‘Dragon Ball: Daima’ Releases Climax Trailer Ahead of Final Arc

The latest anime in the Dragon Ball universe, ‘Dragon Ball Daima,’ just gave us a big treat with a brand-new trailer that’s got everyone talking. It’s the climax trailer, and it’s setting the stage for the show’s final arc. With only a few episodes left, this sneak peek promises an explosive end to Goku’s newest adventure.
‘Dragon Ball Daima’ kicked off in October 2024, bringing a fresh story to the franchise. Created by the legendary Akira Toriyama, who sadly passed away earlier this year, the series follows Goku and his friends after a mysterious conspiracy shrinks them into kid-sized versions of themselves. To fix things, they head to the Demon Realm, a strange and dangerous place packed with new foes. The show’s been a hit, blending action with that classic Dragon Ball humor we all love.
Now, the climax trailer shows things are about to get wild. The big bad, Supreme Demon King Gomah, steps up with a power boost from the Evil Third Eye, turning him into a giant threat. Goku, Vegeta, and the crew are teaming up to take him down, and it looks intense. One of the coolest moments? Goku finally goes Super Saiyan 3, a form we haven’t seen him use in this series until now. It’s a big deal, and I can’t wait to see how it plays out.
The trailer also confirms the end is close. Episode 20, the last one, airs on February 28, 2025. That’s right—this adventure wraps up with just 20 episodes, making it one of the shorter Dragon Ball series. It started with episode 17 airing recently, so we’ve only got three more to go after that. Crunchyroll streams it every Friday, with Netflix following a week later.
What’s neat about ‘Dragon Ball Daima’ is how it fits into the bigger picture. It’s set after the Majin Buu saga from ‘Dragon Ball Z,’ but before Goku starts chasing god-level power in ‘Dragon Ball Super.’ This timing lets the show explore new corners of the universe, like the Demon Realm, without messing with the main storyline too much. Toriyama was hands-on with the plot and designs, so it’s got his special touch all over it.
The action in the trailer looks top-notch, with Goku and his pals—Vegeta, Piccolo, and even some new faces like Glorio—throwing everything they’ve got at Gomah. Vegeta’s already shown off Super Saiyan 3 earlier, and now Goku’s joining the party. There’s even a hint of Super Saiyan 4 making a comeback, which has me buzzing with excitement. That form was a fan favorite from ‘Dragon Ball GT,’ and seeing it here feels like a nod to longtime viewers.
This series has been a fun ride, mixing big fights with a lighter vibe compared to the heavy stakes of ‘Dragon Ball Super.’ The Demon Realm adds a fresh twist, and characters like Gomah bring new challenges. Sure, some folks have said the pacing felt off at times, but the climax looks like it’s ready to deliver. I think it’s going to tie everything together nicely.
With Toriyama’s passing, ‘Dragon Ball Daima’ feels extra special—it’s his last big project for the franchise. The team at Toei Animation has kept his vision alive, and this trailer proves they’re going all out for the finish. Whether you’ve been watching since the start or just jumping in, these final episodes are shaping up to be a must-see. Mark your calendars for February 28—Goku’s got one last battle to win!
