Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022?
We'll probably see some kind of visual in a few months. A teaser trailer along with a teaser poster. Broly got announced as "Dragon Ball Super Movie" in December 2017. We didn't get a teaser trailer and staff credits until around March 2018. Then we got the title, poster and first trailer in June. Judging by that, we might get info drops every 3 months for this new movie starting from now. I'm still predicting that it'll release during Golden Week next year.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022?
Press release from Toei.
"Planning for the new film project was kicked-off in 2018, before the release of “Dragon Ball Super: Broly,” with the goal of telling a large-scale story that would build on the enthusiastic response for the previous theatrical series and the current global fervor for “Broly.” Akira Toriyama himself has picked up his pen to deliver a fascinating story that fans desire. From the magnificent story composition to character design to the lines of the script, Toriyama has worked passionately with the greatest attention to detail and highest quality standards – creating a Dragon Ball movie unlike any other in its history and one that will surely be a blockbuster with fans."
They've been planning this movie since 2018, before Broly even released? Holy crap.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022?
I wouldn't expect anything but I do think it would be funny if Toriyama was convinced to write a really detailed plot in comparison to how Broli turned out.
Actually, I really wish we could get those missing 70 minutes of Movie #20 back.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
Press release sounds good, but I remain skeptical until we learn if this movie's retreading any old ground or not.
Please, please be something fun and new!

Gokuu x Chi-Chi scenes would be so fresh and fun.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
One thing I'm curious about is if the movie will render anything from the Super manga non-canon. Like most assume this movie will take place shortly after Broly and not adapt Moro or anything after, but it's still possible there might be a contradiction here.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
I do think Chi-Chi is underutilized (and she would fit the title of an "unexpected character"). Having her join (or get pulled into) one of Goku's adventures with him and getting to fight too could be fun.
My gut theory on who the unexpected character though is a "I'm half-joking, half-serious" it's Yamcha.
Some new scenery would be nice. I like how most of the time when Toei does a movie for one of its franchises the characters get to go somewhere new, interesting, and excitingly large that justifies why it's a movie instead of an episode; I'd love for the next db movie to do that.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
You've gotta love how hard they always go hyping Toriyama's involvement. There's a reason he's been taking it easy with the writing process for all the revival material we've gotten. The man worked like an absolute Dog right up until 1995.
In all honesty I'd say Toriyama has definitely done some concept art and gave the writers at TOEI some general notes on where he'd like the story to go, but I'd doubt it would be lines of dialogue. Can't say I blame him for not wanting to do anymore than that, he's entitled to a retirement with the career he led.
The part about delivering what fans desire makes me even more convinced this unexpected character will be someone popular like Cooler.

Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula

They are building off of Broly, so he will most likely make an appearance (which would explain why he hasn’t been featured in the manga so far).
Based on press release I doubt the movie will be CG. They must have been aware about the very positive receptions of Broly’s art style, so I don’t think they will risk it to make a 3D movie of something which has always been 2D.
And with the manga’s stories all taking place immediately after Broly, I think there’s the possibility of this movie being set after End of Z, with Uub being the “unexpected character”.
But this character may also be Cabba, and the movie set on Planet Sadala. Or Toriyama might have been referring to Broly, but I doubt that he would be unexpected.
It’s a story fans desire and unlike any other one told before, which tells little, but the fact they have been planning it since 2018 is assuring. It means they already had some idea about what it was going to be, hence the comments they released in 2019 about the next movie being quite different from
A passing of the torch story from Goku to Uub would be quite nice. It could start as very light-hearted, with some action here and there, to then get into the real action and powerful fights (featuring Broly too).

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
Since they've been planning this movie since 2018 they probably weren't expecting a release in late 2022 (I mean 4 years for a movie? Under normal circumstances that seems way too much). But, you know, Covid.
It's also why it's pointless at this point to say stuff like "the anime won't be coming back, it's been 3 years!!"... Yeah, but there's a global pandemic that messed up everyone's schedule, so...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
I heard people say that Cell may be returning as an unexpected character, but I don't know if I would personally want to see that. I got no issues with Broly re-appearing and the introduction of an old character into the canon, but I would like to see a brand new enemy, a real villain in this movie. BoG and RoF were branded as Z movies but they are pretty much in the same era as Broly and this movie, so I don't consider their antagonists the idea of a real villain.
We shall see. Also, it would be better if it took place after the Granolah arc. Uub appearing makes sense and there would be no issue with the timeline getting messed up with a movie between 2 existsing arcs. Unless if they push it between Broly and Moro idk.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
It's been in the works since 2018 so no way they planned that long ahead. I doubt they would also want to spoil the fresh manga arc.Grand Marshal 1 wrote: ↑Sun May 09, 2021 5:20 am We shall see.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
But if Toriyama wanted to make a cohesive story where the movies are part of it and not sidestories as in Z, where he wasn't involved as much, then he would just need to make small alterations and put this movie after Granolah without spoiling anything for that arc (Goku and Vegeta will get through it with no scratch obviously). In any case, it's too early to talk about anything like that, but if he did plan everything since 2018 and didn't just have the creation of a second movie in mind, then yeah, it will be interesting to see what he does and where he is gonna place it in the timeline.Xeogran wrote: ↑Sun May 09, 2021 5:27 amIt's been in the works since 2018 so no way they planned that long ahead.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
It's too early to really speculate on what the movie will be about, but with Toriyama writing the script it's safe to say that it won't take place after EoZ since he has said he has no interest in writing stories during that time period.
Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
I'm pretty sure when they talk about the unexpected character, they means someone that we already know in the story will be heavily involved into the plot. Probably someone from the Z team, this is how i understand the Toriyama statement
