Absolutely! Eiichiro Oda, the creator of One Piece, has openly stated that Dragon Ball was a major influence on his work. Both series share themes of adventure, friendship, and epic battles.

Yeah, Oda has mentioned many times that he’s a huge fan of Dragon Ball. The inspiration is pretty obvious!

Actually, One Piece isn’t directly inspired by Dragon Ball. It’s more like Oda was inspired by the entire shonen genre, including but not limited to Dragon Ball.
