  • Crunchyroll announces Dragon Ball Daima simulcast for North America, Oceania, Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, South Africa and Latin America

    It is official, Dragon Ball Daima is set to be rolled out to the first batch of international territories, and on the same date it premiers on Fuji TV.

    Crunchyroll have announced on October 11th they will be streaming Daima in Japanese with English, Spanish and Portuguese subtitles. Territories announced so far include North America, Central America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, but expect more to be rolled out very soon.

    Fans will remember the long-awaited Dragon Ball Super simulcast, which TOEI and Crunchyroll began over a year after Super began airing on Fuji TV. Interestingly the initial territories included in Super’s simulcast mirror this Daima simulcast with the addition of the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia. Around the same time Daisuki was simulcasting Super to select European countries like the UK, Ireland, Germany and the Nordic regions, so it’s not out of the question a similar initiative may be in the works for Daima.

    Indeed several European license holders of the past like Manga UK and KAZÉ have been absorbed into Crunchyroll, and Crunchyroll streams the entire series to the British Isles as well as France. The company is now a force to be reckoned with in the anime industry, monopolizing like none have done before. It would certainly make sense for Crunchyroll to expand the simulcast wider, as they will certainly have the license for many European countries, without a doubt Britain and Ireland being one such case.

    No word on the production of any dubs to serve the territories receiving Daima’s simulcast, but it is very likely companies like Crunchyroll have began working on them, so expect to hear news on them within the next year, if not the next few months or weeks.
