Difference Between Ki and Magic

Important points

• Most of the people in the Demon Realm used magic rather than ki. Not like people from outside
• Both ki and magic can power similar abilities. as well as psychic powers It's basically just different energy sources.
• Mastery of one power source does not guarantee mastery of another, as seen in Babidi and the Z Fighters.

WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Dragon Ball Daima Episode 5, “Panzy,” now streaming on Crunchyroll.

Just when you thought you had it sorted. dragon ballElectrical system works Dragon Ball Daima came in and introduced an entirely new system: Magic, to be precise. Magic has always been a part of it. dragon ballBut it is used only sparingly. An example of magic in the series is Babidi, the sorcerer who revives Majin Buu, who uses magic to turn evil-minded people into his slaves. The Dragon Balls themselves are also magical and were created using Namekian magic.

But it is. Dragon Ball Daima It reveals the people living in the demon realm where most of the show takes place. Most of them use magic instead. Giving it a bigger role than it ever had in the series. And it's not just that they can't. use ki; It was clearly a citizen of the Demon Realm. There are some rare exceptions. I don't even know what ki is. is–

Generally, people from the Demon Realm only used magic.

However, the Demon Realm citizens still had Ki.

As described by Panzy in Dragon Ball Daima Chapter 5 “Pansy” Every Demon Lord can use at least one spell. This was interesting because outside of the demon realm, Not everyone uses ki techniques and must practice before doing so. In fact, aside from the Z Fighters, most humans could go their entire lives without using anything at all.

Currently, while many people from the Demon Realm didn't even know what ki was, But they can still use it if they can learn how. Goku is also able to detect the existence of the Demon Realm. This means that the people and creatures that live there do How many are in the body? It's just that most never learn how to use it. In the same way People from outside the Demon Realm could also use magic if they studied it. Just like Babidi, fortune teller Baba, and Namekian have.

Ki and Magic function similarly.

The same is true of two energy sources that supply power to similar objects.

Think about it: diesel-powered cars and electric-powered cars use different fuel sources. But in the end The main function of fuel is to power and move the vehicle. In the same way It seems that some ki techniques can do the same thing as magic spells. But it just requires a different type of “fuel”.

For example, users of both ki and magic can use their telekinesis. Goku, Cell, and Frieza have all used their telekinesis using ki before, but Panzy, who doesn't even know what ki is, is also able to use telekinesis through magic. Panzy is often misunderstood. that Goku's moves such as Instant Transmission and Kamehameha are magic, meaning that he may have magical abilities that do something similar.

“I still can't believe it. How strong are you? You even used magic… You transform and shoot strange light from your hands,” Pansy said of Goku's Kamehameha.

Another thing is that you can't plug a diesel car into a charging station. And you can't pump gas into an electric car. In the same way You cannot use ki to enhance your magical abilities. And you can't use magic to power up Kamehameha. You'll need to find and use equivalent moves or techniques that do similar things first. But there are also hybrid cars that use both electricity and fossil fuels. and similarly Some have trained themselves to use both ki and magic, such as Glorio and Supreme Kais.

In general, Glind is often adept at using both types of energy sources. Because they had experienced life both inside and outside the demon realm. As mentioned above Namekians use magic to create the Dragon Balls. But they are generally very good at controlling their ki.

however, Dragon Ball Daima There's still a long way to go. Perhaps they dive deeper into the intricacies of magic and reveal certain moves or qualities that make it more distinguishable from ki.

Being a strong magic user does not make you a strong Ki user.

and vice versa

Being an expert at one energy source doesn't mean you'll be good at another. One example of this is Babidi, as the evil sorcerer can use extremely powerful spells. but has not been shown to be able to use any ki techniques to protect himself. On the other end of the spectrum, Goku and the rest of the Z Fighters are great at controlling their ki and using it to fight. But most of them had no experience in using magic at all.

When it comes to ki, people often use physical and mental training to improve its strength and control. That's why you'll always see Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo training, exercising, or meditating to get stronger. For that magic Currently, it is not known how to train to use it better. Whether they need any type of physical training or want to study spells through scrolls or books That's what it is like. Dragon Ball Daima Hopefully it will be revealed soon.

Dragon Ball Daima is now available to watch on Crunchyroll and Netflix. Dragon Ball Daima Episode 10 release date is set for December 13, 2024 at 10:00 AM PT.
