In America, Dragonball is volumes 1-16 of the manga and Dragonball Z is volumes 17-42- that corresponds with volumes 1-26, the 26th of which has finally been published! What does the “Z” mean? It’s just a subtitle invented for the second season of the Japanese anime, distinguishing the earlier, funnier stories from the later, more intense stories when the characters are grown up.
