The latest episode of Dragon Ball Daima has stirred considerable discussion online due to the introduction of Super Saiyan 4, one of the most beloved transformations from Dragon Ball GT. It’s unfortunate that GT has never been recognized as canon since Akira Toriyama did not participate in its production. However, with the recent appearance of Super Saiyan 4 in Daima, many fans are questioning whether this transformation is now officially part of the main storyline.
The Context of Dragon Ball Daima in Relation to Dragon Ball Super
In Dragon Ball Super, the Super Saiyan 4 transformation, which surpassed Super Saiyan 3, is not mentioned. This raises many uncertainties regarding how all these elements will fit into the timeline. If Toriyama were to be involved in the creation of Daima before passing, many are left wondering what will happen next.
– I don’t follow the series closely, but from what I see on Twitter, it seems like this is a kind of revival of GT and Toriyama is believed to have written this story.
– Ever since Toriyama passed, anyone has the right to do anything they want and reinterpret the content from GT as they see fit.
– Let’s not forget that it was previously stated that Super Saiyan 4 was not canon, so if Daima canonizes Super Saiyan 4, does that mean Super Saiyan 4 is not really canonized in Daima?
– Let’s just call it Super Saiyan 4 and keep it as a remnant of the past. The aim is to make the transformation in GT less iconic.
– I think Toriyama must be tired of people constantly saying ‘this is canon’ and ‘this is not,’ the author might just say: ‘Let’s make everything canon, just be quiet about it.’
– Daima is still boring, it only contains Vegeta transforming into SSJ3 and some episodes with Goku SSJ4 that are worth watching.
– It seems they are only trying to attract audiences through nostalgia, as there are no longer any original storylines, just doing these things to profit from fans.
