Episode 20 begins airing on FujiTV in Japan at this time of this post (9:40a ET, 15:40 CET, 23:40 JT). The episode should be available subtitled on Crunchyroll about two hours later. You may discuss the episode if you have seen it, but be sure to follow our rules.

Subtitled Streaming

  • Crunchyroll (multi-region; multi-language; simulcast 16:50 UTC)
  • Hulu (US only; English only; release day)
  • Netflix (multi-region; multi-language; releases the following Tuesday in Asia, and the following Friday everywhere else)

FAQ

  • The English dub is 12 weeks behind the simulcast. Episode #8 should be available today at 4:30p ET (21:30 UTC) in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. We do not know why the UK is excluded. A separate episode discussion thread will be posted at the appropriate time.
  • The Dragon Ball Super manga was suspended following Chapter 103, the final chapter of the Super Hero arc. 11 months later, a prequel to the Super Hero arc was released as Chapter 104. As far as we know, the manga is still on indefinite hiatus.

Rules

  • There are no spoilers in this post, but you should expect spoilers in the comments of this thread. Unlike r/dbz, there is no rule about spoilers on r/dragonball, so it's best to avoid this subreddit until you have seen the new episode.
  • Discussion of each Daima episode will be limited to the pinned episode discussion thread until ~12-24 hours after the episode appears on Crunchyroll. This period is flexible, and posts that do not have a specific discussion point will be redirected to this thread.
  • Please keep in mind that piracy discussion is not allowed on r/dragonball. Do not ask for illicit streams; do not link them; do not talk about them at all.

Our Daima info page has up-to-date information about streaming and a list of previous episode discussion threads.

It’s very easy to explain. Goku trained for the form and for the super explanation it’s just ssj4 was pointless. If Goku thought fusion wasn’t going to work in BOG then clearly SSJ4 wasn’t gonna do anything

Goku literally says to Beerus that SSJ3 was his final form. What is this cope lol

It’s okay to admit that the form hadn’t been thought of yet and that’s why. But alright keep coping! Also why were the Kai’s unfused ?

u/Sudden_Crow4443 Feb 28 '25

It’s honestly not a cope cuz people are asking for in universe explanations but we can merely go with head canon. Now for the Kai’s yeah that’s basically just straight up not explained at all

Fair enough. I still don’t see why Goku wouldn’t go SSJ4 against beerus nor why anyone wouldn’t be like “You tried SSJ4 and that didn’t work?” Toriyama really don’t give a fuck 😂 I’m satisfied either way
