Cowa! volume 1 cover of a small vampire flying in front of the moon
Summary Although Akira Toriyama's Sand Land is understandably more recognizable due to its recent anime adaptation, another manga series written by the legendary mangaka outside of Dragon Ball that deserves more recognition is Cowa! because of its exceptional storytelling and flawless execution of celebrated monster tropes.
Cowa! Has Fights, & They're a Lot Like Early Dragon Ball Original series created by Akira Toriyama When people think of Dragon Ball, epic fights undoubtedly come to mind first. And although Cowa! is not a martial arts manga by any means, the fighting that does occur is completely reminiscent of early Dragon Ball, especially when most of its battles are resolved comically.
Then there are characters that just look like famous Dragon Ball villains, including Majin Buu, down to his rubbery consistency, and even Dabura. Interestingly enough, when Cowa!'s version of Dabura appears, it greatly contributes to how much the "Fortuneteller Baba" type character who appears soon afterward for the first time defies expectations when she finally makes her debut.
What's so effective is how normal the main monster Paifu and his friends appear by human standards, and in what is possibly a way to underscore the innocence of children, how difficult it is for them to be monstrous. Although they clearly fear what humans don't, like angels and heaven, they are still inherently good children.
