The latest episode of the TV anime Dragon Ball DAIMA aired on February 14 on Fuji TV, and it immediately sparked discussions online. Episode 18 featured Goku transforming into Super Saiyan 4 to battle King Gomah, leading to "Super Saiyan 4" trending on X.

Fans took to social media, expressing their excitement and disbelief:

"Dragon Ball DAIMA is insane! Seeing Super Saiyan 4 in the Reiwa era?!"

This entirely new anime series was written by Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama, who was deeply involved in its production, including the story, character designs, and various settings such as vehicles, monsters, and background characters.

The story follows Goku and his friends, who have been mysteriously shrunk due to a conspiracy. To resolve the situation, they embark on an adventure through an unknown, mystical world.

Dragon Ball was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump for over ten years, starting in 1984. It remains one of Japan's most iconic manga series, boasting over 260 million copies sold worldwide. Even after the manga concluded, its legacy continues through TV anime, films, games, and various other media adaptations.

In 2013, the Dragon Ball movie series returned after 17 years, achieving massive box office success. In 2015, the Toriyama-original series Dragon Ball Super began airing, followed by the 2022 release of Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero.
