Dragon Balls are magical orbs from the popular anime and manga series Dragon Ball, created by Akira Toriyama. There are seven Dragon Balls, each with a different number of stars, ranging from one to seven. When gathered together, they can summon a powerful dragon named Shenron, who grants a wish to the person who summoned him. The Dragon Balls are scattered across the world and can be found by skilled adventurers. They are often sought after by characters in the series for their ability to grant wishes, such as bringing back the dead or acquiring immense power. Collecting all seven Dragon Balls is a central quest in the Dragon Ball storyline.
