Description of Dragon Ball Daima by Akira Toriyama
Hello, I’m Akira Toriyama. I’m currently working on a new Dragon Ball. The title is “Dragon Ball DAIMA”. “DAIMA” is a compound term, which in Japanese would mean “evil.” Due to a conspiracy, Son Goku and his friends are turned into children. To set things right, they head to a new world! It is a great adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world.
Because Son Goku has to cope with his small size, he once again uses the “Magic Staff” to fight, something that has not been seen in a long time. I came up with the story and the settings, as well as a lot of the designs. I’m currently working hard, harder than usual! Things will develop that will solve the mysteries of the Dragon Ball world. I hope you enjoy these battles that are different from usual, adorable and powerful!
