Placement in book: Part 1 - Section 4: Dragon Ball and the Martial Arts

 

Main points...

 

  • Fuedal Japan stands as the foundational structure of modern Japanese life. One particular aspect of Japan that persists in the martial arts community is rivalry. Rivalry is a paramount theme in Dragonball and Dragonball Z.
  • What is the cause of rivalry amongst different schools of martial arts?
  • Are these long lasting enmities local to Japan alone, or are they found in neighboring countries as well, such as China and Korea?
  • The Crane School and the Turtle School, how do their systems differ, and which one does Goku align himself with?
  • The Japanese notion of rivalry and the virtuous man chosen by Heaven to be the victor are found quite frequently in Dragonball. Training to defeat one's opponent is critical to understanding how to defeat one's self.
