Dragon Ball fans are excited to see the upcoming Dragon Ball Super: Broly film introduce Broly into the canon series, rebooting the character after appearing in previous Dragon Ball Z films.
The film's director Tatsuya Nagamine was recently interviewed and thanks to a translation by Todd Blankenship on Twitter, we have more information about how Broly's character will be changed by series creator Akira Toriyama.
The director revealed that there are about "300-400" sheets of storyboard for Broly's actions in the film, and while Toriyama is focused on the villainous Saiyan's characterization, Nagamine was focused on "making [Broly] look super strong with various techniques."
It sounds like Broly's character will have more depth in the film, and I can't wait to see him in action. As you've seen in the trailer, Toriyama's design on Broly looks leaner than the original one we've seen in the Dragon Ball Z films.
Synopsis:
Dragon Ball Super: Broly is set to release in Japanese theaters this December, and it's expected to get a U.S. release in January 2019.
