Dragon Ball Super[a] is a Japanese anime television series produced by Toei Animation, based on the manga series Dragon Ball by Akira Toriyama. The original series aired in Japan on Fuji TV and other channels from July 2015 to March 2018, spanning 131 episodes. It is the first television series in the franchise to feature a new storyline in 18 years and serves as a midquel to Dragon Ball Z Kai (2009–2015).
Set during the time frame of Toriyama's original manga, the series follows the adventures of Son Goku and his friends during the ten-year timeskip after the defeat of Majin Buu. The series begins with a retelling of the events of the Dragon Ball Z films Battle of Gods (2013) and Resurrection 'F' (2015) before telling new story arcs. Two sequel films were released: Broly (2018) and Super Hero (2022). A remaster of the Battle of Gods arc, Dragon Ball Super: Beerus, will premiere in 2026, while a sequel to the anime and follow-up to the film Broly, Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol, is also in production.
The manga adaptation of the same name, illustrated by Toyotarou, began serialization in Shueisha's shōnen manga magazine V Jump in June 2015, and is currently on hiatus after Toriyama's death in March 2024.
Plot
God of Destruction Beerus Saga
In a retelling of the film Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods (2013), Son Goku works as a farmer and his family and friends live peacefully following the defeat of Kid Buu. However, the God of Destruction, Beerus, awakens after a dream about a warrior known as the Super Saiyan God, and along with his Angel assistant and teacher, Whis, threatens to destroy the Earth if the warrior loses to him.[4] Goku uses the Dragon Balls and discovers that it takes six pure hearted Saiyans to archieve the transformation, which results in Goku becoming the Super Saiyan God. With the help of his friends, Goku battles Beerus and loses, but his efforts appease Beerus, who spares the planet and befriends Goku, allowing him to train on Beerus' world.
Golden Frieza Saga
In a retelling of the film Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' (2015), Goku and Vegeta train with Whis, while the remnants of the Frieza Force collect the Earth's Dragon Balls and resurrect him. After training for four months, Frieza returns to Earth, seeking revenge on Goku. Despite achieving his Golden transformation, he is defeated by Goku and Vegeta, who have mastered the Super Saiyan Blue (otherwise known as Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan), a transformation achieved by using and controlling God Ki. In spite, Frieza destroys the Earth, but Whis reverses time, allowing Goku to defeat Frieza.[5]
Universe 6 Saga
Beerus's twin brother, Champa, the God of Destruction of Universe 6, and his assistant and Whis's older sister, Vados, visit Beerus while Goku and Vegeta are in the middle of training. Champa hosts a tournament against Universe 7, the one where Goku and his friends reside. Universe 7 wins the tournament and gets to use the Super Dragon Balls, which can be used to do anything that the user may desire. Beerus desires to restore Universe 6's Earth for Champa. The tournament draws the attention of Zeno, who is the ruler of all twelve universes. He wishes to watch another tournament involving the rest of the universes in the future and befriends Goku with a handshake.[6]
Future Trunks Saga
Future Trunks returns with news of a new and powerful enemy with a dark and terrifying aura who resembles Goku, known as Goku Black, who has killed almost everyone in Future Trunks' timeline. They discover that Black's true identity is Zamasu, a Kaioshin apprentice from Universe 10 of an alternate timeline. Zamasu used the Super Dragon Balls to steal Goku's body from alternate timeline and used the Time Ring to travel to Future Trunks' timeline to ally himself with Future Zamasu, as part of his plan to wipe out every mortal being.[7] Ultimately, Fused Zamasu (the union between Black and Future Zamasu) and the future timeline are erased from existence by Future Zeno, who accompanies Goku back to the present, where he becomes Present Zeno's friend. Future Trunks and Future Mai leave for a new alternate timeline.
