A triumphant return.

Published:

Toei Animation and Macy’s have confirmed that the balloon of Goku from the iconic Dragon Ball franchise will return for the 100th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which takes place on November 26 in New York City. This will mark the 8th appearance of Goku at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and it’s the same balloon from the 2025 iteration of the parade. 

Fans can also look forward to the English dub for the Dragon Ball Super: Beerus anime, which is set to premiere on November 12 at 8:00 a.m. PT on Crunchyroll. The anime is already streaming with English subtitles. 

Dragon Ball Super: Beerus is an enhanced version of the Dragon Ball Super anime with improved animation and sound, redrawn cuts, and a “reconstructed narrative.” The anime covers the events of the God of Destruction Beerus Arc (Battle of Gods), Frieza’s Revival Arc (Resurrection of F), and Universe 6 Arc.

MEGATERA・ZERO performs the opening theme song “ONOGAMI,” and VK Blanka performs the ending theme song “Kan Peki No Peki.” The main Japanese cast includes Masako Nozawa as Son Goku and Kōichi Yamadera as Beerus.

The staff of the anime includes chief animation director and animation character designer Tadayoshi Yamamuro, director of photography Yōsuke Motoki, and composer Norihito Sumitomo. Matsuto Seya handles series composition, Eiichi Nishimura handles editing, and the story and character designs are based on those of the late great Akira Toriyama.

In addition, the Dragon Ball Super anime will continue in Dragon Ball Super The Galactic Patrol. Dragon Ball Super The Galactic Patrol will cover the events of the manga’s Moro arc, after much anticipation from fans.
