Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

[sangofe]

Don't know how to react right now... Animation looks pretty good, but why take such a lousy concept from GT (revert the main character into a child) to all cast?

Actually I love that all characters are turned to children.

So the Dragon Ball Magic rumor with Goku and Shin was bullshit after all. Gee, who would have thought

On topic, don't know how I like the concept of Daima. Seems to be geared towards a younger audience. As for voice acting, do the actors use the adult voices of the characters?

Not completely bullshit. Shin is in the trailer, maybe it will be centered around them?

[SupremeKai25]

Shin and Kibito are separated in the trailer, so this must be Post-BoG era. Unless the magic somehow unfused them too.

[The Monkey King]

Monkey's Paw: Animation and visuals look great but why turn them all into kids??

It was clearly half true/incomplete information.

Message from Toriyama

It says they are turned SMALL not KIDS

[Shaddy]

Roshi and Satan are young. There's a shot of what looks like a flashback to King Piccolo regaining his youth, and Goten and Trunks are babies. It's quite clearly a de-aging spell.

[The Monkey King]

It says they are turned SMALL not KIDS

Get real please. They were clearly all de-aged, if they weren't why are Trunks and Goten babies?

[Hellspawn28]

Daima reminds me of the old playground rumor of Dragon Ball GT claming that everyone got turn into a kid besides Goku and use the picture of Vegeta Jr as Kid GT Vegeta.

[Grimlock]

Damn, poor Marron. The girl stays as a baby for over ten years, gets a growth spurt in such an unnatural short time, and then goes right back to being a baby. Even background character such as her can't catch a break.

I do hope this thing of being kids gets resolved quickly, and not take up the whole series (especially if it's a long one).

I've seen the trailer, I'm just pointing out that they used that term. It's just strange, that's all.

[Bross;Bruno]

So about the episode number, Ajay said on stream that he doesn't know and none of his sources know the amount, so the part of the leak about 12 to 15 episodes might be bs, instead he said that they are close to that number in episodes already finished, which feels INSANE.

[eledoremassis02]

I wonder what the terms with the spell are because everyone behind them are still adult sized


But people like Ox King are small. So I'm assuming its just people in Vegeta and Gokus inner circle (since they're the strongest beings on earth/universe)

Also, Roshi is stll bald so it would indicate its just their size and not age

[Zephyr]

If it was just size-changing, then why are Goten and Trunks babies?

Honestly, why are Goten and Trunks babies? It clearly didn't de-age people by a set amount of years, because Roshi looks to be as youthful as most of the rest of them. But if Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, etc. are turned no younger than Roshi despite the vast gulf in age, why are Goten and Trunks turned younger than Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, etc. despite being much closer in age?

[Hellspawn28]

Chi Chi doesn't look the same as she did in the Pilaf saga.

[Grimlock]

Also, Roshi is stll bald so it would indicate its just their size and not age

Didn't Muten Roshi have hair at some point? I seem to recall that. If that's the case, shouldn't he have hair in this series?

[Koitsukai]

Toriyama really is cherrypicking stuff from GT and the movies and just going to town with it

[eledoremassis02]

Yea


Tho, thinking about it now. Did they show young roshi in the manga (like a flashback or photo?) This is all I can recall atm in regards to his hair lol


Edit: Characters with facial hair dont have it....wich does support the age-down

[sigmasigma]

Shin and Kibito are separated in the trailer, so this must be Post-BoG era. Unless the magic somehow unfused them too.

Would it be possible to be right after BoG? Burma has BoG hairstyle rather than the post-RoF one. And the scene in the trailer look like Bulma's birthday party in BoG too

[ZeroNeonix]

So this is basically Dragon Ball Babies. Sigh... I'll give it a try, but the concept to me sounds so boring. There is so much stuff they could do in this universe, so many loose threads they've teased us with without a hint of intention to actually follow through on them. Turning everyone into babies is one of those bottom of the barrel ideas you use when you can't think of anything better to do. Why is THIS the thing to get so much visual polish? This is all very confusing to me.

Get ready to see lots of widows of Moro and Granolla arcs crying from this day forward
Absolutely loved this, I just don't understand why they insist on keeping some things in 3D, 2D + 3D animation mix is something that rarely looks good in DB imo

I'm confused about a lot of things, like, I won't even ask if it takes place after or before EoZ, but rather ask, does this even take place after Granolla?
Whis and Beerus are nowhere to be seen, Goku and Vegeta are on Earth, Goku is using his gi without the symbols just as he does in the entire Super manga before the Super Hero arc, Vegeta is back to his Cell Saga suit, which he stops using and switches to his suit from the Boo Saga at the end of the Granolla Saga and he continues using it in Super Hero

Man, I don't know, I think this could take place at any point of the story after the Champa arc, because of Kaioshin and Kibito returning unfused, the scenario just doesn't seem to be near or post Super Hero/EoZ for me.

As for Goku and everyone else being turned into kids, I knew this had nothing to do with GT, and I'm pretty sure this was made to make the story work, if the threat they're going to face is indeed a Makaioshin(s), then I supposed the villain's power level is meant to be around the same as of the Kaioshins, the current strength of the characters is miles ahead of the Kaioshins, so they had to be nerfed somehow if that's really the case
It doesn't explain everything of course, Goten and Trunks were able to go SSJ with ease as kids, and Goku just doesn't seem to be able to use any of his transformations in the trailer, if he was, wouldn't it be unecessary to use the nyoibo again? I guess the wish was to make them weaker, and turning them all into kids again would also make things harder for them?

Dragon Ball GT is canon.
