The Dragon Ball Super anime is based on the ongoing manga of the same name by Akira Toriyama, the creator of the iconic Dragon Ball series. Super serves as a sequel to the original series, and its story takes place ten years after the Majin Buu Saga.
Animated by Toei Animation, the Dragon Ball Super anime ran from July 2015 to March 2018 and is 131 episodes long. The anime covered several story arcs from the manga, and it ended with the Universe Survival Saga which saw the best fighters from multiple universes face off in the Tournament of Power.
Following the end of the series’ initial run, Toei Animation released Dragon Ball Super: Broly. Released in 2018, the anime movie is a reboot of Dragon Ball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan. It is also the first film in the franchise to feature the Super name.
Toei followed up Broly with Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, a 3DCG anime movie that was released in Japan on June 11. This second movie is set to release in cinemas worldwide in August and September 2022.
