INTRODUCTION:
The globally beloved manga DRAGON BALL by Akira Toriyama continues to captivate fans through a wide range of media—from TV animation, movies, games, and merchandising—standing as a top-ranked title with extraordinary worldwide popularity. Now, in 2026, the anime Dragon Ball Super, original work, story, and character design by Akira Toriyama, is set to begin anew as Dragon Ball Super: Beerus! This ENHANCED edition introduces a large volume of newly added and redrawn cuts, as well as a reconstructed narrative. With cutting-edge visual expression, the series delivers even more immersive battle scenes and a more faithful representation of the original manga—bringing an ENHANCED edition to life like never before.
Several years have passed since the fierce battle against Majin Buu, and Earth has finally regained a brief moment of peace. At the same time, Beerus, the God of Destruction, awakens from his long, deep sleep. Even Kai and Supreme Kai, aware of Beerus’s overwhelming power to destroy entire planets, watch his awakening with great fear… Meanwhile, Beerus hears rumors of a Saiyan who defeated Frieza—and suddenly appears before Goku. Targeted by Beerus, the strongest being in the universe, Earth is in grave danger. Thus begins an Earth-shattering cosmic battle between the God of Destruction and Goku and his allies—a conflict that will shake the entire universe.
