As reported yesterday on Kanzenshuu after well over a decade Dragon Ball Kai has finally been released in the Netherlands on the streaming service GoAnime.
Unfortunately there is a cache, as my source has asked a fan in the Netherlands, and despite GoAnime previously stating their contract included Dutch audio there is no Dutch dub.
As the company also confirmed no English dub that means Dragon Ball Kai is only available in the Netherlands in Japanese with Dutch subs.
Whether a Dutch dub will be released or one of the English dubs of Kai will be added at a later stage remains to be seen.
This will also mark the second time a Danish company has licensed any of the TV anime, as Dragon Ball Z was the only series to be shown prior to Super.
Luckily sangofe was also told if numbers were good for Dragon Ball Super, Danmarks Radio would buy more Dragon Ball content.
As such this could be a great opportunity for a revival of the franchise in the Scandinavian territory.
Earlier this year, following the death of series creator Akira Toriyama it was announced that the Danish public service broadcaster Danmarks Radio was going to air Dragon Ball Super in the fall.
At the time it was not known whether the series would be airing subtitled or dubbed, however shortly after enquiries were made and the channel confirmed they would indeed be dubbing Dragon Ball Super in Danish.
This will not be the first time Dragon Ball Super was legally available in Denmark, as it was simulcast on Daisuki in 2016, but this will mark the debut of the Danish dub.
For months there was no word on when exactly the anime would be making its return to Denmark, that all changed as just today it has been revealed Dragon Ball Super will begin airing this week.
Should there be any more updates on Italy we will be sure to announce it.
As it stands all these releases in Italy will be subbed, although it is likely a dub will come at some point as all Dragon Ball content with the exception of Kai have been dubbed in Italy since the franchise’s introduction in 1989.
Should there be any updates on a dub or more exciting news for Italian fans we will be sure to announce it.
It is official, Dragon Ball Daima, the latest instalment in the long running Dragon Ball anime series, and the last work of late creator Akira Toriyama is coming to TV.
Mediawan Thematics-owned channel Mangas has just announced the new anime series will be coming to their channel October 15th at 10:50pm.

Mangas has a long history with the franchise. The original Dragon Ball aired on a previous incarnation of the channel named AB Cartoons in 1996, Mangas itself featured the French premier of Dragon Ball GT (the previous series would debut on TF1’s Club Dorothée block) and the channel still broadcasts the older series from time to time.
France was also notably the second international territory to receive the anime after Hong Kong in 1989 and as such generations of fans have grown up with Dragon Ball and still love it to this day.
Thanks goes to my buddy sangofe for noticing this, and for his continued work in bringing all kinds of great Dragon Ball news to all of us.
Thanks to the reliable Spanish Dragon Ball expert and Derek Padula’s translator Antonio Kaytos for reporting on this, a new edition of the manga is coming, and it is a gorgeous piece for collectors.
Each volume will cover a different story arc in addition to being the same size as Weekly Shonen Jump magazine and containing more pages than the tankoubon and kanzenban releases.
The Legends release of the manga will feature as part of the novelties during the Barcelona Manga Fair and three boxes are expected to be released over the run of this new manga edition.
TOEI continues to ramp up the releases for Dragon Ball Daima across Europe.
Following on from the announcements of France and Germany on the ADN streaming service as well as Italy, now Spain joins that list of European countries, which will have a legal means of watching Daima.
Selecta Vision has announced the series will be coming to their streaming platform Anime Box on October 11th, meaning Spanish fans can enjoy the series the same date it premiers on Fuji TV in Japan.
Like the other aforementioned European countries, no dub is announced as of yet, but it should be expected to arrive within the next couple of months.
Italian fans who have been waiting for Dragon Ball Daima to be licensed out to them don’t have much longer to wait, as it is now confirmed the series will debut in November.
Much like Tokyo Big Sight in Dragon Ball’s native country of Japan, Italian fans of the series will have a chance to get a glimpse of Daima before the remainder of the series, although instead of the first episode it will be the first 3 episodes that premier similar the US.
However no Italian dub is set for release, as of this point, but that can be expected at a later stage, as all the Dragon Ball series thus far, with the exception of Kai (which was ruled out because it was a recut of Dragon Ball Z) have been dubbed in Italian.
Previously we reported, based on anecdotal accounts Dragon Ball Super was airing with two new episodes every weekday on Panda Kids in Portugal and had reached the Future Trunks arc.
Now it appears that the channel is rerunning previously premiered episodes assuming the people who informed the source I spoke to were correct.
