Dragon Ball Daima Episode Release Schedule

While not confirmed, we imagine the rest of Dragon Ball Daima Season 1 will follow a similar release schedule to the first episode. That means the day a new episode airs (and streams on Crunchyroll), the previous episode arrives on Netflix.

We’ll be sure to update this schedule with more concrete details about the episode count or if any airing interruptions arise.
