I‘m not a reader of manga, so it was not easy for me to choose one for #MiddleGrade #ShonenManga . I went with a series that is hugely popular at the library, & I know this is not the first. Obviously, I missed out on the story building from the 9 previous volumes. For someone who enjoys fight scenes & otherworldly stories, this works well. For those like me who are not big fans, well…I‘ve read worse! Manga illustrations are amazing, though! #BBRC

SqueakyChu My nine-year-old grandson loves Dragon Ball Z. Do you have recommendations for any other age appropriate shonen manga I can get for him? TIA. 2y
Librarybelle @SqueakyChu I‘m not too familiar with younger manga series, but I do know that Pokemon Adventures is another popular series for that age group. 2y
SqueakyChu @Librarybelle Thanks! I‘ll run it by him. 2y

I‘m really enjoying Moro as a villain here! Most often, we see enemies come around that are simply stronger than Goku and Vegeta, but in this instance, he can also drain them of their powers. It‘s also interesting to see the parallels between Moro and Frieza, but also how Buu plays into the story once again.

What a perfect ending to the first Tournament of Power! Not only did Goku and Vegeta get to use their full strength, but Frieza and the other 11 universes were brought back to life as a result of Android 17 being the last one standing! After all of that, now Goku, Vegeta, and Buu have been tasked with defeating an evil, magic-wielding creature named Moro by the Galactic Patrol!

Such an awesome start to the first Tournament of Power! I‘ve really enjoyed seeing how not only members from the same universe work together, but also those from different universes (like Universe 6‘s Frost/Hit and Universe 7‘s Frieza/Goku). It‘s surprising who‘s been knocked out of the competition already for Universe 7, especially Piccolo! Time to see how the tournament ends and what the Lords of Everything decide to do!

This was an enjoyable volume despite it simply being Beerus and Belmod gathering their 10 warriors for the first Tournament of Power from their respective universes (7 and 11). I‘m excited to see the tournament come to pass and some warriors fight who haven‘t in quite some time!

There‘s just something about Vegeta being a decent person that hits differently. He was ready to sacrifice his life to save Trunks and Mai, he swallowed his immense Saiyan pride and let Goku defeat Zamas, and when they returned he held Bulma tightly as she cried in his arms. Vegeta is growing on me more and more and I can‘t wait to see him meet his second child!

Focusing on the fight against Zamas was a smart move, as this volume adds a lot of lore to the Saiyans and practices of fusion that don‘t feel overly complicated. It‘s so interesting to see Vegeta turn towards Goku as a brother in combat and even risking his own life for Goku‘s sake. Excited to see how this conflict ends!

The story itself being told throughout this volume is solid, but it‘s getting REALLY complicated. We‘ve got about 7 parallel timelines, 12 universes, and beings who can travel between any of these things. I appreciate the way everything is named and numbered, but I hope this gets easier to comprehend.

Aside from that, I love watching Vegeta go absolutely ballistic!

I‘ve gotta say, I really enjoyed the end of the first Universes tournament! Seeing Frost and Hit go toe to toe with Piccolo, Goku, and Vegeta was a fun time, but what I appreciated most was Vegeta wanting to help the Saiyan from the other universe. Very neat to see his good side showing more and more.

Glad to see future Trunks return and how they‘re explaining time travel and manipulation in the Dragon Ball universe!
