Bandai has revealed the name of the next Dragon Ball Super Card Game expansion. The title of this set is Zenkai Series – Critical Blow. This is the fifth expansion of the Zenkai Series and is overall the 22nd main series Dragon Ball Super Card Game set. This set does include a God Rare, which makes that as-of-yet unrevealed card the fourth God Rare in the hobby after Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta from Realm of the Gods, Bardock from Rise of the Z-Legends, and Son Goku from Wild Resurgence. So far, we can confirm that this expansion includes multiple focuses, including the Z-era Broly movies (including Broly – The Legendary Super Saiyan, Broly – Second Coming, and Bio-Broly) and DBS: Super Hero. Today, let's take a look at more Special Rare reveals from the Red-colored section of Dragon Ball Super Card Game: Zenkai Series – Critical Blow.

Cell Max, Reborn of Despair, depicts the lead villain of last summer's film, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. This film was the first time that we have seen the series return as an anime in quite a while. 2018 saw the end of the first run of the Super anime series with the Tournament of Power arc. Less than a year after that finale, Akira Toriyama brought it back with the one-off film DBS: Broly. However, we haven't gotten anything animated between 2019 and 2022. Does Super Hero signal the return of the anime? There is, after all, a lot to cover as the manga has pushed forward with multiple major sagas, and both Broly and Super Hero will likely be lengthened into full animated sagas as well.
