Dragon Ball Super: Broly (Japanese: ドラゴンボールスーパー ブロリー, Hepburn: Doragon Bōru Sūpā: Burorī) is a 2018 Japanese anime fantasy martial arts film, the twentieth movie in the Dragon Ball series, and the first to carry the Dragon Ball Super branding. It is directed by Tatsuya Nagamine and written by Akira Toriyama. It was the third Dragon Ball film personally supervised by creator Toriyama, following Battle of Gods in 2013 and Resurrection 'F' in 2015.

The film's story takes place after the Universe Survival Saga depicted in Dragon Ball Super. Under the tagline "the greatest enemy, Saiyan", the film depicts the fate of series protagonists Goku and Vegeta as they encounter a new Saiyan called Broly. In the beginning, it tells the history of the Saiyan race and the background story of these three Saiyans with different destinies connected to the turbulent period of their race, and later resulting in a massive fight between them.[1] The film is the fourth traditionally animated film to feature Broly, who first appeared in Dragon Ball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan (1993), then Second Coming (1994), and last appeared in Bio-Broly (1994). While the previous films were not canonical, Dragon Ball Super: Broly is the first to feature a reworked version of the character as part of the series' official continuity written by Toriyama.

Plot

At the time, 41 years ago, Saiyan's planet Vegeta became under command of Frieza's army. Due to an abnormal power level of Broly while still as a baby it causes for Broly and his father Paragus to be exiled to a desolate planet Vampa with a harsh life because King Vegeta fears him to be a threat to his elite son, Prince Vegeta. The king pridefully perceives his son as a prodigy to save his people and as such neglects Broly's power, while Paragus' pride in his son transforms into a wish for vengeance and using his son as a tool to accomplish it. On the other side, five years later, low-class warrior Bardock becomes suspicious of the Frieza's orders because of which decided to send his son Kakarot, later called Goku, to planet Earth. His suspicions become a reality as Frieza destroys Planet Vegeta after hearing about the legend of the Super Saiyan which could defeat him. All the Saiyans, besides Broly and Paragus, Goku, Vegeta with his comrades Nappa and Raditz (who was the older brother of Goku), die in the cataclysm.[5][6]

In the present, Goku and Vegeta are training in the desert with their friends when are suddenly informed that six out of seven Dragon Balls have been stolen by Frieza's soldiers. In the mean time, Broly and Paragus on the planet Vampa were discovered and rescued by Cheelai and Lemo, low-class soldiers from Frieza's forces, who were searching for recruits. As Goku and Vegeta rushed to the Arctic to stop Frieza from collecting the seventh Dragon Ball, they are suddenly faced by Broly with his father who arrive with Frieza's forces. Paragus made an alliance with Frieza to revenge on Vegeta and as such orders Broly to attack him. It results in Broly fighting against Vegeta and Goku, constantly catching up with them in power, and when Frieza murders his father Paragus out of curiosity to see his rage reaction, he transforms into a Super Saiyan form whose strength overwhelms them. Eventually, Goku and Vegeta fuse together into Gogeta and rush back to the battlefield to save Frieza. However, when in the fused form they are able to obliterate Broly, Cheelai and Lemo who sympathize with him used the Dragon Balls to summon wish-granting dragon Shenron in the last moment to save him from near death. In the end, Goku makes contact with Broly wishing to be friends, as well finally accepts his Saiyan heritage and name.[5][6][7]

Development

Gen Fukunaga, Christopher Sabat and Sean Schemmel speaking on the Dragon Ball Super panel at San Diego Comic-Con International.

The film is produced by Toei Animation. It was originally announced under the tentative title of Dragon Ball Super - The Movie on December 17, 2017, during Jump Festa with the general theme being "The Strongest Warrior Race in the Universe, The Saiyans".[12] A poster was released on March 13, 2018, 11 days before the airing of the final episode of Dragon Ball Super, featuring an entirely new traditional animation design by Toei animator Naohiro Shintani,[13][14][15] as opposed to veteran Dragon Ball character designer Tadayoshi Yamamuro. One week later, the first trailer for the film was released publicly through Toei Animation featuring the all–new character designs and an enigmatic new villain.[16] Akira Toriyama wrote the story, screenplay and designed the characters, Tatsuya Nagamine is film director, Naohiro Shintani is animation director, Kazuo Ogura is serving as art director, Rumiko Nagai as color designer, Naotake Oota is in charge of special effects, and Kai Makino is the CG director.[17] The film includes elements of the 2014 "Dragon Ball −(Minus): The Departure of the Fated Child" story written by Toriyama as canon.[18]

On July 9, 2018, the movie's title was revealed to be Dragon Ball Super: Broly, revealing the unknown villain to be the titular character Broly who first appeared in the 1993 film Dragon Ball Z: Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan. Toriyama stated the character and his origin is reworked, but with his classic image in mind.[1] With this movie portrayal, the character would become part of the series official canon.[19][20][21][22] Other new characters introduced in the film are Goku's mother Gine,[23] Kikono, Berryblue, Cheelai, and Lemo serving in the Frieza's army,[24] and Saiyan Beets.[25]

TV version climax recap".[31]

The film was promoted through the "Dragon Ball North America Tour 2018 with Bandai Collectibles" sponsored by North American anime distributor Funimation, which was held in seven cities in the United States and Canada, starting with a San Diego Comic-Con International panel on July 19, and ending at Dallas Fan Days on October 21, 2018.[32]

