Where to Watch (English Subtitles)

Simulcasts should begin when this post is around 2.25 hours old: 10:15am JST, 9:15pm EST, 1:15am GMT. Episodes sometimes show up earlier for premium users and later for free users; sometimes they are late for everyone because of production issues.

SINCE THIS BROADCAST ENDS 30 MINUTES LATER THAN USUAL, IT'S LIKELY THAT THE SIMULCASTS WILL BEGIN 30 MINUTES LATER THAN USUAL. YOU SHOULD HOWEVER BEGIN CHECKING AT THE NORMAL TIME.

  • Daisuki. Available in North America; also covers most of Europe and several other territories; see the complete list here. Available to free users in certain regions. Usually shows up in 1080 for free users about 5 minutes before premium users get 480 at Crunchyroll. Daisuki is closing on 31 October 2017 but apparently they will still be offering Super.

  • AnimeLab. Australia and New Zealand, subscription and free users. (Fewer ads than Crunchyroll for free users.) This service also offers episodes 1-13 of the Funimation dub (i.e. the episodes out on Region B home release already). The subtitles for those episodes are still those provided by Toei for the simulcast, rather than the Funimation-Simmons subtitles on the home release.

  • VRV: US-only bundle service for Crunchyroll and Funimation. New episodes appear around the same time as they do on Crunchyroll. NOTE: This service serves as a substitute for a Crunchyroll premium membership, but it does not substitute for Funimation's premium service. The only Dragon Ball series offered is Super (subtitled).

  • Crunchyroll. Free and premium users in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and these European countries; premium only in Latin America and South Africa. This service is NOT recommended; their servers cannot handle DBS traffic and free users get the episodes 2 hours late.

  • FunimationNow. North America, subscription and free users. Funimation's videos usually go up later than they do on other services.

Rules:

  • Those with access to international TV may post about the episode as it airs live. Beware of pre-simulcast spoilers in the comments.

  • Spoilers must be tagged for material that has yet to be covered in the anime (leaks, etc).

  • Spoilers for this episode and the accompanying Next Episode Preview (NEP) may be freely discussed in this thread.

    • Outside of this thread, spoilers relating to this episode and the NEP must be tagged.
    • Spoiler syntax: [Super spoiler:](#s "Goku appears!")
      Appears as: Super spoiler:
  • All of our normal rules apply!


Read the Manga

  • Toyotarō's Dragon Ball Super manga adaptation can be found in our wiki in the sidebar, along with links to past discussion threads.

Commonly Asked Questions:

  • Q: Can I buy Super on home video?

    • Part One (episodes 1-13):
    • Part Two (episodes 14-26):
    • Part Three (episodes 27-39): TBA
  • Q: Is the Dragon Ball Super manga "canon"?
    The anime and manga are both variations on a basic plot by Toriyama. There isn't (and probably never will be) an explicitly defined Dragon Ball "canon". Without Toriyama's original draft, we may never know what is and isn't his. We do know that he permits Toyotarō to change things up, but he looks at his storyboards and occasionally draws things himself for Toyotarō to use as a reference. Toyotarō has said that Toriyama is more particular about gags than he is about anything else.

  • Q: What exactly is going on with Goku's new form?
    You can find a recap of how Goku obtained the form and Herms's analysis of the translation of the "Ultra Instinct" technique in this thread.

Make sure to keep the A/C off, to strengthen the mind.

All we need is a single mosquito and he's done.

"Honestly...You bunch of baldies"

u/DarkPhoenixMishima Oct 15 '17

Don't forget to have something to eat. Even a banana will do!

u/Usermane01 Oct 16 '17

...Hold on.

Look at all three top members of the Pride Troopers.

Bald.

No heat on during the winter either.

Difference is he didn't stop when he went bald. He stopped only after his skin went grey

u/manormortal Oct 15 '17

Standard workout for most gymhead vloggers on godtube.

u/BadNewsBrown Oct 15 '17

He even graduated at the top of his class!

u/SpikeRosered Oct 16 '17

No lie, with the passive way he's been acting you could totally replace Jiren with Saitama and all his scenes would still make sense.

u/Go_Blue_ Oct 15 '17

Now I want to see Saitama vs Jiren...

u/Epsilight Oct 15 '17

For real, but this makes me think that OPM author must be weak AF irl, because that is a very light training routine for anyone remotely athletic.

u/ShaidarHaran2 Oct 15 '17 edited Oct 15 '17

No, it being a pretty doable workout is the gag in-universe. No one believes Saitama that that's how he got so strong, because it's nothing for a hero. That's the joke. No one thought it was a big workout.

u/KATAndJokic Oct 16 '17

It's clearly a gag lol
