojack
Appeared in the theatrical version "The Galaxt at the brink!! The Super Incredible Guy" He was designed with a wild atmosphere from the setting of a space rampage.

Bojack's design: There is also a pen drawing only for Bojack, and the copy on the left is a colored copy.

Gokuha
One of the enemies in the movie "The Galaxy at the Brink!!~". All of his boots, jacket sleeves and other fittings share the same design.

Gokuha's design: He engaged in a fierce battle with Young Trunks.

Bido
Appeared in the movie "The Galaxy at the Brink!~", where he fights Gohan and the others as a member of Bojack's crew. Each member of the gang is named after a different character, such as "unprincipled," "cruel," or "diabolical.

Bido's design: Only Bido has one more ornament on his necklace.

Bojack and Bido image: Anime version. The story is that the gang was sealed by Kaio.

Zangya
Appeared in the theatrical version "Galaxy at the Brink!!~" and being a female warrior, she is accented with arm coverings and waist cloth.

Zangya's design: Zangya is the only female enemy in the movie series.

Bujin
A subordinate of Bojack who appeared in the movie version "The Galaxy at the Brink!!~". All crew members are in the same type of costume from the waist down.

Bujin's design: A small warrior with supernatural powers.

On that day, Goku reunites with his friends for the first time in several years, and the Tenkaichi Budokai begins!!

Vegeta Dies

Vegeta scatters in front of Majin Buu...!

Vegeta says goodbye to young Trunks and blows himself up to kill Buu. [Commentary] For the first time, Vegeta decided to fight for someone other than himself. It's an act brought about by the "affection" he learned from interacting with Goku and the others.

[Explanation] Mr. Toriyama came up with the idea of having two voice actors perform a fused character at the same time. It worked and left a strong impression on the viewers.

Goku teaching the Fusion dance images: like this... This is it!Goku is very serious, but his fusion pose is comical. It's a bit embarrassing for the hard-line Piccolo.

Goten and Trunks practicing the fusion dance images:Fu~sion!

Goten + Trunks = Gotenks!!

If you make a mistake in the pose even a little, the combination will also fail! The new super warrior, named Gotenks after the two of them, has a super bullish personality! However, you can only combine for 30 minutes.

Pink Box: Is it possible to combine with anyone!?
Fusion is not possible with just anyone, it can only be done with people who have roughly the same physique and temperament.
Also, at the time of coalescence, the one with the larger energy will match the one with the smaller energy. However, when using the Kaioshin's Potara, it is possible to combine even those with significantly different combat powers, as shown in the photo on the left.

Majin Buu
The mage Bibidi once shook the world. He created Majin Buu, who destroyed the world with his power. In the year of Age 774, the seal of Buu, which lies dormant on Earth, is about to be broken once again...

Majin Buu's History of absorption
Buu absorbs others and changes their power and form. Let's look back on the history of that absorption here.

Kill the North and West Kaioshin
Bibbidi and Buu have invaded the Kaioshin world. The fiercely resisting North and West Kaioshins will be bloodbathed...!

West Kaioshin image: Kaioshins lead a peaceful life. There was a time when it was so peaceful...

Absorb the Southern Kaioshin
The Southern Kaioshin, the strongest Kaioshin, is absorbed by Buu. It was the first absorption that Buu experienced.

South Kaioshin image: He hit Buu over and over again, but he was no match for him.

Pure evil Buu
Majin Buu as he is created by Bibidi. He is a ferocious character who pursues only pure destruction. Even the mage Bibidi had a hard time with his character, and sealed Buu away when he moved or rested.

Pure Boo biting SSjin 3 Goku image: Buu responds with a wild bite attack to Goku, who has become a Super Saiyan 3.

Pure Boo elbowing SSjin 2 Vegeta image: Even Super Saiyan Vegeta can't stand his strength.

Transform into a power-type body!
Buu evolved into a powerful body by absorbing the power and physique of the South Kaiōshin. However, it is unknown what kind of change occurred in the personality.

Pure Evil Majin VS Innocent Majin
Because the innocent Buu has a good heart, he is separated into good and evil. Good Buu was defeated because most of his power was taken away by evil. Another change has been made.

Pure Evil Boo eating chocolate image: Good Buu, who lost, was turned into chocolate and eaten by Evil Buu.

Pure Evil Boo vs Good Boo image: A good Buu who can't help but do nothing against the skinny Evil Buu. The silent battle continues...!

