Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Teases A Bigger Threat & Reveals New Look at Undercover Piccolo


While Goku and Vegeta step out of the spotlight to take care of other matters in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, familiar Z-fighters will get their moments to shine as we see them battle the villainous Red Ribbon Army. Piccolo will be one of the characters playing a major role, and it's already confirmed that he will unleash a new transformation during his fight with Gamma 1 and Gamma 2. The strongest Namekian in the universe will also be going undercover to learn what the criminal organization is currently planning when it comes to the likes of Dr. Hedo and the new androids.

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, but there's still a lot of story being kept under wraps, and the captions that are a part of the promotional poster have some interesting tidbits that might hint at a larger threat than Gamma 1 and Gamma 2. The text reveals that Piccolo has found more than he bargained for within the Red Ribbon Army's new headquarters.

"Somehow, Piccolo finds out the location of their secret hideout! What did he discover in the lowest part of the base, which he sneaked into disguised as a soldier? Piccolo witnesses a terrifying plan in action!?"

Here's the new promotional image teasing Piccolo's undercover mission:

The new promotional image reveals a fresh look at Piccolo in Red Ribbon uniform, but it also includes a few new images from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. The mysterious villain was first teased in the latest trailer for the movie, and many fans are speculating that Cell might return.

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero's April 2022 Japanese theatrical release date was delayed due to the Toei Animation hack, but Toei hasn't announced a new theatrical release date yet. The shonen movie is slated to release in North American theaters this summer, but there's still no word on whether or not the hack affected its release schedule.
