Crunchyroll has announced that all 20 episodes of Dragon Ball Daima will be available dubbed in Brazilian Portuguese starting July 1st. The anime, which celebrates the 40th anniversary of Dragon Ball's creation, marks Goku's return in a new phase and reinforces the platform's commitment to the Brazilian audience.

In addition to making the production more accessible, the dubbing features a cast of voices already beloved by fans of the franchise. This initiative places Brazil among the main markets for the Dragon Ball universe and further strengthens the work's presence in the national scene.
