Love your defense of the Super Kai. π Always so considerate and empathetic. π€

oh he for sure does. He didn't dig Gomah's vibe π

Yeah not sure why the dub didn't also come to Netflix at same time as crunchy roll. I'm sure they have some sort of deal that prevented it, but that really limits them especially since I would imagine more people on Netflix would be interested in dub than on Crunchy Roll. π€

many centuries too. have to double check but pretty sure it's been millions of years since Buu wiped his people out before his return π€

Yep, meant a year after Buu saga ππ€

We are always open to having our opinion changed on a character. Well, mostly open π

In Supreme Kai's defense he was always a student. He never got to graduate because all his teachers were murdered by Majin Buu. So by the time he came to meet Goku & the gang, he had zero information or training. He helped a lot in Super tho, it's more of his status than his strength that makes him useful. I mean he is able to transport to Zeno & btw baby Supreme Kai is painfully adorable π€£

Shenron pulling the βyour free trial has expiredβ with Gomah was hilarious, perhaps he has a soft spot for those silly earthlings that call upon him every year π

This episode marks the return of Stephanie playing kid Goku, from what I heard Toei Animation requested her return after she auditioned for Daima. As much as I love Shin, I love that you both give him shit for not doing his job properly π€£ the return of the power pole was super nostalgic, glad it made it's comeback. I believe the kid voices for all the characters are played by a younger new cast, the only exception of course would be Stephanie, which is really cool.

So if Goku's voice actress sounds familiar, that's because it's Stephanie Nadolny who did the voice for goku in the OG Dragon Ball series when he was a kid. It's a nice callback to the original series and a great sense of nostalgia for those who grew up watching the original dragon ball.

By the way Daima takes place after the majin buu saga but before super. I think a year passed after the majin buu fight.

It's nice to hear this in dub again. I got to see the theatrical release for the first three episodes of Diama's dub, and was gonna wait for the dub, but man Toei has really messed up with the promotion of this Anime, from before release with little advertisement, to waiting months to drop the dub instead of doing simuldub like most modern anime now, and only on crunchyroll at that. Especially since Dragon ball is still the biggest money maker for Toei, and this is Toriyama's final completed work (I'm sure there are things he worked on behind the scenes that we'll see later). It's understandable why a lot of fans are aggravated with the handling of this franchise.

Now you finally know why the supreme kai is always surprised by "mortal" powers. Because he is from the demon world originally. Though he shouldve definitely learned stuff over the centuries hes watched over U7

The power pole scene is so well animated. Had no right going this hard

Yeah idk how I feel about it continuity-wise

And the outro takes it even further, cause I believe the lyrics there also contain "Tori" and "Yama". It also ends with the shot of a bird flying off. Since the Japanese word for bird is "tori", the shot can be seen as symbolizing Daima being Toriyama's final work.

It's rather bittersweet to reiterate but... this is the final project related to Dragon Ball that Akira Toriyama worked on. Coming to terms with that makes this a very special project indeed, and as you'll see, it's chock-full on his charm. I hope you guys have fun with it, because it does truly feel like something special.

"Jaka Jaan" besides being an absolute banger of an opening, does something very sweet with its lyrics. Among its 7th and 8th lines, the lyrics are as follows (first in Japanese, than in Romaji):
ε€’γ―TORIγ©γ γͺYAMAγͺγ (Yume wa TORI dori naYAMAnai)
AKIRAγγͺγ (AKIRAmenai)

The difference in time is also VERY noticeable. I have to wonder if they'll keep her around from now on or not in future stuff.

There's a lot of recapping because this series is supposed to cue in an entirely new generation of children to the franchise. The original original Dragon Ball fans who watched the show in the late 80s are in their 50s now π€£ so this is supposed to be a multi-generational show shared by the whole family.

Glorio's name follows the Demon Realm denizen pun scheme of flowers. His is a play on the gloriosa flower, also known as a flame lily.

3:07 "A year after Super".
You may have misspoke here, but just in case you didn't, I'll just drop the correction bc that's a pretty big misunderstanding if you meant it.
DB Daima takes place less than 1 year after the Buu Saga, placing it about 3 years before the moment DBS begins with Battle of Gods.

2:42 Still don't know why, but this shot of Goku just pivoting around with the feathers falling down just makes me feel unexplainably happy whenever I see it.

Notice they brought gokuβs original VA back from OG DB!
Also Daima takes place almost immediately after the Buu Saga, so before Super.

Posted this on OGDB ep 2 but it matters so much here that I MUST repeat it:
Just finished ep 18 of Daima. Holy fuck.
To anyone who's reading this and is still just sticking with the dub: Ya'll better take every precaution for spoilers you can. Seriously. Things are about to go absolutely insane online.

You two may haveβ¦ feelingsβ¦ about Shin joining our main crew for this series. Canβt elaborate on why, but let me tell you that Daima has gotten a lot of Shin haters to start switching up on how they see him. Iβll be curious to see what you two think.

Gotta say, itβs rather surreal getting to hear Nadolnyβs Goku in a modern DB production after all this time. It's also poetic that you two are bridging the gap between her time in Dragon Ball so soon.

Lore Recap Compilation 2
- Shin arrived in Universe 7 in a spaceship. We long thought that the he was native-born to his respective universe, but that seems not to be the case.
- Most pointy-earred races in DB likely originate from the Demon Realm, but not ALL of them. This detail is fascinating when you consider who falls under this umbrella. Yardrats, Emperor Pilaf, Dodoria, Mr. Popo, the Kais/Supreme Kais, and more. Any of them could potentially be descendants of ancestors who originated from the Demon Realm.
- Denizens of the Demon Realm left their home to seek freedom or conquer planets across different universes. Namekians left out of desire for the former. This practice is no longer allowed.