Universe Survival Saga
Both Zenos hold the Tournament of Power, where teams of ten fighters from eight of the twelve universes will battle, with defeated universes being erased from existence.[8] Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Krillin, Android 18, Tien Shinhan, and Master Roshi are joined by Android 17 and a temporarily revived Frieza. They battle formidable warriors, such as Universe 11's Jiren. Goku attains a legendary god transformation known as Ultra Instinct -Sign-, allowing him to fight unconsciously and with very precise moves while reaching Mastered Ultra Instinct.[9] The tournament ends with Goku and Frieza eliminating Jiren along with themselves, leaving Android 17 as the winner for Universe 7. He is awarded one wish from the Super Dragon Balls, and restores the erased universes. As a reward for helping in the tournament, Frieza is permanently revived by Whis.
Production
Original Series
Dragon Ball Super was based on original story outlines and character designs by series creator Akira Toriyama, with individual episodes written by different screenwriters. The first 27 episodes readapt the events of the Dragon Ball Z films Battle of Gods and Resurrection 'F' with anime-original plot elements.[10]
Toriyama explained his involvement with the "Future Trunks arc" of the anime by saying that he created the story based on suggestions from the editorial department, "As with last time, I wrote the overall plot outline, and the scriptwriters have been compiling and expanded the story content into individual episodes, making various changes and additions, and generally doing their best to make the story more interesting."[11]
The anime series was originally directed by Masatoshi Chioka.[12] Morio Hatano, series director of Saint Seiya Omega (episodes #1–51), began sharing the series director credit with Chioka beginning with episode #28, before taking it over completely with #47. From episode #47 to #76, Morio Hatano shared the role of series director with Kōhei Hatano (no relation), another storyboard artist and episode director for the series. Toei Animation producer Atsushi Kido previously worked on Dragon Ball Z for a brief time during the Frieza arc, while Fuji TV producer Osamu Nozaki said he has been a fan of the series since childhood.[13]
Masako Nozawa reprises her roles as Son Goku, Son Gohan, and Son Goten.[12] Most of the original cast reprise their roles as well.[7][14] However, Jōji Yanami's roles as the North Kaio and the narrator were indefinitely taken over by Naoki Tatsuta as of episode 12, so that Yanami could take medical leave.[15] Koichi Yamadera and Masakazu Morita also return as Beerus and Whis, respectively.[14]
Enhanced Edition
During the Dragon Ball 40th anniversary event, an enhanced edition of the God of Destruction arc was announced under the title Dragon Ball Super: Beerus. The project is a remastered and re-edited version of the anime, featuring newly animated footage, general animation corrections, newly recorded voice performances, and a reconstructed storyline with new and redrawn cuts. Akio Iyoku stated that the work began several years earlier and involves a reconstruction of the story.[16][17]

Other media
Manga
The manga adaptation is illustrated by Toyotarou, based on Akira Toriyama's original story outlines.[111] It began serialization in Shueisha's shōnen manga magazine V Jump on June 20, 2015, two weeks before the anime series began airing. Although the anime ended in March 2018, the manga continued with original story arcs.[112] The manga is currently on indefinite hiatus after Toriyama's death in March 2024.[113]
Films
An animated film, Dragon Ball Super: Broly, was the first film in the Dragon Ball franchise to be produced under the Super chronology. Released on December 14, 2018, with a new art style, most of the film is set after the "Universe Survival" story arc (the beginning of the movie takes place in the past).[114] A second Dragon Ball Super film was confirmed to be in pre-production on June 4, 2019, by Toei executive Akio Iyoku. Iyoku feels that the film's original story "will probably be totally different [from Broly]."[115][116] On July 23, 2021, the sequel's official title was revealed as Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero.[117] The film was released in Japan on June 11, 2022,[118][119][120] and internationally on August 19, 2022.[121][122][123]
Merchandise
