It has been a long time coming and a few weeks ago we were not even sure if it could be seen worldwide. But we already know that 'Dragon Ball Daima' premieres this October 11and we can also see it on three platforms: AnimeBox, Crunchyroll and Netflix.
In the rest of the world we still have to wait a few days, but in Japan there have already been some events where we could see the new 'Dragon Ball' anime and for now the fans are raving about it.

40th anniversary in style
How do they collect from @DbsHypemany Japanese fans are already sharing their opinions on the first episode of 'Dragon Ball Daima', and there are only good comments about the anime.
“The animation is incredible! Nakatsuru, your drawings are spectacular, I cried in the first 10 seconds! These are all my impressions from the first viewing, I really want to follow the broadcast next week,” said a fan praising the work by Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru, the character animation designer.
In general, Japanese fans have praised the animation and character design. And it is not surprising, because 'Dragon Ball Daima' has several veterans of the franchise such as Yoshitaka Yashima who have worked on Dragon Ball Super' and 'Dragon Ball Z' and know the saga inside out.
“It's been a while since (Yoshitaka) Yashima has been this involved as a member of an animation team. And as expected, character designers Nakatsuru and Kubota have nailed it. I can honestly say it's a divine anime,” claimed another user, with another fan adding. “All I can hear are the screams of joy during the viewing.”
The good rhythm and the humorand for many fans, the new anime has felt like a return to the origins of 'Dragon Ball'... Something that the trailers were already advancing and that also seems to be the hook to attract new fans.
“'Dragon Ball Daima' joins the fight! Episode 1 of the anime was hilarious. I couldn't believe it, I screamed so much. I'm really looking forward to the next chapter,” said another Japanese fan. Another fan claimed that “I felt like the characters from the original were coming back and talking for the first time in a long time. It was amazing.”
In a few days we will see if the first reactions exaggerate and if 'Dragon Ball Daima' lives up to expectations. This was the last anime he participated in. Akira Toriyama with an original story and character designs, so we certainly want to see what he had in store for us to celebrate Goku's 40th anniversary.
