"Dragon Ball Super" (often abbreviated as Super) is a Japanese animated television series produced by Toei Animation. The series' initial story concept and character designs were developed by original author Akira Toriyama. The series was announced to, "...follow the aftermath of Goku's fierce battle with Majin Buu, as he attempts to maintain earth's fragile peace."[1] The series is set slightly after the showdown with Majin Buu and retells the franchise's most recent movies, Battle of Gods and Revival of "F"[2], before proceeding into a new story line created by Akira Toriyama.

Plot

Peace has once again returned to the Earth, where its heroes are enjoying a quiet life. However Beerus, the God of Destruction, has awoken after a 39 year slumber. Having had a dream about "Super Saiyan God", he sets out in search of this mysterious Saiyan. After visiting Kaiō, and eventually ending up on Earth, Son Goku must find a way to summon the power of "Super Saiyan God" and battle the irritable god before he destroys the Earth!
