Dragon Ball Daima episode #10 brings fresh developments that breathe new life into this beloved franchise. With the introduction of the true creator of Majin Buu, the series has initiated a significant retcon that reshapes the villain’s narrative. It appears that these alterations, particularly involving Majin Buu, serve to pave the way for a new antagonist who could potentially rival or surpass the iconic villain.
Despite the introduction of the formidable Majin Kuu, the latest episode reveals that this character, while powerful, does not pose a substantial challenge to the Z warriors. This revelation may leave fans somewhat disillusioned; however, the episode cleverly unveils a new and alarming monster, with even Goku acknowledging that it presents a threat they are not yet capable of facing.
The Kraken in Dragon Ball Daima: A Threat Beyond Goku and Vegeta’s Reach
Krakens: The Titans of the Demon Realm’s Second World
The tenth episode, aptly titled “Ocean,”explores Goku and his companions’ arrival in the Second World of the Demon Realm. Glorio notes that the thin air in this realm facilitates flight, but he also addresses Shin’s concerns about the persistent presence of Krakens in the oceans. Panzy heightens the tension by detailing ominous rumors regarding these monstrous beings, claiming they are as colossal as islands and completely resistant to conventional weaponry like bombs.
The newly introduced Kraken quickly establishes itself as a formidable threat, as it attacks Goku’s ship, nearly swallowing Goku and Panzy while they attempt to secure a Dragon Ball. The situation escalates when even Goku shows signs of apprehension towards the Kraken. Following the destruction of the flying ship, Goku senses the presence of Vegeta and his squadron and promptly sets off to locate them.
Upon warning Vegeta and the others about the Kraken, Goku faces ridicule as Vegeta dismissively questions his fear of such a creature. Yet, after witnessing the Kraken firsthand, Vegeta is taken aback by its daunting size, leading Goku to confess that they currently lack the strength to confront it. This acknowledgment is striking, especially considering Goku and Vegeta’s storied histories of overcoming formidable threats in the past. The show’s narrative has laid the groundwork for understanding their present limitations in regards to the Kraken.
Understanding Goku and Vegeta’s Current Limitations Against the Kraken
The story has already downplayed Goku and Vegeta’s abilities by transforming them into children. Coupled with the unique attributes of the Demon Realm’s thin air, it becomes apparent that the warriors are operating at a diminished capacity compared to their Dragon Ball Z days. With smaller physiques and unfamiliar surroundings, both heroes face a challenging adjustment period before regaining their former prowess. This context offers a compelling rationale for Goku’s admission about their inability to combat the Kraken, a behemoth of unprecedented size and strength.
While Goku successfully escapes from the Kraken’s grasp, rescues Panzy, and even defeats a Tamagami, it’s clear he is beginning to adapt to the new challenges posed by their transformations. Yet, his recent statements indicate an awareness that he has not yet reclaimed his full strength. As Goku and Vegeta continue to navigate their evolving circumstances, it’s apparent that they will eventually rejuvenate their original might in Dragon Ball Daima, which may pave the way for overcoming this new adversary more easily in the future.
