Dragon Ball Super had the Herculean task of bringing back Goku and his allies for a new set of adventures worthy of the venerable franchise. It's predecessor Dragon Ball Z ended years before, and it became one of the most iconic anime and manga franchises ever. Super has thankfully been up to the task of adding to the story in a reverent and epic way, though it wasn't the only sequel to the beloved DBZ.
