This April, Dragon Ball will be celebrating its 30th Anniversary. Will that be the time when news of Dragon Ball Super's continuation is revealed?

Back in January, Dragon Ball Super was inadvertently revealed to be back in production when a press release Toei Animation sent out for NAPTE (National Association of Television Program Executives)  stated that they were looking for licensing partners. Toei eventually went on to claim that the press release was inaccurate but the damage was already done.

Now, popular online anime and Dragon Ball social media personalities are all stating that their separate sources believe that Dragon Ball Super will be returning in July and that the official announcement will be unveiled in April as part of the franchise's 30th Anniversary celebration.

Man I sure hope so. Super started out slow but the Goku Black, Tournament of Power arcs and Broly were awesome.

@Reeds2Much - Are you kidding? Moro literally sucked all the Super Saiyan out of them and left them powerless. They met their actual kryptonite for the first time in forever but that's no big deal, sure okay. 😒

Dont know the legitimacy of this. Seems like we would have already heard something if its coming july.

@Origame - Read the article. Official announcement is supposedly coming in April. It’s not hard to believe. The Manga is still proceeding.

@BreakTheCode - no i read it. At this point its just a rumor, especially since its been stated there are no definitive plans to continue the anime.

Now i have no doubt that dragon ball will come back to anime. Its dragon ball. And the movie did crazy well. But to assume they made plans that quick in order to make enough episodes that they could confidently release it it july is pretty unlikely. Ill believe it when i see it.

@Origame - Thing is...it wasn’t quick. They’ve been working on it since last year. Super’s main problem was how rushed a job it was which started them off a bad schedule. With this, they’re taking their time with its announcement and release

@Danbito - toei directly stated after the release of broly that there were no definitive plans to continue the series.

@Origame - it's happening bro. All the youtubers with "ins" have been saying this for a couple months now.

@QuakerDaddy - im still not buying it until an actual announcement.

I know I’m in the minority, but I found Super more engaging than anything Dragon Ball has done previously. I’ve never waited impatiently for episodes of any show like I did when the tournament of power was going on. I really hope they continue with the multiverse angle and Hit & Jiren are reoccurring allies.

I think they're waiting for the manga to get a strong head start before they resume the anime. It's possible they could adapt the DBS Broly movie in the meantime but I don't see the point, it's perfect as it is.

@Argetlam22 - the downgrande in animation from the Resurrection F movie was already all kinds of messed up. I don't dare to imagine what a downgraded Broly arc would look like.
the new series/season should just start from after the ending of Broly.

Argetlam22 - 3/18/2019, 5:58 AM
@Spidey91 - I agree. No way adapting the DBS Broly movie for anime won't disappoint fans. But July will give the writers and artists plenty of time to publish a couple more chapters so animators can do their job more efficiently. I can be patient that long. Or longer, if it means they do the series justice and keep up the mind blowing work we saw in the movie.👍

Hope so! I wanna see the Moro arc in the manga animated, after the Broly movie my hype and anticipation for more Dragon Ball content is off the charts!

I wonder what the anime will have in store if it does return? Only things I can think of are Broly and Moro.

Spidey91 - 3/17/2019, 4:26 PM
the Broly movie got me so hyped for the many possibilities it brings.

@Spidey91 - did you realize when goku said he's stronger than beerus : o
Dacci
Dacci - 3/18/2019, 6:46 AM
@knocturnalzen10 - Does that mean Gogeta is also Stronger than Beerus?
knocturnalzen10
knocturnalzen10 - 3/18/2019, 6:54 AM
@Dacci - at this point i think so .... red god mode gave beerus problems but i think it strongly depends on the anime or manga .... in the manga beerus handles like 4-5 God of destruction be himself but in the anime he power is lower .
knocturnalzen10
knocturnalzen10 - 3/18/2019, 6:59 AM
@Dacci - Also weez keeps advising goku and vegeta if they work together they'd be so dangerous but you know that sayin pride thing and fighting individually. if i had to guess especially after the tournament of power , if they jumped beerus i'm not sure if he'd win
QuakerDaddy
QuakerDaddy - 3/18/2019, 9:14 AM
@knocturnalzen10 - They will eventually retcon it all by Berus saying something stupid like.. oh you really believed me when i said i was trying back then ?.. or oh since i have watch how strong goku and vegeta have gotten i was forced to also train a bit.. and pull a frieza and x his power by 10000000 in 1 episode lol

knocturnalzen10 - 3/20/2019, 5:46 AM
@QuakerDaddy - sounds about right lol

I fear they'll adapt Broly into an arc and use the material that was left on the cutting room floor of the movie. They did the same with the previous 2 Super movies so it wouldn't be a stretch.

As a die hard dragon ball fan I never cared for super as the stakes were never that high imo (who has a tournament where no one is allowed to kill yet their universe is going to be “destroyed”!?) and the animation always felt cheap compared to dbz.

But after seeing Brolly I would love to see where they go. Also the new villain seems pretty badass!

OT: Just finished My Hero Academia season 2 and I can’t I can’t remember the last time I loved an anime this much. I’m an addict for this series!

S03 is fantastic, the 1st half gets really intense, you'll love it. You're in for a treat!

@8thDoctor - ugh I can’t wait but I really want the English dub as I’ve warched the last 2 seasons that way.
4thMaster
4thMaster - 3/17/2019, 7:59 PM
@TheRadioDemon - I also watch it dubbed, to the annoyance of my friends because I'm always a couple of weeks behind them so we can't discuss it. XD
Are you watching the blu-ray/dvd's? The S03 dub should be up on Funimation's website.
EZBeast
EZBeast - 3/17/2019, 8:13 PM
@8thDoctor - I was watching it Hulu and they have s3 on it but only in English subbed. I had no idea the English dub is out! I figured if it was it’d be on Hulu but very happy to be proven wrong!

My buddy who introduced it to me said the Japanese voices are top notch but one doesn’t simply change how they view a show that easily Lol
