Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods TV Ads

Two new Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods TV ads have been released! The first is related to food company Ace Cook, who is selling Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods themed instant ramen at Japanese grocery stores. It features a scene, we assume is from the movie, with Goku powering up. The cards shown are gift cards, worth ¥500 (about $5.63 USD) each, that can be won by 10,000 people buying participating products. Those gift cards can be used across bookstores in Japan. Thanks Jaye Stephen for the heads up.

The second is a 30 second ads that shares a lot of scenes from the Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods Trailer that was released a few months ago. The only difference we noted was Vegeta flying at the 16 second mark. A similar screenshots was revealed last week

Lastly is a snapshot from a Dragon Ball Z guidebook. It mentions Bils, the God of Destruction, has awoken after being a sleep for 39 years. His awakening means that planets which he oversees will be destroyed. One of the planets in his jurisdiction? Earth. The snapshot doesn’t give any information on Whiss other then he is an attendant for Bils.

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods is the 18th movie in the Dragon Ball anime series. It will take place between Dragon Ball manga chapters 517 and 518, in the 10 year timeskip after Goku defeats Buu, but before the 28th World Martial Arts Tournament. Akira Toriyama along with Toei Animation, Fox International Productions Japan, Shueisha, Fuji TV, Bandai, and Namco Bandai Games are all involved. Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods is set to release in Japanese theaters March 30, 2013. There is no word on a North American or European release date at this time for either movie.

    8th

  • GamerKT

    SO HAVE I.

  • SalvadorRamirez

    nothing new

  • edo Sasori

    I can’t begin to tell you how disspleased I am with Goku’s Japanese voice does not match what so ever. Not to mention it’s so high pitch like Goku took a Kamehameha straight to the balls.

    They should just release this with ENG DUB asap so i can hear his proper voice.

  • julian alexander

    i thought i was getting punk’d when i saw the super pot noodles thing

  • Jōki Bōi

    same here friend.

  • RedDragon10

    That voice has been the same for 20+ years. If you’re just hearing it now, I don’t know what to tell you.

  • Jōki Bōi

    I have heard it before I just have never liked it. The Eng voice is by far suprior when it come sto matching Goku his JAP voice sounds like a chipmunk come on bro you have to admit it.

  • RedDragon10

    I never said that I preferred that voice. I am a DBZ dub guy all the way (except for the new Kai stuff when they changed the voices of some of the characters). But I’m not going to insult the VA who’s been voicing him for all these years and obviously has a cult-like following in Japan.

  • Jōki Bōi

    Fair enough

    For some strange reason, I’m kinda GLAD that Toei remembered putting in the lightning sparks for SSJ2 at the very least! ;D (I’m referring to the 1st ad here where Goku’s powering up)

  • Therockerninja

    Please allow Vegeta to go super saiyan 3 in this by god, I would have sex with myself 100′s over!

  • ibster

    i don’t know if I’ve just grown out of it or what but im just not feeling it for some reason…

    I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Goku’s Japanese voice made to sound like how he looks but but it’s meant to sound like how he acts which is a child. There is a reason why Akira Toriyama personally handpicked Masako Nozawa to play as Goku, because that’s how he envisions Goku’s voice in his mind. If you have an open mind you will come to respect Goku’s Japanese voice like I did.

    Personally speaking I prefer the Ocean Dubbed version of Goku’s voice more than both his Japanese voice and his Funimation voice because it’s a combination of him sounding like a man-child while fitting the character. In my opinion the Funimation voice for Goku(which is voiced by Sean Schemmel) only fits with Buu Saga since many years have passed.

    Welcome to Japan my friend LOL

  • James

    only 15 seconds though? hopefully not all TV ads are that short in japan, Goku even had to speed up his Kamehameha Wave at the end..

  • Bardock-SSJ2

    NEXT MONTH THIS EPIC MOVIE COMES OUT XD

  • Bardock-SSJ2

    Me too, even the 1st time I got into it, I remember when I don’t know much about it and now I am the walking encyclopedia XD

  • sam

    English dub for dragonball Z was probably the best of any anime. I really hope this comes stateside in english.

  • Uchiha Madara

    I got into to it because the first day the manga came out my brother got it and after 2 years past when i was born i saw it on his book shelf and then I started reading it alot and volume 2 only came out when I started reading it!

    You can’t be the first comment if you’re replying to a comment. Do you have a brain?

  • http://www.facebook.com/nick.goldpenny Nick Goldpenny

    Lol yeah you know what your taking about. Last ad I saw yesterday was a ten minute beer add. I thought the show I was watching had ended. Why dont you actually go to Japan before you act like such a fanboy.

  • Narutofan92

    shut the F..K up

  • http://Youtube.com/Jmeny14 Killer Popo

    This is why I can’t stand this website anymore, because butthurt airheads like you can’t take a joke -__-

    F.Y.I. Look up the definition of a “fanboy,” because clearly you don’t know what it means. Instead of being a judgemental asswhipe how about you actually get a sense of humor before you start taking things out of context

    oh hush

  • Uchiha Madara

    lol

  • adam price

    Vegeta can’t go ssj3 in the GT episodes so it wouldn’t work

  • TheMuslimKnight

    when did they say he CANT… he just never did.

  • TheMuslimKnight

    u people dont get it do u? even if dbz got dubbed u do know they most likely wouldnt use old cast.

  • disqus_WSawy9KcRe

    I can’t wait I’ve been waiting for a new Dragon ball z movie is been forever since they made a new one

  • James

    i dont take his comment personal the word fanboy is thrown around so much these days its kind of lost its meaning
    you got my joke though lol
    it’s all good bro

  • http://Youtube.com/Jmeny14 Killer Popo

    Yeah I know dude it’s all good LOL

  • http://www.facebook.com/mike.valentine.718 Mike Valentine

    But 1: GT is not Canon and not recognized by Toriyama as part of his series. 2: GT Sucks and 3: …..GT SUCKS! and 4: Maybe Vegeta Never went SS3 in GT because he knew it drains energy too fast and thus would be futile.

  • Victoras Lambropoylos

    ur all so lucker in Greece they don’t have animes so i need to download the episodes oh man i wish i could be in Japan!!

  • http://www.facebook.com/nick.goldpenny Nick Goldpenny

    There is my answer I guess. You are an idiot. Gratz.

  • http://www.facebook.com/nick.goldpenny Nick Goldpenny

    It’s okay, your wrong and an idiot, you’re mad I called you out because I know what I’m talking about. You’re a smelly otaku. A fan boy for all things Japan. I bet you tell people you speak japanese don’t you? Cuz you can say hello and thank you? Grow up, “butthurt” seriously? Are you ten? Go to Japan, learn a little and stop thinking because you own the entire box set of inuyasha you know everything about the country it’s from. Troll.

    *Facepalm* Reread your comment and then look up the definition of what a “troll” is and you will see that you easily fit the description.
