Akira: 199 books

A horrible one-eyed monster attacks Penguin Village, but when Arale comes to the rescue the cops get even more nervous! And the author of Dr. Slump himself pays a visit and challenges the villagers to a game of "kick the can." The prize? Mr. Toriyama will draw whatever the winner wants!

There's something peculiar about the Tsun family, who have been forced to land their rocket in Senbei's yard. For instance, why does their son turn into a cuddly tiger whenever he feels the female touch? And what do the gifted Tsun children have up their sleeves when they compete at Penguin Village's very own high school Olympics?

In the epic "Penguin Village Wars," Arale and friends must battle the forces of evil: two alien buttheads and a megalomaniac armed with robotic poop. Elsewhere, Senbei's helper robot force-feeds him ramen, a carjacker refuses to ride with bad drivers, and a miniature house controls destinies in the real world.

Meet Caramel Man 004, the latest sinister creation of the evil Dr. Mashirito! Beneath the outer shell of a sweet, innocent boy lurks a machine built for world domination...that's totally smitten with Arale. A disappointed Dr. Mashirito next unleashes an even more terrifying robot: Caramel Man 005!...

In yet another naughty volume of Dr. Slump, Senbei and old man Tsun Tsuru-Ten head to the local public bathhouse sporting X-ray specs, not realizing that everyone there is already naked. And when Senbei is forced to explain Arale's existence to his grandfather, he pretends she was a free toy in a box of caramels…

Freeza’s transformation is complete, and his power is unbelievably immense. The Dragon Balls have been gathered, the Dragon Lord summoned and one final wish remains. But before anyone can make that wish, it’s time for the final showdown between Freeza and Goku, the Super Saiyan!

And, lo, did the Lord appear, and He spake unto us all that the Gatchans were, in fact, angels. Too bad they annoyed Him and incurred His wrath. Now the Big Kahuna in the Sky wants revenge. What will Arale and friends do?!

Captain Ginyu has exchanged bodies with Goku, and Gohan and Kuririn must use the seven Dragon Balls of Namek to summon the mighty Dragon Lord, who can grant any three wishes. But if they do summon the Dragon Lord, can they prevent Vegeta and Freeza from wishing for immortality for themselves?

The obsessed Dr. Mashirito continues his mad scheme to destroy Arale with the powerful Caramel Man 007! And this time, he succeeds! No, really! Is this the end of Arale? Is this the end of Dr. Slump? Probably not, but you'd better buy this volume, just in case!

Dr. Slump literally goes silent for a night when Senbei finds himself trapped in a nightmare involving poop. And the maniacal Dr. Mashirito creates the world's strongest robot, only to learn that Arale is even stronger. Not to be outdone, he decides to attack Arale when she takes off her glasses and becomes defenseless...

After his epic battle with Vegeta, Son Goku and his friends must obtain the wish-granting Dragon Balls in order to resurrect their fallen allies! Their search will take them all the way to the planet Namek, where the evil Freeza and his minions are slaughtering the Namekians in order to fulfill Freeza’s wish for immortality. What will it take to defeat this great evil?

In an especially tearful episode, Senbei fixes the anti-gravity device on the Tsuns family's rocket, and they leave Penguin Village forever...or at least, for a few pages. And in a slightly less tearful episode, Senbei fixes the anti-gravity device (again!), this time so that King Nikochan can return home--with some unwanted stowaways: Arale and the Gatchans!

Gohan and Kuririn, forced to team up with Vegeta, stand their ground against the Ginyu Force while Goku tries to get his body back. Gohan and Kuririn must now use the seven Dragon Balls of Namek to summon the mighty Dragon Lord, who can grant any three wishes. What will they wish for?

Gohan and Kuririn struggle to keep the last Dragon Ball from falling into Freeza and Vegeta’s possession, but how will they fare against Freeza’s Ginyu Force—a group of five of the strongest fighters in the galaxy? If they want to survive, they may have to do the unthinkable and team up with Vegeta!
