Goku has already become a Super Saiyan God and fought the God of Destruction, so the question now is what comes next. Dragon Ball Super Beerus episode 6 premieres on Sunday, November 15 in Japan and on Crunchyroll. Here’s the release time in your region and a recap of last episode.
What Time Does Dragon Ball Super Beerus Episode 6 Come Out?
In Japan, the episode airs on Sunday, November 15, at 11:15 p.m. on Fuji TV, in the time slot One Piece usually holds. Outside Japan, it hits Crunchyroll a little later, so viewers in the Americas and Europe can watch it the same Sunday:
| Region | Date | Crunchyroll time |
|---|---|---|
| US Pacific (PST) | Sunday, November 15 | 8:00 a.m. |
| US Eastern (EST) | Sunday, November 15 | 11:00 a.m. |
| UK (GMT) | Sunday, November 15 | 4:00 p.m. |
| Central Europe (CET) | Sunday, November 15 | 5:00 p.m. |
Besides Crunchyroll, the series also streams on Netflix and Hulu after its premiere. Since Crunchyroll sometimes posts episodes a few minutes off schedule, it’s worth checking the app around that time.
What Is Dragon Ball Super: Beerus?
In case you landed here without knowing the series, Dragon Ball Super: Beerus is an enhanced new version of the 2015 Dragon Ball Super anime, produced by Toei Animation. It’s not a new story: it retells the Beerus saga, Frieza’s return and the Universe 6 tournament, but with redrawn scenes, refreshed animation and a reorganized narrative that moves faster.
That’s why it has far fewer episodes than the original. Some outlets report 19 in total, though Toei hasn’t confirmed it. The animation is led by Tadayoshi Yamamuro, one of the franchise’s most celebrated animators, with music by Norihito Sumitomo.
The series also debuted a new opening and ending: “ONOGAMI” by MEGATERA・ZERO, and an ending by VK Blanka. If you haven’t heard them yet, here’s our post with both videos: Dragon Ball Super: Beerus Opening and Ending Revealed.
Episode 5 Recap: “The God of Destruction and Son Goku”
Warning: this section contains episode 5 spoilers.
Episode 5 aired on November 8 and was one of the most anticipated. With help from his friends, Goku finally transforms into a Super Saiyan God, and with that new power he faces Beerus in a decisive battle for the fate of Earth.
For anyone who watched the original series, this moment comes much earlier than it did in 2015, which confirms this version condenses the story. And honestly, that faster pace suits the Beerus saga, which felt a bit slow back then.
What Could Happen in Super Beerus Episode 6?
The title and synopsis for episode 6 haven’t been released yet. But if the series follows the original story’s order, this episode will most likely wrap up the Beerus saga after the fight with Goku, or start setting up the next big arc: Frieza’s return, which came right after in the original series.
It’ll be interesting to see how much time it gives each part, because with so few episodes, any change in pacing really shows.
