Growing Up 110 A listing of some of the series’ main characters and how they’ve grown throughout the manga. It really does make it quite clear just how many minor characters sort of, drop off the map. Personal History 107 Chronological Table of Characters 108 This is a table that displays 28 of the series’ main characters and in which tankōbon volumes they appear. However, all of these original colored pages have now been reprinted in the kanzenban releases.

Unfortunately, the majority of them are not printed in their full size, but are instead shrunk down to display more per page. Original Color Works 091, 155 Another section that has been divided up into two parts, it showcases all of the beautiful color manga pages originally drawn by Akira Toriyama for publication in Weekly Shōnen Jump. Each chapter also has a very brief description, highlighting the main events of the chapter. Each volume cover is displayed, along with its title, main events, and general synopsis. Adventure History 047 This section provides a recap of the entire manga series, listing one tankōbon volume per page with their respective chapters. It displays most of his original concepts, and ideas such as Dragon Boy, Tonpū’s Big Adventure, and some interesting conceptual drawings. Before Dragon Ball 046, 090 A nice little section that’s divided up into two parts which showcases Toriyama’s early ideas for Dragon Ball. This reprinted version was roughly the same size it was printed in Weekly Jump, which was much larger than the tankōbon release. Toriyama’s Introduction ( read translation) 013 Chapter 001 – Bulma and Son Goku 015 A great way to start the daizenshuu – the entire first chapter of Dragon Ball was reprinted in full color! This was actually the first time this chapter was available in full color since it was first published in Weekly Shōnen Jump 10 years earlier. On the opposite side of the poster is a character correlation diagram that links all of the main characters back to Son Goku and to each other. The book also features a beautiful foldout poster of the guides respective cover image drawn by Akira Toriyama.
Included before the table of contents is an introduction message from Akira Toriyama and the guides title page, which features the illustration from 1993 WJ #33.
There’s also a lot information organized in useful ways throughout the guide, such as providing ‘personal histories’ that show the various character ages, forms, and the interaction of the characters throughout the course of the series. The second daizenshuu covers the manga story aspects of Dragon Ball, and in turn the majority of this guide is dedicated to simply summarizing the events of each tankōbon volume.
