The very short teaser — which debuted at last week’s Saikyō V-Jump Festa during the Dragon Ball Heroes panel — for next year’s new Dragon Ball Z animated movie in Japan made its way to Fuji TV this morning:
The news segment notes how this is the first new movie in seventeen years, following-up on the 10th anniversary movie for the franchise back in 1996. However, it also perpetuates the misunderstanding that the film is intended to fill the gap between Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT, rather than the ten years between Buu and the final Z story arc. We will keep an eye out for anything else that comes our way! Thanks to kei17 for the heads-up.
UPDATE: The trailer was later added for freely-available viewing on the movie’s official website.
Is the background 3D cel-shaded or something? It looks awesome anyway
The best Dragon Ball thing I’ve seen since the end of the manga. AMAZING! That background, Son Goku’s face and movements…I have no words, this is gonna be huge.
If I didn’t know that this takes place post-Buu, I’d have such a “saiyajin arc” vibe from this trailer. XD Smirking base form Goku, the gi, the high cliffs around him. It’s got a good feeling to it. :3
I’m replaying and replaying, I can’t believe how good this looks!
Stoked, thank you Kazenshuu, kei17 & 3JIbob!
I think that Goku is cel-shaded CGI when we see him from a distance, and then when a pillar passes in front of the “camera” it switches to hand drawn animation.
@liamkav That’s what I was thinking. Clever how they did that. That quick glimpse of him behind looked awesome.
This is such an awesome teaser trailer
It does look kinda like what they do for Pokémon movie teaser trailers
At the end of the trailer I only needed this…
