Since August of this year there has been no update on the Danish dub of Dragon Ball Super, but it looks like that is about to change.
The dub, which began in October of last year has had 76 episodes so far, leaving Danmarks Radio (DR) with 55 episodes left to complete the entire series of Dragon Ball Super.
The first 27 episodes of Dragon Ball Super were uploaded to DR Ultra in one batch, and for episodes 28-76 they were released with 3 episodes weekly. Whether DR will take either approach to the rest of the series or if they will go in a new pattern remains to be seen, but nonetheless it is exciting for Dragon Ball fans in Denmark that this dub may be seen to its conclusion.
It is worth noting if this dub finishes Dragon Ball Super it will not only surpass the episode count of the Dragon Ball Z Danish dub (which stopped at episode 104) but it will be the first time a Dragon Ball TV anime has ever received a complete dub in the language.
Previously we reported that it seemed like a Hungarian dub of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero was coming to Canal+ Action on December 23rd.
Now according to a more recent article it is not only confirmed that the latest movie in the long running Dragon Ball franchise will indeed be dubbed in Hungarian but we know the cast and crew.
The cast is as follows:
And technical staff for the dub are as follows:
Or in English:
This means Goku will have the same voice actor as another iconic animated character albeit from a North American cartoon – Spongebob Squarepants. Additionally Piccolo is being played by Raditz’ voice actor.
It has not been said what English dub will be added, but it is worth noting there is a Canadian dub of Dragon Ball Kai that was produced by Ocean Studios between 2010 and 2014.
The Japanese version is reportedly not available on the platform, unsurprising since the only musical score available for that version is the Akihito Tokunaga score.
Whether the series was removed for work to be done on this HD upscale remains to be seen.
Other Dragon Ball series available on Hulu include Dragon Ball Kai, Dragon Ball Daima and Dragon Ball Super. Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT are no longer available.
According to a social media post from entertainment website Mentrum a Hungarian dub of Dragon Ball Super : Super Hero may be coming to the new linear channel Canal+ Action on December 23rd at 8:50pm.
Dragon Ball has most recently been available in the Hungarian language when Dragon Ball Super aired in 2018 on Viasat6, but this would mark the first time there has ever been a Hungarian dub of any of the Dragon Ball movies.
This will also not be the first time Canal + has premiered an exclusive dub of Dragon Ball Super : Super Hero as recently they showed a Czech dub of the movie.
It has been announced that Tatsuya Nagamine, the director of the first Dragon Ball Super movie Broly as well as Dragon Ball Super episodes 77-131 has passed away at the age of 53.
Nagamine worked on not just other TOEI anime like One Piece, Digimon and Precure, but also the short film Dr. Slump: Dr. Mashirito Abale-chan adapted from a one-shot by Akira Toriyama in 2007.
Dragon Ball Super’s 6-year run on UK TV should be coming to an end soon, as it has been announced Narrative Entertainment will be shutting down their linear channels and app next month.
Narrative Entertainment MD Paul Dunthorne commented:
“With commercial value across the UK kids’ TV market now just 4% of what it was 10 years ago, we’ve taken the decision to close our linear Pop channel at the end of the year. We understand the importance of offering high-quality kids’ TV, and we’ve done everything that we can to maintain Pop. But free-to-air channels for this audience are simply not commercially viable without public service broadcaster-style funding.
“We will retain our Pop presence on FAST channels in the UK on Freeview, Samsung, LG and other platforms, and internationally, as these continue to offer commercial opportunities.”
Sister channel Pop Max (which also aired Dragon Ball Super) left Freeview and Sky in December of last year, and January this year respectively. Their content was moved to Pop and Pop Player.
As it stands Dragon Ball Super remains on Pop from 7pm-8pm and 1:50am-2:38am every night. Whether it will be run until Pop’s last day broadcasting remains to be seen.
As Dragon Ball Super has lasted 6 years on Pop (although the channel removed it from their schedule at times) it is the instalment of the franchise which has been on UK TV for the longest.
Dragon Ball Z aired between 2000 and 2002 on Cartoon Network, 2002-2003 on CNX and 2003-2005 on Toonami, Dragon Ball GT ran on CNX and Toonami for the same years while original Dragon Ball only aired on Toonami and Dragon Ball Kai was shown on Kix between 2012 and 2015.
While the future of Dragon Ball on linear TV remains uncertain, although the series is still available on Crunchyroll, BBC iPlayer and home video releases from Manga UKand Crunchyroll.
Two episodes will be aired from 1:40pm-2:30pm and 8:25pm-9:15pm. The latter may be a rerun.
The dub broadcast will likely be the Digitalb dub from Albania and not the original Albanian dub from Kosovo as the latter is not known to have aired since the early 2000s on Kohavision.
