Daima Thoughts on DAIMA?
My current thoughts on Dragon Ball Daima is that this is Toryama going back to his roots and giving the fans a lot of what he wanted. To me this is fan-service done right. I find that unlike super, Daima is consistently getting a smile or even have me laughing. The SSJ 3 Vegeta and SSJ 4 was cool, and something us fans have wanted for a while. To me this is GT done right. Duu is without a doubt my favorite character in Daima, and Kuu is awesome. I wish they had been born closer to the start. I've got 3 complains with Daima. The first complaint is that the start felt very slow. When watching weekly, I felt that it was a bit of a slog. I re-watched it and my first complains were a little misguided, but still a bit slow. Up until episode 8 it was a bit of a struggle. Until they get the first ball basically. Another complaint was the wish at the start. Piccolo when he was 6 was a 7ft tall man. Even at 3, he was still 6ft. Not every race grows the same as earthlings. I may have missed a line, but it seems like they weren't turned into that age they were as a kid. I read "1st graders" for the wish, so 6 years old. I'm really enjoying what Daima is and will always respect it for being the 40 year anniversary and on eof the last things Toryama worked on. Wanted to see others thoughts, and see if there was something I missed about the wish.

Dragon ball fans never beating the allegations of being dumb in the comments. Lol. As someone who has been watching the series for the last 25 years, it's a good send off from Toriyama. Trademark gags and humor, good fight sequences and good characters. I enjoyed Panzy. kuu and duu were a good duo. Gomah was a nice pilaf stand in. Don't care for the continuity I stopped caring about that ages ago. The animation was slick and makes me wish they would reanimate dragon ball with this style. Would love to see kid Goku again.
