Among numerous shonen anime franchises, it’s challenging to overlook the immense popularity of the Dragon Ball series in the gaming world. Although series like One Piece, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, Jujutsu Kaisen, and My Hero Academia also have video game adaptations, the Dragon Ball franchise has been consistently releasing new games over several decades across various platforms. One of the most successful games from this series is Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, which serves as a spiritual successor to the Budokai Tenkaichi series. In an unexpected turn, a non-canonical character named Shallot was introduced into the game, and Toyotaro, known for his work on Dragon Ball Super, has illustrated both Shallot and his twin brother.
For individuals seeking information on who Shallot is, this ancient Saiyan character was introduced as a unique fighter in the mobile game “Dragon Ball Legends”. Serving as the main playable character, players relive numerous iconic moments from the shonen series as Shallot travels through time and the multiverse. One of Shallot’s primary adversaries in the game is his evil twin brother, Giblet, with frequent conflicts between the two characters. Fortunately, Shallot can progress by acquiring different Super Saiyan transformations and unique abilities. You can find artwork featuring Shallot and Giblet created by Toyotaro below.

Shallot’s Anime Chances?
It’s clear that so far, the character Shallot hasn’t been included in any Dragon Ball series, not even in the spin-off series Dragon Ball Heroes. Given that time travel is a familiar concept for the Z-Fighters, it’s conceivable they might journey back in time in the future. If we look at how Broly was reintroduced, we can speculate that Shallot could have a changed appearance when he appears in Dragon Ball Legends someday.
Currently, it’s uncertain when Dragon Ball’s anime series will continue. After ending Dragon Ball Daimaoh earlier this year, Toei Animation has been silent about the return of the Z-Fighters on screen. Additionally, shonen enthusiasts are left waiting as the Dragon Ball Super manga has been on break for quite some time without any signs of resuming soon. Here’s hoping that the Z-Fighters will reappear in both formats at a later date.
On June 27th, the character Shallot will join the already expansive roster of Dragon Ball Sparking Zero as downloadable content. If you haven’t yet purchased this iconic fighting game, it can be found on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam. Given Shueisha’s continued commitment to Dragon Ball video games, it will be exciting to see which other original characters might appear in future releases.
