The finale of *Dragon Ball Daima* delivers an exhilarating showdown between Gomah and Goku, where Goku unveils a new transformation. Many fans were eagerly anticipating this episode to shed light on the existence of Super Saiyan 4, especially its absence in *Dragon Ball Super*. Here's how *Dragon Ball Daima*'s finale addresses the absence of Super Saiyan 4 in *Super*.
In episode 19 of *Dragon Ball Daima*, the Z Fighters revert to their adult forms thanks to Glorio's wish. Vegeta attempts to defeat Gomah solo but fails, even with his Super Saiyan 3 power. Goku then steps in, utilizing the strength bestowed by Neva from the previous episode, which he later identifies as "Super Saiyan 4."
With this new form, Goku fiercely battles Gomah, managing to hold his own. He employs his signature Kamehameha to blast a hole through Gomah and the entire Demon Realm, paving the way for Piccolo to strike at Gomah's eye. Although Piccolo can't finish the job, Majin Kuu delivers the final blows, ultimately defeating Gomah and liberating the Demon Realm.
As the episode progresses, it seems poised to clarify that Super Saiyan 4 might be exclusive to the Demon Realm or unlockable only by Neva. However, the series takes a different turn. Goku tells Vegeta that he achieved this new form simply through training after defeating Buu, with no mention of any mind-wipe. This leaves the canonical status of *Dragon Ball Daima* ambiguous.
The emergence of Super Saiyan 4 in *Daima* sparks numerous questions about its place within the *Dragon Ball* canon. Given its power, it's puzzling that Goku didn't use it against Beerus in *Super*, particularly with Earth's fate on the line. While it's conceivable that Goku might have forgotten about it, Vegeta's frustration at being outdone again suggests otherwise.
However, a post-credits scene in *Dragon Ball Daima*'s finale hints at a potential explanation. It reveals the existence of two more Evil Third Eyes in the Demon Realm. If the series continues and these objects end up in the wrong hands, it could set the stage for Super Saiyan 4's return and perhaps its subsequent loss by Goku. While this is speculative, without such a development, *Dragon Ball* risks creating a significant plot hole that could fuel endless debates among fans.
Thus, *Dragon Ball Daima*'s finale explains Goku's non-use of Super Saiyan 4 in *Super* by leaving room for future plot developments. For more on the series, check out the intro song of the anime. *Dragon Ball Daima* is currently streaming on Crunchyroll.
