The future of Dragon Ball Super is about to get extended and fans are excited.
” Dragon Ball Super ” fans have reason to celebrate, as the future of the series appears secure, with the release of special chapter 104 in February and the upcoming release of episode 24.
This new volume goes on sale in Japan starting April 4, 2025, suggesting that the manga, originally created by the late Akira Toriyama and illustrated by Toyotarou, will continue to delight fans for the foreseeable future.
Now, social media is flooded with promotional images for the highly anticipated episode 24. One of the most notable images is Black Frieza on the back cover, hinting that he will be the final threat Goku and friends will face, as reflected on the main cover.
However, what caught the most attention was the illustration on the spine of the book, which did not end but continued, suggesting that there were more volumes to come. This suggests that new chapters of Dragon Ball Super will be coming soon, with Toyotarou’s creation being entirely his own.

Uncertainty surrounding “Dragon Ball Super” arose after the sudden death of creator Akira Toriyama in March 2024. The legendary creator’s final animated project was “Dragon Ball Daima,” with 20 episodes airing from October 2024 to February 2025, to commemorate the series’ 40th anniversary, although it was not originally conceived for that purpose.
Meanwhile, the “Dragon Ball Super” manga has been on hiatus for nearly a year following the 2022 “Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero” film adaptation, with chapter 103 being the last work written by Toriyama. The closure of this film storyline serves as a symbolic passing of the torch to Toyotarou, his chosen successor.
February 20, 2025 marked the return of the manga with special chapter 104, which explored how Trunks and Goten became superheroes. While some fans enjoyed the callbacks and formal introductions to the original anime characters, others found it to be a generic premise that was still just a prelude to the 2022 film. Still, the volume provided an interesting look at the direction the series is taking under Toyotarou’s direction.
The cover of volume 24, featuring Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta, Beast Gohan, Orange Piccolo, and Legendary Super Saiyan Broly, has drawn mixed reactions. Some fans were surprised by the more raw and realistic depictions of the Z-Warriors, a departure from Toriyama’s signature art style. Others welcomed the stark contrast Toyotarou made to his mentor. With this release, “Dragon Ball Super” fans are eagerly anticipating what’s to come in the new era led by Toriyama’s creative successor.
