Although it’s unclear where exactly the series takes place in the timeline, ALWAYS is confirmed to be set in the franchise’s main continuityand be the continuation of the story that began in 1984. Dragon Ball DAIMA is a follow-up to Dragon Ball Superit’s clearly going to be a very different type of Dragon Ball series.
Great tried to rediscover the spark of Dragon Ball Ztelling similar types of stories and regularly referencing beloved moments directly. ALWAYSmeanwhile, seems to take more influence from the original Dragon BallAnd Dragon Ball GT. The hypothesis that Goku had reverted to a child form was first used by GTand the idea of a young Goku embarking on a mystical and fun adventure with no idea of what awaits him (with his trusty Power Pole in hand), is what Dragon Ball it was initially about.

The heroes of the series have become small but, aside from allowing Goku to relive his youth, it is unclear why the villains did it, what they are looking for and even who they really are.
