That's right. Alongside the new DragonBall anime coming up in July will be a manga adaption of the same name.

 

The manga is being handled by Akira Toriyama alongside Toyotaro, the artist behind DragonBall Heroes: Victory Mission and the DragonBall Z: Resurrection 'F' manga adaption. 

 

Now, adapting an anime into a manga and vice-versa is not a new idea, especially not for DragonBall's demographic, but it appears the manga is reportedly going to release at the time as the anime will be airing on television.

 

It is going to be a straight adaption? Or maybe it'll cover events not going to be shown in the anime? I personally don't have the answer, but I am excited/interested none-the-less.

I'm just glad that Dragon Ball Super is canon so I'm good reading it and watching it.

I'd be surprised if it didn't.

If it's exactly the same as the anime, I'll probably read that instead of watching the anime, and wait for the English dub to be released to watch it. If not, then I guess I'll follow both at the same time.
