LEGIT SAME OP

Please let us see Degesu one more time bc he was supposed to have his moment, the setup was there, but they just fumbled the entire bag. I am going off in the tags abt this because I think this highlights yet another instance of a much bigger issue in Daima.

That's it? Why did they make the whole episode have Degesu's name if he was only going to appear for 5 minutes without any depth and be defeated by a hat?

I thought the relationship between Degesu and Shin was going to be explored further... Do you think this will be the last time we see Degesu in Daima?

Majin Vegeta in Dragon Ball DAIMA Episode 1: “Conspiracy”

[msdbzbabe]

I screamed, Majin Vegeta scenes in Dragon Ball Daima episode 1

[dailycupofcreativitea]

There are 3 reasons why Vegebul stuff annoys me in modern DB:

(Before you read: POV me begging the Vegebul fans for mercy before being destroyed for this post):

1) It feels like an overdone gag, like the Beerus/Whis loving food gag. It happens so many times it feels cringe for both Bulma AND Vegeta. WE GET IT, you're MARRIED!

2) No other couple gets as much "couple screentime". It's often said that "DB/Toriyama isn't good with romance" except Bulma and Vegeta are apparently exempt from this rule. Why the focus on Bulma and Vegeta, when Goku/Chichi, Gohan/Videl, Krillin/18 and others have ample opportunity for screentime? The others are often written more nuanced/slice-of-life, meanwhile we get professions of love from Vegeta/Bulma all the time

3) It sets them as a standard to which all other couples look worse ("look how perfect they are, how perfect of a husband Vegeta is, how sexy of a wife Bulma is, not like "hur dur what's a kiss" Goku")

3) It flanderizes Bulma as "Vegeta's wife". It really bothers me that one of Bulma's main roles seems to be Vegeta's personal cheerleader now, that is usually done very publicly. The episode in Daima with the bath thing was my 13th reason. The only scene I really like is when Bulma hugs Vegeta and cries in the DBS manga. In watching and reading the DB manga, yes Bulma is written to be irrational and hot-headed but she's also quite calm, cool, intelligent, multi-dimensional. She's also the victim of flanderization in DB Super. I say this all with LOVE for Vegebul, which I actually do like throughout the Android saga (for how resistant he was to it) and Buu saga (for how much love he showed he really had for them). I like what Bulma does to Vegeta's character, I just hate how it's COMPLETELY overdone now.

Episode 2 better bring back "Hey, it's me, Goku!"

[hi-there-buddies]

My favorite part about the new Daima episode is Shenron basically going:

“Fuck you mean 3 wishes? I don’t even know you. You get 1”

[enriquemzn262]

Talking about anime, time to mention the shows I’m watching this season:

Dandadan

I remember trying the manga when it first came out, dropped it after the second chapter since I fucking hate high school shit, but the anime looked well animated and the intro kicks ass, so I gave it a second chance and hooooly shit, it’s really fucking good! The start is indeed sloppy, but once aliens and spirits make their debut, it’s all uphill from there!

Great animation, characters and fight scenes galore, plus a surprisingly heartfelt and tragic story in the seventh episode, 10/10 so far!

Ranma 1/2

I grew up with the OG series, so it holds a special place in my heart, and man if the remake hasn’t disappointed me in the slightest! Great animation, amazing music, the characters feel even more charming than before, and even Akane got toned down from her bitchy self I still clearly remember from way back when.

Apparently the adaptation is much closet to the manga than the OG series, hence why it has faster pacing and somewhat more mellowed characters, and after reading that that means that piece of shit happosai is no longer becoming a recurring nightmare, I can honestly say I’m even more excited for this one !

Dragon Ball Daima

I’m latino, if I don’t watch this I’ll be banned from ever enjoying arepas again… Naw, I’ve been watching Dragon Ball for basically all my life, so of course I have to watch this one, plus OG DB was always my favorite, and this one truly captures the essence of that story!

Also, since its kid Goku again, his stupidity, which Super turned up to 11 for no good reason, finally makes in-universe sense, so that’s another plus!

