The development of Beerus's characters first started sometime in 2011. His name and voice actors, along with the film's poster, were officially revealed in December 2012 in "Weekly Shōnen Jump"'s first issue of 2013; Beerus, the God of Destruction voiced by Kōichi Yamadera. The film poster displays Super Saiyan Goku combating the God of Destruction Beerus, with Whis floating showered in light in the background. The character was in the initial draft of the "Battle of Gods", though Toriyama notes Beerus was changed completely despite his liking of the concept.
