Dragon Ball: The Magic Begins (1991)

In a sinister quest for universal domination, the malevolent alien ruler, King Horn, descends upon Earth, his greedy eyes set on the seven mystical Dragon Pearls. These pearls possess the power to enslave humanity and allow the one who controls them to rule the cosmos. With a ruthless determination, Horn manages to seize all but one of the pearls, also capturing Sparkle, a guardian of the remaining precious pearl. As the world teeters on the brink of chaos, a beacon of hope emerges in the unlikely form of Monkey Boy, Sparkle's brave and adventurous grandson. Tasked with the daunting responsibility to save his planet, Monkey Boy embarks on a treacherous journey to retrieve the stolen pearls and thwart King Horn's nefarious plans. In this epic quest, Monkey Boy is not alone.

This ragtag team of unlikely heroes is Earth's last line of defense against King Horn's terrifying reign. As they tread on a path fraught with danger and deception, the group must battle their own personal demons and the tempting allure of the Dragon Pearls' power. Will they stay true to their mission and save humanity, or will they succumb to the allure of the Pearls? There's no room for mistakes or second chances.
