The movie’s appearance at the upcoming convention will include a panel for the movie which will feature a Q&A with talent and production members, including the guest of honor Toshio Furukawa, (the Japanese voice actor for Piccolo), Christopher R. Sabat (the English voice of Piccolo), executive producer Akio Iyoku, and producer Norihiro Hayashida.
Perhaps most exciting for fans in attendance, however, is that the first 20 minutes of the film will be shown off exclusively at the convention. Alongside the panel, Crunchyroll and Toei Animation are set to produce a one-of-a-kind Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero-themed booth that will include a replica of Piccolo’s house as shown in the film.
“The Red Ribbon Army was once destroyed by Son Goku. Individuals, who carry on its spirit, have created the ultimate Androids, Gamma 1 and Gamma 2,” reads the official synopsis. “These two Androids call themselves ‘Super Heroes’. They start attacking Piccolo and Gohan … What is the New Red Ribbon Army’s objective? In the face of approaching danger, it is time to awaken, Super Hero!”
