During the course of the weekend a brand new ‘teaser trailer’ for Dragon Ball Super: Broly The Movie was released by Toei Animation, Bandai Namco Entertainment Japan and FUNimation; of which revealed a ‘key’ character for the film which receives it’s cinematic debut this month in Japan.

This trailer was promoted on YouTube’s front page and depending on where the trailer was viewed (UK, North America and Japan) would dictate on which variation of the trailer was shown; with each featuring a different date for the film being shown in cinemas.

When this advert was viewed from the UK the date “23rd January 2019” was displayed – as well as the trailer being shown in English – while viewing the advert in Japan had a 14th December 2018 date with Japanese audio presented.
