Dragon Ball franchise developments

Entities: Bandai Namco · Akira Toriyama · Beerus · Dragon Ball Super: Beerus · Toei Animation

Overview

In early July, the Dragon Ball franchise announced two major initiatives: the introduction of a new Ultra Instinct transformation and a planned anime remake of the Battle of Gods arc, titled *Dragon Ball Super: Beerus*. By early August, further details emerged about the remake’s broadcast prospects. Toei Animation and Bandai Namco confirmed a tentative Fall 2026 (or possibly 2027) release, but recent changes to Japan’s TV lineup have left the exact air date unclear. Traditional Friday and Sunday slots previously used for Dragon Ball shows are now occupied by other programs, and no official episode count or international distribution plan has been released. Leaked information suggests a short six‑episode run that could be dropped all at once rather than aired weekly, prompting fans to await clarification at upcoming events such as New York Comic‑Con.