TsumaSho

What everyone, myself included, wrote off as yet another ultra degenerate anime, this time about a dead wife reincarnating as a 10-year okd child, turned out to be quite the wholesome, if ultimately tragic (especially after the last episode ) series about a broken family of a dad and an adult daughter slowly recovering from 10 years of grief and darkness after the said death wife AND mother comes back and basically tells them “time to get your shit together you stupid idiots”, which, they do.

The mom character is the best, as while she’s reconnecting with her old family, she has to deal with her new one in the form of a broken divorced mom who keeps unintentionally hurting her, all because her own home life was a living nightmare, while her love life is nothing but betrayals.

It sorta reminds me of the weird telenovelas I used to watch at a friend’s house, but in a good way, don’t let the weird premise drive you off, it is not perverted in the slightest!

And that’s about it! I tried another anime about a slime girl, dropped it one episode in (I didn’t like its humor), then another about a sentient robot arm thing, dropped it after the third episode (mainly because the tone was all over the place), and another about the fan of a magical girl accidentally becoming evil, kinda like THAT degenerate anime from the beginning of the year, only not degenerate, gave it a try because of that, turned out to be the most boring shit I’ve ever watched in a long while.

Honestly, this season has been weak in terms of number of good shows, but man the ones that are actually good are FANTASTIC!

Vegeta and Bulma eating together in Dragon Ball Daima Episode 1 💙

Don’t mind Goku’s big belly

[tobiasdrake]

So... what does the future of Dragon Ball hold?

Total shot in the dark: My money is on re-adaptation of the manga, similar to what other popular IP like Fullmetal Alchemist or Ranma 1/2 have done/been doing.

Given the popular reception (with people who aren't me) of Daima's first episode reanimating parts of the Buu arc? That seems like an effective way for Toei to milk their animation chops and push a new Dragon Ball product while postponing the controversial day when they have to break from Toriyama completely and go "Okay Dragon Ball is just ours now."

If I was a Toei exec, I'd at least consider just doing Dragon Ball over from start to finish with new animation and calling it something like "Dragon Ball Reincarnated" or somesuch.

There's also the possibility of new DBS episodes adapting the Moro and Granolah arcs. To my understanding, the Super anime ended because Toriyama didn't like it very much, so he transitioned to just working on the manga with Toyotaro while Toei did the movies Broly and Super Hero. But... well, that's not a factor anymore.

I wanted to tell you my point of view on Degesu and know what you think (sorry for the mistakes I'm French) I find that Degesu does not have at all the same character as his sister Aerius, I watched once again the episodes where Degesu sees and compared to his sister he is much more "submissive" and a little more "fearful" by example in the last episode of db daima he was scared to death in front of Gomah and above all he submitted enormously. Compared to her sister who we see is absolutely not afraid of Gomah and doesn't even hesitate to have lots of secrets. I wonder if Degesu is really that bad. I would really like to know what wish he wanted to make in episode 1. But I think that has the final battle, even if he talks with his brother Shin or whatever. I think he would become docile and perhaps find his way back to the right path. In any case I want your opinions!!!!

Gohan vs Super Buu | Dragon Ball Daima | Episode 1

[cuttyclowngirl]

Daima EP.5 (Spoiler) Review/theories

• While Panzy's eye color means nothing in regards to her lineage, she does come from an important lineage as some of us suspected. Panzy, princess of machine otakus. Glorio not immediately recognizing her by name or appearance likely implies either 3rd world demons aren't interested in the royal family in general or Panzy's very existence is somewhat restricted to those who live/work at her castle. Could it be that she never actually received a collar as a result of that? Is that why she wears the scarf?

• Glorio very clearly doesn't want anyone outside of Goku's circle to join in regardless of any help they can offer. (Not part of Dr Arinsu's plan?) No choice now. Panzy's a helpful mechanic.

• Glorio did in fact speak to King Kadan, who did not in fact request that Glorio seek out those who defeated Majin Buu; implying that Glorio "snuck" into King Gohma's castle & gathered intel on Goku & crew in episode 1 before being "sent out" by King Kadan. Even a 3rd world demon who does "work" in the 1st world shouldn't be able to get anywhere near the castle of THE SUPREME KING of the DEMON REALM. He was let in. Dr Arinsu popped up unannounced in episode 1 & Glorio just happened to be spying behind a pillar? Nah.

