The animation industry has never been faced with a soap opera as big as it has with internal affairs Dragon Ball Super 2. Everyone knows that there is something somewhere, but TOEI Animation continues to hide its trail and spread hints here and there that are immediately captured by fans and insiders.

A few days ago, we discussed the possibility that Dragon Ball Super 2 could debut in the summer of 2021, all in the light of End of Digimon Adventure 2020. But after years of rumors and rumors, the question arises almost spontaneously: Why is the expected sequel delaying her debut so much?

The answer to the question may sound very inappropriate, but given the latest financial data from TOEI Animation, a certain hypothesis now seems self-evident: there is simply no need. Dragon Ball is one of the studio’s most profitable franchises, even in times of crisis and without the help of a television adaptation behind it to increase their number. Animation is part of an industry whose primary goal is profit. That’s why an anime aims to maximize revenue. For its part, TOEI continues to put dizzying numbers aside, without airing new episodes, and tries to cope with the surge of popularity and broadcast all follow-up at the right time. All of this, of course, with the aim of gathering more people without taking the risk of biting their own tail. And on the one hand he knows that the mistake lies with Akira Toriyama, on the other hand there is no need to speed things up: DB Super 2 will come sooner or laterJust be a little more patient.