Absorb Great Kaioshin
Absorbed the gentle and loved Great Kaioshin. At that time, all five Kaioshins were defeated by Buu, except for the East Kaioshin. And there is a change in Buu...!

Dai Kaioshin image: He was a gentle, food-loving Great Kaioshin.

Innocent and short-tempered Buu
By absorbing the Great Kaioshin, Buu's personality has changed to be more docile and easy to control. He loves to eat and has the innocence of a child. However, once he gets angry, he also has the ferocity that no one can control.

Fat Boo eating Dabura image: It is thought that the ability to turn humans into sweets such as candy is also the effect of absorbing the Great Kaioshin.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_186-187.jpg


Majin Buu transformed into a more battle-ready Majin
Majin Buu has evolved into a body more suited for battle as a result of the fusion of good and evil. He is now able to search for ki, and can detect enemies at a distance.

Evil Boo turning Chichi into an egg image: His power to turn humans into food is still intact. Chichi becomes an egg!

SSjin Gotenks headbutting Evil Boo image: There is also a scene where you are at the mercy of Super Gotenks' original attacks.

Good Buu and Separation!!
Good Buu is separated by Vegeta's hand. As a result, Buu returned to the pure "evil" Buu he had just been born.

Vegeta tearing Good Boo image: "I am no longer me," said Buu, panicking about the separation from the good Buu.

Gotenks and Piccolo absorbed
Realizing that he is no match for the awakened Gohan, Buu plans to acquire the power of Gotenks and the brains of Piccolo.

Crazy and calm Buu
Buu has acquired even stronger abilities. However, it has the weakness of powering down after the 30-minute time limit for Fusion...

Boo Kamikazie Ghosts image: It is possible to obtain not only the shape of the person who absorbs it, but also the skill.

Absorb Gohan
Buu powers down in front of Goku and Gohan. As a last resort, he absorbs Gohan and undergoes a new transformation!

Even more power
Buu gains even more strength with the power of Ultimate Gohan. However, he struggles against Vegetto, who is a combination of Goku and Vegeta. He tries to absorb them both, but...

Gohan-Boo kicking SSjin Goku image: His power is so great that Goku alone cannot match it, even if he changes to Super Saiyan 3.

Mage Babidi
The son of the sorcerer Bibbidi. He uses magic to take advantage of people's evil intentions. However, his power itself is not great. He had Spopovich and Yamu gather energy to revive Majin Buu.

Fat Boo killing Babidi image: Although he used the power of Majin Buu to terrorize the world, he was rebelled by Buu and died.

Mage Bibbidi
An evil mage who accidentally created Majin Buu. With his power, he destroyed hundreds of planets and did everything he could to do evil, but was defeated by Kaioshin.

Demon King Dabura
The king of the Dark Demon World, which is said to be on the other side of this world. Anyone who touches the saliva will turn to stone. After his death, he was sent to heaven thinking that hell would be happy instead.

Dabura killing Kibito image: Even though it was a surprise attack, he can turn Kaiōshin's attendant into pieces in an instant...! It's terrifying strength.

Cookie Dabura image: Although he fought against the resurrected Majin Buu, he was turned into a snack and got eaten.

Spopovich
One of Babidi's subordinates. He was originally a famous martial artist, and before he was manipulated, he was a good-looking man (?) with his chestnut-colored long hair.

Yamu
At Babidi's command, he collected a huge amount of untainted energy. He attacks Gohan at the Tenkaichi Budokai, but is then killed by Babidi's minion.

Phase 1 Eye Catch
Episode 1 (1989, 4, 26) ~ Episode 199 (1993, 9, 1)
An eye catch that was used from the battle with the Saiyans to that afterlife's best martial arts tournament. In both, the close parent-child relationship between Goku and young Gohan is adorable.

Kid Gohan popping out of Goku's body image: Goku sitting with his back turned. Just when it's thought he was sitting alone, Gohan unexpectedly appeared. And they both smiled!

Goku holding Kid Gohan image: Gohan smiles at us and runs up to Goku to toddle up to him. He picks him up and they both strike an ossu ossu pose.

Phase 2 Eye Catch
Episode 200 (1993, 9, 8) ~ Episode 291 (1996, 1, 31)
It was used from the High School version to the Majin Buu version. The highlight of both is the appearance of a car. Innocent Goku and Goten are very comical!

