11 Years Later, Dragon Ball Super: Beerus Finally Nails Akira Toriyama’s Original Vision
A remake of Dragon Ball Super titled Dragon Ball Super: Beerus premiered at New York Comic Con 2026, offering a fresh take on the franchise more than a decade after the original 2015 television series. The project represents the third adaptation of this storyline, following the initial Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods film and the original anime run.
Initially met with skepticism about the necessity of revisiting already-adapted material, the remake has garnered positive reception following its world premiere. The production features refreshed animation that impressed early viewers, with critics highlighting the opening sequence as particularly standout. While the original Dragon Ball Super run already covered significant story arcs, other notable storylines from the manga—including the Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc and the Moro saga—have yet to receive their own anime adaptations.
