Three little news posts in one day? Happy first day of October I guess! Time for some Dragonball news for some wondrefully testorone-pumped nostalgia.
The folks at Japantor have posted an image and some information regarding the short anime film of Dragonball that will premiere as a part of the celebratory Jump Super Anime Tour. It’s written by Akira Toriyama himself so fear not another GT. The story starrs a newly-introduced-to-the-DB-universe Saiyan-jin, who just so happens to be Vegeta’s younger brother. I’m looking forward to it!
And, what may not be counted as going in as good a direction (depending on who you ask), a bootlegged version of the Dragonball live-action movie trailer has surfaced. The Anime Blog crew has found it and put it up for the masses to see. Gotta say, like them, I am quite underwhelmed… but then again I suppose hopes were never too high in the first place. Regardless, I still think it looks like a fun movie to watch in theatre, just maybe not in the form of this childhood memory massacre. It was reported a few weeks ago that this trailer will be premiering during the upcoming theatre release of Max Payne on October 17.
