Dragon Ball Super Beerus — Release Date & Where to Watch

Dragon Ball Super Beerus premieres in three days, and it marks the franchise’s first return to television in over six years. This isn’t a re-run with a filter slapped on it — Toei is rebuilding the opening arcs of Super from the ground up with new animation, reworked sound, and a tightened narrative. Nineteen episodes instead of the original’s sprawling run. And there’s a genuine catch on where to watch it, because Crunchyroll and Netflix are not dropping it on the same day. Here’s everything confirmed.

🐉 Dragon Ball Super Beerus — The Release Date

Straight to the facts. Dragon Ball Super: Beerus premieres in Japan on Sunday, October 11, 2026, at 11:15 PM JST on Fuji Television channels. (Siliconera)

For everyone outside Japan, this is where it gets important:

Crunchyroll gets Dragon Ball Super Beerus six days before Netflix. Crunchyroll streams from October 11 — the same day as the Japanese broadcast — while Netflix begins its weekly rollout on October 17. (FandomWire, What’s on Netflix)

So if you want it the moment it airs, Crunchyroll is your answer. If you’re a Netflix-only household, you’re waiting until the 17th and then following a weekly schedule.

On the English dub: it hasn’t been announced yet, but English subtitles will be available on day one. (Siliconera) Dub-only fans, sit tight.

🎟️ There’s a World Premiere Happening Right Now

If you’re at New York Comic Con, drop everything.

Episode 1 of Dragon Ball Super Beerus gets an advance world-premiere screening at NYCC on October 8 — today — at the Javits Center’s Empire Stage, with the panel scheduled for 12 PM ET. (FandomWire, Popverse)

That’s three days before anyone else on the planet sees it. NYCC runs October 8–11 at the Javits Center.

⚡ What Is “Enhanced,” Exactly?

This is the question everyone’s asking, and it deserves a straight answer.

Dragon Ball Super Beerus is not a simple re-release of the 2015 anime. Toei Animation is reworking the visuals, sound and narrative, with the series reconstructed rather than reissued episode by episode. (Outlook India)

The episode count tells the real story. The series is listed at 19 episodes total, versus the original Dragon Ball Super’s 131. (FandomWire)

Let’s be honest about why that matters. The original Super’s early episodes were infamous for poor animation quality (What’s on Netflix) — if you were watching in 2015, you remember the screenshots that went viral for all the wrong reasons. Compressing those arcs from 131 episodes to 19, with rebuilt animation, is Toei effectively saying: we know, and we’re fixing it.

Fewer episodes, no padding, modern animation. That’s a genuinely exciting proposition for anyone who loved Super’s story but winced at its execution.

🔥 Which Arcs Does It Cover?

Dragon Ball Super Beerus revisits three storylines:

1. God of Destruction Beerus Arc (Battle of Gods)
2. Resurrection ‘F’ Arc
3. Universe 6 Arc

Despite the name focusing on Beerus, the new “Super Surge” trailer includes plenty of footage from the Resurrection F arc and even into the Universe 6 Tournament arc that follows — suggesting Toei may be aiming to refresh the entire Dragon Ball Super anime over time. (Popverse)

That’s the subtext worth watching. If Beerus performs, there’s a lot more Super left to rebuild — the Future Trunks arc and the Tournament of Power both sitting there waiting.

🎙️ Cast and Theme Songs

The legends are back where they belong. Masako Nozawa voices Goku and Koichi Yamadera voices Beerus. (Siliconera)

Nozawa has voiced Goku since 1986. Forty years. There is no Dragon Ball without her, and her return is non-negotiable comfort for longtime fans.

Both the opening and ending theme songs have been revealed alongside the launch announcement. (Siliconera)

🚌 Toei Is Going Enormous on Marketing

Here’s how you know Toei takes this seriously. There’s a full physical ad campaign rolling out:

• Japan — branded trucks driving through Fukuoka, Nagoya, Osaka, Sapporo and Tokyo from October 5–11, plus train station ads
• United States — branded buses in Los Angeles and New York City

Studios don’t buy bus wraps in two American cities for a casual re-release. This is a flagship relaunch.

🎂 Why Now? The 40th Anniversary

The timing isn’t accidental. Earlier in 2026, the Dragon Ball Genkidamatsuri celebrations marked the 40th anniversary of the franchise created by Akira Toriyama. (LevelUp)

Dragon Ball Super Beerus is the anniversary year’s centerpiece — and the franchise’s first television anime in more than six years. (LevelUp)

Forty years since Toriyama started it. Goku’s still here. So is Nozawa. Some things don’t need fixing — but the animation around them sure did.

📺 Quick Answer: Where Should You Watch?

Crunchyroll is the move if you’re spoiler-averse — six days is a long time on the internet when Goku’s involved.

Three days out. Let’s see what they’ve built. 🐉
