Out of all the amazing transformations that have been introduced to the Dragon Ball franchise over the years, Super Saiyan 4 is one of the most beloved. This form, although not as powerful as those that use godly Ki as their base, has been a fan-favorite since its introduction back in 1997.

Dragon Ball Super has been a lot of fun over the years, both in the anime and manga, as well as the movies. However, there is one element of the movies that does give cause for concern, and it's the stunning lack of one particular thing: Ultra Instinct.

Dragon Ballis most known for its explosive battles, unforgettable transformations, and the lighthearted signature humor of Akira Toriyama. However, beneath the energy blasts and tournament arcs lies a darker side to the franchise. Throughout its many sagas, the series has never shied away from depicting loss, defeat, and destruction. At its most intense, Dragon Ball reminds audiences that even the strongest heroes aren’t immune to tragedy.

Dragon Ball's Frieza is one of the most iconic anime villains of all time, but it turns out that the villain wasn't always planned to be a part of the story. When one realizes that fact, there are a lot of plot inconsistencies that suddenly make sense, particularly in the preceding Saiyan Saga.

It took longer than people would have wanted, but Dragon Ball Daimais finally ing Toonami’s lineup. Between being the latest installment in the Dragon Ball franchise and the last story Akira Toriyama wrote before his ing, Dragon Ball Daima was easily one of the biggest anime of recent years, and the overall stellar quality of its writing and production more than lived up to that level of hype.

Since Dragon Ball first hit television screens in 1986, Masako Nozawa has voiced its fearless hero, Son Goku. In 2024, with the release of Dragon Ball Daima, the final anime to feature full creative involvement from Akira Toriyama before his ing, Nozawa once again returned to the role that has defined her career. “When I first heard Daima was happening, I just shouted, ‘Yes! We’re back!’” she recalled in a new interview in Japan. Nearly 40 years after her debut as Goku, her ion for the character remained as fierce and heartfelt as ever.

Dragon Ball Super has been going through an excruciating indefinite hiatus, with only one chapter having been released in the past year. Now, it's looking like Dragon Ball Super might be on the back burner for a while longer, thanks to a new report about Toyotaro.

When thinking about Dragon Ball, most fans will the iconic villains that have been introduced to this beloved franchise. Frieza, Cell, Majin Buu, and the numerous adversaries that Goku and his friends fought against left a lasting mark on viewers that will never be erased. However, among these, the Galactic Emperor is arguably the most popular for his iconic rivalry against the Saiyans.

Dragon Ball is home to some of anime's most iconic characters, each of which has had their own defining moments throughout the years. Within its instantly recognizable cast, though it's never exactly been a major focus in the series, are some of anime's most popular couples. Most fans would likely think of Bulma and Vegeta before anyone else, but duos like Gohan and Videl, and Krillin and Android #18 have had their fair share of cute on-screen moments.
