This book answers so many questions, or at least gives an explanation to certain things. A really cool prequel to Dragon Ball!

There were a lot of characters we did not know of that we finally were able to see. I enjoyed it very much!

Short, but made me chuckle. Let's be honest, bought it for the bonus chapter, but still an entertaining read.
