At the same time as the preview was released, the event also invited Goku's voice actor Masako Nozawa, "Dragon Ball Super" manga editor Akio Ino, and Toei Animation producer Shibori Hayashida to discuss the new work's character design and other details.

The host Sascha mentioned that the plot, lines and character design of the new work were all personally produced by the original manga artist Akira Toriyama: "He was deeply involved in the plot structure, character design and all the lines." Toriyama's words were then conveyed to the audience by editor Akio Ino:

“A brand new movie since Dragon Ball Super: Broly is in the works! Just like the last movie, I’m heavily directing the story and dialogue for another fantastic movie. I really shouldn’t talk too much about the plot, but be prepared for some intense and interesting battles, and there may be an unexpected character in the new work. We will explore some unexplored areas and give the audience an amazing journey in terms of visual aesthetics, so I hope everyone is looking forward to the new movie!”

At the same time, the guests also showcased the character designs of the new work, including Piccolo's classic design, Pan (Xiaofang) wearing an elementary school uniform, and Kobayashi wearing a brand new police uniform.

Afterwards, everyone discussed the world building and art design of the new anime's Earth, and for the first time showed the character Piccolo's home. His home is located on the lake above a waterfall, surrounded by lush green grass and trees, and the design of the house is similar to the Namek house in Dragon Ball Z. The guests also joked that there is a mailbox in the design of the house, but Piccolo can't send letters.

Finally, the official also announced the first original character design in the movie. This character was also designed by Akira Toriyama himself. The guests did not mention the origin and name of the character. It seems that the new character design should be a soldier from an alien planet.

"Dragon Ball Super: Super Heroes" is scheduled to be released in 2022, but the specific date has not yet been announced.
