Android 21 was one of the biggest additions to the Dragon Ball lore and fandom from Arc System Works' Dragon Ball FighterZ as fans fell in love with her design, from Akira Toriyama himself, and role as a villainess in the story.

The popularity has seem to bore more fruit as now Android 21 is joining Super Dragon Ball Heroes, the card-battle arcade game in Japan.

To commemorate Android 21's inclusion into the new Universe Mission 2, which also includes Ultra Instinct Goku, Jiren, new character from Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Fu, and Future Trunks, is a new render for the character which shows a new side of the character.

Developed by Dimps, Super Dragon Ball Heroes is the latest digital card fighting game and the top earner in the digital card arcade scene. The update brought enhanced graphics, the ability to play as seven characters at the same time, and additions to the lore like Super Saiyan 3 Bardock.

Fans will most likely recognize some of the characters as many of them (such as new character Fu) appear in the Dragon Ball Xenoverse and Dragon Ball Online. Dragon Ball Heroes adds many fan service things to the series like Super Saiyan 4 Gohan, a fusion of Super Android 17 with Android 18, the time patrol, and a greater role for the mystical demons in the series like Dabura.

Dragon Ball Super airs on Crunchyroll Saturday evenings at 7:15 p.m. CST. Adult Swim airs the English dub during its Toonami block Saturday evenings at 9:30 p.m, and is now available to stream on FunimationNOW and Amazon Video.

If you want to catch up with the English dub, the first 39 episodes of Dragon Ball Super are now available to stream on FunimationNOW, Crunchyroll's VRV service, and available to purchase on Amazon Video. The 39 episodes span the full range of what has aired in the North America and covers the "Battle of Gods" arc, "Revival of F" arc, and the most recently ended "Universe 6" arc.

There is also currently a new Dragon Ball film in the works for 2018. The film will focus on the Saiyans, the "origins of Goku's power," and potentially the story of the very first Super Saiyan God.Not only does it aim to be the best film in the series, original creator Akira Toriyama will be contributing to the film's script and new character designs.

Dragon Ball FighterZ is currently available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
