The re-introduction of Broly does, however, present some questions over exactly what falls within the franchise canon. The popularity of Broly was finally acknowledged in the Dragon Ball Super anime series with the introduction of Kale, a Saiyan who was immediately dubbed 'female Broly' by fans due to her strikingly similar appearance and abilities.

Broly first appeared in 1993's The Legendary Super Saiyan and went on the become the breakout star of the Dragon Ball movie series, appearing in a variety of wider, albeit non-canon, media. Toei Animation have now confirmed that the project's official title will be Dragon Ball Super: Broly, with the Saiyan of the same name set to return to the franchise. Unlike many early big screen Dragon Ball adventures, Toriyama has been heavily involved in the production of the new movie, writing the script and contributing character designs, and a full trailer is expected to premiere at this year's San Diego Comic Con. Over recent months, details surrounding the upcoming film have slowly emerged, with franchise creator Akira Toriyama confirming that the Dragon Ball Super movie would take place directly following on from the TV anime series but would also focus on the origins of the Saiyan race and include the iconic villain, Frieza. As such, many fans were left disappointed and confused when Dragon Ball Super was brought to an end after the Tournament of Power arc, however the announcement of a brand new movie went some way to appeasing unhappy viewers. Despite its status as elder statesman of the anime world, the popularity of the Dragon Ball franchise has yet to fade, as proven by the success of its most recent series, Dragon Ball Super, both in Japan and the West. The forthcoming 20th Dragon Ball movie is now officially titled Dragon Ball Super: Broly and will feature a return for the popular villain of the same name.
