Last month, we learned that PAW Patrol, Dora, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and SpongeBob SquarePants would be taking part in this year's 98th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade – set for Thursday, November 28th (airing on NBC and streaming on Peacock). Well, it looks like they're going to be joined by Dragon Ball's Goku – with Toei Animation rolling out a look at the hero in his iconic Saiyan form that should look pretty badass floating through the streets of NYC.
Here's a look at the announcement that went out from Toei Animation earlier today that confirmed the news:
Dragon Ball's Goku is back and now in his iconic Saiyan form – debuting at the 98th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade this year! Catch the mighty warrior soar the skies and over the streets of New York City on November 28th! 🐉🎈 #MacysParade #ThanksGoku #DragonBall @macys pic.twitter.com/pglrkWUTDH

Macy's Thanksgiving Parade 2023 No Smooth Sailing for Monkey D. Luffy
With the anime adaptation of author Eiichiro Oda's manga, One Piece, preparing to kick off its 25th-anniversary celebration taking place this year during last year's 97th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Monkey D. Luffy was honored with an official balloon – but it wasn't all smooth sailing for the "King of the Pirates." By the time the balloon had reached the main media spotlight, a branch had deflated the brim of Luffy's hat before Luffy responded by appearing to take a swing at a traffic pole.
Here's a look at how Luffy faired in the beginning (with the mishap at the 1:21:15 mark), followed by a chance he got to course-correct a bit and get back on track – though it's pretty safe to say that his hate had seen better days:
