Broadcast

"Broadcast" generally refers to the first-time terrestrial television screening of a work; in the modern era, this also refers to "web series" (or simulcasts thereof) which have a specific debut or premiere date.

Within the expanded works of Akira Toriyama, this includes domestic partners like Fuji TV, but also extends to dubbed productions with their own (often seasonal) broadcasts.

Structural Information

• Season: Television broadcasts of the Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball franchises in Japan did not follow segmented "season" designations, delineations, or breaks. FUNimation (later absorbed into the Crunchyroll branding) markets the Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, Dragon Ball Kai (as "Dragon Ball Z Kai"), and Dragon Ball Super television series with "season" distinctions for the home video market, but these "season" delineations are arbitrary, and do not line up with the company's own respective television broadcast seasons (where and if they do exist).
