For Part 2, we'll be highlighting the awesome photo spot, multiple figures, and more!

Jump Original Illustration World

Over 140 different pieces of autographed, full-color illustrations, along with stunning original artwork, were displayed in the Jump Original Illustration World area! The illustration of Black Frieza pictured above was drawn by Dragon Ball Super's Toyotarou, and the metallic-like coloring really made it stand out as something cool and unique!

Jump Amusement Island

Jump Amusement Island had all sorts of game demos and attractions for visitors to enjoy! We really enjoyed trying out DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO at VJ Game Park.

People were lining up to punch out the androids at this game based on Dragon Ball SD! Fans who enjoyed the attractions were able to receive a special Jump Amusement Island sticker at random from a lineup that included Dragon Ball SD designs!

There was a commemorative stamp rally where visitors could receive a special badge celebrating the 40th anniversary of Dragon Ball by collecting stamps at the various Dragon Ball booths located in the Jump Festa 2025 venue! There were all sorts of other cool events celebrating the 40th anniversary as well, including a photo spot recreating the cover illustration of the very first volume of the Dragon Ball manga!

Bandai / BANDAI SPIRITS Dragon Ball DAIMA-Related Items Spotlight!

We got to see a huge booth featuring Bandai / BANDAI SPIRITS' Dragon Ball series! The booth had an area with a giant monitor that was surrounded by all sorts of Dragon Ball DAIMA merchandise, and we'll be going over some of what we saw!

First off, we have a sample from Dragon Ball Sticker Cookies, a new food series that comes with an exciting sticker, either featuring a character from Dragon Ball DAIMA, or one of the warriors who fought in the intense battles from Dragon Ball Z! The cookies themselves feature designs of well-known Dragon Ball emblems and items!

We even got to see the S.H.Figuarts King Gomah figure, which has only recently become available for pre-order! Even though he's the mastermind responsible for miniaturizing Goku and the others, it's hard to hate the little scamp when you see this figure!

This display featured figures posed to look like a scene from the opening credit sequence of Dragon Ball DAIMA!

Finally, we saw this high-quality, statue-type figure that is part of the Figuarts ZERO series and recreates the main visual from Dragon Ball DAIMA! We'll definitely be keeping an eye out for more information!


There was plenty of other merchandise that caught our eye, so check it all out in this video!

Bandai / BANDAI SPIRITS Dragon Ball Series Items Spotlight!

The Bandai / BANDAI SPIRITS booth had plenty of merchandise from series other than Dragon Ball DAIMA too, and we'll be showcasing a few of those for you!

Here we have the second wave of the popular Gashapon® series of waiting toys, MACHIBOKE: Dragon Ball! Even Frieza, the self-proclaimed emperor of the universe, looks adorable in this chibi-fied style, doesn't he?

In the crane game prize corner, we got to see some of the current and future items that will be available to win in crane games!
Among them were the new MATCH MAKERS series of figures, which will be released over a three-month period in the spring. These figures were arranged in a magnificent display that recreated a famous Weekly Shonen Jump cover illustration and drew lots of positive buzz from the crowd!

This display featured the Ichiban Kuji Dragon Ball EX Son Goku Training Arc figures that will be rolling out to stores starting February 8th! There are some rare versions of popular characters here that you won't want to miss, like young Chichi, or Krillin from when he asks to train with Kamesennin and Goku!

Finally, this amazing Figuarts ZERO Goku & Bulma figure was on display, set up with a panel featuring the Shonen Jump cover illustration it was inspired by! That same cover was featured in the issue in which Dragon Ball began being serialized! Akira Toriyama's drawing style is captured impeccably here in three-dimensional form!

MegaHouse Booth

In the MegaHouse booth, we saw these cute Goku and Vegeta figures that were being shown for the first time! The trademark pose the Lookup series is known for really suits the mini versions of these characters and makes them look extra adorable!

There was also a big display of the DESKTOP REAL McCOY EX series of figures, which use high-quality molds to recreate various illustrations!

Bandai Namco Entertainment Booth

The Bandai Namco Entertainment Booth was drawing everyone's attention with its gigantic Goku balloon! At this booth, we had fun playing the new DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO 3D fighting action game that was released in October 2024.

The 40th Anniversary Collaboration Dream TOMICA on Display at the Takara Tomy Booth!

The recently released Dream TOMICA x Dragon Ball series was showcased in this unique display!

We have more details on these items in a separate report, so check out the related article!

Toei Animation Booth

The last booth we'll be talking about is the Toei Animation Booth, which was very popular due to the new Dragon Ball DAIMA anime! Visitors could take pictures with statues of miniaturized Goku and King Gomah, and there were acrylic panels featuring all sorts of other characters, too!

There were games where you could defeat enemies using a Nyoibo just like Goku or you could try your hand at summoning Shenron. What's more, you could earn special prizes by taking on these challenges! Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo even showed up to have some fun at the booth as well!
Our DB special correspondents got some pictures of them, so be sure to search for them. They might have caught them in some rare poses!

A Special Correspondent Campaign Is Happening on X (Twitter)!

We're holding a DB special correspondent campaign on X (Twitter)! Dragon Ball fans who attended the event are continuing to tweet about all the Dragon Ball content they saw using the #DBfancontent hashtag. Check their posts out, because in addition to photos with the characters we just mentioned, they got shots of all sorts of items that we weren't able to cover here!
