  • Castilian Spanish dub of Dragon Ball Daima to premier on September 12th

    Over a year ago Spanish Dragon Ball fans were expressing their desire for a dub of Dragon Ball Daima in their region on X (formerly known as Twitter), particularly a dub from Dasara Producciones.

    Dasara Producciones previously provided the Castilian Spanish dub for both Dragon Ball Super and Dragon Ball Kai, which fans were satisfied with, so naturally there has been a desire for them to record more content.

    Sometime later RTVE director José Pablo López was asked about Dragon Ball Daima airing on the Clan network, and expressed interest in licensing it.

    Dragon Ball Daima has been available in Spain subbed on AnimeBox, Crunchyroll and Netflix but not yet in the native language.

    By the end of 2025 however it was announced at Manga Barcelona during the Selecta Vision conference that a Spanish dub would indeed be coming in 2026.

    More recently it was stated that Dragon Ball Daima would be airing on Clan very soon, but no debut date was confirmed, until now.

    In yesterday’s RTVE press release it was confirmed that Dragon Ball Daima would begin the following Saturday (September 12th) at 7:25pm.

    Under “New Releases” the press release says:

    “La energía de los fines de semana corre a cargo de Goku y compañía en ‘Dragon Ball DAIMA’. Una aventura inédita llena de sorpresas, artes marciales y ese humor inconfundible que une a generaciones enteras frente a la pantalla. Se podrá ver a partir del sábado 12 de septiembre a las 19:25 h.”

    In English this can be translated as:

    “The energy of the weekends is provided by Goku and company in ‘Dragon Ball DAIMA’. An unprecedented adventure full of surprises, martial arts and that unmistakable humor that unites entire generations in front of the screen. It can be seen from Saturday, September 12 at 7:25 p.m.”

  • Manolo Solo (Manuel Jesús Fernández Serrano) passes away

    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.

    Solo is the second actor that played #17 to pass away this year after Figueira Junior in the Brazilian Portuguese dub).

  • First two Dragon Ball movies coming to Anime Box in Spain

    Anime Box has just announced that the first two Dragon Ball movies will be coming to their platform in Spain.

    The Legend of Shenlong will hit the platform on July 20, followed by The Sleeping Princess in Devil’s Castle on July 27th.

    Anime Box’s parent company Selecta Vision have been the home of Dragon Ball on DVD and Blu-Ray for several years, but this addition will solidify them as the place to go for digital Dragon Ball content where Spanish fans can watch on all their devices too.

    For more news on Dragon Ball in Spain please keep an eye on Antonio Sánchez-Migallón Jiménez (known online as MrKaytos) who posts regularly on Instagram and X (formerly known as Twitter).

  • Spain to receive first ever Blu-Ray release of Dragon Ball GT

    20 years into the formats history and just in time for the 30th anniversary of the series it has just been announced that Dragon Ball GT will be receiving a Blu-Ray release.

    This upcoming release will be in Spain from distributor Selecta Vision, who have released a lot of Dragon Ball content on home video in the country, including recent Blu-Rays of not just the original Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z but also Dragon Ball Kai and the movies.

    No release date is yet known but Selecta Vision distributed posters at the Manga Barcelona 2025 event announcing this release.

    These posters were leaked by a user named Vercery on forums and a fan contacted Selecta Vision to verify the information.

    Furthermore a user named Bicho_86 supplied the image below, which went unnoticed by the Spanish fanbase for a few days following the announcement.

    Suffice to say Selecta Vision did confirm the news, so soon Spanish fans can look forward to completing their classic anime trilogies on a HD format.

  • Selecta Vision confirms European Spanish dub of Dragon Ball Daima set to be released in 2026

    It was just announced at the Selecta Vision conference at Manga Barcelona (the most important fair for the medium of manga in Spain) that Dragon Ball Daima will be released in 2026 with Spanish dubbing.

    Up until now the series has only been available in Spain in Japanese with Spanish subtitles, but this means that local fans can enjoy the series in their native tongue.

    This is fantastic news, not only for Spanish fans that wanted a local dub but also those that like to own Dragon Ball on physical media as Selecta Vision releases the series on DVD and Blu-Ray with the most recent addition being their releases of Dragon Ball Kai (another show with a long-awaited European Spanish dub).

  • Dragon Ball Daima coming to free-to-air TV in Spain?

    It has been reported that José Pablo López, director of RTVE, the national television and radio public broadcaster was asked about airing the latest anime series Dragon Ball Daima on the Clan network.

    The above comment directly translates to “We are in it”, implying interest in the product.

    Dragon Ball Daima is currently available across multiple platforms in Spain, namely AnimeBox, Crunchyroll and Netflix, but it is only available on all these services in Japanese audio with Spanish subtitles.

    A Spanish dub exists for the series, but only for the Latin American region, no European dub has been announced, although it may happen as all Dragon Ball series thus far has had a Latino dub and a Castilian dub. Even Dragon Ball Kai received a dub in Spain last year after over a decade of only a Latin American dub being in circulation.

    Dragon Ball Kai received its Castilian Spanish dub from Dasara Producciones, so they may be contracted to dub Dragon Ball Daima too.

    Dragon Ball Z can be seen in the region on Adult Swim and through Crunchyroll, but Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball GT are not on any Argentine TV channels, so both series will receive wider exposure, although they can still be seen weekends at 11am on Paraguayan channel La Tele.

    No date has been scheduled, but watch this space for further updates.
