Goku is a boy with a monkey's tail and enormous strength who lives alone in the mountains — until Bulma turns up hunting the seven Dragon Balls, which grant one wish to whoever gathers them. A comic treasure hunt grows into martial-arts tournaments and battles for the fate of Earth: the series that shaped shonen manga as we know it. Goku meets the wider world with curiosity rather than caution, drawing friends and rivals into his search. The early adventure's playful spirit remains important as training and competition steadily reveal how far his strength might take him.

Kim Gigyu became a player like everyone else, then stayed at level one for five years while the rest left him behind. A rare reward finally lets him see why: he was never meant to level up the normal way. What he can do instead could make him the strongest player there is. Years of stalled progress have taught Gigyu how little the usual ranking system expects from him. Discovering another route to strength changes that outlook, but it also requires understanding an ability for which the experiences of ordinary players provide few useful rules.

Yuji Sano is so accustomed to overwork that even a mysterious summons on his computer seems like another interruption. After accepting it by accident, he finds himself in a fantasy world with a Monster Tamer's abilities and a stubborn expectation that he will eventually wake up and return to the office. The slimes he befriends soon make that explanation difficult to believe. Through his new companions, Yuji absorbs a remarkable amount of magical knowledge and acquires the powers of a sage as well. What follows is an adventure built around an unusual partnership: one bewildered former employee and an increasingly resourceful group of small monsters. His quiet manner conceals abilities that draw him into dangers far beyond ordinary adventuring work.
