Released as part of the 40th anniversary celebrations for the original Dragon Ball manga, Dragon Ball Daima will star longtime Goku voice actor Masako Nozawa in the lead role.

The show will also feature a story and character designs shaped by Dragon Ball's original creator Akira Toriyama, who passed away earlier this year.

Dragon Ball Daima will premiere in Japan on 11th October, airing new episodes every Friday. The show's international release schedule hasn't been announced yet, but popular anime titles like Dragon Ball usually stream internationally soon after their Japanese release.

As you'd expect for such an iconic anime franchise, Dragon Ball Daima boasts an experienced creative team. Working with ideas from the late Akira Toriyama, the show is co-directed by longtime One Piece animator Aya Komaki and Dragon Ball Super animation supervisor Yoshitaka Yashima.
