Dragon Ball Daima is one of the most awaited anime of fall 2024, whose first episode dropped on Friday, October 11, 2024. As soon as Dragon Ball Daima’s first episode aired on Crunchyroll and Netflix, fans started theorizing about the upcoming events in the show. Even though the series aired a few days back, fans filled the internet with the theories. One of them is Neva, who will be the show’s final villain.
Introduced as the only Namekian from the Demon Realm and the creator of the Dragon Ball of that world, Neva holds world destruction power. In any way, he did not appear like a threat or an evil person seeking to rule. However, appearance does not always justify the character’s nature. For example, Margin Buu was introduced like a pink balloon but later destroyed many cities and killed millions of people. Moreover, the first episode of Dragon Ball Daima focuses on the Margin Buu, making the theory of Neva being the villain much truer.
Introduction To Dragon Ball Daima
Dragon Ball Daima is the latest installment in the Dragon Ball franchise and was Akira Toriyama’s last project before passing on March 1, 2024. The show introduced several new characters in its first episode, with one of them being Namekian, Neva. By far, only a handful of Namekian existed in Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Super, and everything in between, and adding another to the list right after the start of Dragon Ball Daima is too big of a step. A new Namekian entered the show, and looking at Toriyama’s previous works, Nave has more things on his plate than anyone could predict. He may appear senile and unthreatening, but Dragon Ball Daima, are viewers are onto him and think that the old geezer has the potential to be the main antagonist.
Unlike any characters from the Dragon Ball franchise, Nave has a unique ability to collect Dragon Balls without moving. He was the only one known to do it, while others were required to search the Dragon Ball from place to place. Further, Nave can increase the time, making it easy to use the ball.
King Gomah And Degesu Brought Nave With Them To Earth
Dragon Ball Daima started with a recap of the events of the original series of this legendary franchise but also introduced the new characters, including King Gomah, the new king of Demon Realm, and two siblings of Supreme Kai, Degesu and Arinsu, who are serving them. As the series progresses, Degesu brings up the topic of Gomah being the new king of Demon Realm after the death of Dabura. He could rule this realm without having to fear. But Gomah agreed — he saw the incredible powers of Goku and his friends who defeated Buu.
With fear that Goku and his friends may try to capture the Demon Realm in the future, Gomah decided to use Earth’s Dragon Ball to make them an infant. As they were running toward the Earth, the new king decided to bring Neva, the Namekian from Demon Realm who created Dragon Ball. He even created their guardians: three creatures known as the Tamagamis. Not much information regarding them is available, but it is said that the Demon Realm has never been used due to the presence of their guardians. It displays the power of Neva, the creator of Dragon Ball of Demon Realm. Even though, he may appear old but not lack abilities. After arriving on Earth, Neva used his ability to gather the Dragon Balls in one location and extend its time.
Why Did Fans Consider Neva The Villian Of Dragon Ball Daima?
Dragon Ball Daima is one of the most talked about anime, and for good reason. The show introduced many characters, including Neva, the Namekian of Demon Realm. Like many other Namekians, he was the creator of the Dragon Balls of his world and lived for centuries. He even created their guardians: three creatures known as the Tamagamis to protect balls from others. However, these guardians are so powerful that no one in the Demon Realm has used Dragon Balls before, not even Dabura, the previous Demon King. Gomah, the new Demon King wants to use Earth’s Dragon Balls to eliminate the possibility of Goku and his friends attacking Demon Realm. He decided to use them to make people who fought Buu and their friends into infants.
Due to Neva’s knowledge of Dragon Balls and his ability to gather and increase the time, Gomah asked him to join them on the trip to Earth. After arriving on Earth, Gomah ordered Neva to gather a Dragon Ball. To the fan’s surprise, he gathers all seven Dragon Balls without sweating, plus increases its time. That makes it easy for the new Demon King to use Dragon Balls. His unique abilities, which haven’t been seen in any character, make him the first choice of being the villain of Dragon Ball Daima. It is even possible for him to turn back on the new Demon King and his friends. Like others, he wants to conquer the world.
