The latest addition to the popular franchise’s canon material goes off the rails, putting main characters Goku and Vegeta in the backseat to give some other fan-favourites a chance to shine.
**SPOILER ALERT!!!** If you haven’t seen the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie yet and would like to have a fresh experience when doing so, then it is highly suggested that you close this tab and refrain from reading any further. You have been warned.
Dragon Ball is one of those manga series that has been around long enough to have developed a respectable number of storylines and different characters for its creators to choose from (not as many as others like One Piece, Naruto or even Bleach, but still sufficient).
While that may quite often be seen as a boon, it can also work against them, as some beloved faces tend to get left behind with the appearance of others who have a more important part to play in the story. For example, once Vegeta and Frieza appeared, Yamcha and Tienshinhan, who were considered big players in Goku’s gang of ninja warriors, were left in the dust. Nowadays Yamcha serves as nothing more than comic relief.
