I'm hoping every country in the world will at least get a sub in their languages or a voiceover.

Maybe Daima will get dubbed in some languages we've never heard Dragon Ball in like the African languages. Norwegian and Swedish are needed too as they only ever got movies and specials retranslated from the Big Green dubs. Hell TOEI should license Daima out to TG4 so we can get an Irish dub, they even have a channel specifically for kids content - Cúla4, which I have as it's a free channel.

I think India will get Daima for sure, anime is growing there, and all of Kai and Super were dubbed in five languages (Handi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada) in less than 2 years thanks to the amazing work of Ankur Javeri.

Poland certainly, as their just coming off dubbing both series themselves and will want their slice of the new hotness cake.

Greece is definitely a given considering their long history with this franchise.
Yeah but dubs aren't popular in Scandinavia.

A few hours ago, we reported on the cessation of Nickelodeon's operation from all subscription platforms, on December 31. As of the next day, on January 1, the children's channel changes its name and continues on terrestrial digital television as Keedoo. As stated in the relevant announcement on the television station's social media, its program will include "new series and films", without specific mention of whether the productions of the international media giant will continue to be broadcast.

This move marks the end of Nickelodeon -as a name, at least- from Greek television after 15 years.
It's a pity to know that Paramount has decided to pull the plug of another international Nickelodeon channel but I suppose they did it because of the high costs of operation and low viewership like in Brazil. Curiously enough, Nickelodeon Brazil will shut down in the same date as Greece.

Meanwhile, in the rest of LatAm, we'll still have Nickelodeon. At least, for now.
A little too late but yeah, I've been officially active in Kanzenshuu for ten years :)

RIP Nickelodeon Greece, by the looks of things this new Keedoo channel, like Moochi in the UK will be focusing on very young audiences so probably unlikely we'll see the Greek dub of Super finished or them licensing more Dragon Ball content.

Which is a shame, although I guess the Scandinavian dubs of the movies and specials not being great didn't help. At least it sounds like DR are going to finish Super, and if it's done well enough for them maybe they will dub more Dragon Ball in Danish.

Yeah, Nickelodeon is still around in the UK and Ireland, but I don't think they've aired anime in years. I remember when they used to air Yu-Gi-Oh and Cardcaptors, but like Cartoon Network I guess they decided the cost of third party content was too much long term and wanted to focus their resources on original programming.
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:

Keedoo, the channel that will replace Nickelodeon on terrestrial digital television starting tomorrow, will have a much smaller and different schedule, at least initially. According to Digea's TV guide, Keedoo will only play 8 children's programs every 4 hours, and in exactly the same order, of which at least three continue after Nickelodeon. With popular productions of the company such as "SpongeBob SquarePants", "Dora the Explorer", teen series, etc., absent.

Here is Keedoo's schedule from the turn of the year until the end of the New Year:

00.00 "LOL Surprise"
00.30 "Gormiti New Era"
01.00 "Akedo / Mixies"
01.30 "Gorm Gormiti"
02.00 "Sylvanian Families"
02.30 "Trotties"
03.00 "Chi Chi Love"
03.30 "Gormiti"

I don't really think Paramount will completely remove them of UK and Ireland but I DO think they will eventually replace them with the Global version of Nickelodeon, that same one that LatAm has been using since 2023.

Yup, the true Latin American version of Nickelodeon I've grew up with, unfortunately, does no longer exist. It was replaced by a pathetic automated broadcast.

Regarding anime airing on Nickelodeon, Yu-Gi-Oh! was an interesting experiment for Nickelodeon Latin America.

For a international version of Nickelodeon that has never aired any anime series, it surprisingly worked pretty well.
There were even times where Duel Monsters outperformed SpongeBob SquarePants in ratings and such huge success guaranteed the eventual airing of Capsule Monsters and GX.

Unfortunately, this experiment wasn't apparently meant to last forever and thus, 5D's wasn't picked up by Nickelodeon LatAm (Ironically, 5D's has recently been added to Paramount owned Pluto TV.)

Hopefully Pluto TV gets more expansion in Europe. It's really a pretty good streaming service. Not to mention that it's free and you don't even have to log in to use it.

Here in LatAm, besides Paramount content, they have several anime channels where they air Yu-Gi-Oh!, Inuyasha and most recently, Pokémon. Pluto TV could be a perfect home for Dragon Ball in Greece.

By the way, happy new year for both of you. I wish for a 2026 full of new dubs to look for.

There is plenty of room for new cartoons and animes to be included in this new Keedoo channel, although I don't care that much anymore if new Dragon Ball content comes to Greece. Happy new year to you too.
