What Barbenheimer is to cinema fanatics, Comic Con is to the vast majority that thrives on video games, comics, and anime. Each year, this mass event outdoes itself as it brings to life some of the most popular pieces of entertainment for its fans. However, this year is not like the other years. In a departure from its usual focus on Western culture, Comic Con 2023 is bringing its Dragon Ball special exhibition.

The anime community may be well fed by Netflix as it is leaving no stone unturned to bring to life, two of the most popular masterpieces known to the community: Death Note and One Piece. Although the streamer may be yet to announce a Dragon Ball project, to the relief of many fans, Comic-Con does not slack when it comes to bringing honor and exclusives to the Akira Toriyama franchise.

Even before fans could stand in line to explore, IGN has graced fans with a Dragon Ball interactive experience with its trusted anime guru Max Scoville.

The tour provides a sneak peek into how giant the figurines at the doorstep of the Comic Con 2023 actually are as one is greeted with a giant inflatable Cell Max and Orange Piccolo before anything else.

You can visit this Dragon Ball wonderland at Comic-Con 2023 with just a few simple clicks (and a long line).