Bandai announced that a line of Dragon Ball Super toys would be available in the United States in summer 2017.[124] Bandai has also announced the updated Dragon Ball Super Card Game that starts with one starter deck, one special pack containing 4 booster packs and a promotional Vegeta card and a booster box with 24 packs. It was released on July 28, 2017.[125] A line of six Dragon Ball Super Happy Meal toys were made available at Japanese McDonald's restaurants in May 2017.[126]
Reception
The anime television series received generally positive reviews from critics and fans. The first episode was highly praised from initial reactions for its improved quality.[127] Richard Eisenbeis of Kotaku praised the series' title sequence and said "My middle-school self is so happy right now, you guys."[128] Jamieson Cox of The Verge also praised the title sequence and said that "Dragon Ball Super's intro will have you begging for its North American release". Cox was also surprised that, considering how popular the franchise is, the series did not launch internationally at the same time. He called it "a move that wouldn't be unprecedented" giving Sailor Moon Crystal as an example.[129]
However, the fifth episode received harshly negative responses from Japanese and Western audiences due to its poor animation style compared to the previous four episodes. These problems continued at episode twenty-four, and several more episodes onward. Dragon Ball Kai and Resurrection 'F' producer Norihiro Hayashida felt that the criticism was overblown. He said that people were criticizing the entire series based on a few bad sequences that were done by new animators. He went on to explain a quality decline in the anime industry that he believes is the result of studios cutting time given for post-production and not allowing for reviews of the final product.[130][131][132]
Despite this, the Champa arc was praised for improving its animation. Episode 39 was noted improved animation and praised fighting sequences. Attack of the Fanboy reported that "Dragon Ball Super" episode 39 may be the best installment of the series to date.[133] Goku and Hit's fight "starts off explosively from the get-go."[134] The Future Trunks arc also garnered positive response from fans and critics alike. IGN's Shawn Saris acclaiming episode 66, stating that, "episode 66 of Dragon Ball Super has a few missteps but ultimately leads to a great final battle with Zamasu."[135] Anime News Network criticized the poor animation but praised the Goku Black narrative as "the most Super has allowed itself to be a shameless soap opera" based on the handling of the cast.[136] In the same arc, Den of Geek noted Gohan's lighthearted self was not fit for Trunks' dark storyline and heavily contrasted the previous characterizations of Gohan Trunks used to see.[137] In a later review, the same site enjoyed how the anime mocked Gohan's heroic persona but had mixed feelings in regards to its handling in gag episode. The site addressed fans' complaints about how Gohan's character was nearly forgotten by the staff members as well as his marriage with Videl.[138]
The final arc, Universe Survival arc, particularly episodes, 109/110 and 116 have been cited as some of the Super series' best episodes due to Goku's new power up form known as the Ultra Instinct;[139][140] Despite this praise, Jay Gibbs of ComicsVerse criticized the series for its inconsistent narrative, having heard "an explanation within an episode, then see that very explanation invalidated seconds later."[141] Sam Leach from Anime News Network noted that fans of the series tend to joke Piccolo is a better paternal figure to Gohan than his actual father, Goku, and felt that Dragon Ball Super emphasized it more when Piccolo started training him again for this arc.[142] On the other hand, Leach criticized how Super tries to teach "life lessons" to a mature Gohan. The fact that Piccolo calls him "arrogant", despite Gohan's kindness and humility, was seen as a bad plot point by the reviewer.[143]
The United States premiere of Dragon Ball Super obtained 1,063,000 viewers for its 8 p.m. showing on Adult Swim.[144] Episodes 130 and 131 were live streamed in various cities across Latin American countries including Mexico, El Salvador, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Nicaragua for free in public venues.[145][146] The public screenings drew large record audiences, which included filling stadiums in Mexico and other Latin American countries,[147] with each screening drawing audiences numbering in the thousands to the tens of thousands.[148]
One episode of Dragon Ball Super episode received a complaint by Japan's Broadcasting Ethics and Program Improvement Organization as the part of the story involved Master Roshi attempting to sexually assault a female character.[149]
