Overall, the Dragon Ball series is the first in a line of wildly successful series of anime that took the world by storm. Unfortunately it is often forgotten in favour of the more heavily saturated sequel, Dragon Ball Z, or shrugged off as too campy to be enjoyed by anyone over the age of 11. This simply isn't true, and doesn't do the series that launched the phenomenon justice. While it may be overly cute at times, and never horribly complex or intriguing, it is throughly enjoyable even today, 20 years after the original series started it's run on networks over in Japan.
