The manga is published in English by Viz Media and simulpublished by Shueisha on their Manga Plus platform.Ī 131-episode anime television series adaptation produced by Toei Animation aired in Japan from April 2015 to March 2018. It began serialization in Shueisha's shōnen manga magazine V Jump in June 2015.
A sequel to Toriyama's original Dragon Ball manga, it follows the adventures of Goku and friends during the ten-year timeskip after the defeat of Majin Buu. Note that the anime, arcade, and manga (yes there's a manga for it!) have different continuities and ways of telling the overall same story, much like DBS anime and manga.Dragon Ball Super ( Japanese: ドラゴンボール 超 ( スーパー ), Hepburn: Doragon Bōru Sūpā, sometimes abbreviated as DBS) is a Japanese manga series written by Akira Toriyama and illustrated by Toyotarou. SDBH looks like an incredibly fun game with an interesting story (possibly delving into the ancient Saiyan territory considering Cumber is one) and is a major player in the overall DB franchise. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like the arcade will be released anytime soon in Western countries if ever so the context with the story and characters are lost, which is a real shame. The anime only covers the Prison Planet saga, not the Demigra saga. It's not licensed for international viewing and is not a standalone product, hence why there are fansubs instead of official subs or dubs. The anime promotes the arcade content, which is exclusive to Japan. There are two concurrent sagas with every story release, the Prison Planet saga (which features Capsule Corp Goku & Vegeta who come from the DBS timeline and Fuu, who is the child of Towa and Mira) and the Demigra saga (which has recently Xeno gang vs Demigra and Xeno Shadow Dragons so far).ĭokkan Battle is very similar to the game, though not surprising considering Dokkan Battle is based after it. The first saga was the Dark Demon Realm saga which featured the Xeno Patrol and Kaioshin of Time attempting to stop Mechikabura, a Makaishin (Demon Lord) from using the Dark Dragon Balls to grant his wish. It features an original story involving the Xeno Time Patrol and Demon Gods starting with Super Dragon Ball Heroes. You should watch it to enjoy more DB and don’t let these overwhelming hypercritical “fans” who are always compelled to analyze it like it’s a doctoral paper deter you from it.ĭragon Ball Heroes is an arcade video game that uses cards for a turn-based battle system. There’s no canon or non-canon debate to it - it’s just a quick animated mini series based on fun game with no limits on the dragon ball universe. It’s meant for fun (marketing), provides some cool what if scenarios to keep you interested, and it promotes the game to the global market. Think of how crazy the Fortnighters would go if the creators created a miniseries based on it.
It’s nice for the creators to have more for the fans, and this time they did so by animating a small segment of it. It’s immensely popular as you can imagine, and the creators have fun by throwing out every idea you can think of in the DB universe (like in this arc we get SS4 Vegito and Golden Cooler, giving an excuse for SS4 to fight SSB, GT Saiyans meet DBS Saiyans and so on). They’re multiple arcs/stories in the game, and the one we get is the prison island one. The episodes are 5-7 min long advertisements for Japan’s #1 selling arcade game, Dragon Ball Heroes.