Goten holding a car with Gohan and Videl: When Gohan and Videl were riding in the car, the car suddenly tilted!?... Goten was actually holding it.

Kaio's car crashing at Goku image: Kaio was driving in his favorite car and bumped into Goku!... But the car was wrecked and he was stunned.

What is Eye Catch?
A cut before and after a commercial. It is devised not to destroy the image of the work, such as using BGM that arranged the theme song.

Great Saiyman's bubble: All of them are impressive!

THE SECRET IN Z
The unknown "Z"

Introducing various secret stories and confidential data about the anime version! Program audience rating, collaboration with the original author, Akira Toriyama, valuable materials that have been released for the first time, etc. are arranged in alphabetical order. You can see the truth of "Z" that no one knows!

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_194-195.jpg


Animation
A general form of video expression that gives movement by taking pictures and puppets and projecting them continuously.
Hundreds of TV animations are aired in Japan every year, but a work like "Dragon Ball Z" that is a story and has been aired for more than 10 years is extremely rare.

Influence of the anime on the original
For example, the coloring method of Toriyama-sensei's color illustrations has changed to a method of adding shadows clearly like anime (see discussion page from page 90), so the influence of the anime is not small.

Bardock's design: Mr. Toriyama was deeply moved by Bardock's story, and he became such an important character that he even appeared in the original work.

Anime only costume
In the anime version, which depicts a lot of the daily life of super warriors, there are costumes that do not appear in the original. In addition to Goku wearing an Hawaiian shirt on the right, Goku also showed off his suit in the movie version of "Burn Up!!~".

Goku's Hawaiian shirt design: From episode 125. It may or may not suit you....

Piccolo's design: From episode 125. It's the outfit he wears when he goes to driving school.

Kid Vegeta design: On page 102, a rough setting picture of Boyhood Vegeta is also posted.

Anime-only techniques
An original technique that appeared in the movie "Dragon Fist Explosion!!~". Goku's ki takes the form of a dragon and pierces through the enemy, a bold move called "Dragon Fist". In addition, the movie version of "The Dangerous Duo!~" also depicts the three-father and sons Kamehameha between Goku, Gohan, and Goten, which did not appear in the original work.

Dragon Fist struggling Hirudegarn image: Dragon Fist is used by Super Saiyan 3 Goku against Genmajin Hirudegarn. It may not be activated unless it is a Super Saiyan 3!?

Dubbing
Post-recording for "DBZ" was held every Thursday at Tabak, a studio in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Originally, the recording was from the evening to the night, but due to the good teamwork of the staff and many meetings after the recording, the schedule was changed so that the recording would end from the middle of the program to the evening.

Color designation
A setting material that shows what color to paint where on the character. The symbols written as "BG", "W", etc. are all anime color numbers. Since the coloring was outsourced overseas, the character names and body parts are also written in English.

Freeza's sheet creation: In addition to the basic color of each part of the character's body, the color of the highlights (the parts that are exposed to light) is also specified.

Meetings
Anime meetings by Shueisha, Toei Animation, and Fuji Television were held almost every week. At this meeting, the editors gave us an overview of the development of the original work, and we took the method of reconciling it with the development of the anime and asking the teacher (Toriyama) to create an original design. It is rare for different companies to team up to this extent to create a single program.

opening & ending

The opening film and ending film are roughly divided into two types, the early stage and the late stage (see page 188 ~). Daisuke Nishio directs the initial version, and character designer Minoru Maeda directs the animation. Mitsuo Hashimoto was in charge of directing the late version, and Tadayoshi Yamamuro of character design was in charge of animation director.

Goku fisting and gretting teeth image: The initial opening film was a production that emphasized the success of Goku and Gohan.

Gohan, Goten and Trunks image: In the late opening film, Goku and Vegeta's sons were the main composition.

Orange
Why is the orange color of Goku's costume slightly different from the original? This was because the number of orange-based colors for cel animation at the time was limited. At the time, it was difficult to reproduce the subtle tones that Toriyama-sensei drew.

SSjin Goku image: Efforts were made to match the colors of the original work as closely as possible within the limited number of colors in the anime.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_196-197.jpg


Related Books
There are many books related to the anime version, the first of which is "Dragon Ball Z Anime Special" released in October 1989. The book contains many contents, such as reproductions of famous scenes newly illustrated, introduction to the story, and Toriyama's top-secret memos. After the completion of the original story, a seven-volume "Dragon Ball Complete Collection" was also released, which compiled all the characters, worldviews, and illustrations.

