Characters

Daiko

A Saiyan raised on Elvaï, Daiko has finally awakened the extraordinary power hidden within him. Now, he crosses the galaxy in search of other Saiyans, hoping to reunite the scattered survivors and build a new future for their people.

Nira

A fearless Saiyan raised on Oreane, Nira is radiant, impulsive, quick to laugh, and always ready for a fight. She knows exactly where she comes from—but the people who raised her are the family she refuses to abandon.

Soren

Once Oreane’s greatest architect, Soren now lives in isolation near the abandoned Grand Tunnel. He speaks only a few words, but remains the man who raised Nira—and the one whose silence she understands least.

Edda

Oreane’s master builder, Edda is precise, commanding, and trusted whenever the city is in danger. Though she appears distant from Nira, every glance suggests that her concern for her never truly disappeared.

Denji

A Namekian warrior and Daiko’s longtime protector, Denji guided him toward the truth about his origins and taught him to control his power. Calm, perceptive, and deeply loyal, he now accompanies Daiko on his search for the scattered Saiyans.

Janemba Plushy

Belongs ONLY to Lio

Ruu

Long before anyone on Oreane can remember, something was left to grow in the dark beneath the planet. It was made by Marba, the Great Witch of the Demon Realm, the same hands that once shaped Majin Buu. How it reached Oreane, no one knows. It slept inside a pulsing cocoon that every guardian believed was the planet’s heart. For generations, it fed on the life of the world above, and the ground shook with its hunger. Then a Saiyan child arrived, and her energy tasted like nothing it had ever known. When Daiko came, it finally had enough to wake. It doesn’t know its own name. It only carries Marba’s mark on its belt: a single letter, M. And it wants one thing. More.

Eska

The Namekian who raised Nira in secret, one of the guardians of King Vegeta’s plan, sent to watch over a Saiyan child on a world that didn’t know what she was. He told her where she came from and taught her to speak without words, mind to mind. But the thing beneath Oreane fed on her energy, and he knew that one day it would cost her the only home she had. One night, without telling anyone, he went down alone into the forbidden tunnel to find a way to quiet its hunger, so she could stay. He never came back, and the grief of the little girl he left behind tore through Oreane in a blast of energy that nearly killed the people sworn to protect her.

Super Nira

She was never meant to be legendary, but when the creature took aim at the two people who raised her, something in Nira snapped. She threw herself between them and the blast, and walked out of the smoke with her hair turned gold, wrapped in a blazing aura of pale yellow fire. Born of anger, not grief, the transformation gave her a power the creature could no longer match: “Don’t you touch them.” She figured out in seconds what Daiko had chased for years, and taught him how to call it: get angry, feel it between the shoulders, and burn. A golden-haired Saiyan with a name only she could have chosen: Super Nira.

Oreane

Daiko II - Nira

The story takes place during the Black Frieza era, after the Tournament of Power, at a time when Goku and Vegeta have already pushed past Super Saiyan Blue to Ultra Instinct and Ultra Ego. Before Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta in Age 737, King Vegeta secretly sent a handful of Saiyan children to distant "deaf worlds" that hide their energy, each one watched over by a Namekian guardian. Daiko, the first of these hidden Saiyans to awaken, has crossed the galaxy to find the others, and his search leads him to Oreane, a world of vertical canyons and cities carved into living rock. There he meets Nira, a Saiyan raised by the guardians Soren and Edda, who already knows exactly what she is and refuses to leave the people she loves. But Oreane is breaking apart: its monuments are collapsing, and deep beneath the planet, something its people have always called "the heart" is feeding on the life of the world above. That heart is a cocoon, and inside it grows Majin Ruu, a creation of Marba, the Great Witch of the Demon Realm who once shaped Majin Buu, and later Kuu and Duu. No one knows how it reached Oreane, and hidden on a deaf world, its power has stayed invisible even to Goku, Vegeta and Frieza. For generations it drained the planet in silence, until Nira's immense energy, and then Daiko's arrival, gave it enough to wake. It doesn't know its own name, and it wants only one thing: more. Six episodes on one planet, and a battle that will force two Saiyans to find a power neither of them knew they carried.
 
Part I told the story of a boy who did not know what he was. Part II is about what he does once he knows.


