In just a handful of days, Dragon Ball Super is going to be unleashing its newest story arc, and fans are already hyped for the entry. The ‘Universal Survival’ arc is set to pit Goku and his fellow Universe 7 warriors as they go head-to-head against other fighters in an epic martial arts tournament. Hosted by Zen-Oh, the affair is expected to be one of the biggest and most action-packed sagas to hit the franchise in years. And, now, fans can see where the brutal battles will be taking place.

In the most recent issue of Shueisha’s V-Jump Magazine, Akira Toriyama debuted artwork from the new saga, and one such picture shows the ‘Universal Survival’ arena.

Here’s the translated caption from Dragon Ball Park Monthly’s section in V-Jump Magazine: “And here’s the Survival Stadium that will serve as the battle stage!!! It has a strange shape, just like a giant spinning top! Centerstage is the clock pillar. Around it are the spectator benches. And located a little further away is the Omni-King’s throne.”

Looking at the photo, the arena does seem to be an unusual one. Instead of being on a planet, the arena looks like a floating spinning top in the middle of space. There are benches set around the location for spectators to watch, but the affair will be a more isolated one than previous martial arts tournaments. To the left, Zen-Oh’s throne can be seen floating so that the Omni-King can watch the battles. And, when the losers are announced, the overseers will be able to decide whether or not that warrior’s universe will be destroyed or not.

In February, Dragon Ball Super‘s story arc is set to kick off with the ‘Universal Survival’ saga. You can check out the brief synopsis for it below:

“At Goku’s request, the Omni-Kings’ “Tournament of Power” martial arts tournament between universes now begins! …But this also proves to be the beginning of universal destruction. What awaits the victors of this tournament, and the vanquished…?! How will these intense team battles between the elites of each universe turn out…?!”
