Why Dragon Ball DAIMA is Canon?!

[mikegamikega]

To think this all started with Bulma finding some wild animal in the jungle while looking for the four star dragonball

[paperluigi]

I swear, if Toriyama’s ghost came down from the heavens to declare that Daima is indeed canon, DB fans are somehow gonna turn copium into an actual resource for consumption.

[j.i.k.]

Dragon Ball Daima actually aligns with the Granola arc in DB Super. Toyotaro confirmed that Toriyama was the one who came up with the concept about Namekians originating from a different realm in DB Super chapter 69. Toriyama with DB Daima series confirms that this was the demon realm.

I think it’s part of Toriyama’s work than Toei’s anime, I think? Well specifically his manga, Z B.O.G, Resurrect F, (Super) Broly, and SuperHeroes, and his Super’s outlines / notes that were used for Toei and Toyotaro’s.
That’s what I think at least?

I honestly wanted the Moro ark, but Daima is fine

[jonathanjolaoso]

Remember when Vegito went inside Buu and defused? Kabito Shin did the same thing to Defuse. Cause in Daima, the Potaras were still on their opposing ears but they were not fused.

"It is very likely this will be cleared up eventually" oh you sweet summer child

[PerfectBeingCell-Official]

"Hey Bulma remember that time I turned into a baby?"

[ThatOneKiw]

edit: this aged like shit, ik they have SSJ4 and Shin didnt get refused


My theory is that when the wish is made to return them all to adults again, its probably gonna be worded weird like “return everyone to how they were when Buu was defeated” and then Kibito and
Shin are gon be put back together or smth, and it would also make sense for Goku to no longer have a transformation (if he gets one) at the beginning of Super

Bro idk why ppl are hating on Daima, I’m really enjoying it tbh!

[ChaosCrack]

I personally think Dragon Ball Gt is part of the main continuity but not a part of the main canon. Like it's a branch in a timeline situation, ie what if Beerus never woke up kinda thing

[omarbrown]

Daima bout to have our brains explode with the amount of new lore

[TheWhiterabbit-pp]

So far, I’m enjoying the series. It looks pretty cool.

[IgnatiusBlaze]

I don't think anyone doubted it's canon, unless they're just avid haters, I haven't seen Daima, waiting till it's all out dubbed (happy the dub kid Goku voice actor is back, I'm gonna watch it that way). GT canon is... yes debated, but it is canon. Even if it follows its own timeline that doesn't mean it isn't canon, multiverse does not make something canon or not canon.

Toriyama was more involved than people give credit for with GT. That and he did like GT and its direction with his brand. unlike Hollywoods Dragon Ball which is what pushed him to come back to Dragon Ball and tell a new story, it was so bad Toriyama bounced out of retirement.

Especially when Toriyama did consider it canon didn't he? Might be misremembering but recall him saying Super is still going to end at the Peaceful World Saga, which was end of Z, and would thus still lead into the 10 year jump into GT.

[BogusBigusDingus]

Idc because it’s the best DB content since the CELL saga. One fight in this has most dramatic heft, detail, thoughtful choreography, cinematography, and just straight beautiful than ANY fight in Super, baring the movies. I’m impressed.

[BelroseYT]

It fills in the blanks and I respect that

[HamTheHobkin]

Plus if you pay attention when they go through the gate. It is specified that each opening leads to a different timeline. Meeting, yes this is in the Canon universe. But as stated with Future trunks. There is multiple timelines of the same Canon universe.

[MrPonytron]

I personally don't care if it's canon or not. We're getting more Dragon Ball ❤

[thekingofbel]

Everything you said for daima you can say for gt, toriyama already accepted the anime and manga together as one complete story, he might not have worked on gt as much as people wants but he did accept it as a canon end to dragon ball, and even later confirmed it in dragon ball kakarot where time patrollers are seen in the games main story as well as other events that toriyama confirmed would be added which are now canon. As toriyama considered kakarot an accurate retelling of the series main timeline.

another strange thing other then the split of shin and kibito in daima/super, vegeta unlocks ssj3 in daima, but in super during the goku black arc, trunks asks vegeta to use ssj3 and vegeta gets mad about it since he doesn't rlly have the form in super.
