Unquenchable Thirst for More Dragon Ball Super Action: Is Season 2 on the Horizon?
Dragon Ball Super has left us thirsting for more since the curtain dropped on its first season back in 2018. The series, an extension of Akira Toriyama’s legendary Dragon Ball Saga, revitalized a three-decade-old obsession with new universes, fierce warriors, and epic battles. But it’s been a dry spell of sorts, and fans are buzzing with one question:
“When is Dragon Ball Super Season 2 coming out?”
The silence is deafening, but we’ve dug deep to piece together the puzzle. So sit tight, fellow otaku, we’re diving into the Dragon Ball universe!
The Legacy That Can’t Be Overlooked: Dragon Ball’s Unwavering Popularity
If you’re a true anime aficionado, Dragon Ball isn’t just a series; it’s a rite of passage. Since its debut as a shonen manga in 1984, Dragon Ball has been the beating heart of anime culture. Goku, the carrot-topped hero, has set the gold standard for anime protagonists—so iconic that even new-age anime heroes like Luffy and Naruto tip their hats to him.
If you think the Dragon Ball mania has dimmed, think again! The series has been fueling the dreams of new generations, proving that it isn’t just a show but a legacy. With Dragon Ball Super enriching this legacy even further, it’s not a matter of if we’ll get a Season 2, but when.
The Movies That Kept Us Hooked: A Glimpse into the Dragon Ball Super Universe
Though we haven’t had a full season to savor since 2018, the Dragon Ball diet has been supplemented with some appetizing side dishes. “Dragon Ball Super: Broly” hit the screens in 2018 and took fandom by storm by adding the legendary Super Saiyan, Broly, into the canonical mix. But wait, there’s more! 2022 gave us “Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero,” adding new layers to beloved characters like Gohan, Piccolo, and even our cutie Pan.
Florence Jay Dominguito, an animator at Toei Animation Philippines, stoked the fires further, hinting in an interview featured on Dragon Ball Super’s official website, that he’d love to join a future Dragon Ball Saga animation team. Does this mean Season 2 is inevitable? While nothing’s official, where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire—
Super Saiyan Blue fire, to be exact.
A Cliffhanger Unresolved: Where Dragon Ball Super Left Us Hanging
Season 1 ended with Frieza and his resurrected army gallivanting around the universe. But the movies and the manga have given us much more to chew on. Frieza’s been dabbling in some new transformations, making him an ever-present thorn in the side of Goku and Vegeta. On top of that, Goku and Vegeta have been training with Broly, all while embracing new transformations. Is this building up to an ultimate showdown? Only time will tell, but the signs are promising.
Plot Predictions: What’s Next in the Dragon Ball Universe?
With a ton of material to adapt from the manga, Season 2 will be anything but a filler fest. Fans are frothing at the mouth for Goku to master his “Ultra Instinct” form and for Vegeta to unleash his “Ultra Ego” form. Could Season 2 give us the ultimate showdown between the Saiyans and Frieza? We can only speculate, but the prospect is too mouth-watering to ignore.
A Waiting Game: What’s the Deal with Dragon Ball Super Season 2?
There’s no concrete news yet, but the indicators are glaring. The crew at Toei Animation Studio have dropped just enough crumbs to keep us on the edge of our seats. Also, Akira Toriyama, the creator of this vast universe, hasn’t made an official statement yet, but the manga has been booming with new content.
Let’s face it, Dragon Ball isn’t just a series; it’s a movement. And while we wait for the official announcement, the manga continues to be a treasure trove for fans.

Dragon Ball Super Season 2 might still be a mystery, but the sheer momentum behind it makes it more a question of “when” than “if.” Until then, you have the manga, you have the movies, and let’s not forget, you’ve got the entire Dragon Ball universe to revisit.
So, are you ready for another trip down the hyperbolic time chamber of nostalgia? Keep your scouters on; any breaking news will be here faster than you can say
“Kamehameha!”
