The upcoming most anticipated project of theDragon Balluniverse,Dragon Ball DAIMA, has recently dropped a new trailer, and it is getting a lot of love from fans. The exciting trailer features a lot of new information about the upcoming story and its characters, as the series is only a month away from its release, which is scheduled for October.
While this trailer has re-ignited the eagerness of the fans forDragon BallDAIMA, it has also included multiple references that the series has made from the original narrative that was created by Akira Toriyama years ago. One of these references is the Demon Realm, which has been part of the series since it was first created.
Demon Realm was an interesting concept for a long time, but as the story progressed, it lost its importance, and fans eventually forgot about it. However, withDragon Ball DAIMAhinting at the Demon Realm, there is a chance that these old concepts from the series could make a return to the franchise.
The Demon Realm inDragon BallExplained
The Demon Realm is a dark and shadowy world that is located on the reverse side of the universe. It is the lower half of the living world, not to be confused with hell. The realm is filled with magic, and it was created by the wizards that were trapped inside it, and it harbors almost all of the demon race of theDragon Ballworld.

It was first introduced during the Fortuneteller Baba Saga, with Shula being the main antagonist of the narrative. The Demon Realm has also given rise to many other villains of theDragon Balluniverse, including Dabura, Janemba, Fu, Demigra, etc. Thus, it was an extremely crucial element of theDragon Balluniverse for the longest time.
However, as the narrative broadened with the inclusion of other universes and their antagonists, theDemon Realm lost its importancein the story. While it is still mentioned here and there in video games and fan fiction, the main narrative doesn’t really focus much on the evil concept.
