INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Dragon Ball Den! This is a blog for anyone interested in the Dragon Ball anime series, in any way or form. Due to the enormous size of the current Dragon Ball series, there are countless storylines, characters, and themes to explore. Even for a seasoned Dragon Ball fan, several spots in the series may require reference of previous story material to understand relevant plot points and character arcs. This page mainly serves as a guide to the entire Dragon Ball series in case anyone following the series needs to check up on a certain character’s background, order of events, or reference the details of the vast character relationships throughout the series.

If you’ve ever watched the Dragon Ball anime series before, are currently watching it, or are interested in watching it in the near future, this page is for you. Primarily, this blog plans to have a section devoted to individual pages for each of the main characters of the Dragon Ball series. In each individual character page, the characters origins will be fully explained along with a description of their significant role in the story. Due to the massive length of the anime series, the individual character pages are particularly useful for when a Dragon Ball viewer comes across a character they don’t remember clearly from several episodes ago. The individual character guides will allow any viewer to reference a single character and refresh their memory on that character’s attributes and importance in the Dragon Ball series.

Besides just describing the individual characters of the Dragon Ball series, this page also intends to outline how each character relates to each other:

Additionally, the Dragon Ball Den page will have its own section to outline themes, locations, special series events, and more to keep viewers up to date on any references while watching the series:

The images above of Goku, his family, and his son Gohan, have been found from Google images using an Advanced Search to ensure these images are declared free to use and share from their owner. This is important since the creator of these images often have legal ownership over the picture as property, even though everyone can access them. If someone posts someone else image on their blog without considering the legal ownership of that image, there can be legal consequences since “… the law calls for a balanced application of four factors. These four factors come directly from the fair use provision, Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act and they have been examined and developed in judicial decisions.” (Columbia University Libraries.
