Goku and Vegeta standing next to each other.

Dragon Ball fans had something to be excited about on the 2025 TV schedule, and there is a chance they'll have even more to look forward to in the future. 2026 is a significant milestone for the franchise, as the IP starring Goku and friends will turn 40 in 2026.
