Dragon Ball has helped to shape anime and manga in a number of ways. For over four decades, the franchise has inspired and remained a major influence on the works of countless artists and creatives around the world, while anime fandom and culture has always, in one way or another, been directly affected by the actions of Goku and company. There's little the iconic leading Saiyan hasn't done, from his humble beginnings as a shōnen action manga hero, to becoming a mascot of an entire art form.
