Toei Animation produces the Japanese anime television series Dragon Ball Z.

From April 1989 until January 1996, the series ran on Fuji TV in Japan. It was then dubbed for international distribution in at least 81 countries.

Viz Media first published the manga chapters that make up the anime's plot under the Dragon Ball Z moniker due to the anime's popularity in the United States.
