Dragon Ball Super: Broly
Dragon Ball Super: Broly (Japanese: ドラゴンボール超 ブロリー, Hepburn: Doragon Bōru Sūpā Burorī) is a 2018 Japanese animated martial arts fantasy adventure film. It is the twentieth animated feature film in the Dragon Ball franchise, the first to carry the Dragon Ball Super branding, and is the third film in the franchise to be personally supervised by series creator Akira Toriyama. The film serves as a canonical reimagining of the Broly character from the films Dragon Ball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan (1993), Broly – Second Coming (1994), and Bio-Broly (1994) into the main Dragon Ball continuity. Set after the events of the "Universe Survival Saga", the plot follows Goku and Vegeta as they encounter the powerful Broly. The film chronicles the history of the Saiyans and the background story of these three Saiyans with different destinies connected to the turbulent period of their race.

Goku: He's... getting stronger!
- The first time we see Freeza completely naked, in Dragon Ball Z, he was partially naked when he evolved into his First Transformation and originally Toriyama drew him naked for his resurrection in Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F but in the enf he dropped the idea.
- This will be Gogeta (an alternate fusion of Goku and Vegeta)'s second appearance in a DB film after Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn (1995).
- The film will be Goku's mother, Gine, debut on the anime.
- On early October 2018, a second trailer was released, this time focusing on the origin of the Saiyans, it revealed that Goku's origin was changed causing some confusion and controversy with the fans since Dragon Ball Z had already told how Goku arrived to the Earth, HOWEVER, Akira Toriyama has stated on several ocassions that he is only considering for Dragon Ball Super and beyond what he wrote on the original manga and part of Dragon Ball Z Kai, while leaving the original show as non canon, and also, the film is adapting what he wrote on a mini manga called Dragon Ball Minus (2011), which told the real story about Goku's origins.
- Tatsuya Nagamine allowed the animators to experiment, and allowed as much computer-generated animation as possible.
