Unveiling the Secrets of Dragon Ball Daima as it Premieres
The highly anticipated series, Dragon Ball Daima, made its debut on October 11, showcasing beloved characters Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and others transformed into their younger versions due to a new villain’s machinations. Consequently, they must embark on an adventure to rectify the situation.
Following their battles against mighty foes, including Broly and the Red Ribbon Army’s resurgence, the Z Fighters are now addressing some complex magical artifacts in Dragon Ball Daima.

A significant question arises during this new saga regarding Daima’s role in the timeline. While Dragon Ball Super ceased airing in 2018, the franchise continued through the films Broly and Super Hero. Moreover, the manga has maintained its narrative continuity with the anime.
Geekdom101, an early informant on Daima prior to the anime’s release, provided detailed insights into the backdrop of this new series.
According to Geekdom, Dragon Ball Daima is “a sequel to the Majin Buu arc” and occurs before the DBZ OVA Dragon Ball: The Return of Son Goku and Friends and Battle of Gods.
Geekdom emphasizes that Daima is not merely a side story; rather, it is a pivotal chapter within the Dragon Ball universe, as it connects to Z as a sequel and serves as a concluding segment of Super.

The source notes: “The characters and worlds introduced in Dragon Ball Daima will reappear in the subsequent chapters of Dragon Ball.”
Although it’s unclear whether this is a direct adaptation from the manga, anime, or films, Geekdom firmly believes that these characters will return in a “significant storyline” in the future.
It is suggested that this concept was established prior to Akira Toriyama’s passing, yet there is a possibility that the direction may have changed posthumously. Nonetheless, Geekdom remains confident that the plans are intended to connect Daima with the broader Dragon Ball universe.
