Trivia / Super Dragon Ball Heroes

• B-Team Sequel: None of the animators working in the series are Toei's best, as they were working to make Dragon Ball Super: Broly at the time. To quote AnimeAjay, Heroes is not meant to be a groundbreaking anime, being extended versions of the Dragon Ball Heroes commercials, with voice acting in this case.
  • The key animators are Yukihiro Kitano and Jin Inaba. Kitano was the supervisor for many of Dragon Ball Super's questionable episodes (24, 62) and was demoted by the point of the Universal Survival Saga.
  • Tadayoshi Yamamuro, who was the character designer for much of the franchise since Dragon Ball Z, was replaced after Super ended, with Shintani taking over for the Super movie. He, however, still works as the character designer and storyboard artist for Heroes.
  • Ryo Nanba marks his debut as an episode director with episode 1. Nanba began as an Assistant Production Manager for Super, and later became an Assistant Director.
  • Subverted in Episode 13, for at least one sequence. Naotoshi Shida is one of the best-regarded Dragon Ball animators, whose work can be traced as far back as the original Dragon Ball and to as recently as Dragon Ball Super Broly. Of course, without a weekly TV anime or a movie in production now, it's likely that more talent can be spared for tangential projects.
• Fan Translation: The series has been translated by a team of fans involving Terez27 (moderator of the /dbz/ subreddit, in charge of production), Cipher and SailorSpazz (members of kanzenshuu, in charge of the translation) and AnimeAjay (in charge of typesetting). They decided to stop at episode 19, with the conclusion of the second arc due to a lack of interest, people on Youtube stealing their content and finding Heroes, in Terez words, "painfully bad."
• No Export for You: The Heroes promotional anime is only being released in Japan and is region-locked, so fans will have to watch it somewhere else. Also leads to a case of No Dub for You.
• Recycled Set: Despite the story stating the events takes place in Sadala, the background from episodes 7 to 8 is recycled from the future timeline Earth from Dragon Ball Super.
