It has been announced that the 21st animated film of the popular anime series Dragon Ball, based on the manga by the late Akira Toriyama, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (to be released in 2022), will be screened at Marunouchi TOEI (Chuo-ku, Tokyo) on July Getsuku. The film will be screened as part of the "Goodbye Marunouchi TOEI" project to mark the finale of Marunouchi TOEI, which will close on July 27th, and there will also be a stage greeting from Masako Nozawa, the voice actresses of Son Goku, Gohan, and Goten. Nozawa, who is said to be a legend in the voice acting world, will deliver "legendary talk that can only be heard here."
"Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero" is the first theatrical release since the 20th film "Dragon Ball Super: Broly" released in December 2018. The original author Toriyama was in charge of the script and character design. The film is directed by Tetsuro Kodama, who was in charge of the 3D parts in the previous film "Dragon Ball Super: Broly." Those who inherited the will of the Red Ribbon Army, an evil organization that was once destroyed by Son Goku, create new, strongest artificial humans, Gamma No. 1 and No. 2, who attack Piccolo, Son Gohan, and others.
It also garnered attention as its worldwide box office revenue exceeded 13.5 billion yen, making it the biggest hit in the history of "Dragon Ball."
