Since its premiere, fans have been speculating about the ending of Dragon Ball Daima . Rumors and leaks indicate that the series will have a shorter run compared to previous Dragon Ball . Now, an official statement from Hulu may have confirmed the date of the final episode: February 28, 2025.
According to the published schedule, this will be the 20th episode of the series, available with subtitles, while the dubbing remains exclusive to Crunchyroll . If the schedule remains the same, Dragon Ball Daima will be one of the shortest titles in the franchise.
To give you an idea, the original anime had 153 episodes, Dragon Ball Z had 291, Dragon Ball Super reached 131, and even GT Daima 's short duration suggests a more concise approach, with a clearly defined story from the beginning. The plot takes place in a specific period of the Dragon Ball Battle of Gods movie and the Super . As this phase precedes the introduction of Beerus, the narrative space was naturally limited.
The Future of Dragon Ball after Daima
Dragon Ball Daima brought important new developments to the franchise's universe, including previously unseen origins for the Kais, Namekians, and demons. Furthermore, it fulfilled the long-held wish of many fans by introducing Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta into the canon. Despite the predicted ending in episode 20, it's possible that this is just the season finale and that a new season is on the way.
Dragon Ball Super manga introduced new sagas after the Tournament of Power, paving the way for a continuation in the anime. Furthermore, new films may emerge, as happened with Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero in 2022. Given Sony's growing interest in the anime market, it's likely that new projects will be announced soon.
