  • Argentine channel Pakapaka set to begin airing all three classic Dragon Ball TV series in July

    A Latin American news site for anime has announced that in July the channel Pakapaka will begin airing Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball July in Argentina.

    The series are being brought to the channel alongside other TOEI Animation titles like World Trigger and Dragon Quest: Adventure of Dai.

    Dragon Ball Z can be seen in the region on Adult Swim and through Crunchyroll, but Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball GT are not on any Argentine TV channels, so both series will receive wider exposure, although they can still be seen weekends at 11am on Paraguayan channel La Tele.

    Additionally the channel will also air a youth program with streaming aesthetics titled “Gen Z” that will be dedicated to Dragon Ball fans.

    No date has been scheduled, but watch this space for further updates.

  • Brazillian Portuguese dub of Dragon Ball Daima to begin on April 25th

    It has been a month to the day that the Latin American Spanish dub of Dragon Ball Daima made its debut on the local version of Adult Swim.

  • Latin American dub of Dragon Ball Daima coming

    Latin American fans waiting for a local dub of Dragon Ball Daima may not have much longer to wait.

    A Paraguayan Youtuber has broke the news and Richard Brust revealed in a podcast that a dub is coming.

    News about a release date has yet to be confirmed, although Adult Swim Latin America has teased that the series may be coming so don’t be surprised if that’s where the series will drop.

    With Warner Channel’s Wanimé block coming to an end its looking like Adult Swim is going to become the home for Dragon Ball on traditional TV in Latin America, just as it has in North America for the last 10 years.

  • Warner Channel’s block Wanimé to cease airing from January 1, 2025 with their final broadcast of Dragon Ball Z

    It has been reported that from January 1, 2025 with one final airing of Dragon Ball Z episodes 197 and 198 Warner Channel’s block Wanimé will close down.

    This comes 8 months after the block was removed in Brazil, but now it appears the remainder of Latin America will follow.

    Various reasons have been cited for the clock’s closure, such as Warner Channel’s parent company WBD already having a definitive home for broadcasting anime with Adult Swim and the third party anime catalog on HBO Max not expanding much this year.

    Wanimé, which began on April 11, 2022 replaced the Toonami Powered by Crunchyroll block on the regional Cartoon Network, and has aired not just Dragon Ball Z and its films, but also Dragon Ball Kai and Dragon Ball Super.

    It is not known when the new TV anime Dragon Ball Daima will begin broadcasting in Latin America, although Adult Swim has teased it recently, so it may be coming soon.

  • Adult Swim Latin America teases Dragon Ball Daima

    Adult Swim Latin America has recently tweeted about Dragon Ball Daima.

    https://twitter.com/latamadultswim/status/1864056547791323436

    The above can be translated as “If there’s a dog, there’s a like. #AdultSwim in the house”, so while it’s not confirmation it does lend credibility to Dragon Ball Daima coming to their channel.

    Although it is not listed for January schedules it has been reported Adult Swim will be airing a programme listed under the pseudonym ” AS PREMIERE”.

    If “AS PREMIERE” is the premiere of Dragon Ball Daima , fans can expect it on Monday, January 20 at 21:09 ARG-CHI | 19:09 COL-PER.

    It should be noted it is not known whether a Latin American Spanish or Portuguese dub is in production. There were reports that Daniel Castañeda (TOEI’s licensing director for the region) said in an interview with Produ “We go into dubbing for worldwide release in October 2024″ but the original source is no longer live and we are not aware of Daniel Castañeda commenting on it since.

    As was the case when Stephanie Nadolny reprising her role as Goku in the English dub this could be another case of where there’s smoke there’s fire.

    Nonetheless Dragon Ball has always been a monstrous success in Latin America so undoubtedly the arrival of Akira Toriyama’s final work to traditional TV will be highly anticipated should this be indeed confirmed.