• The 3rd demon world being the biggest, (yet worst off) world in the entire realm might just maybe imply worlds 1&2 have slightly lower gravity, but probably not.

• King Kadan is a man of seemingly righteous anger (Glorio describes him as an uncivilized Mafia boss) who wants to get rid of King Gohma & somehow assume the throne of Supreme King. For "peace". Is that actually possible? Was he perhaps promised that position by a manipulator in the shadows? (Dr Arinsu?) Panzy said her father "only steals from criminals & only kills bad people", which is usually a set up for a heartbreaking reveal that'll leave Panzy in tears. Or it could be nothing.

• Apparently those awful collars even function as tracking devices.

• They even have onigiri in the Demon Realm. Cute. Implies demon rice fields & unique demon ocean seaweed.

• Panzy has a knife she hasn't used yet. Judging from all that courtyard soldier training going on at her castle, she probably picked up a few moves from watching & learning.

• It was nice hearing Goku introduce himself with both his names. His interactions with Panzy are cute so far, as I'd hoped. Panzy herself is charmingly stubborn, insisting on getting her way without throwing tantrums/ throwing a fit.

• In the 3rd world at least, the inhabitants live up to a thousand years. This likely doesn't apply to the Glinds who live for a VERY long time.

• Every Majin (demon) can use at least one magic spell. So could magical enhancement explain Glorio's strength?

• Goku can canonically touch his nose with his tongue.

• Panzy implied that there are next to no Glinds in the Demon Realm due to the vast majority leaving ages ago, as many of us suspected. Though based on the passive aggressive conversation Shin had with Glorio episode 3, there might be a handful of Glinds somewhere in 2nd world.

• So the stick with blue cloth tied to it from the OP isn't a grave marker, but a path marker. Based on the sound of the wind (in the scene in this episode) & the direction the cloth was blowing, you're supposed to take the path the cloth points to. (In the OP the cloth is blowing to the right, then the camera pans to the right, where Goku & crew are seen traveling)

• Panzy confirms that Dabura was still a bad guy prior to the events of the Buu saga, so thankfully he hasn't been retconed as a good guy King. (Wouldn't make sense)

• Dende's caretaker (nanny?) is cute. Hope she gets a name. Much smarter of King Gohma planing on raising Dende so he can have his own personal set of dragon balls & probably get rid of Neva. (So it was probably Degesu's idea)

• I want to know what those demon onions have seen...

• The Tamagamis have never been defeated. Their poor win streak's about to be demolished.

• Smart of Shin (Supreme Kai) to bring up the pin number issue with King Kadan, who introduced us to a demon (of currently unspecified gender) named "Hybis" (Hibiscus flower?) who loves ballet & will head out to pick up/help Vegeta & crew. Hybis also shows off a device that's visually similar to the dragon radar, but also Babidi's energy reading device we saw Spopovich using when Gohan went SSJ2 at the tournament in the Buu saga. Just cooler. (Panzy is also seen holding a similar device in the ED) I swear, if the eyeball on Hybis' belt turns out to be the Tertian Oculus...

• Shin straight up drops "universe 7" in front of Goku, who doesn't register it & that's hilarious. Shin also finally shared his suspicions of Glorio with Goku, bringing up things we've been bringing up & such. Goku was Goku about it.

• I wasn't ready for the children's book art style bit when King Kadan ordered 3 men to steal a plane for Hybis from the "Nemophy Gang".

• Man, someone must've put a plane curse on Glorio, cuz bro has ZERO luck in that department. A 4 day trip & it breaks down in 2 minutes. (Guess Kai-Kai isn't an option)

• Hope we return to Kadan castle from time to time to introduce us to a few of those background characters like cool, pretty, buff red head with the silly ah chest plate.

• Wonder if Glorio actually has any of that liquor King Kadan offered to provide.

• Cute detail of Goku carrying luggage with his nyoibo.

• I super hope that axolotl tailed stuffed animal Panzy brought along will actually be sold IRL. I want.
