Kapanlagi.com - Nickelodeon is once again holding its annual award event in 2025, the Kids’ Choice Awards. This event serves as a platform for children who are loyal viewers of the television station airing the cartoon SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS and the general audience to vote for their favorite actors, actresses, singers, songs, movies, and programs.

The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards was first broadcast in 1987. One of the unique features of this award event is the green slime. Not only winners but anyone who steps on stage is at risk of being doused with the substance.

According to the Kids’ Choice Awards voting page, there are 35 nomination categories displayed there. These categories include "Favorite Movie Actress", "Favorite Song", and "Favorite Global Music Star". DRAGON BALL DAIMA is the only Japanese animated title competing in the "Favorite Cartoon" category.

1. Not the Only Popular Animated Show Nominated

In addition to DRAGON BALL DAIMA, other popular animated shows are also listed as nominees for the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards. The two titles included are the movie SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 3 for "Favorite Movie" and TRANSFORMERS ONE in "Favorite Animated Movie".

Beyond the nomination as the most popular movie, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 3 also has the chance to win in the category of "Favorite Male Animated Voice from a Movie" for Ben Schwartz and Keanu Reeves. Likewise, Jim Carrey for his role as Dr. Robotnik has been nominated for "Favorite Villain" and "Favorite Movie Actor".

Meanwhile, Chris Hemsworth, who is one of the stars of TRANSFORMERS ONE, will also compete in the nomination for "Favorite Male Animated Voice from a Movie". A similar category for female voice actors also includes Scarlett Johansson as a contender for her role as Elita-1 in the same film.

2. Gaining Huge Public Enthusiasm

At the New York Con held last year, the DRAGON BALL DAIMA panel received a warm and emotional response from fans of the DRAGON BALL series. The animation was met with cheers and excitement following the departure of its creator and mangaka, Akira Toriyama, on March 1, 2024.

The presence of DRAGON BALL DAIMA fills the void in the hearts of all fans of the anime creator's works. According to Anime News Network, many fans flocked to the New York Con on the 40th anniversary of DRAGON BALL to witness one of Akira Toriyama's last contributions to the epic Saiyan saga, namely the latest chapter of the anime.

Toei Animation previously announced at the Comic Con that Akira Toriyama had contributed the story and character designs for DRAGON BALL DAIMA. Longtime fans who have faithfully followed the journey of the DRAGON BALL animated series can once again see how Goku looks in his childhood in a new version with Super Saiyan powers.

3. Broadcast of the Final Episode of DRAGON BALL DAIMA

The final episode of DRAGON BALL DAIMA aired on February 28, 2025, in the evening Japan time on Fuji TV. This marks the end of the latest chapter of the legendary franchise created by Akira Toriyama.

Through the broadcast of the final episode of DRAGON BALL DAIMA, fans considered the moment very meaningful as the airing past midnight coincided with the one-year anniversary of the creator's passing. They flooded social media with various heartfelt expressions of gratitude to Akira Toriyama for the final legacy he provided for the legendary series that opened the door for many to love anime and manga.

DRAGON BALL DAIMA is likely to be the last title in the DRAGON BALL story that received direct creative input from the mangaka regarding story development, character design, and background details, including vehicles and creatures that appear. This latest chapter is the first in the franchise to use a late-night anime format, presenting new adventures of Goku and his friends to uncover the conspiracy behind their altered appearances.
