'Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero' Tickets On Sale Now

It seems the world just can't get enough of Dragon Ball. Which is why more than 30 years since the anime first hit the airwaves the series keeps releasing new instalments. Next up is the release of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, the second movie in the Dragon Ball Super franchise.

Crunchyroll and Toei hosted a panel previewing the film as part of this year's San Diego ComicCon. The guest of honour from Japan was Toshio Furukawa (the original voice Of Piccolo) who was joined on stage by his English language counterpart, Christopher R. Sabat. Attendees were treated to a special preview of the first 20 minutes.

For those of us not lucky enough to be in the room, Crunchyroll have released a brand new trailer... although unfortunately even then it's region locked. The film will open in cinemas in the US, Canada, UK and Ireland on August 19, and tickets are on sale now. Super Hero will also screen in select IMAX locations.

The Red Ribbon Army was once destroyed by Son Goku. Individuals, who carry on its spirit, have created the ultimate Androids, Gamma 1 and Gamma 2. These two Androids call themselves “Super Heroes”. They start attacking Piccolo and Gohan… What is the New Red Ribbon Army’s objective? In the face of approaching danger, it is time to awaken, Super Hero!
