We all know Dragon Ball heavily inspires Shonen Manga authors. But to what extent? Let's discuss this together.
Oda and Kishimoto were both big fans of Dragon Ball, and it shows because Luffy and Naruto are very similar to Goku in personality, and the stories of One Piece and Naruto are also similar to the story of Dragon Ball.
Kubo is also a fan of Dragon Ball, but to a lesser extent. Both Ichigo and Bleach don't share as many similarities as Luffy/Naruto and One Piece/Naruto do to Goku and Dragon Ball respectively.
I think it's also worth mentioning from a battle system perspective, Nanatsu No Taizai/Seven Deadly Sins is probably the closest thing to a successor to Dragon Ball.
Do any of you have anything else to add?
