Last week actor Manolo Solo (real name Manuel Jesús Fernández Serrano) passed away at the age of 62.
The actor known for playing Beerus and #17 in the Castilian dub of Dragon Ball died on Thursday from cancer.
Solo won a Goya Award for Best Supporting Actor for the film Tarde para la ira.
The stage name Solo came from his childhood desire to be a rock star, in addition to his work as an actor he was a singer, bassist and guitarist of the rock band Los Relicarios.
Solo was also a theatre actor, performing in the documentary plays Ruz-Bárcenas (2013) and El Rey (2015), both of which were adapted to films.
Within Dragon Ball, Solo is also known for playing Tao Pai Pai, Silver Horn, Mr. Popo, Gregory, Zarbon (first voice), Jheese, Oob (Dragon Ball GT episodes 32 onward), Bon Para and Nappa in Dragon Ball Super: Broly.
With this week’s 3 new episodes of the Dragon Ball Super Danish dub the latest Nordic dub in the series draws closer to its conclusion with less than a month left to go.
With the addition of these 3 episodes the Danish dub of Dragon Ball Super has eclipsed the Danish dub of Dragon Ball Z, which Danmarks Radio (DR) also produced in the early 2000s, which had 104 episodes.
Assuming the current rate of new episodes being uploaded to the platform remains consistent Dragon Ball Super’s Danish dub should reach episode 130 on August 21, 2026 with the final episode premiering a week after.
Although with one episode left at that stage DR may decide to drop the last 4 episodes together rather than dropping 3 episodes in a single week.
It is worth noting that since 3 episodes have premiered on the platform every Friday since DR’s Season 3 began the next week should be episodes 104-106.
For comparison, 104 episodes of Dragon Ball Z were dubbed into Danish and aired on DR1, so by next week the Dragon Ball Super dub will exceed it in length.
