A promotional video for Dragon Ball Daima has created significant excitement among fans by showcasing a modern remake of the classic anime series. This video, uploaded by user Piccolo Damayonnaiz on Twitter, uses official footage from Toei Animation, combining scenes from the film and a remixed soundtrack.
This nearly five-minute compilation features some of the most iconic battles from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z.
To create this, the video utilizes scenes from the recent release “Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero” and the initial episodes of “Dragon Ball Daima”.
Notable scenes featured in this promotional video include Goku’s iconic battle against the Red Ribbon Army during his early days. It also highlights the resurrection of the Red Ribbon Army during the Cell Arc. A famous connection is made when Gohan fights Perfect Cell, showcasing the symbolic support from his father.
The video transitions into the initial scenes of Dragon Ball Daima, starting with a recap of the Majin Buu saga. It concludes with Goku’s dramatic fight against Kid Buu using the Genkidama and raising his hand towards the sky.
Despite the enthusiasm generated by Dragon Ball Daima, many fans have expressed their desire for a complete remake of the original Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z series, without the filler episodes that were present in Dragon Ball Z Kai. This desire has intensified, particularly given the uncertainty surrounding the future of the series following the passing of creator Akira Toriyama.
The most surprising aspect is that Chikashi Kubota, the producer, has shown interest in remaking Dragon Ball since the release of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero in 2022, which has left fans increasingly hopeful.
A fan commented: “This is a perfect storyline from the Red Patrol to the Majin Buu arc, and it’s a brilliant idea to remake Dragon Ball as it should be.”
“While I am very excited, if they are going to use the popularity of Daima as a foundation to create a complete remake from the original, then how?” another fan added.
Of course, there are also dissenting voices regarding the idea of remaking the Dragon Ball anime. One person expressed: “No, Dragon Ball as it is already exists. If they remake it, many parts will be censored. Toei will not get past the criticism from the fans.”
“The animation of Dragon Ball has always been good; they just need to remake Z and Super. They should follow The Path to Power if they intend to remake the original.” another opinion countered.
