The wait is finally over, as Crunchyroll have today added the English Dubbed version of Dragon Ball Super to its streaming platform for UK subscribers.
Dragon Ball Super has been available to stream on Crunchyroll for quite some time, but it was only available to watch in subtitled form. Those wanting to watch in English would either have to purchase the Blu-Ray (or DVDs) released by Manga Entertainment or (more recently) watch the series on POP! or stream the series BBC iPlayer; both of which were edited for children’s TV. As a reminder Dragon Ball Super is a sequel series to Dragon Ball Z and takes place after the events of Episode 288.
Dragon Ball Super: After 18 years, we have the newest Dragon Ball story from creator Akira Toriyama. With Majin Buu defeated, Goku has taken a completely new role as…a radish farmer?! With Earth at peace, our heroes have settled into normal lives. But they can’t get too comfortable. Far away, the powerful God of Destruction, Beerus, awakens to a prophecy revealing his demise at the hands of an even more formidable being. When his search for the Saiyan God brings him to Earth, can Goku and his friends take on their strongest foe yet?
While it is exciting news to see the English Dub of Dragon Ball Super become available for Crunchyroll subscribers in the UK it is also does come with some disappointing news, as Dragon Ball Z Kai (the true to the manga version of Dragon Ball Z) has not yet been added to the streaming platform.
Dragon Ball Z Kai was previously announced to become available for streaming (in the UK) today, but at the time of writing has yet to do so. At least in the meantime we can enjoy Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT and Dragon Ball Super in both English and Japanese (with English subtitles) on Crunchyroll in the UK.
