This article includes anime spoilers “Dragon Ball Daima”. Discretion to the reader is recommended.
Since Son Goku met Bulma, the franchise of “Dragon Ball”It has been synonymous with epic fights and levels of power that challenge logic. But with “Dragon Ball Daima“The thing is getting out of control, and not in a good way. The most recent controversy came directly from social networks, where fans soon complained about how absurd the issue of power levels has become in this new installment.
In “Dragon Ball Daima”, the Z Warriors were transformed into children thanks to a dark desire, which clearly made them less strong. But, was it really necessary to reach the point where Vegeta almost dies from the shot of a simple soldier? This was what happened in episode 15. Many already seemed an insult considering the feats that these characters have achieved in the past.
To understand criticism, you have to remember what the thing was like in the old days. In the original “Dragon Ball”, Goku Niño and Pícoro could already destroy entire cities with a single attack, and that had quite low levels of power (about 100 units). Later, in “Dragon Ball Z”, the scale became ridiculous, with characters that easily reached millions and could destroy planets without sweating.
Now in “Dragon Ball Daima” (Let us remember is a prequel to “Dragon Ball Super”, so the Super Saiyan God still does not exist)Goku and Vegeta have shown that they can still be transformed even in Super Saiyajin 3, coming to defeat two of the Tamagami, some enemies that are supposed to be stronger than Dabura, the former demon king who was on par with the Super Saiyan 2 of They are Gohan. So how are it that they are now “scared” by a handful of soldiers?
In addition, it was mentioned that Vegeta already destroyed planets when his level of power was around 18,000 units, which raised the following question: was it necessary to make them extremely weak for the benefit of the plot? It seems that the creators are trying to bring back that sensation of vulnerability that existed in the original dragon ball, but this only implies that the original canon will continue unnecessarily. Did this extreme change need just to create tension in the plot?
