A fan animation recently tookDragon BallDaima’snew way of fusing andcreated a brand new character. The concept itself may serve as a prediction of what’s to come next inDragon Ball Daima. In just a short run time, the animation delivers a display of newly combined power when facing off against the strongest enemies inDragon Ball Daimayet.
Brought to life byLate-Shift Studios, the animation blends two ofDragon Ball’sbest new duos and offers a glimpse into their combined power. Goku and Shin combine into a powerful form thattakes the power of the Saiyans and the divinity of the Kai’s, creating a terrifying force for anyone to stand against. Late-Shift Studios paid close attention to the opposite personalities of Goku and Shin and crafted a character design that perfectly fits both of them.

Goku And Shin’s Fusion Looks Like A Direct Call Back To Another Villain
A Fusion Between Goku And Shin Would Be Nothing Less Than Extraordinary
The animationtakes place within the Demon Realm ofDragon Ball Daima. In the video, Goku and Shin consume the Join Bugs, which are essentiallythe Demon Realm’s version of the Potara earrings, and are fused into one being. Before the two are fused together, Late-Shift Studios takes a moment to capture Goku and Shin’s personalities. While Shin takes the Join Bug with calm grace, Goku takes it and has a very expressive and honest reaction, clearly showing his dissatisfaction with it.
The new form takes Goku’s likeness and mixes it with Shin, creating a character reminiscent of Goku Black and Zamasu’s fusion inDragon Ball Super. He confidently faces off with the three Tamagamis, one of which hurls a massive hammer at him.The next moment becomes a spectacle of Goku and Shin’s combined poweras they completely destroy the weapon with a single touch. The video then ends with a stylish split screen between the Tamagamis and a fused Goku and Shin.
Is A Divine Fusion In The Future Of Dragon Ball Daima Possible?
A Fusion With The Supreme Kai May Create An Entirely New Level Of Power To Achieve
The introduction of Join Bugs as a new fusion mechanic suggests thatthere will be a new fusion or two inDragon Ball Daima. However, many fans assumed that the fusion would be between Goku and Vegeta, offering a third combination separate fromGogeta or Vegito. While that remains likely to be the case, it is interesting to consider a different path that could have deeper implications for the series. If Goku and Shin were to fuse and create a new divine and powerful being, it could disrupt the current hierarchy and open the door to similarly formidable forces.
Zamasu has already proved that even the divine beings in the universe are susceptible to dark impulses and could start down a dark path. A fusion between Goku and Shincould potentially act as an invitation for others to pursue similar powers, especially since Glinds are native to the Demon Realm along with the Join Bugs. The effect of a fusion between Goku and Shin could potentially change the future ofDragon Balland serve as a gateway for future enemies down the line.
