Censorship history
In 2025, "Dragon Ball, Vol. 7" was banned at the school level in several districts across the United States due to concerns over violence and offensive language. The ban was prompted by complaints from parents and local advocacy groups, leading to school board votes that upheld the restrictions. Notably, in some districts, the book faced challenges during PTA meetings where parents expressed concerns about its suitability for children. As of now, the ban remains in effect in those districts, with ongoing discussions about its potential reinstatement.