Daiko

Twenty-eight years old. Saiyan by blood, Elvaï by life.
He arrived on the quiet world of Elvaï as an infant, sealed in a pod that carried his name and nothing else. He was raised by Lyara and Torek, who never asked what he was. He grew up loved, ordinary, and slightly wrong — a boy with a tail on a planet where nobody had one.
Elvaï is a deaf world. Its energy swallows power signatures whole. That is why he was sent there, and why he lived twenty-eight years without ever being found.
What broke him open was not a discovery. It was a death. Grief unlocked something legendary in him, and the thing that came out was not blue, and it was not controlled, and it very nearly did not stop.
He is a decent man carrying an indecent amount of power, and he has had it for about five minutes. He has a mission he believes in completely and a speech he has rehearsed too many times. He is still learning the difference between being right and being persuasive.
"I am Saiyan by blood. I am Elvaï by life. Both are true."


The Mission

Long before the fall of his people, King Vegeta did one quiet, desperate thing.
He put Saiyan children on ships and scattered them across worlds that would hide them — worlds where power goes unheard. He sent volunteers with them. And then he hoped, because hoping was all that was left to him.
Nobody ever went back for them.
Daiko is the first to wake. Somewhere out there are others: some who don't know what they are, some with no one left to teach them, some strong enough to break the world they landed on without ever meaning to.
He intends to find every one of them.


Oreane

A world of vertical canyons and white stone. Cities carved into red rock walls, colonnades suspended over water, bridges that span kilometres of open air, monuments so large the people living on their flanks have forgotten they are living on a building.
It is beautiful, it is old, and it is beginning to come apart.
Cornices fall. The ground moves. Nobody is panicking yet — it happens more than it used to, that's all. People say the heart of the planet turns over in its sleep.


Nira

She is the only Saiyan on Oreane, and she has never once been lonely.
Quick, loud, warm, dangerously funny. She knows everyone in the market by name. She knows which child dropped which toy. When a building gives way, she is already running before anyone has finished shouting.
She has always known what she is — a Namek named Eska told her everything when she was six, and then he died, and she grew up anyway. She was raised by Soren, a great architect who stopped building a long time ago and now answers in one or two words.
So when a stranger with a tail arrives to explain her own history to her, she laughs.
She is not waiting to be rescued. She is not waiting to be told who she is. She has a home, a family, a planet, and no intention of leaving any of it.
The problem is that she has also spent her entire life being the only one.


Part II

He came to recruit her. She wanted to see what he could do first.
What follows is not a recruitment. It is a week on a planet where the ground will not stop moving, where a thing older than the city is doing something underneath it, and where the people who have been holding it all together have been lying for twenty years about why.
Daiko came to Oreane to convince Nira to leave.
By the time he understands what he is asking her to give up, he will have helped carry the pieces of it himself.

DAIKO II - Nira Six episodes. One planet. Everything they were told was wrong.

Finding the story for part 2

Sep 17, 2026

You write. You develop an idea for days. You get to the end and realize you don't actually love it. So you start over. You pull an old note from three weeks ago, a line you wrote at 2am, a world you abandoned. You stitch. You start over again. And then at some point you stop. You close everything. You go outside for an hour, a day, a week. And that's when it comes. On its own. Suddenly everything is clear. You know it's the right one when you stop thinking about the story and start thinking about the scenes — how this actor plays that moment, what the light does, what she says right before she walks out. That fire is the signal. When it shows up, you've found it. Here are a few ideas that didn't make it. 👇

Other ideas for DAIKO Part 2

Sep 17, 2026

1 — THE CHAMPION She's been the undefeated champion of a walled city's arena for nine years. Nobody told her the fights are being filmed and sold off-world. 2 — THE STONE Their Namek contact is dead and buried under a cairn of stones. She leaves food on the grave every morning, and she's not wrong to. 3 — THE FEAST A harvest festival where she wins every contest and eats everything. The winners of past years were taken off-world and never came back. 4 — THE STORM HOUR Every day at the same hour, an entire planet goes underground to hide from the storm. It isn't a storm. 5 — THE THIEF The Namek says the Saiyan died two years ago. That same night, a girl who laughs too loud steals everything Daiko owns. 6 — SHALLOW SEA A world of shallow water and stilt villages, where she's the best diver alive. Every week she dives too deep, in the same spot, and comes back with nothing. 7 — THE VISITOR Once a year a trading ship lands and everyone celebrates. A few volunteers leave with it, write home for a while, then stop. 8 — THE MOUNTAIN Monks made her a living saint so she'd never have to come down. Her holiness turned out to be very profitable for them. 9 — THE COURIER The fastest runner on a world of roads and relay stations, raised on songs that taught her every route. The songs aren't routes. 10 — THE RIVAL Two ships land on the same day, looking for the same woman. She's never heard of either of them. and maybe 10 others ... but now i have a tons of good idea for Daiko part 3, 4, 5, 6 haha
