Dragon Ball Super Dope - A Dragon Ball Podcast

After nearly eight years of waiting, Dragon Ball Super is officially coming back — and the announcements out of Japan have the fandom split right down the middle.
In this episode of Dragon Ball Super Dope, I break down everything revealed at the Genki Dai Matsuri event, including the long-rumored return of the anime with Dragon Ball Super: Galactic Patrol, a brand-new Dragon Ball Super: Beerus remake, and a mysterious new Dragon Ball video game that claims deep ties to Akira Toriyama's legacy.
We start with the big one: Dragon Ball Super: Galactic Patrol, which all but confirms the long-awaited Moro arc will finally be animated. While there's no release date yet, this announcement officially ends years of speculation — Super is back, and it's moving forward instead of being rebooted or remastered into oblivion.
Then comes the curveball. Dragon Ball Super: Beerus is slated for late 2026 and appears to be a high-budget, six-episode re-telling of Battle of Gods. The animation quality looks incredible… but do we really need to see Beerus arrive on Earth for the fourth time? I dig into why this feels frustrating, what it could mean for a full "Dragon Ball Super Kai" style remake, and whether redoing Super with manga-accurate storytelling might actually be worth it.
Finally, we talk games. Dragon Ball Project / Age 1000 introduces a new original character (Kino?) and claims heavy involvement from Akira Toriyama — which raises some uncomfortable questions about transparency, legacy marketing, and how Dragon Ball moves forward creatively. Is this Xenoverse 3, a Dragon Ball Online revival, or something else entirely?
Along the way, I get personal about what Dragon Ball Super Dope has meant to me, how the Tournament of Power era shaped this podcast, and why seasonal Dragon Ball might actually be the best possible future for the franchise.
If you've been waiting for Moro, Granolah, Gas, and Black Frieza to finally hit the screen — this episode is for you.

In this episode, Kyle breaks down My Hero Academia Episode 169, The Girl Who Loves Smiles — the emotional penultimate chapter before the series finale. From Lady Nagant's decision to stay imprisoned, to Gentle and LaBrava's reunion, to Deku delivering Shigaraki's final message to Spinner, this one is packed with heavy character payoffs.
But the heart of the episode is Ochako vs. her grief. Kyle dives deep into her breakdown, Deku's confession, and how this moment ties all the way back to the entrance exam. If you love MHA's emotional storytelling, this is one of the most powerful episodes of the entire series.

In this episode of Super Dope Plus Ultra, I'm diving into My Hero Academia Episode 168, Epilogue: The Hellish Todoroki Family – Final. This one shifts gears hard — from global cleanup and post-war rehab to some of the most emotional character fallout we've seen all season. I talk through Deku's recovery, Bakugo's absolutely brutal breakdown over losing his rival, Mirio's graduation speech, Aoyama's exit, Shinso's big Class 2-A debut, and the weird-ass haircut that Deku is now stuck living with. A lot of characters finally get closure — some uplifting, some tragic, all very "yep, this world is never going to be the same."
Then we get into the heart of the episode: the Todoroki family's final confrontation with Dabi. Shoto's frozen-over new look, Endeavor's shattered state, Rei and the siblings carrying years of trauma on their faces — the whole family looks like they walked out of literal hell, which is exactly the point. And when Toya admits his favorite food and quietly apologizes, man… it hits. I break down all of it, plus Hawks' new role, restoration work ahead for Class 2-A, next week's Gentle/Spinner/Uravity teases, and whether My Hero Academia is about to deliver one of the all-time great anime endings.

Deku goes PLUS ULTRA for real in My Hero Academia Episode 167, and I'm breaking down every wild moment — Class 1-A's Endgame entrance, Aoyama's redemption, Shigaraki vs. All For One inside the Vestige world, and Deku's final, sky-clearing punch. Gentle Criminal shows up, Bakugo blasts in, and the entire world screams ganbare.
