About the manga DRAGON BALL

DRAGON BALL has been serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" for about 10 and a half years since 1984, and continues to be one of Japan's leading manga series. The comic series has sold an astounding 260 million copies worldwide, and even after the series ended, this monster-class mega-hit comic has continued to attract fans through various media mixes such as TV anime, movies, and games, boasting an extraordinary popularity around the world. In 2013, the movie version of the series was revived after a 17-year hiatus, and it was a huge hit one after another. Then in 2015, the series "Dragon Ball Super" under the original idea of Akira Toriyama began to air.

In 2022, the movie "DRAGON BALL SUPER: SUPER HERO" was released and not only was it No. 1 at the box office on its first weekend in Japan, but also became No. 1 at U.S. box offices for the first time. In October 2024, the 40th anniversary of the start of the series, a completely new anime series, "DRAGON BALL DAIMA," launched, marking a new chapter in the history of DRAGON BALL.

About TOMICA and Dream TOMICA

"TOMICA" was released in 1970 as Japan's first palm-sized domestic diecast miniature car series. At the time when foreign-made miniature cars were at the height of popularity, it was born out of a burning desire to see Japanese children playing with miniature cars of more familiar Japanese makes. It is now loved by parents and children across three generations. Up to now, the company has sold more than 1,170 different models, a total of more than 745 million cars (As of April 2024).

The "Dream TOMICA" series was launched in 2012, with "TOMICA collaborations that you dreamed of!" as its concept, and incorporates popular content that appeals to a wide range of target demographics.
