(Image credit: BIRD STUDIO/SHUEISHA, TOEI ANIMATION) “Due to a conspiracy, Goku and his friends are turned small,” Akira Toriyama wrote of Dragon Ball Daima’s story last October. The outline, posted on theofficial Dragon Ball websitebefore his passing, also teased an unfamiliar (and unnamed) location: “In order to fix things, they’ll head off to a new world.” Toriyama continued, “It’s a grand adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world. Since Goku has to make up for his petite size, he uses his Nyoibo (Power Pole) to fight, something not seen in a long time. Things will unfold that will close in on the mysteries of the Dragon Ball world.” In the post, Toriyama confirmed he “came up” with the story and settings but, even now, little is known about what to expect from Daima and how it fits into the series' timeline. Dragon Ball Daima will be the fifth mainline series after Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and Dragon Ball Super. Want to catch up on the story so far?
