  • Korean dub of Dragon Ball Daima has begun

    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.

  • Dragon Ball Daima Korean dub set to begin airing on Tooniverse from April 19th

    In December Kanzenshuu veteran wjbraden reported news of a Korean dub of Dragon Ball Daima being set to premier.

    The announcement of a Korean dub was made at the AGF 2024 booth, and it appeared that the show was being imported from SMG Holdings rather than Daewon Media who aired the recent original Dragon Ball redub.

    Now Tooniverse has revealed a debut date for the Korean dub – April 19th.

    This is not the first time Tooniverse has aired Dragon Ball Daima, as the show began its broadcast in October in Japanese with local subtitles, but now Koreans will be able to enjoy the show in their native language.

    The AGF (Anime X Game Festival) is a huge event held in December that attracts thousands of fans of not just anime and games but also cartoons, light Nobel and YouTubers.

  • Anibox in South Korea to air “Dragon Ball Specials”

    Going by titles it appears the South Korean channel will be rerunning episodes from the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai as well as the History of Trunks TV special.

    Evidently episodes of the TV series are being broadcast in hour-long slots under the “Dragon Ball Special – The World’s Best Budokai” banner.

    The second Dragon Ball Z TV Special 絶望への反抗!! 残された超戦士・悟飯とトランクス (Defiance in the Face of Despair!! The Remaining Super-Warriors: Gohan and Trunks) is being aired under its localized title Counterattack on Despair! The Remaining Super Warriors on Christmas day.

  • Piccolo Junior arc to air on AniBox tomorrow

    A little less than two months ago the Piccolo Daimaō arc began airing with its new Korean dub on AniBox.

    Recent scheduling updates have confirmed the premier of episode 123 with the new dub as airing tomorrow (October 5th), which will mark the beginning of the Piccolo Junior or 23rd Tenkaichi Budōkai arc of original Dragon Ball.

    Dragon Ball originally premiered in South Korea in the 1980s with the original Korean dub. It also aired on Champ TV.

    The original series hasn’t aired for a long time before this rerun with the new dub however.

  • Tooniverse to begin airing Dragon Ball Daima with subs in South Korea on October 19th

    It has been confirmed that Dragon Ball Daima will begin airing on Tooniverse in South Korea from October 19th at 10pm.

    Tooniverse will become the second traditional TV channel to air Dragon Ball Daima, after Mangas airs it in France four days prior, interestingly both cases will be a broadcast of the Japanese version with local subs, rather than a dub.

    This is not the first time a Dragon Ball series has been shown on Tooniverse, as they aired the Champ TV dub up until the Freeza arc in Dragon Ball Z before begin airing their own dub from Garlic Junior onward.

    Whether Tooniverse will create their own dub of Dragon Ball Daima remains to be seen.

    Korean fans wanting their fix of classic Dragon Ball content can still watch the original series on AniBox, which airs four episodes every Sunday from 8pm-10pm.
