Goku Super Saiyan 4 is Canon in Dragon Ball Daima!
Episode 18 of Dragon Ball Daima has confirmed what many fans had speculated: Super Saiyan 4 is now officially canon in the main Dragon Ball storyline. But how was this incredible return possible? It all comes down to the key role played by Neva, the mysterious Namekian who has been an enigma since his introduction.
Goku’s "Awakening" Thanks to Neva
The episode title, "Awakening," was no coincidence. Neva, who had remained in the shadows until now, empowered Goku in an unprecedented way. Thanks to his intervention, Goku experienced a surge in power that unlocked Super Saiyan 4, a transformation many believed to be exclusive to Dragon Ball GT.
But this isn't just the same transformation we saw before—Super Saiyan 4 in Dragon Ball Daima has a brand-new backstory. It’s not just an evolution of Saiyan power; it is a true awakening of Goku’s most primal and powerful instinct, influenced by Neva’s energy.
Neva Made It Happen!
Neva used his mysterious power to unlock a hidden state within Goku. This "awakening" not only increased his strength but also connected him to an ancient power that Saiyans have carried dormant for generations.
During this process, it was revealed that Super Saiyan 4 is not merely an alternate transformation but a latent power within the purest Saiyans, something that had never before been activated in the main Dragon Ball timeline.
What Does This Mean for the Story?
Now that Super Saiyan 4 is part of the official canon, endless possibilities arise:
Could Vegeta or Broly access this power using the same technique?
Is a fusion between Goku and Vegeta possible in this form?
Could this be the true power needed to face Gomah and the upcoming threats in the future, after Super Super Hero?
