Dragon Ball Filler List and Order to Watch

Dragon Ball is the prequel to the anime Dragon Ball Z, it adapts chapters 1 to 194 of the homonymous manga written by Akira Toriyama. Its anime adaptation was in charge of Toei Animation and began broadcasting from February 26, 1986 with 153 episodes divided into 9 seasons, of which 21 episodes are fillers.

Dragon Ball Filler Episodes make up 14% of the series, something not exaggerated for the number of episodes it counts. In addition, the added fillers are entertaining and well distributed throughout the anime..

Dragon Ball Filler List and Order to Watch

A long time ago, in the mountains, a martial arts master Son Gohan found an exceptional boy who arrived on Earth in a capsule during a stormy night, whom he named Goku. Unaware of his past, Gohan raised him as his grandson until he was eight years old and trained him in martial arts. After the death of his grandfather, one day he meets Bulma, a girl who is interested in the mysterious Dragon Balls. Together they will venture in search of the 7 Dragon Balls, a journey that will change Goku's life forever.

How To Watch Dragon Ball In Correct Order?


The Chronological Order to Watch Dragon Ball movies and ovas is as follows:

  1. Movie 1: Dragon Ball: Curse of the Blood Rubies: We watch this movie after episode 5, since they tell us about the events of episodes 1 to 5 but with modifications, we can appreciate the first meeting of Goku and Bulma , Yamcha and Son Goku's first fight, as well as the confrontation against the first villain, who here is Gourmets (in the anime it was Pilaf).
  2. Movie 2: Dragon Ball: Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle: We watch this movie after episode 14, since it is an alternate version of episode 15, which is where Goku and Krillin go in search from a young lady to Master Roshi. It could be considered an extended version of said episode.
  3. Movie 3: Dragon Ball: Mystical Adventure: We watch this movie after episode 68, this movie recounts the events of Dragon Ball in a different and alternative way, from the beginning of the series to the end of the Saga of the Red Patrol (episode 68) with notable better graphics.
  4. Movie 4: Dragon Ball: The Path to Power: We watch this movie after episode 101, although this movie takes place during the training of Goku and Krillin at the hands of Master Roshi, to be exact after episode 18, it takes a different direction. I alternate to the original story, adding different roles to characters that have not yet appeared. That is why it is recommended to watch it after the 22nd Martial Arts Tournament (episode 101), which is where all the characters from the film have already appeared.
