Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Reveals Life-Size Statues at Anime Japan


Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero's theatrical release date was recently postponed due to the hacking of Toei Animation by a third party. The highly anticipated anime film's original April release date in Japan was delayed to an unreleased date in the future, and it was slated to release in North America this summer, but Toei has yet to confirm if this is still the case following the hack. While Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero doesn't have a panel at this year's Anime Japan event, the film has put up two life-sized statues.

Over on Twitter, DBS Hyper shared a photo of the life-sized statues for Gohan and Piccolo from their upcoming appearance in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, with the two fighters slated to battle Gamma 1 and Gamma 2, the two new powerful androids created by Dr. Hedo for the Red Ribbon Army. As you can see in the tweet below, the two life-size statues are featured in front of the huge key art for the movie.

While fans are already informed that the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero will feature a story focused on the conflict between the Z-Fighters and the Red Ribbon Army, one of the biggest questions is the identity of the mysterious villain teased in the latest trailer. Many fans are speculating that the film will feature the return of the villainous Cell.
