Dragon Ball now available on Prime Video (for Italian fans)

Post by Dragon Ball Ireland » Sun Nov 05, 2023 3:35 am

Good thing is it will be available to stream at no additional cost for Italian Prime members, until Crunchyroll takes over there I guess.

Nice they get both their local dub and the Japanese version (presumably with subtitles).

As part of the announcements of Dynit to the Lucca Comics & Games 2023the television series of DRAGON BALL And DRAGON BALL Z they are already available on Prime Video with the first seasons of episodes, visible at no further additional cost for all those who have an ad subscription Amazon Prime.

The episodes feature original Japanese audio as well as Italian dubbing broadcast on Italia 1, accompanied by the original Japanese theme songs. Dynit confirmed that even classic films will arrive on the streaming platform with the first Italian dubbing made for the home video version since then Dynamic Italy.

This forum is so over-dramatic that it's not even funny.

I wonder if I can gain access to it if I'd turn on my VPN to Italy...🤔

Update: It works! It works! I see they have about 35 episodes of DBZ and 28 episodes of DB available on Prime Video. Looks they're splitting the show in seasons. They also have Resurrection F and the Broly movie in Italian dub only.

Can't take screenshots off the phone directly from app for obvious reasons. The most I can do is take a photo from my phone and that's not gonna help much for determining which video masters are being used. It does appear to be 4:3 though.

It appears to be using the original Japanese intro and outro. No Italian theme song or end credit closers.

Those are good news, maybe it will be available for prime users in america, some day.

Personally I think both Crunchy roll and Prime could have it. As long as each of them pays their part to Toei, I don't see why there should be somethig as an exclusive streaming service for an anime, same as in the 90s every TV station could air DB.

Either way, I am sure it would be heavily censored.

There is a Crunchyroll channel on Amazon Prime Video. But that channel is a mess and is all over the place. They've even skipped episodes and therefore, is pretty incomplete. Some shows don't even have English dub track. Ressurection F isn't even using the correct English subtitles. But the biggest offense of all, none of the movies including Dragon Ball Super: Broly, Super Hero and even One Piece Red offer Dolby 5.1. My rear speakers remain inactive. After my 2 weeks of free trial is up, I am not continuing my subscription to Crunchyroll (on Prime Video). Hope I'm still eligible for the regular Crunchyroll app.
