Hello! I’m KENTA, a Japanese manga enthusiast. Today, I’ll be sharing some lesser-known stories about Dragon Ball, beloved by fans worldwide. We’ll dive deep into secrets and settings of characters that you rarely get to see, bringing you exciting information. Through episodes featuring Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and more, you’ll surely discover new insights! Let’s dive into the world of Dragon Ball together. 1. Goku’s Age at His First Appearance It’s common knowledge among Dragon Ball fans that Goku was 12 years old when he first appeared. However, many believe he was 14. This confusion arises because Goku mistakenly thought he was 14 at a later point. Initially, he was indeed 12 years old. 2. Dragon Ball’s Time Setting The story of Dragon Ball seems futuristic at first glance due to items like Hoi-Poi Capsules and flying cars. However, the first panel of the first chapter states “Long, long ago.” By the final chapter, it’s suggested that the story catches up to the present day, indicating that the initial setting was “long ago” relative to the modern era. 3. Senzu Bean Harvest Senzu Beans are a rare item, harvested only seven times a year. The large stock of Senzu Beans at Korin Tower is because Korin originally cultivated them for his own food supply.

Hello, I’m KENTA, a Japanese manga enthusiast! This weekend, I’m going fishing with my kids in Osaka Bay, so I’ve been digging out and preparing the old fishing gear that’s been sleeping in the back of the storage room. Now, let’s dive into a thorough analysis of the Namekians from the world of Dragon Ball. We’ll be exploring familiar characters like Piccolo, Nail, and Frieza, making it an exciting read for all Dragon Ball fans. So, let’s embark on an adventure to uncover the mysteries of the Namekians! Basic Characteristics of Namekians Namekians are distinguished by their green skin, two antennae extending from their foreheads, pointed ears, and arms resembling a dragon’s body. This appearance is modeled after slugs, reflecting in their antennae and glossy skin. While the specific use of the antennae isn’t detailed in the series, some games depict them as tools for paralyzing opponents. In the movie “Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug,” the villain Slug uses his antennae to capture his enemies. Additionally, Namekians are resilient to extreme temperatures and possess remarkable regenerative abilities, capable of recovering from severe injuries unless their core is destroyed. This ability is prominently showcased by characters like Piccolo and Cell, who possess Piccolo’s cells.
