There’s a new Dragon Ball anime series on the way titled Dragon Ball Daima, and it features kid versions of Goku, Vegeta, Bulma, and loads more fan-favorite characters.
Dragon Ball Daima was announced during New York Comic Con’s Dragon Ball panel with a three-minute trailer that’s now been published on Toei Animation’sYouTubechannel. Check it out:
Now, we’re entering a new era of the series with Dragon Ball Daima, featuring a new and original story from series creator Akira Toriyima, who will also be doing character design. Not much is known about the story so far, but the trailer reveals newly drawn, vaguely Chibi kid versions of Goku, Vegeta, Bulma, Chi-Chi, Piccolo, Mr. Satan, Krillin, Android 18, her daughter Marron, Yamcha, Oolong, Puar, Supreme Kai, and Master Roshi. I’m completely confused about how this all connects in a logical timeline, but it looks very cute regardless.
There’s no dialogue or story synopsis in the trailer, but the tone overall seems to be lighthearted even compared to Dragon Ball Z and Super, which both balance ridiculously large-scale battles with silly character-driven scenes throughout each season.
