In the Summer of 2022, some people who are known for being reliable sources of long Ball-related news, such as Antonio Sànchez-Migallòn Jiménez (
Mr
Kaytos), reported that the reason why the Dragon Ball Super 2 anime was so late was that Shueisha (who owns the rights for the series) wanted the manga to lớn progress further before launching a new season of the anime. Later, rồng Ball "insider" dbs2019 (
dbs20191) added that Shueisha wanted to lớn focus on developing other media, such as clip games.

There has been no official announcement yet regarding a new Dragon Ball Super anime, and it's important to remember that all the sources cited above are unofficial, even if they are usually very reliable.

It's impossible lớn say, at this stage, if the same thing is happening khổng lồ the Dragon Ball Super anime or if the silence comes from the fact that, sadly, a new season of the anime is not in production as Shueisha prefers lớn focus on other projects at the moment.
