"Dragon Ball Super" will now be available to English audience. Fans and viewers in the United States and other English-speaking countries can now access the popular anime via streaming platforms.

Toie Animation, the producer of the "Dragon Ball Super," announced on Wednesday that the continuation of Akira Toriyama's beloved martial arts anime, will be available to watch with English subtitles on digital streaming platforms Crunchyroll, Daisuki, and Anime Lab.

Now the martial arts anime is featuring its first storyline in 18 years. It has achieved remarkable success in Japan, leading to an international demand.

Toonami Asia may has responded to this demand when it announced last November that it would show the "English-language world premiere" of Dragon Ball Super in Southeast Asia and India in mid-2016. However, there had been no further information on the issue until Toie animation's announcement on Wednesday.

Digital streaming will commence on Saturday, October 22, at 6.00pm PST. The simulcast will begin with episode 63. Dragonball will be available on Crunchyroll to both free and subscription members while it is only available to subscribers in Latin America and South Africa

On Dasuiki, free users and subscribers in United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe will have access, while the digital streaming on animelab will be accessible to both free users and paying subscribers in Australia and New Zealand.

"Dragonball" is set in a futuristic alternate world and follows the tradition of the Dragonball Z television series. After the defeat of Majin Boo, Earth has become peaceful once again. Son Goku has settled down as a radish farmer and his family lives a peaceful life. However, a new threat has emerged - the god of destruction has arrived.
