"Dragon Ball Daima" series announced, fall 2024

[Lulcielid]

Just announced at New York Comic Con panel.

Toriyama words from the announcement:

Hello. I’m Akira Toriyama.

I’m currently working on a new Dragon Ball. The Title is “Dragon Ball DAIMA”.

“DAIMA” is a made-up term, which in Japanese characters would be “大魔” or in English would be something like “Evil.”

Due to a conspiracy, Goku and his friends are turned small. In order to fix things, they’ll head off to a new world! It’s a grand adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world.

Since Goku has to make up for his petite size, he uses his Nyoibo (Power Pole) to fight, something not seen in a long time.

I came up with the story and settings, as well as a lot of the designs. I’m actually putting a lot more into this than usual!

Things will unfold that close in on the mysteries of the Dragon Ball world. Hope you enjoy these different-from-usual battles that are cute and powerful!!

Goku and friends are turned into kids and now they go on an adventure into a new world to fix this.

When I heard the premise I thought it sounded stupid, but the production quality actually looks really good. Cautious optimism it is.
