If you wanna learn to draw Dragonball, in particular, then draw a lot of Dragonball. Keep drawing, and keep learning from them, so that you're always getting better. Basic drawing skills are always good to know, so try to learn perspective, shapes, angles, etc.

And, for character art, anatomy will ...

I think it would be a great idea!...if its in capable hands. I don't mind it going off-story, either. I mean, I can enjoy the movies and specials just fine, and those change quite a bit. Just look at the Path to Power movie.

The recent Astroboy movie was enjoyable, for what it is. A Dragonball ...

Definitely, Son Goku, particularly when he was just a runt.
But every other person has picked Goku, so I'm gonna go with a couple off the wall favorites.

Tao Pai Pai, because he kills people with his tongue and flies on objects he throws! He's such a badass, and that particular volume of the manga ...

Well, actually we know Toriyama came up with Cell after his editor wasn't pleased with any of the prior androids.
True. But perhaps he drew a grasshopper or cicada type monster for a design that didn't bear any fruit. Then, afterwards, dug it up later, like it, revised it, and threw it in.
Who ...

Akira Toriyama has probably forgotten more than the combined fandom will ever know. Especially little things that never come to realization because of not being able to find a place for it. For instance, perhaps he had a whole backstory laid out for Yajirobe; he did seem to be Goku's gluttonous ...

It looks like an eye-catch, but I don't remember any like that. Perhaps its for a commercial. I have a DBZ VHS fansub from the Buu saga, and it has a commercial of a Dragonball desk on it. I'm sure there are tonnes more merchandise out there.

I've liked all of those four big shonen series at some point; Dragonball, Naruto, One Piece, and Bleach. They all have their good points, but are all fairly different.

Dragonball, for instance, is a humorous, spontaneous, happy-go-lucky adventure around a zany, magical world mixed with martial ...

I don't remember, ahahaha.... It was probably a decade ago, at SD Comic Con or something. I'll take a picture and post it one of these days. There's another one right above it, and two more in my closet.

The one behind Kami's Palace? Its an animation cel from GT of Goku and Pan with her back facing us.

I got this at the local Mitsuwa some weeks ago. They had all but the last piece, which is the Capsule Corp building set. *sigh

I wish. Curtis Hoffman summaries spoiled everything for me. Of course, I did read it from the beginning (save for what was already shown in America), and it is kind of like reading it in novel form, so perhaps not so spoiled.
Also, soon after, I read the scanslations (from Suushinchuu, or Wuken, I ...

Aside from everything else that has been mentioned, Tenshinhan's Shin Kikoho is pretty overly powerful. Piccolo, who is many times stronger than Tenshinhan, could do nothing against Cell's second form with his most powerful blast. Tenshinhan, on the other hand, held him at bay, giving the others a ...

Back in the old EGM's ('93 or '94?), they had DBZ Super Butoden in the import sections. They mentioned something about Cell killing Goku, and I thought that was the last of Goku and hes just making a cameo in the game like future Trunks.

And back when the original 13 Dragonball episodes were ...

I, for one, think Raditz is pretty badass. He is, afterall, the first villain to bring about the death of Goku (though the honor of killing him went to Piccolo). The only other person who was able to do that was Cell, through a similar means, self-sacrifice on Goku's part.

It would have been cool ...

Oh yea, at one point in high school, back in '99, I knew the words to Hironobu Kageyama's English versions of CHA-LA HEAD CHA-LA, We Gotta Power, and Bokutachi Wa Tenshi Datta.

I see it coming down all over town and its chaos,
There's no time for me to be afraid.

I have a friend named Thien (pronounced T i en, even though I always call the DB character Tenshinhan).

Personally, I think Hachi would be cool, and I could nickname them Ha-chan. Also, if I wanted to tease them a little, I could pretend to sneeze, "HACHEEE". The Red Ribbon names would be cool, too ...

Hah!! Actually, after like a couple years, I heard that it was bad for your joints so I stopped. But otherwise, I didn't see any result. Nothing I noticed anyway.

Just bought this in Little Toyko Los Angeles at Jungle Anime! Chaozu Piggy Bank!

Let's see...
-I used to wear weights on my ankles and run up and down the seven flights of stairs at school instead of taking the elevator.
-I learned to read Hiragana and Katakana back in the 90's because I wanted to find my favorite characters' names in the Daizenshuu I had.
-I always liked to ...

Very nice! Although I much prefer Naruto before the time skip (more dynamic, more adventure, less angsty), I still read it week to week. They both did awesome pieces! Although, does it mention why Kishimoto-san drew Naruto in the Dragonball universe for the 10th anniversary Naruto book? I was just ...
