Hitting The Big Leagues
prevnextAnd Goku makes his debut on CBS! The commentators were... Generic. They called it "Dragonball" instead of "Dragonball Z", but, like @kencon06 said, at least it was within the franchise so I'll give it a pass too... #MacysParade pic.twitter.com/M9D7Ao7SAm

Welcome To The Anime Age
prevnextSeriously, I still can't fully wrap my head around it.
Pikachu is one thing, but for Goku to be in it too is just wild.
Sure, it's marketing, but that we're at a point where Dragon Ball can be marketed on that scale, in front of that many people? It's amazing.
