What this record means
The record shows that the mark DRAGONBALL Z was registered on the Principal Register to Kabushiki Kaisha Shueisha, a corporation organized in Japan, but the registration was cancelled on Oct 7 2011 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The only listed goods are “magnetically encoded, pre‑paid telephone calling cards” and “pre‑recorded videotapes” in International Class 009, with a first use date of 1986 and a use‑in‑commerce date of Aug 1997; a similar name used on comparable electronic or media products would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “DRAGONBALL Z,” especially outside the narrow scope of those listed goods. No prosecution history or supplemental‑register activity appears, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a product in the same class, but the risk is limited to that specific category.