On December 14, 2018, was released an official same-titled novel written by Masatoshi Kusakabe,[37] which among other reveals that Vegeta is actually Vegeta IV or the Fourth, King Vegeta is Vegeta III or the Third,[38] as well the name of two Saiyans, Leek and Taro, who were shown together with Bardock.[39]

The film is distributed in Japan by Toei Company in cooperation with 20th Century Fox, while its international distribution rights are owned by 20th Century Fox. Funimation bought the rights for theatre screen in the United States and Canada, as well other release and broadcast rights.[32] In addition to regular screenings, it is also screened in IMAX, MX4D, and 4DX.[1] The film is the first anime to be screened in IMAX in the United States, with a limited projection on January 16, 2019.[40][41]

On July 19, 2018, trailers for both the subtitled and dubbed versions were released online after being shown at San Diego Comic-Con.[42][43] On October 5, 2018, the second official trailer for both the subtitled and dubbed versions were released online after being shown at New York Comic Con during the Dragon Ball Super: Broly panel at the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden.[44] The third trailer was released on November 7, 2018, but only subtitled,[17] while dubbed version on 20 December.[45] The fourth which was a music trailer featuring the theme song "Blizzard" was released on November 24, 2018.[46] The fifth and final trailer was released on 29 November 2018,[47] with a dubbed version, also of the theme song, on 4 December 2018.[48] Each trailer covered a different aspect of the film; the first introduced Broly and his fights against Vegeta, Goku and Frieza, the second their origin stories, the third more scenes from the fights, the fourth recapped previous scenes, and fifth which was the shortest introduced Gogeta's battle against Broly.[45]

Reception

Box office

Japan

In its opening weekend between 14-16 December 2018, the film was shown on 467 screens in Japan, and surpassed Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' to set a new opening weekend record for the franchise.[53] It opened at number-one at Japanese box office by dominating the weekend from December 14 to 16, selling more than 820,000 tickets and earning more than ¥1.05 billion ($9.26 million) in its first three days.[54] In its first six days it sold more than 1 million tickets and earned ¥1.3 billion ($11.6 million).[55] The Mainichi Shimbun newspaper reported that the film has earned more than 2 billion yen (US$18.1 million) after 11 days at the box office, being the fastest film in the franchise to hit that mark. It has also sold more than 1.5 million tickets.[56][57] After three weekends, on 31 December it earned $23.6 million in Japan, and roughly $24.4 million internationally.[58] According to Crunchyroll, after 24 days the film earned ¥3.35 billion on 2,604,870 tickets in Japan.[59] After 32 days of release (14 December 2018 to 14 January 2019), the film had earned ¥3.64 billion ($33.54 million), with 2,823,215 tickets having been sold.[60]

International

After four weekends, on January 6 it was estimated to have earned $32.3 million worldwide with $29.7 million coming from Japan and $3.3 million from five other countries, including highest-grossing opening by a Japanese film in Brazil with $1.7 million, and by a Japanese animation film in Malaysia with $232,000.[61][62][59] During its release on January 10 in Latin America, in Peru the film had the second best premiere in history reaching 257,420 spectators on its first day of release, only surpassed by the Avengers: Infinity War with 291,629 in 2018,[63] as well best premiere for an animation film in Bolivia.[64] In Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay, Puerto Rico and Uruguay also debuted at number-one on box office.[65][66][67][68][69] In its opening week in Latin America it debuted with $19.2 million, reportedly over $6.1 million in Mexico alone.[70][71] According to Deadline Hollywood, "Peru ($2.5M) and Argentina ($1.55M) gave Fox its biggest opening weekend ever, followed by Chile ($1.7M) with the industry’s 3rd biggest animation opening of all time. In Colombia it's Fox's 4th biggest opening weekend ever at $1.5M and in Ecuador, the Toei anime fantasy is Fox's top launch ever, and the 3rd best superhero bow, behind Avengers: Infinity War and Thor: Ragnarok".[72] In its 5th public weekend ending 13 January 2019, Dragon Ball Super: Broly grossed $20.3 million from 17 territories, becoming the weekend's third top-grossing film in international markets, behind only Bumblebee and Aquaman, which brought the film's worldwide gross to $54.3 million ahead of its US premiere.[73][74]

Critical response

On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 82%, based on 17 reviews as of 16 January 2019, with an average rating of 6.6/10.[75] According to Pia's first-day satisfaction survey, it ranked as No 1. with audience approval rating of 92.7%.[76] It received critical acclaim from the initial critical reviews by Anime News Network, IGN, and Comic Book praising the story, animation style, humour, as well Broly for making the movie a "meaningful character piece about a broken man haunted by his abuse-filled past—twisted into something he was never destined to become".[5][6][77] In a 5 out of 5 stars review by Stuff, it was considered as the "best Dragon Ball film" with the only prominent critical point that "there are certain scenes where it transitions between 2D animation and 3D ... which can disrupt the flow of it all".[78] Ollie Barder writing for Forbes, stated that the "only real criticism at this point is that after this solid narrative starting setup, we have a pretty hefty time jump to where we are post-Dragon Ball Super. Considering the depth and breadth of the story between these points of time, it would have been nice to have a bit more exposition to help with the pacing. However, that said, this is already a long movie and we all know that we have a massive fight to look forward to".[79] Allegra Frank of Polygon concluded that the movie "gets the fundamentals of Dragon Ball extremely right, no matter where you're coming in from", with "no grand statements to be made in Dragon Ball Super: Broly, and more amusement than anxiety".[80]

Awards & Accolades

The movie was nominated for the Animation of the Year at 42nd Japan Academy Prize.[81]
