Who should compose the music for the Dragon Ball Super remake/remaster?

Post by Majin Man 101 » Wed Feb 25, 2026 3:51 am

I enjoyed Sumitomos music in the majin boo arc of DB Kai and was astounded by how bad his early score was for DB super. He later recovered and made some absolutely brilliant pieces of music for the latter half of Super and DBS Broly. I would really prefer he would return but considering how we now have had two composers since for Super Hero and Daima, is there any chance Sumitomo will return for the DBS Remake/Remaster? If not who will they bring in?

They will probably juet reuse Sumitomo's music.

I would love for a new composer, though. Takanashi Yasuharu would be amazing, he does cool battle music and really warm slice-of-life music.

I agree. Even if they get a new composer post Tournament of Power, they will probably reuse Sumitomo’s music up to that point. I don’t see how you can do anything different with the ultra instinct themes being as iconic as it is.

I don't know but I think it would be really strange even for Sumitomo to compose music for BOG and ROF for the 3rd time!
