Dragon Ball vol 12 review

October 26, 2024 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: reviews

Another great volume. This volume introduces Demon King Piccolo, probably the most famous OG Dragon Ball antagonist. He's a fun bad guy, and operating on a level of power not seen yet in the series.

This arc is also what I think is the transition period between Dragon Ball and Z. Prior to Piccolo's introduction, Dragon Ball operates on a smaller scale, with weaker enemies and lower stakes. The Piccolo saga is our first encounter with the big bad -> lose -> powerup -> defeat bad guy formular we see in Z with Vegeta, Frieza, Cell, and Buu.

As always, fantastic artwork and fight choreography.
