Goodreads Synopsis:
Goku’s adventure from the best-selling classic manga Dragon Ball continues in this new series written by Akira Toriyama himself!
Ever since Goku became Earth’s greatest hero and gathered the seven Dragon Balls to defeat the evil Boo, his life on Earth has grown a little dull. But new threats loom overhead, and Goku and his friends will have to defend the planet once again in this continuation of Akira Toriyama’s best-selling series, Dragon Ball!
With the Universe 6 and 7 Invitational Fighting Tournament over, Goku and his friends return to their normal lives. That is, until Future Trunks suddenly appears to warn everyone of a new threat—Goku Black, a mysterious warrior who looks like Goku but isn’t him! He’s a monster who has wiped out most of Earth and all of the Gods of Destruction and Lords of Lords from all twelve universes. Who is this mysterious man, and will Goku and his friends be able to stop him?!

Review:
Just as the group thinks things are calming down, Future Trunks
arrives to warn everyone of a Black Goku showing up, who is on a
mission of killing all the Lords and Gods. This is interrupted
briefly when Goku is summoned to see Zeno-sama, who I actually quite
like. He's a quirky character, and probably my favorite part of the
volume. The rest involves Vegeta and Goku fighting, intermixed with
Zamas revealing his plan and scheming/fighting.
I don't know if this was too busy or too serious, but it was just
okay for me. I don't know the characters that well, though, and am
only half-heartedly following the story. It was okay.
A review copy was provided by the publisher, VIZ Media, for an honest review. Thank you so, so much!
