Series Coverage

The Dai Kaiōshin and North Kaiōshin relaxing in the Kaiōshin Realm as seen in Dragon Ball Z episode 277, circa 5 million years ago.

Largely, this era is not directly portrayed in any Dragon Ball media. Events during this era are only referred to or shown briefly in flashback.

Notes

  1. In Dragon Ball chapter 205, King Enma is described as having been the only being to reach North Kaiō's Planet by way of Serpent Road in 100 million years, implying that Kaiō's Planet is at least that old.
  2. This exact date originates from Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 7: Dragon Ball Large Encyclopedia, which likely comes from multiplying the youngest possible age for Shin (five million years old) times the 15 generations which have passed since the Elder Kaioshin was sealed away.
  3. Dragon Ball Super chapter 43's narration provides a specific amount of time ago for which the battle between the Dai Kaiōshin and Moro took place.
  4. This exact date originates from Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 7: Dragon Ball Large Encyclopedia. In Dragon Ball chapter 445, Shin tells the story of Majin Boo by framing it as beginning when "mankind was learning to walk upright". In reality, the lineage of humans affords a wide range of dates for this evolutionary process, spanning across many multiple millions of years ago.
  5. In an interview session with Akira Toriyama in Super Exciting Guide: Character Volume, he offers an average lifespan of 75,000 years for Core People. This information is later included in Dragon Ball Chōzenshū 4: Dragon Ball Super Encyclopedia.
  6. In Dragon Ball episode 153, An'nin tells Goku that she has had her post for tens of thousands of years.
  7. In Dragon Ball Z episode 110, Gashew tells Piccolo that the Makyō Planet passes by Earth every 5,000 years. This exposition occurs in Age 763.
  8. North Kaiō introduces Sarte in Dragon Ball Z episode 196 as someone who defended his home planet from a meteor collision 3500 years ago. This exposition occurs in Age 767.
  9. Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 7: Dragon Ball Large Encyclopedia establishes the date of Arale's creation as Age 745, which correlates to the date of 1980 AD established in Dr. Slump chapter 9 as the year for the early events of Dr. Slump.
  10. In Dragon Ball Z episode 14, the Snake Princess tells Goku that she has lived on the Serpent Road for 1,500 years. This exposition occurs in Age 761.
  11. Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 7: Dragon Ball Large Encyclopedia explains that while Mister Popo's actual age is unknown, he has lived for over 1,000 years. This estimation works backwards from his first appearance in Age 753.
  12. In Dragon Ball chapter 280, Vegeta describes a Super Saiyan as appearing once every thousand years. This exposition occurs in Age 762.
  13. In Dragon Ball chapter 88, Karin gives his age as "a little over 800". The events of this chapter take place in Age 750.
  14. This date originates from Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 7: Dragon Ball Large Encyclopedia, but draws upon Mummy-kun's age of about 800 years old in Age 750 as documented in Dragon Ball: Adventure Special.
