Dragon Ball Super Beerus Premiere Date and Streaming Times Confirmed, English Dub Coming Soon

Published 17 September 2026. Words like "tonight" or "next week" refer to that date.

Dragon Ball Super Beerus, the upcoming enhanced edition covering the Battle of Gods, Revival of F, and Champa arcs under one title, now has a confirmed broadcast date, a streaming rollout, and strong signs that an English dub announcement is close. A new two page spread in V Jump lays out the details, and I want to break down exactly what it says and what it means for when and where you can watch.

Before getting into the schedule, it is worth noting that Akira Toriyama's name is plastered across the V Jump spread even though he is no longer with us. As I have said for years, that is deliberate. "Akira Toriyama's name means respect and it sells in Japan," and Toei is going to keep using it on everything they can.

Dragon Ball Super Beerus Premiered October 11 on Fuji TV

As reported earlier with the trailer a couple weeks ago, Dragon Ball Super Beerus starts on October 11 at 23:15 Japan time, which is 11:15 p.m. there and roughly 10:15 a.m. US Eastern time. Everyone should check their own time zone rather than rely on a single conversion, since the exact local time will vary depending on where you live.

The series will air on Fuji TV first, the same broadcaster that carried Dragon Ball Daima. Episodes are expected to run at typical anime length, somewhere around 23 to 30 minutes including commercials.

Amazon Prime Japan and U-NEXT Get It First, But Only in Japan

About 15 minutes after the broadcast ends, the episode becomes available on Amazon Prime Video in HD and on the U-NEXT streaming platform. This is specifically Amazon Prime Japan, not any other regional Prime storefront. The only way to actually watch it there if you are outside Japan is to use a VPN and switch your account over to Japan before loading Amazon. It will not be available on Prime Video in North America 15 minutes after airing, and I do not know what other markets, if any, might get it that fast.

Crunchyroll Follows 45 Minutes to an Hour and a Half Later, Just Like Daima

Roughly 45 minutes to an hour and a half after the Japanese broadcast, sometimes a little more or a little less depending on the day, subtitled episodes go up on Crunchyroll. That mirrors how Dragon Ball Daima was handled and how the original Dragon Ball Super run worked during its first broadcast.

Page Two Recaps Beerus as a Force Beyond Good and Evil

The second page of the V Jump spread is mostly recap text rather than new information. It describes Beerus as an existence that transcends good and evil, with the threat of Beerus approaching. The idea being reinforced is that Beerus is a neutral force of nature rather than a straightforward villain, which anyone who has already seen the three prior versions of this story already knows.

The text runs through the past threats Goku has faced, including Piccolo, Vegeta, Frieza, Cell, and Majin Buu, framing all of them as crises that Goku managed to avert. It then contrasts that with Beerus, a God of Destruction described as a different kind of entity from anything Goku has fought before, who is searching for the Super Saiyan God, the Saiyan god that could rival him. Vertical text on the page reiterates that the Super Saiyan God is the only existence that could possibly stand up to him.

Lower on the page, the spread also confirms the opening and ending theme songs that were already revealed in the trailer. There is a QR code as well, but scanning it simply pulls up that same trailer rather than anything new.

The English Dub Is Coming, and an Announcement Could Land Any Day

On the question everyone keeps asking, an English dub of Dragon Ball Super Beerus is coming, and I expect an announcement along with a dub trailer any day now. Jason Douglas is expected back as Beerus and Ian Sinclair as Whis, and I am confident the rest of the returning cast will be back as well.

Simuldub Is Uncertain, But I Don't Expect the Long Delay the Original Super Dub Had

I do not believe this will be a simuldub, even though I hope it is. "I don't believe it's going to be simo dubbed. I hope that it is. I hope that it is. I don't think it will be. I think the dub's going to be behind." My expectation is that it will not lag as far behind as Daima did, and certainly nowhere near as far behind as the original Super dub was.

To put that original delay in perspective, Dragon Ball Super Broly released nine months after the Super anime finished airing in Japan, and the English dub still had not caught up by then. The Ultra Instinct Goku versus Jiren finale, including the fight involving Frieza and Android 17, did not come out in English until after Broly had already released. I think the wait this time will land closer to how Daima was handled, ideally as a simuldub and sooner rather than later, though that remains my expectation rather than a confirmed plan.

Hulu Is Possible, Netflix Is Unknown, and Other Regions Are Still Uncertain

Once the dub exists, it will eventually reach Crunchyroll as well. It may also end up on Hulu, since Dragon Ball already has an existing deal there, meaning it could be watched through the Disney Plus, ESPN, Hulu bundle. Just like with Daima, Toei appears to be trying to get Dragon Ball Super Beerus onto as many streaming platforms as possible.

I do not know anything about Netflix at this point. The only things I can say for certain are Prime Japan and Crunchyroll for most people who have access to it. For anyone in Australia or the UK who does not want to go through a VPN, that detail is still unclear, and I will share an update once I know more.
