Episode 8 of Dragon Ball Z redefined the classic events of the franchise, especially with Majin Buu . In addition to presenting an intense battle between Goku and Tamagami , the episode showed the true origin of the villain Majin Buu, going beyond what we know in Dragon Ball Z.
Previously, it was believed that Majin Buu was created by Bibidi , an evil alien wizard and father of the well-known Babidi . However, in 2014, Akira Toriyama clarified in Saikyo Jump that Bibidi merely awakened Majin Buu, who had actually existed "since time immemorial." Now, Dragon Ball Z: Daima follows suit by revealing who truly created the feared villain.
Marba: The Original Creator of Majin Buu
In episode 8, it is revealed that Marba , a Majin-type witch, is responsible for creating the villain Majin Buu . Dr. Arinsu, a cunning scientist, discovers this information when seeking Marba's help in her quest to become the next ruler of the Demon Realm. Reluctantly, Marba admits her involvement, as Majin Buu's creation resulted in mass destruction and countless deaths. Despite this, she agrees to create another Buu, this time under Arinsu's command.
Additionally, Arinsu collected a sample of Majin Buu during Vegeta's explosive sacrifice, using it for her experiments. Although Buu's evil side has faded since his separation, the scientist seeks to recreate the villain's most dangerous version: Kid Buu .
A new Majin Buu in Dragon Ball Daima?
Dragon Ball Daima may be hinting at a new version of Majin Buu, possibly an alternative to Kid Buu . This approach wouldn't be unprecedented, considering the return of other classic villains like Cell Max and Golden Frieza.
