The Dragon Ball phenomenon began in 1984, when Japan’s well-known manga from Akira Toriyama debuted in Shueisha’s “Weekly Shonen Jump,” quickly becoming a top-ranked title for the next ten and a half years. Since then, the manga’s popularity has grown to an astounding 260 million copies sold worldwide and counting.

Dragon Ball’s popularity has grown beyond manga to include TV animation, movies, games, and merchandising. Dragon Ball continues to evolve and will reach new heights with this new large-scale movie, 38 years after the original manga’s release.
