Release date: March 30th 2013 (Japanese release). 2014 (worldwide release).
Story: This story takes place years after Goku defeated Kid Buu and life on Earth has returned to normal. Goku is off training with King Ki, Vegeta and Piccolo are their usual selves, Gohan and Videl are now married and are expecting their first child, Mr Hercule Satan is being held as the one who defeated Kid Buu, and Bulma is celebrating her 39th birthday. Yes things are back to normal. Until a god of destruction awakes from a million years slumber and visits Earth in search of a being he had dreamt about know only as a Super Sayin God.
My thoughts: This is a great anime film. It has a lot of laughs and action that would please any anime fan. Lord Beerus and his servant Whis are interesting characters (Beerus resembling a humanoid Egyptian cat who is a selfish and spoiled type of person who has the ability to destroy entire worlds). There is only one thing that I didn't like in the movie. When they summoned Shenlong in order to find out who this Sayin god is, Shenlong reviles that he is scared of Beerus. I felt that this was out of character for the immortal dragon and that it should have been the other way round (seeing that Shenlong as the power to take away Beerus's powers or even erase him from existence altogether). The final fight between Goku and Beerus is spectacular. And the lengths that Vegeta goes through in order to prevent Beerus from destroying everything (including a hilarious bingo dance) can get a chuckle out of some people. Like I said this is a great anime film and it is a must have for any Dragonball and anime fans.
My score: Four stars.
