The finale of *Dragon Ball Daima* showcases an intense battle between Gomah and Goku, who unveils a new form. Fans were eagerly awaiting this episode, hoping it would shed light on the existence of Super Saiyan 4. So, how does the finale of *Dragon Ball Daima* address the absence of Super Saiyan 4 in *Dragon Ball Super*?

What Happens With Super Saiyan 4 in Dragon Ball Daima's Finale?

In episode 19 of the latest *Dragon Ball* series, 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 transformation. It's up to Goku to step in, utilizing the power bestowed by Neva in the previous episode, which he later dubs "Super Saiyan 4."

With this form, Goku fiercely battles Gomah, managing to hold his own. He unleashes his iconic Kamehameha, blasting a hole through Gomah and the Demon Realm, paving the way for Piccolo to attack. Although Piccolo can't land all the necessary blows, Majin Kuu finishes the job, bringing down Gomah and liberating the Demon Realm from his tyranny.

At this juncture, it seemed like *Dragon Ball Daima* might explain Super Saiyan 4 as being exclusive to the Demon Realm or something only Neva could unlock. However, the series takes a different route. Goku casually tells Vegeta that he achieved this new form through training after defeating Buu, with no mention of any mind-wipe. This leaves the canonical status of *Dragon Ball Daima* ambiguous.

Is Dragon Ball Daima Canon to Super?

The introduction of Super Saiyan 4 in *Daima* sparks numerous questions about its place within the *Dragon Ball* canon. It's hard to believe Goku wouldn't have used such a powerful form against Beerus at the beginning of *Dragon Ball Super*, especially when Earth's fate hung in the balance. Even if Goku somehow forgot, Vegeta, always eager to surpass his rival, would surely remember.

However, a post-credits scene in the *Dragon Ball Daima* finale offers a potential explanation. It reveals that the Demon Realm contains two more Evil Third Eyes. Should the series return for another season, and these items end up in the wrong hands, there's a possibility for Super Saiyan 4 to reappear, and for Goku to lose it somehow. This is speculative, but without such a development, *Dragon Ball* risks creating a significant plot hole that could fuel endless debates online.

Thus, *Dragon Ball Daima*'s finale addresses Goku's non-use of Super Saiyan 4 in *Dragon Ball Super* by leaving the door open for future explanations. For more on the series, check out the intro song of the anime.