Daizenshuu's cover image: "Dragon Ball Complete Works", which has a cover illustration drawn by Mr. Toriyama, perfectly follows the original version as well as the anime version.
(Currently difficult to obtain)

Character settings
In the anime, a character table is drawn for each character that appears. There are more than 200 characters in "Dragon Ball Z", including nameless people, and the main character grows, transforms and merges repeatedly, and their appearance changes one after another. Since the character table is drawn each time, no one knows how many hundreds of character tables have been drawn..

SSjin 3 goku's sheets image: In addition to the front view of the character, side and back views, face close-ups and facial expressions are also created.

Character comparison table
In the anime where many people are involved, a comparison table is always drawn to maintain a sense of unity in comparison. Although the ratio may change for the sake of production, it is basically drawn based on this table. Characters who we thought were short were surprisingly tall, and their bodies changed depending on the time of year... it's quite interesting.

Character comparison table image: The upper part is the Majin Buu version, and the lower part is the character comparison table for the Anoichi Budokai version. It can be seen that the fusion character becomes taller.

Movie version
A total of 17 "Dragon Ball" movie versions have been produced.
Three of them are "Dragon Ball," 13 are "Z," and the remaining one is "The Road to the Strongest" (see table on the right), which is a compilation of the first eight volumes of the original comics based on the concept of remaking "Dragon Ball" with the latest technology after the anime ended.

Most of the films were shown as one of the "Toei Anime Fair" films. The "Dragon Ball Z" movies were also an annual spring and summer tradition.

NOTE: the table on the right just names the 3 Dragon Ball movies, the 13 Dragon Ball Z movies, and the 10th years anniversary "Dragon Ball The Path to the Strongest" along with their respectively titles, release dates and enemies of each movie

Movie title

The title of the movie version was foggy, and the staff first of all gathered and decided on the "title" first and for most. "If the title is decided, the content is decided". For example, after deciding on the title "The Strongest Man in the World," they would decide on the enemy, and then think about the development of the story, expanding it. In "Dragon Fist Explodes!!", it was decided to develop the technique by thinking about the technique from the point of "What is Dragon Fist?" Also, in fact, the topic of the time is sometimes reflected, for example, "Burn Up! ~" was named after the F-1, which was popular at the time.

Original Drawings and Animations
The original drawings of "Dragon Ball Z" are shown on the right. A typical 30-minute animation program requires 2,500 to 3,500 original drawings and animations per episode. In the case of "Dragon Ball Z," which has a total of 291 episodes, a simple calculation shows that approximately 730,000~1,020,000 original drawings and animations were drawn. The pile would be about 100 meters high.

SSjin 3 Goku's drawing image: Although it is difficult to see in this photo, the shadows are designated with colored pencils. Also, the cut number is marked on the top.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_198-199.jpg


Sound Effects
In the original story, the sound effects are expressed by drawn characters, but in the animated series, the actual sounds must be created. In "Dragon Ball Z," for example, the sound of Goku and his friends flying was created by processing the jet fighter jet sounds, and the sound staff's ingenuity is evident throughout the film.

Saiyans
In the TV special "A Final Solitary Battle~" and the movie version "The Whole Earth~", there was a setting that was not drawn in the original, "Saiyans don't have many types of faces." In fact, this is the world view of the back setting that Toriyama-sensei was secretly thinking about.. The staff at Toei Animation who heard this directly from Sensei said, "It's interesting to have the same enemies as Goku,'' and created Bardock and Turles..

Subtitles
Dragon Ball Z" has a jinx that viewer ratings increase when the subtitle of each episode includes the nuance that "Goku is finally going to play an active role. This episode shows how much the viewers wanted to see Goku's appearance and activity.

Audience rating
The average audience rating of "Dragon Ball Z" for 9 years is a whopping 20.5%, and the highest audience rating is 27.5% as shown in the chart on the right. It is said that the minute-by-minute audience rating for one episode even exceeded 30 percent.

Of course, there are 291 volumes for "Dragon Ball Z" alone, 13 theatrical versions, and if you include the two scenarios for the strategy video introduced on page 32, there are a total of 306 volumes, and if you stack them up, it will be about 80 centimeters high. If you include all 153 TV volumes and 3 theater volumes of "Dragon Ball" there, the total is 462 volumes, and the stacking height is about 1 meter and 20 centimeters.

