It looks like Dragon Ball is back at it again. As the new year looms overhead, all eyes are on 2023 as fans pick apart what gifts it will bring. Obviously, the new year will bring out tons of new anime while hyping recent favs. And now, it seems Dragon Ball will contribute to the cycle with a special piece of movie merch.

And what could it be? Well, it seems like Piccolo is about to spark a fashion trend with the release. The Namekian’s viral phone case from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero is going to be sold in real life, and fans are already clamoring for their own.
As you can see above, the phone case is an exact replica of the one Dragon Ball gave Piccolo on screen. It is a soft character case that brings an adorable purple penguin to life. Donning a green tie, this cute figure happens to be one of Pan’s favorite characters, so you can see why Piccolo is partial to the mascot. And of course, the Namekian does match the penguin’s tie…!
