Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol Arc Release Date – Everything You Need To Know

by

Fans of Dragon Ball are thrilled about the anime’s return! The series has been on break for a while, and its absence was definitely noticed by anime lovers everywhere. Dragon Ball is a legendary series that’s remained popular for forty years, and it looks like it will continue to be for a long time to come. It’s arguably the most enduring shonen anime, and with plenty of source material still available, we can expect more Dragon Ball anime for years to come.

The last eight years haven’t been without challenges for Dragon Ball, but things are looking up! Dragon Ball Super is getting a remastered anime later this year, though fans are most eager to find out when the Galactic Patrol Arc will be released – it’s the start of a new storyline. With so much new information coming out, exciting times are ahead for Dragon Ball fans.

Dragon Ball Super Remake Will Begin Later This Year

  • Dragon Ball Super: Beerus begins in Fall 2026
  • New anime remaster by Toei Animation modernizes Dragon Ball Super

Before the new Dragon Ball Super arc, ‘The Galactic Patrol,’ airs, the series will revisit and update the first story arcs that were already animated. When Dragon Ball Super returns in 2026, it will begin with the ‘Battle of Gods’ arc. While fans have seen this story several times already, this reboot aims to refresh the entire franchise. Starting from the beginning will allow the series to build a strong foundation and tell these stories in a new and improved way.

The “Battle of Gods” story arc in Dragon Ball Super will be six episodes long, and the following “Frieza” arc will also be six episodes. This project, initially known internally as “Dragon Ball Super: Kai,” is essentially a remastered version of the original series. While there won’t be much new material, the remake will feature updated artwork, corrections to errors, and improved pacing.

The upcoming anime is shaping up to have much better pacing, as the Battle of Gods arc will be covered in just six episodes. Fans are eagerly anticipating this improvement! After the anime finishes the Tournament of Power arc, it will finally move on to the long-awaited Galactic Patrol arc, which promises to be incredibly exciting.

Dragon Ball: The Galactic Patrol Arc Rumored For A 2027 Release Date

  • The Galactic Patrol Arc will introduce Moro to fans
  • New arc set for a reported 2027 release

The new ‘Dragon Ball: The Galactic Patrol Arc’ was revealed along with news of the anime being remastered. While a first look at the arc’s visuals was shared, details are still scarce, and it won’t be airing anytime soon. This is logical, as the remastered anime hasn’t even started yet. Considering the number of story arcs ahead, fans can likely expect the anime to run for at least a year before the Galactic Patrol Arc begins.

Sources suggest the Dragon Ball Super anime will likely begin adapting the Galactic Patrol Arc around the end of 2027. This gives the show about a year to cover any remaining material before starting the new story arc from Toyotaro’s manga.

With the upcoming Galactic Patrol Arc introducing fresh story elements, it’s highly likely we’ll see new creative leadership in the form of a new Character Designer and Director. This suggests Dragon Ball might be heading in a new direction, and many fans are hoping either Naohiro Shintani or Chikashi Kubota will lead the project.

Dragon Ball Super Will Continue Beyond The Galactic Patrol Arc

  • The Garnolah Arc will also be adapted into the anime in due time
  • Dragon Ball Super won’t stop anytime soon

The Galactic Patrol arc is shaping up to be a real highlight of the Dragon Ball anime. It introduces Moro, a remarkably strong villain, and pushes Goku and Vegeta to achieve even greater power. This arc strongly hints at even more incredible developments to come for these two iconic characters, leaving fans eager to see what happens next.

I’m pretty sure the Dragon Ball Super anime isn’t ending with the Galactic Patrol arc. There’s definitely more to come, and I’d bet we’ll see the Granolah arc adapted into the show. Plus, it seems very likely that Toyotaro will pick up the manga again eventually – it wouldn’t make sense to start it and then just leave it. Once the manga continues, we can look forward to even more great storylines. Honestly, it feels like this is a fresh start for the whole Dragon Ball series. Whether Akira Toriyama is involved or not, I think this franchise will keep going strong and continue to celebrate his legacy.

Its The Beginning Of A New Era For DBS

While not every fan of the original Dragon Ball enjoys Dragon Ball Super, the previous anime adaptation wasn’t great either. It had its own problems with storytelling, often feeling disjointed and suffering from inconsistent animation and pacing.

The upcoming Dragon Ball Remaster and its manga adaptation are set to revitalize the series and usher in a fresh start for the entire Dragon Ball franchise. Fans are hoping this marks the end of long gaps between releases, and that Dragon Ball will remain popular for years to come, potentially reshaping the landscape of modern action anime.
