Dragon Ball DAIMA is set to take fans on a brand-new adventure, streaming on Crunchyroll from 11th October. As the latest addition to the Dragon Ball franchise, DAIMA commemorates the 40th anniversary of Akira Toriyama’s original manga, first published in 1984, which has since sold over 260 million copies worldwide. The new series promises to carry forward the legacy of Dragon Ball, while introducing fresh storylines and characters in a world loved by fans for decades.
Toriyama’s legendary creation began with Dragon Ball, following the adventures of Goku, a young warrior with a mysterious past. The saga continued with Dragon Ball Z, where Goku faces increasingly powerful foes and develops unforgettable friendships. Dragon Ball Super, the latest episodic series before DAIMA, pushed the boundaries of the Dragon Ball universe, introducing multiversal tournaments and godly powers. Now, with Dragon Ball DAIMA, the beloved characters are back, but this time, they’ve been shrunk due to a mysterious conspiracy!
Directed by Yoshitaka Yashima and Aya Komaki, and featuring music by Grammy Award-winning artist Zedd, Dragon Ball DAIMA brings a new twist to the series. Goku, along with his friends, must navigate a new challenge in the Demon Realm, where they face off against a young Majin named Glorio. With its bold new story and stunning animation by Toei Animation, DAIMA promises to capture the hearts of longtime fans and newcomers alike.
This release comes at a poignant time for Dragon Ball fans, as it marks one of the first major expansions of the franchise following the passing of its legendary creator, Akira Toriyama. The new series will undoubtedly honour his legacy by continuing to push the boundaries of what Dragon Ball can offer.
Dragon Ball DAIMA is more than just a new series—it’s a celebration of one of the most iconic anime franchises of all time. With the full force of Crunchyroll behind its release, fans across the UK and beyond can experience this next chapter in the Dragon Ball saga as it unfolds.
Be sure to catch the latest adventure in the world of Dragon Ball starting 11th October on Crunchyroll, with new episodes simulcast weekly alongside the Japanese broadcast.
