Anyone else read it?
I thought it was pretty nice. Leaving aside the db/z motifs ofc. :)

One Shots are one time deals that could turn into a manga. Kinda like Akira Toriyama's "Sand Land" was originally a One Shot in Shonen Jump.


The main character of Kintoki looks like Belzelbub from "Sand Land"

I too have read this exciting happenstance. But let's be honest, it's just Dragonball by a different name.
You might aswell say that almost every shounen manga is Dragonball by a different name.

It's a little too much like DB for my liking, otherwise it's not horrible. However, the formula's not as strong as it was 20 years or so ago, I don't think a rehash is going to do terribly well.

Try reading "Sand Land". It was a masterpiece by him.
