Crunchyroll began streaming Dragon Ball Daima in India on October 11, the same day the anime premiered in Japan. Netflix then began streaming it in India on October 16.
The anime premiered on a new anime programming block on Fuji TV on October 11. The first episode had a runtime 10 minutes longer than normal.
Dragon Ball Daima had its world premiere at a special "Dragon Ball Daimatsuri" (with "Daimatsuri" combining the words "Daima" and matsuri, which means festival) event on October 6 at Tokyo Big Sight.
Yoshitaka Yashima (animation director on Dragon Ball Super, Digimon franchise) and Aya Komaki (One Piece series director, episode director on Marie & Gali) are serving as series directors, Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru (Dragon Ball Z, Digimon franchise) is adapting the late Akira Toriyama's character designs for animation, and Yuuko Kakihara (Digimon Adventure tri. films, 2022 Urusei Yatsura, Cells at Work!) is supervising and writing the series scripts. Franchise creator Akira Toriyama is credited for the new anime's story and character designs.
In the series, Goku, Vegeta, Bulma and other characters throughout the series become younger than usual. However, this is different from a similar plotline in the Dragon Ball GT anime, in which Goku reverts back into a kid after the end of the original series. Although the title "Daima" does not mean anything, the kanji could be interpreted as "Evil" in English.
The Dragon Ball Super television anime series premiered in July 2015 and aired for 131 episodes until March 2018. Cartoon Network India aired the anime in May 2022. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, the second anime film in the Dragon Ball Super franchise, opened in India in August 2022.