BoZ Gohan image: Scenario of the first episode of "Dragon Ball Z". Based on this, a storyboard (illustration of the production) is created.

Weekly Shonen Jump
A weekly shonen manga magazine published by Shueisha. 2003 marked the 35th anniversary of the publication. In 1984, when Dragon Ball began to be serialized, popular works of that time were included, such as "This Is a Police Box in Front of Kameari Park in Katsushika Ward", "Fist of the North Star", "Wing-Man," "Kimagure Orange Road", and "Silver Fang -The Shooting Star Gin-".

Boo Saga poster
Weekly Shonen Jump 1995 No. 7 cover was a poster specification.

Super Saiyan
The Super Saiyans are characterized by their blond hair and aura. In the animation, these were expressed by special effects such as "brushes" that sprayed paint on the celluloid, and "transmitted light" that filmed the light itself.

SSjin Goku design: The idea of "transforming when fighting" was inspired by Toriyama-sensei's special effects TV program that he was watching with his children at the time.

Staff Room
During the production of the "Dragon Ball" series, a staff room was set up at Toei Animation in Oizumi, Tokyo.

Characters wall image: At that time, the walls of the staff room were pasted with character coloring samples, program posters, and other production materials.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_200-201.jpg


Meaning of Z
The idea of adding a "Z" to "Dragon Ball" came from Mr. Toriyama, and it was decided to be the official title because of its strength and ease of expression. The previous work, "Dragon Ball," was a popular program that lasted for three years, and the purpose of ending it was that by treating it as a new program, it would be recognized by the general public again. This is because there were advantages such as the increase in the number of companies and the ability to reconstruct the surrounding environment of the program and advance the program to the next step. “Z” had these various “meanings”.

Celluloid pictures
As is well known, celluloid is a transparent board on which pictures were drawn and then layered on top of each other. Although celluloid pictures are no longer used in the animation industry due to digitalization, "Dragon Ball Z" was entirely produced using celluloid pictures.

SSjin 3 Goku image: Like the cartoonist's original manuscripts, celluloid pictures are also precious, one-of-a-kind pieces of artwork.

Son Goku
Son Goku is the main character of the Dragon Ball series. He was 12 years old at the beginning of the series and nearly 50 years old at the end. No other animated television series has depicted the life of a single person for nearly 40 years.

Goku's design: Goku's setting was redrawn several times to match the changes in the original story's design. This is only possible in a long-term series.

TV Specials
Two "Dragon Ball Z" TV specials were produced: "A Final Solitary Battle" and "Defiance in the Face of Despair". The staff had the idea of airing one TV special a year, but they were unable to do so due to the schedule constraints of maintaining the quality of the main TV series, producing two movie versions a year, and producing commercials for related goods.

Future Trunks' image: The story of Trunks' childhood, "Defiance in the Face of Despair", is based on the extra chapter "Trunks the Story" in the original work.

Toei Animation
Toei Animation is the animation production company that created "Dragon Ball Z" (the company name at that time was Toei Doga), which was established in 1956 and is also known as the Disney of the East. The company has also produced many Shonen Jump works such as "One Piece" and "Dr. Slump".

Toei's studio image: The exterior of Toei Animation Oizumi Studio at the time when "Dragon Ball Z" was being produced.

Dragon Ball
The original story began in Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in issue 51, 1984. Although it did not gain as much popularity as expected at first, its popularity quickly grew as the action and battle elements were pushed to the fore. The anime started in February 1986, about a year after the original, and ran until March 1989, when the title was changed to "Dragon Ball Z".

Kid Goku with a Dragon Ball image: Although the animation "Dragon Ball" is based on the original, there were many original developments.

Dragon Ball GT
An original story produced by Toei Animation after the completion of "Dragon Ball Z". After the battle with Uub, the rejuvenated Goku goes on adventures and battles in space and on Earth. It started in February 1996 and aired until November 1997, a year and a half later.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_202-203.jpg


DBGT image: Boy Goku, Trunks, Pan, and Goku's spaceship were designed based on Toriyama-sensei's drawings.

