Goku’s Day is just over a week away from being celebrated, and although every year we await big announcements on what is the protagonist’s designated day.dragonball“, usually not that there is much surprise. However, an insider left with the anticipation that, this 2023, this may be the year to really wait for a big announcement on the work of Akira Toriyama. This is why I want to underline those which seem to me the possibilities of taking into account.
Highly Anticipated Dragon Ball Web Anime Seen Announced
- This is a topic that we’ve been dragging around for months, and months, and months, and that no insider who originally reported it has recanted: This 2023 a Dragon Ball web anime will be released.
- For those who have been a little lost in time, in theory it’s an anime that will be released under conditions similar to Dragon Ball Heroesbut unlike that production values will be much higher. In addition, it will benefit from the presence of important animators from the franchise, as well as the assistance of Toriyama-sensei himself.
- Absolutely nothing is known about this still hypothetical anime, but considering that its premiere will take place this year, Goku Day seems like a perfect setting for it to be officially announced (I personally think May is already late for the industry standards announcement).
A new film in the vein of Dragon Ball Super
- It’s been 3 years between the premiere of Dragon Ball Super: Broly and the premiere of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, so with this little “model” one would assume that by 2025 we can dream of the premiere of a new movie in the vein of Dragon Ball Super.
- Another important detail is that Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero was announced on a Goku daymore precisely on May 9, 2021. Indeed, if we follow this chronology, there would obviously still be a year left before the announcement of a new Dragon Ball movie, essentially because although announced in 2021, Super Hero does not did not air until 2022.
- However, I think we have to take into account that next year, 2024 will mark the franchise’s 40th anniversary.. Things are clearly under construction, hence the announcement of Budokai Tenkaichi 4and with the uncertainty as to when the return of the Dragon Ball Super anime will arrive, of course I wouldn’t rule out an upcoming film being put to the test in order to continue to expand the celebration..
Miscellaneous merchandising and nose smash against the wall
- The third alternative I consider is practically every year: some merchandising bullshit and absolutely nothing relevant to the return of the dragon ball anime.
- The truth is that the last few years have been quite disappointing if we follow the Dragon Ball anime, indeed because Ever since the Tournament of Power arc ended, something that happened 5 years ago, we’ve been in a brutal dry spell.. This is obviously the safest option to consider, but one that would be hugely disappointing.
Crossover with One Piece anime
- With curiosity, while May 9 is Goku’s Day, May 5 is Luffy’s birthday. And yes, the same insider who started the rumors seems to indicate that either the two franchises will have an announcement, or they will have a shared announcement.
- Precisely, the reason for which one can believe that it is announced Through (another) One Piece and Dragon Ball anime is precisely because the 10th anniversary of the first of all is celebrated.
- It was in 2013 that Goku and Luffy teamed up with Toriko to celebrate the latter’s 3rd birthday.. However, this 2023 could be just the two of them, and with the 10-year mark between the two, a new anime crossover definitely makes a lot of sense.
I want to believe and Personally, among the three options, I bet the announcement of the “Dragon Ball” web anime will come at once.. I can’t believe the only thing the franchise has for its 40th anniversary is a video game (as much hype as there is) and a project to redesign the original manga covers. Akira Toriyama’s work has to yearn for more at such an important time in his career, and at least one anime announcement should end up being made.
