As the 20th Dragon Ball movie, the teaser video and poster of the movie has already been released and has been much talked about not only in Japan but also around the world.

In the teaser released the other day, we see someone fighting against Goku... Although the visual of the enemy standing in his way is not clear, his aura is unmistakably that of a Saiyan. The appearance of this foe has caused much speculation among fans, and even the original author, Akira Toriyama, has commented that Goku's opponent is "a very special and powerful foe!

As the title suggests, Goku's opponent in this film is the "Legendary Super Saiyan" Broly! Broly has appeared frequently in past movie versions (*Note 1) and is very popular not only in Japan but also overseas, but in this film, a new Broly, portrayed by Mr. Toriyama in the world of "Dragon Ball Super", stands in front of Goku.

In the poster visual released this time, Broly is seen behind Goku and Vegeta, who have become Super Saiyan Blue.
As the poster copy reads, "The greatest enemy of all, the Saiyan. As the copy of the movie says, this movie is a story about "Saiyans.
Goku, the Saiyan who grew up on Earth, Vegeta, the Prince of Saiyans, and Broly, the legendary Super Saiyan, have all met different fates. How will the three Saiyans meet? The history of Frieza's army and the Saiyans is also depicted in the visuals, which show the backbone of the Saiyans in this film.

In addition, from July 20 (Fri.), advance tickets with the first present will be on sale at theater box offices nationwide!
The present is a "God Change Strap" of Goku and Vegeta in "winter clothes," designed by Mr. Toriyama himself!

Comments】 ※Titles omitted
Akira Toriyama
Have you ever heard of Broly?
He was an incredibly strong Saiyan who only appeared in old anime movies.
I heard that I drew the design, but at the time, I was mostly unaware of the anime.
I had forgotten all about the content of the anime, as I was mostly unaware of it at the time.

I heard that Broly is still very popular not only in Japan but also overseas,
So the person in charge of the movie suggested, "Why don't you make the next movie about Broly? I had a chance to see the movie at that time.

I watched the movie at the time and felt that it could be quite interesting, depending on how it was arranged,
I immediately tried to incorporate it into the "Dragon Ball Super" series.

I was conscious of the old image so as not to disappoint Broly fans, but I renewed it by adding a new aspect, and I think it has become a more attractive Broly.

Of course, it's not just about showing tremendous fights,
What will be the fate of Goku, Vegeta, and Broly when they meet?
The film also depicts the history of Frieza's army and the Saiyans, which are greatly related to each other,
It is a very large scale and dramatic story.

The strongest Saiyan of all, Broly, makes an appearance!
We have a lot of other things in the works that fans will love.
So, please wait a little longer for the completion of the film!
