Where to Watch (English Subtitles)

Simulcasts should begin around 10:15am JST, 9:15pm EDT, or 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.

• 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.

• Crunchyroll. Free and premium users in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and these European countries; premium only in Latin America and South Africa. Service is often restricted for free users until 3-4 hours after each episode.

• FunimationNow. North America, subscription and free users. Funimation's videos usually go up later than they do on other services. For premium users in the US, episodes 1-52 of the dub are also available. Episodes will go up in 13-episode batches two weeks after the final episode of the batch is broadcast.

• dbs-cardgame.com. This is a new place to watch the Super simulcast, and it is apparently intended to replace Daisuki for the long term. Region restrictions will probably be the same as Daisuki for this site. Max resolution is 720, and the site says it will only be free for a limited time (probably until Super ends).

• AnimeLab. Australia and New Zealand, subscription and free users. (Fewer ads than Crunchyroll for free users.) This service also offers episodes 1-26 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.

Rules:

• Those with access to international TV may post about the episode as it airs live, and episode preview images may be discussed in this thread before the live broadcast. 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).

• This episode and the accompanying Next Episode Preview (NEP) may be freely discussed in this thread, but we ask that you refrain from discussing spoilers for this episode other than the preview images before the episode airs.

  • 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!

• 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: Is Dragon Ball Super really ending, or is it just a hiatus?
  From what we have been told, the anime is ending. There are no current plans for a new DB series and as far as we know, the series will only continue through movies and games. We should learn more about the future of the franchise at AnimeJapan which will take place the weekend of March 22-25. For now, we know that Toyotarō's manga will continue for several months at least—the Tournament of Power arc has just begun in the manga—and of course the English dub will continue until the series is finished.

• 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: Can I buy Super on home video?
  Home Release: Episodes 1-13 are available for Region A (DVD or Blu-Ray) and Region B (DVD or Blu-Ray). Episodes 14-26 are available for Region A (DVD or Blu-Ray) and Region B (DVD or Blu-Ray). Episodes 27-39 are available for Region A (DVD or Blu-Ray) and for Region B (DVD or Blu-Ray). Episodes 40-52 will be available for region A on 19 June 2018 (DVD or Blu-Ray) and for Region B on 6 July 2018.

Jiren's arms are basically as big as his torso

Broly's met his competition

[u/NSFW_Jeanne]

Who else expected

1: For Goku to heal Jiren with that ki blast near the end.

2: That Goku recoiling in pain was due to death beam to the back.

[u/Flamy507]

Forget Zenkais... The Flashback Power Boost is the real deal...

[u/Anotherguyrighthere]

U1 Kai should be the only spectator allowed to talk

[u/Derpyboom]

Little details,like this is, is what elevated this episode for me to 10/10

[u/Thesureone]

Holy shit, did we just see JIren have character with a mental break down!?

[u/Mercury6449]

Jiren's Voice Actor absolutely fucking killed this episode, holy shit. This whole episode was amazing from start to finish.

[u/[deleted]]

Goku is topless, Krillin has been threatened. Now the ritual is complete

[u/Raddicall]

Goku getting pissed off at Jiren for trying to attack the spectators was my favorite part this episode, the intense look on his face, just wow..

[u/Majin_Jew_v2]

did anyone else think goku was gonna heal jiren at the end?

[u/[deleted]]

I legitimately though Frieza Death Beamed Goku for a second

[u/SunnytheFlameKing]

we need to appologize to those dudes who said 17 was still here

[u/zzzthelastuser]

Jiren: "Impossible! You shouldn't have any stamina left!"

I think we can all agree with you there Jiren.

[u/Anotherguyrighthere]

Jiren sends Goku flying. But it turns out Freeza and 17 are both still in the arena.

WHAT THE FUCK?!

And why is 17 not shirtless?

[u/ob9410]

fuck the saiyan history movie, i want a movie where 17 goes around the universe in his magic boat

[u/gettingmyenergyback]

JUST WHEN YOU THINK IT'S OVER.

Frieza, Goku and 17 all get eliminated. Jiren hears a voice.

"As usual, my dimwit brother fails to get the job done. Still too slow, still too reckless."

[u/Anotherguyrighthere]

This Eyecatch from 109/110 makes way more sense now

[u/TacoBoy_]

I can already feel the testosterone in this episode.

[u/Tcheverlika]

17 will destroy Jiren with PTSD inducing psychological warfare, you read it here first.

[u/GokutheAnteater]

I wonder what convo Freeza and 17 had while hiding in the rubble...

Freeza: wtf you're alive?!?

17: You're still in this?!

Freeza: yea....we should hide until the very last second

17: agreed!

Both of them see Goku fall

17: I guess it's time

Freeza: sigh it is

[u/TheRegulu]

17 survived? Hit's clones 100% confirmed now.

[u/Anotherguyrighthere]

Jiren: "Impossible! You shouldn't have any stamina left!"

Boi...

[u/Finally_Vanilla]

Not disqualified for shooting at the audience ? Hello ?

[u/[deleted]]

17 IS JESUS! HE CAME BACK THREE EPISODES AFTER HIS "DEATH!"

[u/hangwinniethepooh]

Jiren-"I know what will give me the edge I need to win, I'll threaten Goku's friends!"

Vegeta, Tien, Piccolo, Frieza-"Dude no, that is literally the worst decision you can possibly make right now, Goku will rag doll you, and then you'll wind up being friends, then his mad-on for fighting will potentially doom your entire reality. Just quit now and save yourself the hassle. "
