Crunchyroll has announced that the upcoming Dragon Ball Daima anime series will begin streaming on the platform from October 11. The show will be available in the United States, Canada, Latin America (Brazil included), Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India, and Southeast Asia.
Dragon Ball Daima is a 40th anniversary project for the Dragon Ball franchise that sees Goku and his friends being transformed into their kid forms. Dragon Ball‘s late creator Akira Toriyama contributed its story and character design drafts.
Dragon Ball started as a Shueisha-published manga in 1984. More recent Dragon Ball anime have been part of the Dragon Ball Super series, which takes place after Majin Buu’s defeat in Dragon Ball Z (1989-1996). Dragon Ball Daima is the first non-Super anime since Dragon Ball Super began in 2015.
