Others claimed its ending was abrupt and unsatisfying.
The loudest criticism had to do with the anime’sunwillingness to cooperate with other canon works.
In the grand scheme ofDragon Ball’s ever-expanding narrative,it doesn’t really matter.
At its heart,the series is about far-off adventures and a growing sense of awe and wonder.
Sometimes an evil space tyrant responsible for destroying half the universe needs to be put down.
Other times, Goku needs to send an anthropomorphic rabbit to the moon.
It never mattered, because that wasn’t the point,and that doesn’t change withDaima.
Was Dragon Ball Daima a Good Anime Series?
Hopefully fans won’t lose sight of that in future entries.
Dragon Ball DAIMA is the fifth overall series in the action-adventure anime franchise.
The series was announced at NYCC 2023, with creator Akira Toriyama returning to handle DAIMA’s run.
