On Wednesday, September 4, 2024, Dragon Ball DAIMA unveiled its updated new visual. While Goku (mini), Supreme Kai (mini), and Glorio remained the same, the anime finally unveiled the identity of the Masked Majin. The character's real name is Panzy.

The new key visual also shows two characters peeking over at Goku and company from the edge of the visual. While one of the characters is Gomah, the other character's identity is yet to be revealed.

Another difference in the visual is that the first visual's catchphrase said, "Welcome to the Great Adventure!" Meanwhile, the catchphrase in the new visual says, "Welcome to the Demon Realm!!" With that, the anime has revealed that the events in the series will take place in the "Demon Realm."

Dragon Ball DAIMA will premiere on Friday, October 11, at 11:40 PM JST.

The main trailer for the anime starts with a mysterious spell. Soon after, Goku and his friends can be seen turned into children. Hence, Goku (mini) and Supreme Kai (mini) partake in an exciting adventure in the Demon Realm alongside new characters Panzy and Glorio to possibly turn everything back to normal.

The trailer also revealed some new characters who are being shown for the first time. The most notable ones are the man who looks like Supreme Kai and the woman who seems to be conspiring against the world with a mysterious smile.
