Dragon Ball really shook things up when it introduced gods to its multiverse, and one awesome cosplay is helping to do it all over again with the God of Destruction Beerus. Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods revealed that there were a line of gods above all of the higher plane beings we had seen before, and they were much stronger than anyone that Goku had fought to that point. While he was able to reach a point of peace with the god at the end of the film, it was really only the tip of the iceberg of the kinds of characters and fights we’d see from that point on.ย

What’s Next for Dragon Ball?ย
Dragon Ballย is coming back in a big way later this year withย Dragon Ball Daima, a brand new anime series currently set toย release some time later this Fallย to help celebrate the franchise’s 40th anniversary. It has yet to confirm a concrete release date as of the time of this publication, but the lateย Dragon Ballย creator Akira Toriyama helped to craft the original main story and character designs forย Dragon Ball Daima.ย Yoshitaka Yashima and Aya Komaki are directing the series for Toei Animation, Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru is adapting Toriyama’s designs for animation, and Yuuko Kakihara is supervising and writing the scripts.
Masako Nozawa is returning to the anime to once again provide the voice for Kid Goku, and she is currently the only confirmed member ofย Dragon Ball Daima‘s voice cast announced so far.ย Akira Toriyama previously teased the original storyย forย Dragon Ball Daimaย as such before his passing, “Due to a conspiracy, Goku and his friends are turned small. In order to fix things, they’ll head off to a new world! It’s a grand adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world. Since Goku has to make up for his petite size, he uses his Power Pole to fight, something not seen in a long time.”
