"'''Story Guide'''" is the second of seven hardcover volumes in the ''[[Dragon Ball#Daizenshuu|Daizenshuu]]'' (大全集, "Great Complete Collection") series of guidebooks covering the ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' series.

==Overview==
This second ''daizenshuu'' covers the story aspects of the ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' manga, and in turn the majority of this guide is dedicated to simply summarizing the events of each ''[[Dragon Ball Tankōbon|tankōbon]]'' volume. The information provided is 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. Included before the table of contents is an introduction message from Akira Toriyama and the guides title page, which features the illustration from ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]'' 1993 #33.

===Insert Poster===
The book features a foldout poster of the guides respective cover illustration drawn by Akira Toriyama. 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.

===Shenlong Times===
As a special bonus for buying the ''daizenshuu'', Shueisha included a small newspaper type pamphlet called the "Shenlong Times". This eight-page pamphlet contains a round-table interview with Akira Toriyama and his three past editors, Kazuhiko Torishima (first editor), Yū Kondō (second editor), and Fuyuto Takeda (third editor). The center of the pamphlet contains a short comic drawn by Toriyama detailing his life following the completion of series, which he is "incredibly glad" has ended. Following the comic is an "I Love Dragon Ball" section, which features a brief interview with actor and singer Shingo Katori of the boy band SMAP. The pamphlet ends with a "Dragon Ball News" section, showcasing new and upcoming ''Dragon Ball'' merchandise.

===Introduction by Akira Toriyama===
{{quotation|
It seems that the second of the complete works is a "story edition". For me, having drawn the manga by the seat of my pants, to have it called a "story" is only embarrassing. Even so, I suppose that my job of thinking up the story was a little more fun than when I was drawing the pictures. Ah, but to speak frankly, the second half of the story was difficult because I somewhat overdid thinking it up. Though I did a good job continuing it like that... I think.|Akira Toriyama

===Chapter 1: Bulma and Son Goku===
{{see|Dragon Ball Chapter 1}}
The book begins with the entire first chapter of ''Dragon Ball'' being reprinted in full color. At the time of its publication, this was the first time this chapter was available in full color since it was first published in ''Weekly Shōnen Jump'' 10 years earlier. This reprinted version is roughly the same size as it was printed in ''Weekly Shōnen Jump'', which is much larger than the ''tankōbon'' release.

===Before Dragon Ball===
This two-page section is divided up into two parts, with each showcasing Akira Toriyama's early ideas and designs for ''Dragon Ball''. It displays most of his original concepts and story attempts, such as ''Dragon Boy'', ''Tonpū's Big Adventure'', as well as a few conceptual drawings.

===Adventure History===
The main section of the book provides a recap of the entire manga series, listing one ''tankōbon'' volume per page with their respective chapters. Each volume cover is displayed, along with its title, main events, and general synopsis. Each chapter also has a very brief description, highlighting the main events of the chapter.

===Original Color Works===
This two-part section showcases the color manga pages originally drawn by Akira Toriyama for publication in ''Weekly Shōnen Jump''. Unfortunately, the majority of them are not printed in their full size, but are instead shrunk down to display multiple manga pages in each part of the section. However, all of these original colored pages have since been reprinted in the series' ''[[Dragon Ball Kanzenban|kanzenban]]'' releases.

===Personal History===

====Chronological Table of Characters====
This table displays 28 of the series' main characters and lists in which ''tankōbon'' volumes they appear.

====Growing Up====
A listing of some of the series' main characters and how they have grown throughout the manga. These characters include Son Goku, Son Gohan, Son Goten, Trunks (young & old), Piccolo, Vegeta, Bulma, Kuririn, Yamcha, Kame-Sen'nin, Tenshinhan, Chiaotzu, Chi-Chi, Gyūmaō, Mister Satan, and Videl.

====Human Drama====
Following suit with the previous sections, this section also pertains to the main characters, listing each of their various relationships and interactions with the other characters throughout the series.

====Sub Characters====
This section provides some brief character information for many of series' minor characters, along with some of their contributions to the manga.

===Akira Toriyama Super Interview===
This is a four page interview with Akira Toriyama from 23 May 1995 at the Rougairou Restaurant (Chinese) in Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan. In the interview Toriyama discusses the story of ''Dragon Ball'', including the influence of the Chinese tale ''Journey to the West'', the introduction of the Tenka'ichi Budōkai, his development of the story, and the escalation of the enemy characters.

==Notes==
* The second ''daizenshuu'' has never been officially translated and released outside of Japan.
