Our collective rears were tickled with the teaser trailer for a new Dragon Ball Z movie penned by its original creator, Akira Toriyama this past summer, and now a new glimpse of the new movie has arrived – the official title. Along with the announcement comes a once in a life time offer!
Toriyama had previously stated that “this movie will have the original atmosphere and a little bit of modern flavor” and this newest title change seems to reflect that.
Until now the working title of this theatrical release was Dragon Ball Z: Dragon Fist Explosion!! If Not Goku, Who Will Do It which was sensibly shortened considerably to Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon for English markets.
Although the original Japanese title reflects the wild and fun intensity that made the original series famous Toriyama seems to have toned it down to a more mature Dragon Ball Z: Kami to Kami which was localized to Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods.
In other Dragon Ball news, limited edition tickets will go on sale for the Battle of Gods release on 30 March and the upcoming release of One Piece Film Z on 15 December. There are 8989 tickets in total and they feature artwork from Akira Toriyama and Eiichiro Oda for their own movies. Here is a list of theaters selling (Japanese only), but they probably won’t last long.
