All in all, if you are a Dragon Ball fan, I think you will have a good time with this film (if you can tolerate the CG animation or don't overthink the plot). Crunchyroll is distributing the film outside Japan with Sony Pictures Entertainment (through Sony Pictures Releasing International), except in North America, where they released it on their own. [7] [24] It was released in theaters worldwide in August and September 2022.

New "Dragon Ball Super" movie is planned for 2022! Take a look at author Akira Toriyama's comment!. dragon-ball-official.First and foremost, the animation. Although I liked Dragon Ball Super Broly, I was not the biggest fan of the video-game-like animation in some of the fight scenes in that film. However, Super Hero's CG animation was not distracting at all to me. Sure, it may have taken a couple of minutes to get used to it, but for the most part, I'd say Toei had done a pretty decent job. And if you have seen other CG animes like Beastars or Land of the Lustrous, then this film would not be anything novel to you. But, I'd still like to see a hand-drawn film should Toei decide to make a sequel. 2D animation just hits different. Including the upcoming Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, the franchise will have produced 23 theatrical movies, increasing to a total of 29 anime films (including TV compilation films) and also featuring several live-action instalments (although only one is canon).

The film, with full commitment and deep involvement from Dragon Ball's original creator Akira Toriyama, has the legendary manga creator behind the film's original story, screenplay and character design.
