DRAGON BALL
Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows a live Principal Register registration for “DRAGON BALL” owned by Kabushiki Kaisha Shueisha, covering downloadable electronic comic books (Class 009), printed comic books (Class 016) and online non‑downloadable digital publications, storyline information and entertainment media production services (Class 041); a similar name used for any of those types of comics or related digital entertainment would raise the closest record‑based concern. The registration does not give Shueisha control over every possible use of the words “dragon ball” in unrelated fields. The most recent meaningful event is the May 14 2024 notice that the registration and its first ten‑year renewal under Sections 8 and 9 have been accepted. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a mark in the comic‑book or digital‑entertainment space.
