| But...... the main staffs has been announced for a while now, alongside with Masako Nozawa reprising her role as Goku (Why the hell the voice role is still pending tho?). Still not too sure what to think about this series aside of it screaming GT 2.0 to me lol |
| the sakuga is great so far i hope they have a healthy production schedule with this unlike with super |
| This won't be a chibi comedy show? Is it really a completely new DB anime? |
 |
| I might actually watch this if it has the spirit of the original DB. I hope it's not like one of those shitty comedy spin offs. |

The age of Super is over. The age of Daima has began!

| @RobertBobert It's a new canon series, yes. From what we know, it's supposed to be a throwback to the OG Dragon Ball, with the presentation even calling it a "JRPG-like adventure". |

| @Ionliosite2 Another spin-off to the main story to artificially inject life into the plot again, as was the case with Super? |

| @RobertBobert Super was a sequel, not a spin-off, and this one is also a sequel (very clearly takes place after Z from the promos). |

| @Ionliosite2 But don't the events of Super take place parallel to the events of Z? And how will they explain Goku's return to his form in the first half of the manga? |

| @RobertBobert No? Super takes place after the Majin Boo Saga, the last arc of Z. They already explained in the annoucement that it was an evil ploy by the currently unnamed villains that turned Goku and the rest of the Z warriors into kids. |

| @Ionliosite2 Lord, don’t tell me that this was Akira Toriyama’s idea, and not the producers’ plan to develop the franchise supported by him. |

| @RobertBobert Toriyama was said to be even more involved with this series than with Super, so yeah this is from him. |

| @Ionliosite2 So eventually I'll have to watch Super before starting this? I'm already familiar with the Z storyline thanks to the games, but I'll have to watch Z or Kai first if that's important once I finish the last 20+ episodes of original later. |
|
| It looks great. This trailer emanates strongly with pre-Z energy, haha. I'm positive about Dragon Ball Daima. I feel it will be really fun to watch. What's more, original Dragon Ball vibes are always cool to see in this franchise, so that's another positive aspect of this show, in my opinion. Y'know, returning to the OG Dragon Ball atmosphere, but mixing it with crazy stuff that happened later on in the story. |
| Hopefully this can recapture the charm of the original. |
