There are seven Dragon Balls in the most well-known and primary set used in the Dragon Ball universe. Each ball is marked with a specific number of stars, ranging from one to seven. When all seven are gathered, they summon a dragon (like Shenron) who grants a wish. However, there are several different types of Dragon Balls:
- Earth's Dragon Balls: Seven balls created by Kami, grant one wish per summoning.
- Namekian Dragon Balls: Seven larger balls on planet Namek, grant three wishes per summoning.
- Super Dragon Balls: Very large, planet-sized balls scattered across Universe 6 and 7, grant any wish with no limits.
- Black Star Dragon Balls: Seven dangerous balls introduced in Dragon Ball GT, which scatter across the universe and have the risk of destroying Earth if not gathered within a year.
- Demon Realm Dragon Balls: A set of three balls introduced in Dragon Ball DAIMA, guarded by powerful Tamagami warriors.
So, the usual count per set is seven Dragon Balls, except the Demon Realm set with three balls.
