I love this manga. It's fun and simple. It embodies what makes Dragon Ball fun and exciting. The story and characters are nothing spectacular, but it makes me smile so much reading it. Toriyama has still got it. I would recommend this to any old school fan of the series...

Now... enough with the positives.

Dragon Ball Minus is a broken piece of garbage and it needs to be deleted from history. Toriyama tries his hand at rewriting the backstory to a beloved character from a spectacular story that sits at the top of Dragon Ball's anime content. This was a massive mistake.

Toriyama sucks everything good out of Bardock and replaces him with an empty shell of his former self. He sits and makes pointless connections to later points of the franchise and uses little to develop his own story. He messes up Goku's age and completely ruins the irony of Goku's good heart. He attempts to make Goku's parents special essentially detracting from what makes Goku special. Gine is only there for people to have a name for their Goku fanfics and serves little to no purpose.

Its sad to see how far Dragon Ball has fallen, and this truly goes to show Toriyama has no idea what he's doing. The two things that Toryiama has contributed to modern Dragon Ball when it comes to full stories is this... and Resurrection "F". Not exactly an amazing batting average there.

I hope this never comes up again...
