Dragon Ball Daima release date: what time are episodes 1 and 2 on Netflix and Crunchyroll?
Dragon Ball Daima episode 2 releases on Crunchyroll on October 18 at 10:00 AM Pacific/1:00 PM Eastern.
The premiere episode will then hit Netflix "globally" October 18, though the times haven't yet been confirmed for that platform and it's currently unknown if the drop will include the first two episodes or just one. If we had to wager a guess, we imagine it will be available from 3:00 AM Eastern/8:00 AM BST in the UK, in line with other Netflix releases.
The first three episodes of the English dub will also be available for a limited time only in cinemas from November 10-12. Presumably, new episodes will follow for the English dub in November.

How many episodes of Dragon Ball Daima are there?
Given the nature of anime, there's unlikely to be an official episode count for Dragon Ball Daima until long into the show's run. Still, there are whispers that the series will run for 20 episodes, which is a significant drop-off from other Dragon Ball shows such as Dragon Ball Z (291 episodes) and the more recent Dragon Ball Super (131 episodes).
