DRAGON BALL – WISH FOR SHENRON (BUU SAGA)

Dragon Ball is undoubtedly the most popular and recognized anime series, which is a notable example for many new generation anime. Not to forget that Goku's first transformation into SSJ1 still ranks as one of the most iconic moments in anime history.

Besides all the legendary Super Saiyan transformations and iconic villains, Akira Toriyama captivated many viewers to the famous anime thanks to his amazing story and unique concept. The Seven Dragon Balls was one of Akira's unique concepts that played an important role in the series. By summoning the Eternal Dragon, the summoner can grant all of their deepest desires, making them one of the most powerful forces in the series.

The Seven Dragon Balls serve as a narrative shortcut for Akira Toriyama to drive the plot forward. Despite holding the power to grant immortality and vast wealth, the first wish was a cheeky nod to Toriyama's wide-eyed sense of humor.
