At the Dragon Ball Genkidamatsuri event in Japan, held to mark the franchise’s 40th anniversary, producers officially announced the return of Dragon Ball Super with a new arc titled Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol. The announcement marks the anime’s comeback after an eight-year hiatus, following the conclusion of the Tournament of Power arc in 2018.
The new series will continue the story directly after the Tournament of Power, with Goku and Vegeta joining the Galactic Patrol to confront a powerful new antagonist—Moro, a planet-eating sorcerer who threatens the balance of the universe. Moro’s arc, which spans chapters 42 to 67 of the Dragon Ball Super manga, has been widely praised by fans for its darker tone, high-stakes battles, and deeper exploration of Saiyan growth.
A teaser revealed at the event showcased Goku wearing his iconic orange gi adorned with the Galactic Patrol emblem, while Vegeta appeared in a blue Patrol uniform, both set against a dramatic cosmic backdrop. The visual instantly sparked excitement among fans, signalling a fresh aesthetic direction while retaining the franchise’s classic identity.
The anime will be produced by Toei Animation and directed by Naoki Miyahara, with the original work credited to the late Akira Toriyama. While an official release date has not yet been announced, the confirmation alone has generated massive buzz across the global anime community, with fans eagerly anticipating the animated adaptation of one of Dragon Ball Super’s most celebrated story arcs.
