Dragon Ball Daima has kept fans engaged with intriguing developments that both innovate and honor the series’ rich history. Instead of disregarding the foundational elements laid out by Akira Toriyama, this latest installment seeks to deepen the existing lore, making it even more compelling. A highlight from the series is Vegeta finally attaining the long-desired Super Saiyan 3 transformation, representing a pivotal moment in the ongoing expansion of the franchise’s narrative.
The Impact of Buu’s Retcon in Dragon Ball Daima
One of the most noteworthy changes introduced in Dragon Ball Daima is the retcon of Buu, a move that has had significant repercussions throughout the series. This alteration birthed two new iterations of the classic antagonist: Majin Kuu and Majin Duu. While Majin Kuu has subverted expectations, Majin Duu has proven to be an imposing presence in the current arc. The clues and developments presented over the past twelve episodes, coupled with Majin Kuu’s high intelligence and Majin Duu’s sheer power, hint that an even greater threat lurks on the horizon for the Z Fighters.
The Potential Fusion of Majin Kuu and Majin Duu
Why the Fusion Makes Sense
In Episode #12, titled “True Strength,”fans witnessed Majin Duu taking on the Tamagami Number #1, known to be one of the most powerful characters introduced in Dragon Ball Daima thus far. Created by Arinsu as a controlled replica of Majin Buu, Majin Duu exhibited behaviors reminiscent of the original Buu, leading to a confrontation that showcased his formidable capabilities. His destructive tendencies were on full display when he threw a fit over chocolate, yet he ultimately prevailed against the Tamagami from the First Demon World, who was protecting a Dragon Ball.
This encounter underlines Majin Duu’s retention of immeasurable strength similar to the original Majin Buu, emphasized by the fact that it required Vegeta’s Super Saiyan 3 form to defeat the Tamagami. Conversely, while Majin Kuu was initially viewed skeptically, he demonstrated his worth in the latest episode. After Majin Duu’s victory, a new challenge emerged: a formidable test of intellect.
The Tamagami’s challenge involved solving complex math problems, leaving Majin Duu in a state of confusion. However, Majin Kuu’s quick thinking allowed him to provide the correct solutions, exemplifying his impressive intellect. With the Z Fighters currently devoid of strong adversaries, and both Goku and Vegeta eager for the next confrontation, a potential fusion between Majin Duu and Majin Kuu emerges as an ideal candidate for a new villain. This fusion could introduce a significant threat to the Z Saiyans, elevating the stakes in Dragon Ball Daima.
Hints of Fusion in Recent Episodes
While the idea of Majin Kuu and Majin Duu merging might seem far-fetched, recent episodes have provided subtle clues suggesting that such a fusion is feasible. In Episode #4, Goku and his companions came across various medicinal bugs that offered unique effects. The most remarkable of these were the Join Bugs, which, as explained by a shopkeeper, have the ability to merge different beings into a singular, more potent warrior.
If Majin Duu finds himself unable to overpower Goku or Vegeta—especially since both can transform into Super Saiyan 3—it’s conceivable that a fusion with Majin Kuu could take place. By combining Duu’s brute strength and Kuu’s sagacity, Dragon Ball Daima could introduce a formidable new antagonist capable of challenging Goku and Vegeta to unprecedented levels. While there is debate about whether villains can access the Join Bugs, the latent attributes of Majin Duu and Kuu suggest multiple avenues toward transformation.
The Inevitable Fusion in Daima
The possibility of Majin Kuu and Majin Duu merging largely depends on when Arinsu or Kuu will realize the potential of utilizing their world’s Join Bugs. Should the Join Bugs fail to facilitate a fusion, there’s still the chance that Majin Duu could inherit the original Majin Buu’s notorious power to transmute others into chocolate, thereby absorbing their strength. As Duu increasingly mirrors Buu in abilities, mastering these inherited techniques seems inevitable.
Furthermore, the participation of Join Bugs might also extend to giving Goku and Vegeta a chance to fuse themselves in order to counter the imminent threat posed by the fused entity of Duu and Kuu. This scenario paves the way for the emergence of Dragon Ball Daima’s next major antagonist—a synthesis of Duu and Kuu—pushing the heroes to further extremes and potentially leading to a landmark new fusion that could leave an indelible mark on Toriyama’s legacy.
