Dragon Ball #2

Dragon Ball, Cilt 2

Rate this book
Dragon Ball connaît un succès mondial auprès de plusieurs millions de lecteurs qui ont suivi avec engouement ce manga drôle et novateur réalisé par le brillant Akira Toriyama . C'est pourquoi les Editions Glénat décident maintenant de le rééditer dans de gros volumes qui en contiennent tous deux de l'édition précédente. Chaque tome rassemble plus de 350 pages de BD pure, où la dynamique de l'action se mêle à merveille à une grande épopée narrative. Dragon Ball est bien plus qu'une BD d'action pour enfants, c'est un roman d'apprentissage, c'est le parcours d'un enfant, son cheminement vers l'âge adulte, et son aptitude à devenir le sauveur de l'humanité.
Ce second volume nous invite à revivre l'entraînement intensif de Sangoku et Krilin chez Tortue Géniale, et nous mène jusqu'au premier grand championnat du monde d'arts martiaux et à la finale opposant Jacky Choun (Tortue géniale déguisé) à Sangoku.

Akira Toriyama (鳥山明) was a Japanese manga artist and character designer. He first achieved mainstream recognition for creating the popular manga series Dr. Slump, before going on to create Dragon Ball (his most famous work) and acting as a character designer for several popular video games such as the Dragon Quest series, Chrono Trigger, and Blue Dragon. Toriyama came to be regarded as one of the most important authors in the history of manga with his works highly influential and popular, particularly Dragon Ball, which many manga artists cite as a source of inspiration.
He earned the 1981 Shogakukan Manga Award for best shōnen/shōjo manga with Dr. Slump, and it went on to sell over 35 million copies in Japan. It was adapted into a successful anime series, with a second anime created in 1997, 13 years after the manga ended.
His next series, Dragon Ball, would become one of the most popular and successful manga in the world. Having sold 260 million copies worldwide, it is one of the best-selling manga series of all time and is considered a key work in increasing manga circulation to its peak in the mid-1980s and mid-1990s. Overseas, Dragon Ball's anime adaptations have been more successful than the manga and are credited with boosting anime's popularity in the Western world. In 2019, Toriyama was decorated a Chevalier of the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for his contributions to the arts.
In October 2024, Toriyama was inducted into the Harvey Awards Hall of Fame.

İlk cilt başı ve sonuyla bir macerayı anlatmıştı bize. Bu cilt de yeni bir maceraya götürüyor bizi hem de tam olarak kaldığı yerden ve kusursuza yakın bir geçişle. Çizimler yine harika. Özellikle dövüş sahnelerinin netliği bence takdire şayan. Serinin genel tonu bence seriyi özel kılan şeylerden biri. Komedi hiç eksik kalmıyor ama asla da baymıyor ve belki de en önemlisi tempoyu öldürmüyor. İlk ciltteki bazı şakalardan rahatsız olanlar bu ciltte o kadar rahatsızlık yaşamayacaktır.

Goku artık Usta Roşi'nin çağrısı üzerine dövüş sanatları eğitimi almak için onun yanına gidecektir. Bu eğitim boyunca kendisine hem rakip hem de arkadaş olacak Kuririn de eşlik edecektir. Bu ikilinin çocukça neşeleri ve tatlı çekişmeleri her seferinde güldürmeyi başarıyor. Zorlu eğitimden sonra onları Tenkaiçi Budokai adlı dünyanın dört bir yanından sadece en iyi dövüşçülerin katılabildiği dövüş turnuvası bekliyor. Bu turnuvada ilk ciltten hatırlayacağımız karakterleri de görüyoruz. Tabi turnuvadaki tek sürpriz bu değil.

Sanırım Goku kadar tatlılığına doyamadığım bir başka manga karakteri olamayacak. Hele ki bu ciltte bol bol gördüğümüz farklı kıyafetlerin hepsi mi yakışır ve de tatlı durur. Arkadaşı Kuririn'in de parlak kafasına rağmen çok tatlı olabildiğini söylemeden edemeyeceğim.

Sammelband 1 war besser...

Hier im neuen Sammelband 2 macht die Dragon Ball-Geschichte eine kleine Kurve: Es geht im gesamten Buch nicht mehr um die Drachenkugeln, sondern um ein Kampfsport-Turnier, bei dem Son-Goku und seine Freunde teilnehmen.
Während die Geschichte selbst immer noch sehr unterhaltsam und durchaus witzig ist, und auch die Zeichnungen dieselbe Qualität aufweisen wie in Band 1, so fehlt mir hier doch das, was Band 1 für mich so gelungen machte: Die Anspielungen, Andeutungen und Hinweise auf die klassische chinesische Literatur, die Band 1 eine zweite Schicht gab und dadurch hervorhob. Auch hier sind Verweise drin, hauptsächlich diesesmal aber aus der Filmwelt - und leider sind sie hier nicht so elegant eingewoben, sondern eher plump aufgesetzt.

Ich gebe hier 4 Sterne aus Sympathie, weil ich mich gut unterhalten fühlte beim Lesen (vielleicht wären 3 Sterne auch OK gewesen), hoffe aber schon, dass der dritte Sammelband wieder in die Spur des ersten zurückfindet.
