Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (Japanese: ドラゴンボースーパーヒーロー, Hepburn: Doragon Bōru Sūpā Sūpā Hīrō) is a 2022 Japanese computer-animated martial arts fantasy/adventure film, directed by Tetsuro Kodama, produced by Toei Animation and written by Dragon Ball series creator Akira Toriyama. It is the twenty-first Dragon Ball feature film overall, the fourth produced with Toriyama's direct involvement, the second to carry the Dragon Ball Super branding, and the first to be produced mainly using 3D animation. The film follows Piccolo and his former student Gohan as they go on a mission to save the world from the newly reformed Red Ribbon Army.
The film is the first to introduce a reiteration of Cell after the original Cell Saga. The character who was originally a human base of Android 21 from Dragon Ball FighterZ made a cameo appearance in this movie. It was originally set for release in Japan on April 22, 2022, but was instead released on June 11 due to a cyberattack at Toei Animation. It received positive reviews from critics, with praise for the nostalgia, character development, fan service, visuals, story, humor, and relationship between Gohan and Piccolo, but some criticized its animation.  The film grossed over $92 million worldwide, becoming the second-highest grossing Dragon Ball film to date, and, de facto, it's the second highest grossing film branded as "Dragon Ball Super".