Dragon Ball Z
The anime "Dragon Ball" was re-titled and started as a new program in April 1989. The story was based on the episode in the 17th volume of the original comics, in which Goku appeared as the father of Gohan. The anime staff thought that Son Gohan would be the main character, so the proposed title included "Dragon Ball: Gohan's Great Adventure," but unfortunately the subtitle was dropped because there was already a movie version of the series.

Goku's smiling image: The animation "Dragon Ball Z" ended in January 1996, about eight months after the original ended in May 1995.

Akira Toriyama
Manga artist. Creator of the Dragon Ball series. Resident of Aichi Prefecture. The TV animation version of the series was so shy that he could only catch glimpses of it.... The TV animation version of the series was so shy that he could only catch glimpses of it...

Akira Toriyama's Ideas
Even the original TV story portions of the show use ideas from Mr. Toriyama. These include the Snake Princess episode and Yamcha's part-time job as a baseball player. In the movie version of "Super Saiyan Son Goku," there is an episode in which the enemy, Slug = Namek, hates whistling. This was also Toriyama's idea.

Slug holding Piccolo image: The whistling, which Slug hates, was played by Gohan in the play, but in reality it was a recording of a song played by a professional musician.

Akira Toriyama Rough Designs
As shown in the "Akira Toriyama Anime Design Collection" starting on page 134 of this book, Mr. Toriyama drew many designs for the anime. Although not included in this book, there are also designs for Gregory, Kaio's butler, and Upa, who has grown up.

Names
It is a well-known episode that the staff of the anime received Mr. Toriyama's names (a rough draft showing the panel layout and story content) by fax from the editorial department before it was published in Shonen Jump, and created the scenario based on it.

Promotional Poster
As the name suggests, a poster used to advertise a program. In the case of "Dragon Ball Z," posters were made when the title was changed from "Dragon Ball. They are distributed to program sponsors, publishers, and related companies, but they are valuable materials that are rarely seen by the general public.

DBZ promotional poster image: The front side has image illustrations of the main characters, and the back side has character introductions, story introductions, and information such as internet stations.

Art settings
This is the setting material for the background of each scene.
Although often thought of as mere pictures, the size, layout, function, etc. of the structures are actually considered in three dimensions, and materials and other details are often set in detail.

Art setting drafts: The art setting of the Cell Games ring. Below is an anime-original setting, inside the secret base of the Ginyu Special Sentai.

Fuji Television Network, Inc.
Fuji Television Network, Inc. is the TV station that broadcasts the "Dragon Ball" series. In 1989, when "Dragon Ball Z" started, the company building was located in Kawadacho, Tokyo, but in 1997, it moved to Odaiba, Tokyo.

TVAG_DBZ_SGD_Pag_204-205.jpg


Every Wednesday at 7:00 p.m.
This is the time slot for the "Dragon Ball" series on key stations.
Including "Dr. Slump Arale-chan," which began airing in April 1981, the "Dragon Ball" series, and the new "Dr. Slump," this time slot has aired Akira Toriyama's works for a total of 18 years and 6 months.

Mechanical setting
Even mecha that appeared in only a few cuts in the original work are set up in the anime. The internal structure that was not drawn in the original work was also examined, and it is said that Mr. Toriyama was often impressed, saying, "Oh, so this is what the back side looks like."

Saiyan's spaceship draft: Setting of the capsule for Vegeta and his family. In a separate setting, a detailed diagram of the gimmick illustration and panels related to the opening and closing of the door is also drawn.

Airplane draft: A drawing of Videl's anti-gravity plane. Even if only a part of it is drawn in the original work, the whole picture is set in the anime.

Advance notice narration
A familiar notice narration that begins with "Hey, it's me Goku".
Masako Nozawa, who played the role of Goku, remained alone in the studio to record this after the main recording was finished every week. By the way, the lines in the trailer are said to have been written by the staff of Toei Animation at that time pretending to be Goku (?).

Logo
A "logo" is a drawing of the title of a program. When the title of the program was changed to "Dragon Ball Z", the logo was of course renewed, and the design emphasized "Z".

Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z logos image: The top is the title logo of "Dragon Ball" and the bottom is the title logo of "Dragon Ball Z". "Dragon Ball Z" was designed based on the title logo that was often used in the original work at the time.

CHARACTER IN Z
Using a wealth of existing setting materials, the original anime characters who did not appear in the original comic are explained in order of episode number. The "Z Character Directory" is also included for complete data on the characters.
Let the Z characters who continue to fight be engraved on your soul!
