The Toei Animation Hack, which took place last March 6, has consequences for many popular anime. And if we thought dragonball potentially spared by this affair, the Toei has just admitted that it was not the case.
The Toei hack
March 11, 2022we learned that Toei Animation had been hacked by a third party a few days earlier. The intrusion of this third party was to affect anime broadcast times Dragon Quest Dai no Daiboken, Delicious Party Precure, Digimon Ghost Game and ONE PIECE.

All these anime should know breaks at different scales before the internal investigation is concluded. And today we just learned that dragonball was also concerned, through his latest film, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero.
Bad news for fans
The Toei released a statement this morning, which explains what changes will be coming to the film Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero.
The press release in question translates as follows :
About the movie release Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero
As previously reported, Toei animation, which is producing the film Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, which was scheduled for Japanese release on Friday, April 22, 2022, suffered unauthorized access to its servers/network (note: a hack) by a third party, which makes the release of the film complicated. Therefore, we have no choice but to push back the release of the film.
We apologize to everyone who was looking forward to the movie’s release. We will announce the new date soon. Thank you for your understanding.
A postponement that will not please the fans, but which is nevertheless a continuation of the announcements made by Toei over the past few days. Also, if you haven’t seen it yet, you can find Majin Vegeta’s official artworkby the mangaka of Dragon Ball Superjust here.
