The new Dragon Ball is official now. We thought it was going to be Magic, but it’s called Dragon Ball, coming out next year in 2024 to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Dragon Ball. It was initially reported that the new anime series from the fandom would be “Magic,” but last week, Shueisha trademarked another name, Dragon Ball Daima. Daima being a demon or dark Magic or evil.
At New York Comic Con 2023, Toei Animation announced that the production of the next anime series has already started. We also find out that it will bring back some of the most exciting and amazing classic characters of Dragon Ball Z, including Goku, Bulma, Vegeta, and many others.
However, this is not going to be a normal reintroduction because all these characters are going to be a child, a similar approach that we saw in Dragon Ball GT.
Dragon Ball Daima: Akira Toriyama Returns with an Exciting New Dragon Ball Adventure!
While in the panel of this upcoming anime show, Akio Iyoku, the executive producer, talks about Toriyama and says that he was deeply involved way beyond his usual capacity when he was in the production process of this new show. Along with this, he has also proposed that all the episodes of this upcoming series are going to be completely new with an exciting storyline.
Just like any other day with Toei Animation, they have not revealed many details about the show. However, they did share a trailer of Dragon Ball Daima. The first part of the trailer shows us the history of Dragon Ball.
It is reported that the villains in the series would end up being some kind of demon, but it is going to be so interesting to know what kind of demon because there are a whole lot of demons in the storyline; The Buus are demons, the Majin’s are demons, King Piccolo is also a demon. So that means that there are a lot of demons in the Dragon Ball, but in this show, it appears to be like there is something brand new.
At the start of the trailer, we see a terrifying castle-like place, which looks like the HQ of the demons. Looking at it, it seems like it is in Hell.
Later, we see that there is some kind of Time Chamber thing of the Heroes. Here, we have what appeared to be two antagonists of the series, and they are going through the history of what we know as the Dragon Ball story. The one on the right looks like Demigra; maybe he is not him, but it looks like him.
This one more time solidifies that the villains are going to be Demons here. However, some of the fans have also reported that it kind of looks like a Supreme Kai, and if that is the case, then it is going to be a lot of fun.
The camera work in the series is also very phenomenon, which also reminds you of when Beerus and Whis were introduced for the very first time. We also see a new vehicle in this hell-like place because, as mentioned by Akio Iyoku, Toriyama is also designing new vehicles in the story.
Later, we also get another antagonist; of course, we do not know the name of any of these characters, and that is why we do not know who they are yet. We are going to get more information in the coming weeks or months.
We also find out that there is going to be a really great animation in this series. This is not going to have the same animation problems as we saw in Dragon Ball Super. It was reported that they have already got more than 10 episodes of this ready to go, but that is not confirmed yet.
In the press release, Toriyama says that there is going to be a Grand Conspiracy behind all this to basically take away the powers of our heroes. This was when we got the revelation of all the characters of the series into their kid’s form. We have Goku, Bulma, Chichi, Vegeta, Krillin, Android 18, Marin, Supreme Kai, Piccolo, and almost every other good guy.
So it looks like something amazing is going on in the series, and everyone is so excited about this. It is also going to be so exciting to find out what their powers will be in this form. Let us know in the comments what you think about this. You can also check the official website for the series Dragon Ball Daima.
