Synopsis - "Hello. I’m Akira Toriyama.
I’m currently working on a new Dragon Ball. The Title is “Dragon Ball DAIMA”.
“DAIMA” is a made-up term, which in Japanese characters would be “大魔” or in English would be something like “Evil.”
Due to a conspiracy, Goku and his friends are turned small. In order to fix things, they’ll head off to a new world! It’s a grand adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world.
Since Goku has to make up for his petite size, he uses his Nyoibo (Power Pole) to fight, something not seen in a long time.
I came up with the story and settings, as well as a lot of the designs. I’m actually putting a lot more into this than usual!
Things will unfold that close in on the mysteries of the Dragon Ball world. Hope you enjoy these different-from-usual battles that are cute and powerful!!"

Ironically just finished Super about 10 minutes ago on my Dragon Ball rewatch (did Kai instead of OG Z). I’m intrigued by this, although I’m not gonna lie, mildly disappointed this isn’t a Super follow-up covering Moro, Granolah and whatever comes after Super Hero

I'm honestly not super interested, sort of feels like a real backtrack the series doesn't need but I also get the logic of going back to the Dragon Ball roots so it could be fun, but having said that, I really respect Toriyama for going "Hey, so I'm still slightly annoyed about that GT thing so the next series is just going to be me writing my own version of GT, cool? And it'll be official because I wrote it!"

Yeah, can't say I'm super excited about this. The art and animation look great but I don't have the same nostalgia for Dragon Ball as I do Z and this along with GT always seem to be wanting to relive that era a bit. Would rather following up on Super Hero and Broly.

I’ll die on the hill of Dragon Ball being a way better show then DBZ Hey, a lot of people do and I'm sort of glad it's getting some time to shine at this point between this and the Kakarot DLC a couple of months ago. It's just there is a part of me that wonders if this is just a way of avoiding progressing the series more. Going back to the well instead of going with the cool things that you can tweak from the Manga for a new adaptation. Like, honestly, a better idea might be showing Dragon Ball on TV again, maybe doing a Kai-like thing of making the amination stick out in 4K or whatever and showing its importance instead of going "It's the Dragon Ball you know but smol!" Again, happy to be proven wrong but part of it does feel like a back-and-forth from an executive really desperate for Toriyama to remake the original Dragon Ball and this was the middle ground. |

I don't really mind but both GT (I know, I know) and BoG have done something like this. Moreover it's that we just can't escape the era before EoZ.

Curious how this goes. The whole gang getting GT'd is an interesting wrinkle, since we've never really seen someone like Vegeta in this state
More curious about the villains. They highlighted Babadi a fair bit there...

I don't have the same feelings about it a lot of other people do. Happy for people who love it but it's not for me. |

I will say, I am pleased we're not doing something that involves going back to the well of "Raditz to Buu" again. And yeah, stuff is referenced in the trailer but it feels more for intention than actually be a part of the plot.

Happy for people who love it but it's not for me. I’m one of the few people who actually watched the brief mid 90’s run of Dragon Ball, I didn’t get into DBZ until the end of the Frieza run in 2000. When it finally got a full US release, my buddy and I watched the whole f***ing 500 episode run of DB and DBZ over about a year or so. Since then, I’ve felt DB was my personal preference. |

Kid Satan is incredible. My head canon is that aged-up Trunks and Goten broke Toriyama and this is the result.

What's going on with The Super Manga anyway. Last I saw, Frieza had become Black and Goten and Trunks were the new Saiyamen.

I was at the panel, the animation is shockingly good for this random side anime.

Like, it feels like Super Hero but it’s also likely an easier on the budget version which was probably the intention at testing out that style on the movie which worked better for DB the more I saw it in motion. Still haven’t actually seen it yet so I need to judge better haha |
