Diehard "Dragon Ball Super" fans in the South and Southeast Asia region are in luck because Toonami Asia has recently announced to the public that they are now bringing the English dubbed version of the hit anime to the region. Furthermore, the titles of episodes 19 and 20 have been revealed and a new story arc is now set to unfold.

The official announcement was made earlier this week when Toonami Asia, the kid's brand distributed and operated by Turner Broadcasting System Asia Pacific, confirmed that "Dragon Ball Super" is now heading to Southeast Asia as well as in India, according to the report from Toonami Faithful.

"This announcement is huge for fanboys and girls in Asia. Dragon Ball is undoubtedly the original and world's biggest anime export, and is a cornerstone of our programming on Toonami," Chief Content Officer for Turner's Kids Networks in Asia Pacific, Mark Eyers said on the statement. "Since the channel launched in 2012, Toonami has been airing episodes of Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball Z Kai, and to premiere Dragon Ball Super demonstrates the channel's continued commitment to securing must-have and must-see content, first on Toonami."

Furthermore, FUNimation has recently released a statement saying "FUNimation has no connection with the Toonami Asia Announcement or the premiere of its English language version of Dragon Ball Super in mid-2016," via Kazenshuu's most recent report. No updates yet for the specific date though, unfortunately.

Meanwhile, for the fans that are keeping a close eye on the episodes of the show, last month, Kanzenshuu has reported that the official titles of episodes 19 and 20 for "Dragon Ball Super" have been finally revealed.

The 19th episode, titled "Goku throws himself into training under Whis. Meanwhile in Hell, you-know-who suffers intense torment," will most likely transition the plot of the show into the story arc of the most recent movie "Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection of 'F'."

As for the basis of the speculation, in one of the scenes in the movie, fans have seen Freeza's torture by the hands of the little animal stuffed toys, marching around the tree he was tied to while playing musical instruments on a warm flower field.

The 20th episode, which is going to be titled "An unprecedented threat bears down on Earth!! At this time, an old friend comes to visit Bulma...!?," will most likely introduce Jaco, a member of the Galactic Patrol, that was also present on the "Resurrection of 'F'" movie.

It was said on the report from Kanzenshuu that the 19th episode is expected to air this Nov. 15 while the next one on Nov. 22.
