We reviewed DRAGON BALL ULTIMATE EDITION via press volume provided to us by Star Comics.
Thus began the events of Dragon Ballseries born from the master’s mind Akira Toriyama back in 1984 and published in the magazine Shonen Jump from Shueisha. One of those particular works so big and famous all over the world that, while writing the little introduction to the story that I reported above, made me ask a simple question several times: Is there really anyone who still doesn’t know Dragon Ball?
In fact, it is not a series of impressive success in every corner of the world, but also in our Bel Pese the events of Goku and companions are often present in various media: the anime, broadcast on the broadcasters Mediaset almost repeated since 1996, videogames, one of the videogame certainties of BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment which is repeated often and willingly in various sauces, and the manga, the one from which it all started, which started the enormous success, which for many years has been the spearhead of the publisher Star Comics.
And just from Star Comics has just arrived there DRAGON BALL ULTIMATE EDITIONwhat, as its name indicates, is the definitive edition of the master’s immortal work Toriyama. At this point you are surely wondering why, please, should you choose this brand new edition among all those on the market? Let’s go into more detail!
DRAGON BALL ULTIMATE EDITION it is in all respects an improved version of the old Perfect Editionso much improved as to become a real gem in the hands of every hard and pure Dragon Ball fan. Of course, the price can throw off a bit, but just look at it for just a second, touch it, to understand its value. I mean, thinking about the price, it’s not that different from that of other manga offered by the Italian manga market, but with much less accurate editions …
This Ultimate Edition in fact it is not only a luxury product from the aesthetic side, but the most important detail that makes the mouths of readers and fans of the work water is without a shadow of a doubt a better adaptation of the texts (with onomatopoeias left in Japanese characters with relative translations) e the presence of those particular scenes that we have chosen to cut out, to censor, in editions such as the Perfect Edition.
In a small mountain town thousands of kilometers from civilization lives a boy named Goku, who has a strange tail and extraordinary strength! One day Goku meets Bulma, a city girl who is looking for the “Seven Dragon Balls”, thanks to which it is possible to summon a legendary dragon ready to grant any wish: thus begins the long journey of the two in search of the orbs. Along the way Goku will find many friends, but also many enemies, and will discover the true nature of his exceptional power!
To the delight of all comic lovers, here is finally here Dragon Ball Ultimate Editiona very luxurious re-edition of the fundamental work of the master Toriyama which, with the recently updated texts, takes up the format and graphics of the “legendary” Perfect Edition.

The return of the myth
Unless you are infatuated with the anime-style charm of the Full Colorthe DRAGON BALL ULTIMATE EDITION it is, in my opinion, the first choice for anyone who wants to approach the famous and immortal work of the master Akira Toriyama in 2022, with the awareness of finding a hand not only a spectacular product from an aesthetic point of view, but also the most faithful one and better in terms of content. While the value for money is fair for the materials, binding and everything that has been done, € 15 per volume may not be quite affordable for everyone, especially younger readers on a tight budget. For all the others, on the other hand, who perhaps compare themselves monthly with manga sold at the same price but of lower quality, it would be almost a crime to let it slip away. Especially if Dragon Ball still represents a major hole in your collection today.
The right opportunity to add a large series to the collection
