With the latest batch of episodes released the Danish dub of Dragon Ball Super’s Universe 6 tournament arc is now complete.
As of today episodes 40-42 are now available to stream on the DR TV app.
Danmarks Radio has been releasing 3 new episodes a week since the Danish dub resumed on April 11th, so next week’s batch of episodes should be 43-45. The following week will likely be 46-48 (which will include the beginning of the Future Trunks arc) and so on.
Recently Dragon Ball Kai premiered for the first time in Israel with a new Hebrew dub.
Since the show’s debut on April 14th a total of 14 episodes have aired on Junior TV.
Now these 14 episodes are available on the streaming site Yes, which is the largest company in Israel that brings content to consumers through the internet.
Based on previous schedules Junior TV appears to be airing 4 new episodes a week. As such episodes 13-16 of Dragon Ball Kai should be airing this week.
If any more episodes are added to Yes we will report on it accordingly.
A promo has surfaced, which reveals that on May 5th (which is next Monday) original Dragon Ball will be returning to Mexican screens on the channel Azteca 7.
Azteca 7 is owned by TV Azteca, who originally brought the original series back on October 31, 2022 after it was not seen on open TV in 24 years (the broadcaster prior to this was Televisa’s Channel 5).
This is not the first time in years that the original Dragon Ball returned to linear TV in Latin America, as La Tele in Paraguay began airing it in 2023.
Once again Danmarks Radio has provided more dubbed episodes of Dragon Ball Super for their Danish audience.
As of today episodes 37-39 have been uploaded to the DR TV app, bringing the Danish dub close to the end of the Universe 6 tournament.
In the next week fans can expect episodes 40-42.
It’s official, the first 98 episodes of Dragon Ball Kai are once again available for Indians to watch.
Recently the portion of the show titled Dragon Ball Kai : The Final Chapters began a rerun on Cartoon Network, but not the earlier episodes.
The local Cartoon Network ran both the first 98 episodes of Kai and The Final Chapters between April 16th 2023 and November 12th of the same year.
Now fans have noted that Dragon Ball Kai has become available on Amazon’s streaming service Prime Video in India.
Like the Cartoon Network airings Dragon Ball Kai is available with five local dubs, but interestingly an English option is also available on Prime Video.
A Discovery subscription is needed, but it will mean the English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada dubs of Dragon Ball Kai will be brought to a wider Indian audience, particularly amongst fans that can now watch these dubs legally at any time.
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.
In that time fans in Brazil have had to wait for a dub in Portuguese, but now it turns out the wait is over.
The Brazillian Portuguese dub will premier on Adult Swim this Friday, April the 25th at 6pm.
According to Anime News Network the upcoming dub for Daima will be recorded at Unidub, which was where Dragon Ball Super and all the movies since Battle of Gods have been recorded.
Late last year it was revealed that there would be a Korean dub of Dragon Ball Daima.
Now the time has come, Korean fans can enjoy the latest instalment of the long running franchise originally created by the late, great Akira Toriyama.
Today (April 20th) the first two episodes of the new Dragon Ball series aired on Tooniverse between 8pm and 9pm.
It’s worth noting this is not the debut of the show on Tooniverse as the channel did begin airing the show on October 19th last year, albeit in Japanese with subtitles.
Luckily for fans that prefer to watch a show in its original language subtitled airings are still scheduled for 1am on Wednesday and Thursday this week.
Moreover the Daima dub features a dubbed version of the OP, which appears to be a rarity for some anime dubs these days. Traditionally English Dragon Ball dubs have had dubbed OPs, but that was not the case for Crunchyroll’s dub of Dragon Ball Daima.
This is one day later than expected, but nonetheless great news considering the long history Dragon Ball has had, especially with dubs in South Korea.
The second season of Danmarks Radio’s dub of Dragon Ball Super continues and it appears that a pattern is being established.
As with last week 3 new episodes have been uploaded to the DRTV app with the addition of episodes 31-33.
Further new episodes are scheduled for April 25th at 6am, and as of now it seems safe to assume the next batch will be 34-36, the week after 37-39 and so on.
In any case this is great news for Danish Dragon Ball fans who may have been waiting nearly 20 years for a dub in their language.
Ever since the release of Box 1 on November 30, 2022 Dragon Ball fans have been able to enjoy the best official release of the original series thus far, but it appears that the long hope for a Box 2 is coming to an end.
It has now been reported that numerous sources, including some from France have confirmed that AB Video will no longer be continuing their Blu-Ray releases of the original Dragon Ball.
This is unfortunate, as there had been various reports that gave fans hope that AB were not giving up on the second volume.
Not long after the first volume was released, according to Kanzenshuu veteran sangofe on episode 90 of the podcast Dragon Ball cast the cover art designer confirmed that he finished the design for Box 2.
Nonetheless for years the question about when this would be released remained unanswered, and as expected AB Video could not confirm anything that was yet to be scheduled for a release date.
In December 2023 the company confirmed on Twitter/X that there was “no information at the moment”.
Two months later, according to one comment on Youtube a source close to AB confirmed that the conception of Box 2 posed a problem because TOEI were very nitpicky.
This didn’t bode well for AB and TOEI’s relationship, despite the fact that the latter seemingly proudly displayed the former’s logo on the list of home video partners on their website.
Now it seems that the long awaited follow-up to the much loved Dragon Ball Blu-Ray set will not be coming because AB finally got fed up of dealing with TOEI and didn’t want to use upscales.
For years AB’s staff reiterated that they hadn’t given up, but if the recent revelation from industry sources is to be believed even they had their limits when it came to putting up with TOEI’s demands.
Contrary to popular belief the Blu-Rays were not cancelled because of AB’s decision to use the broadcast audio, but simply because they wanted to go above and beyond to make this release the best it could possibly be.
Indeed while AB were waiting for raw Dragon Box masters TOEI were insisting they use the masters done by another European distributor – Selecta Vision. AB did not want to settle for this option, as like many fans they were not a fan of this remaster, which was released in Spain.
It is truly a shame that yet another great home release has seemingly been cancelled, like Funimation’s level sets from 2011.
What this will mean for the future of French home releases for the 1986-1997 Dragon Ball TV anime remains uncertain.
Spanish distributor Selecta Vision has announced they will be releasing Dragon Ball Kai: The Final Chapters on their streaming service Anime Box on March 24th (Monday).
From this point a new episode will drop every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
The series will be available with Spanish, Catalan and Galician dubs.
The first part of Dragon Ball Kai begun on July 5th last year in Spain, on the same service.
Fans that like the retro feel of traditional TV also got to see Dragon Ball Kai on Comedy Central since Monday (March 17th) at 5:30pm.
As such this has been a great week, and year for fans of Dragon Ball Kai in Spain.
