Moleskine works in collaboration with the Dragon Ball brand on a new collection of notebooks themed around the popular anime series. The set of back to school ready goods are based with a white foundation and highlights the captivating artwork by Akira Toriyama.

It shines a spotlight on the characters including Oolong, Bulma, Master Roshi, Goku as a child, Ox-King, Chi-Chi, and Shenron. Additionally, every notebook also features a captivating scenic illustration on the front cover based on each individual character the themed notebook boasts. Each piece is also expandable with a back pocket that features a visual of Dragon Radar and Capsule Corp. To round out the entire collaborative Dragon Ball x Moleskine collection are a sticker pack and a matching bookmark.
