Yesterday (June 19th) LostTimeLord reported on the Kanzenshuu forums that the episodes of Dragon Ball Kai previously omitted from Disney+ in the UK have been added to the platform.
The two Dragon Ball Super movies, titled Broly and Super Hero were also added on the same day.
The Dragon Ball Super TV series was also added to Disney+ soon after Kai, so there is a lot of Dragon Ball content on the service for fans to enjoy.
Yesterday Disney+ announced on Facebook and Instagram that Dragon Ball Super was now streaming in the UK and Ireland.
This is not the first time that a Dragon Ball series has been on the platform as Dragon Ball Kai was added a few weeks ago.
Additionally both series have been available to stream on Crunchyroll and were released on DVD and Blu-Ray by the company formerly known as Manga UK (now Crunchyroll in the UK and Ireland).
There have been several local releases of Dragon Ball Super on both physical formats, that includes the Parts and two Complete Series by Manga UK in addition to steelbooks and a more recent Complete Series by Crunchyroll with their branding.
Dragon Ball Kai and Dragon Ball Super also aired on national TV through the channels Kix and Pop respectively. The latter is now airing on GREAT! Action.
Dragon Ball Super’s addition to Disney+ will no doubt bring the series to a much wider audience.
A remake of Dragon Ball Super is scheduled for release later this year, but its international releases are not yet known.
The UK is now following in the footsteps of Canada with the release of Dragon Ball Kai on Disney+.
As of today the first 2 seasons are available to stream on the platform with English dub option and the Japanese credits for the OP and ED.
Unsurprisingly it is the Funimation dub that has been added, and not the never released Ocean dub.
This is not the first time Dragon Ball Kai has been on a streaming service in the UK, as it was previously added to Crunchyroll.
The series also aired on Kix between 2012 and 2015, and was released on DVD and Blu-Ray by Manga UK in 2015, albeit with the original Kenji Yamamoto score on the DVDs for episodes 1-13 and 27-39 and episodes 1-39 on the Blu-Rays.
Every other release of Dragon Ball Kai in the UK has used the replacement Shunsuke Kikuchi score due to the plagiarism scandal that occurred in 2011.
After 6 and a half years with a few breaks in between Dragon Ball Super will cease to air on traditional TV in the UK.
According to today’s listings on tvguide.co.uk the channel Pop, which has aired Dragon Ball Super since 2019 will close down in the early hours of New Years Day.
