Episode 9 of the anime “Dragon Ball Daima” introduces a new version of Majin Buu, named Majin Kuu, created by the legendary artist Arinsu and his assistant Marba.
However, this new character has not been well-received by the Dragon Ball fanbase, sparking significant discussion online regarding its design and direction of the storyline.
The voice actor shared: “Finally, I have overcome several years of trying to break through. I am very excited to be involved in this character, even though there is much mystery surrounding it. I hope the audience enjoys my performance!”
This episode also features notable points, especially the battle between Mini Goku and Glorio against various ghostly foes, with Goku currently being the primary target in the Quận Quốc area. However, the most discussed aspect online is the design of Majin Kuu, which has received a lot of negative feedback.
Here are some opinions regarding the new character design of Majin Kuu in Dragon Ball Daima:
– It is disappointing that there could be many powerful transformations with this new character, and after its introduction, it feels too familiar. This series seems to be drawing from over 20 years of history.
– The basic design is the weakest in Dragon Ball’s history.
– The character feels unrelated. Even I have a sense of nostalgia more towards previous transformations.
– I was expecting something resembling Majin Buu Cell Max or some type of ‘Blue Buu’.
– I think many fans of Dragon Ball GT might feel a bit sorry for this design.
– The design lacks creativity. The Saibaman base makes it feel like a recycled version of my original design. As for its strength, it surely pales in comparison to Z’s Majin Buu.
– I believe it should have a brighter blue color, and the disappointing part is that Kuu only has a single outfit, lacking many of the Majin traits like antennae or water-like features.
– The design looks like a random combination from Dragon Ball AF from 2010.
Despite the criticisms, some fans believe this design could simply be its initial form and might evolve, bringing unexpected developments in future episodes. Whether this new character can capture the audience’s favor or will remain a significant disappointment is something only time will tell.
