    Funny enough, I was reading a post about Toriyama a few weeks ago. And I heard that when he created Frieza's iconic Final Form, it was apparently inspired by the imaginary monsters he saw as a little kid. The fact that he took something so personal and added to his work just shows how much Dragon Ball meant to him.

DBZ was my introduction to the greatness of Japanese animation. It was the first anime I really followed as a kid and I instantly fell in love. Watching those episodes on the Spanish channels even though I had no idea what was being said, watching it on classic Toonami, it is so nostalgic. Such a legacy, and to create a character that rivals the popularity of Superman is an incredible feat. Rest in Peace.

He screamed for nearly 5 whole minutes, and gave us a transformation just as, if not more impactful, than the first Ssj transformation.

    I wanted to say rest in peace, Akira Toriyama. There really aren’t any words I can think of to describe the pain this loss has brought to not just me, but millions of people around the world. Toriyama was such an amazingly creative person who really did create something unique and special with Dragon Ball. I can only imagine how he must have felt knowing he created the most popular anime and manga of all time and it’s amazing how he was able to create such a unique story all the way back in 1984 and have it still be so unbelievably popular all these years later. And it’s especially saddening given how this is technically the 40th anniversary of the entire Dragon Ball franchise overall. And it’s incredible how he helped inspire so many other anime and manga creators like Eiichiro Oda with One Piece, Masashi Kishimoto with Naruto, Tite Kubo with Bleach and so, so, so many more. Another tragic part to all this is that we’ve lost so many amazing manga artists these last few years like Kentaro Miura and Kazuki Takahashi and now we’ve lost the most well known of them all. I really do need to thank Toriyama for everything he’s done with creating this franchise and these amazing characters like Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo and so many others. I only got into Dragon Ball back in 2017 and I can say I understand why it’s as gigantically popular as it is with so many amazing and iconic moments. It’s also amazing how this franchise seems very simplistic compared to other mangas and yet it’s still hailed as amazing all these year later. It’ll be tragic to watch Dragon Ball Daima this year knowing it’s the last thing he ever worked on. Overall, I just want to say, thank you for everything Akira Toriyama and rest in peace.

    I know this is an official post. But there are words I cannot describe after the shocking news last night. The inner child me cries with the passing of Akira Toriyama who died at acute subdural hematoma
    He is one of the most influence creators we have in our time, and he's inspired other manga artists to create other franchises like Naruto and One Piece.
    I would have never gotten into Toonmai at a young age if not for Dragon Ball Z. Let alone other medias like movies and video games.
    RIP Akira Toriyama. We will forever miss you and thank you for everything!

      @eetfuk3571 3 місяці тому

      I really hate the fact that people are hating Daima even though it wasn't out yet and they're completely ignoring it was actually Toriyama that time who's directing it. they will only miss you when you're gone, sadly. I am very hyped about Daima and I am actually wholeheartedly believing that Toriyama might use some ideas from Dragon Ball GT in that show and execute it properly because GT failed to do so although their ideas are very interesting and unique.

    To be honest I'm still having trouble trying to process all this but I will say, Toriyama's work, passion, and overall existence has left such an impression on me and this rest of the world that I truly believe he has made his mark permanently in Human History.
    I don't pray much, but if there's one thing I will hope to God is true, it's that the afterlife is indeed the grand, joyous world he envisioned in his work.
    I'll like to think he's up there with King Kai smiling down upon all of us, thank you for Toriyama, for everything.

    Thank you, Mr Akira Toriyama! I watched Gohan turn SSJ for the first time at least 80 times before my first boxing match 12 years ago. Pushing through his limits resonated with me. I won my fight by 2nd round TKO. Mr. Toriyama made a quirky little black boy believe he too can become a super saiyan 😊

    I remembered watching Dragon Ball Z on YTV when I was a kid, pretty good show back then and I wasn’t aware of anime that time until more shows up and I opened the door. After DBZ there’s the first series featuring Kid Goku aired on YTV then Dragon Ball GT (I didn’t have a problem with the show).
    Years later, as soon as I heard there was a redub with new cast and following the anime’s mature side and the raw’s original soundtracks I immediately rewatch the series starting with the first seasons, finished it then went to DBZ with only 1 ep and I was on break for too long.
    Akira Toriyama, even though I was living in ignorance, I now know that you are an important figure who have contributed to the anime world’s growth, and to me you are gone too soon and no doubt you regret of not finishing your works nor be able to witness the new Dragon Ball anime. We hope that you Rest In Peace.
    Amen.
