Let's say we get a new Dragon Ball anime series, except this time, it will not be on Fuji TV or any Japanese TV network. Instead, it would be available exclusively on streaming services worldwide, including in Japan. Would you like something like that to happen for future Dragon Ball anime shows?

Yeah, I heard it was originally going to be a web anime series like SDBH. But since the July 2024 trailer came out, Daima was revealed to be a TV anime.

I don't see why it wouldn't work, Daima is already a streaming exclusive outside Japan (Fuji TV) and France (Mangas).
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula :thumbup:
