Dragon Ballfans rejoice, just announced at New York Comic Con we now know there’s a new series coming in 2024 calledDragon Ball: Daima.
Dragon Ball is no stranger to video games
Interestingly, Toriyama announced that his involvement with the new show would reach “beyond his usual capacity” which could mean he will oversee much more of the story or direct more of the animation.

In the footage we see Shenron appear and say “Now, state your wish”, after the Dragon Balls have drifted across the screen, then Goku and Vegeta are de-aged visually. Whether this is part of the plot, we’ll have to wait and see. Getting to see the cast in this chibi-style is intriguing and has theDragon Ballfan in me incredibly excited.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting news sinceDragon Ball Superconcluded and they released theSuper Heromovie. This is a unique direction to move in and one that may end up becoming the next generation ofDragon Ball, hopefully providing a nice jumping on point for newcomers to the show.
Fans are, understandably, linking the new footage toDragon Ball GT, which ran in the late 90s as ananime-exclusive show, not adapting the Manga, which was the usual tradition. The fact that it’s stated we’re getting an all new tale, does lend weight to a GT-type of show. Whether it exists alongside any possible futureDragon Ball Supermovies, or becomes the mainline show is information we don’t yet have.
The trailer shows several new planets, Bulma investigating a crashed ship, lots more familiar faces and a throne overlooking screens showing classic footage. Could this beDragon Balljumping onto a multiverse concept like so many other franchises?
