Dragon Ball Daima Introduces New Characters

Dragon Ball Daima has given anime fans a closer look at its new characters before the anime's October premiere.

Dragon Ball Daima has already revealed quite a few elements of its plot since it was first introduced to shonen fans. Son Goku and the Z-Fighters have been shown in numerous trailers much younger than they normally appear thanks to a conspiracy involving the Dragon Balls as mysterious figures watch on in the background. Alongside a new trailer released, Toei Animation has featured some of the big new characters that will be a part of the anime series. Joining Kaoishin on a universe hopping mission, the latest trailer and promotional material shows at least one character that Goku will be fighting.

One character that is confirmed for the upcoming anime is the "Masked Majin". Considering that the likes of Majin Buu and Majin Vegeta helped end the original Dragon Ball Z series, it seems likely that this shady character will have some form of connection to the pink powerhouse and Babidi. While not considered canon, the Dragon Ball Heroes series spent quite a lot of time focusing on demons and Majin as the Time Patrol would routinely take on dark threats from the underworld. It will be interesting to see what connections the like of the Masked Majin, Glorio, and Gomah have to the Z-Fighters' past.
