When high school student Goku receives a mysterious dragonball from his grandfather on his eighteenth birthday he is oblivious to the powers it holds and the fact it will change his life forever.
According to legend there are only six other dragaonballs in the world and when brought together they will grant the holder one wish.
Unbeknownst to Goku the evil Lord Piccolo has escaped from the magical enchantment that imprisoned him for the past two thousand years with just one goal in mind; reunite the dragonballs and use his one wish to rule the universe.
In a failed attempt to steal the dragonball, Piccolo destroys Goku’s home and murders his grandfather, throwing Goku and his friends headlong into an action-packed race against time. With the clock ticking and the fate of the world resting on Goku, he and his friends must collect all seven dragonballs before Piccolo can seize control of them and destroy the world.
