Akira Toriyama is a treasure of Japan. He is the pride of the Japanese people. But he taught us that it is the same throughout the world. Thank you for sharing this wonderful surprise with us!🇯🇵🙏
From what I heard, both the French and Chinese governments have actually released official statements about his passing showing how much he was loved around the World
@@guest-cd7md Some people might be, but that doesn't mean the whole country is mocking his death. Hell, we have people on our own social media who are mocking and attacking his death. There will be people in every country or group who dose stuff like this.
@@4wheal i know, but they’re *always* doing it no matter where and when, more than others especially when it comes to anything Japan related. they’re either trying to take claim of Japanese works or say their own products are “superior”. insults go without saying. (also, saying “some” is an understatement…)
@@kidrobot. That is not how you describe a golden age fella. One artist making beautiful works is not a golden age. He is a golden artist but not from a golden age, as he is the only note of fame from then. Golden age refers to when there is more than one in the industry helping to propel it forward. One world class boxer in a time of bad boxers is not a golden age. 10 world class boxers in the same era all battling it out is a golden era. One or 2 world class footballers in an era were there's not many legends is not a golden era. They maybe worthy of adulation and praise as legends themselves but the era is not golden as it was always one or the other. 20 world class players in the same era playing is a golden era. You get the point. Shakespeare is not from a golden era. He is or was realistically the only decent writer from that time period. If he was even real as no hard evidence supports this. Which is why some modern scholars think he is more than one person. Also from a global reach point Shakespear is not that relevant in the lives of poor kids from Brazilian ghettos, middle Eastern poverty, Poor African villages and so on. Like it or not, that's just a sad fact if life. It's only western culture and Asian Culture were he is still relevant. We're as Stan Lee, Akira Toriyama, Jack Kirby, creators of Studio Ghibli and many more are all around at the same time. Many legends. And many legends at the same time is what a GOLDEN ERA is all about fella. Also more people in the world know of Marvel, and Dragon ball and are influenced by it than what Shakespear has left. This is not an opinion. It's a fact. You only have to watch videos and read reports of people all over the world reacting to pictures of Goku, Spiderman, Mickley Mouse etc and then looking puzzled about Shakespear. Not saying it as a negative as I really like Shakespear stuff, and his influence on English culture is beyond approach. But globally outside the West and less so in Asia, his influence is very limited. I worked in the theater and did a degree in media, culture, and communication at University, and we all knew this fact.
No matter how untouchable someone feels or seems or how impactful someone is etc., we all belong to God and to Him is our final return. Life is a journey and the sooner we understand why we exist, the more we'll be able to deal with and understand everything, like wars, injustice, death in general and Toriyama's or Oda's death (yes, Oda-sensei could die at any time and not see his own life peoject that he loved more than anything not being finished etc.). I was catholic and had so many questions about life and reverted to islam at 10 or 11 years. Islam gave me all answers and teached me and made me so much stronger and safed me from nihilism, pessimism and suicide.
He also caused power scaling wars and divided Goku- and Vegeta fans. 😅 At least in DBS Broly he made Begeta relevant again and maintaned a bit of peace in the community 🙌🏻
Definitely felt it when the last episode of Super aired. It was like everyone was watching the World Cup together, except they were all rooting for the same thing.
The level of impact and influence of Dragon Ball went beyond Anime/Manga and the entertainment culture in general. It is ingrained into a big part of our childhoods and so it becomes an emotion which unless you experienced it, wouldn't know what it's like coming back from school everyday and tuning in to watch the next episode. It was an emotion and now a heartbreak that cannot be explained
@@hisss He’s not a football anything. He was a manga artist who created the Dragonball series plus more series. To why the football world is honoring him I don’t know but as a Dragonball and anime fan, I’m very touched. Even the world of sports honors a great man. ❤️
@@MoonLoonie69 I see. I don't know anything about manga or anime or whatever it's called (not shitting on it, I just dunno that stuff) but yeah, we footy fans are absolute nutters in how we show respect. And sounds like the man's earned it. Cheers for explaining!
I’m so honor to be as being from Japan. I didn’t know that Dragon ball from my country is that incredibly popular in other countries. This reaction got my heart emotional.
It is so big outside of Japan you have no idea my friend! The impact that Dragon Ball had on people's lives go beyond anime and entertainment. I just want to thank Japan for producing Toriyama-sensei. Arigatouu!!
I m 41 and Dragon Ball has been in my life for all these years. I m so sad because it s like loosing a membre of my family. You can be proud of your country and your culture. Rest in peace Toriyama sensei 🙏 A fan from Belgium
@SuperShunshunshun Only anime people liked in their childhood around the world are all from japan like DBZ, pokemon, Gundam Wing, Yu-Gi-Oh, digimon.. i'm 31 from belgium... ofcourse you had also simpson,southpark or other american cartoon but japan anime was a head of his time 20+ years ago and still is... i'm not a fan of anime but i will admit dbz or pokemon is best childhood moments better then football at that time, after school you run to home just to watch DBZ they had bad time schedule i remember...
This man shaped an entire generations childhood and the anime community of today with his pen. RIP to Akira Toriyama, the most influential mangaka of all time,the OG goat. You will forever be missed and no one can replace you or your influence.Sayonara Toriyama sensei,you'll never be forgotten,your name will be written in golden words as the most iconic animanga creator. You may have passed,but your legacy will continue through the characters you created and people you inspired,and your impact shall always stay eternal. Fly high goat of animanga🕊️❤
Same. Dragon Ball formed me as a person and formed my personality, but i realised some time, no matter how untouchable someone feels or seems or how impactful someone is etc., we belong to God and to Him is our final return.

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 years 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.
No matter how many Days, Weeks, Months, or years go by, I will never forget this legend & the impact his creativity has on the world. Rest In Power Akira Toriyama🕊⚡️
The fact that even football world loves Akira Toriyama show his popularity. I fell to love the genre because of him and I follow the likes of stories like Naruto, Jojo, etc, all for him. He has reached the level of Pele and Maradona. RIP.

@@miyako1909alright I'll fix it real quick. no one really taught me which honorifics go to which so i didn't wanna accidentally tell them to use the wrong one 💀
The fact that people all over the world is mourning his death and doing tribute to Akira Toriyama is heart warming.... Just goes to show that while he is gone, he sure isn't, and will never, be forgotten! R.I.P Akira Toriyama, thanks for everything!!!!! I loved all those DBZ references: The Spirit Bomb, Kamehameha, Fusion, Galick Gun......That was cool!
DBZ is an all-time favorite in the early childhood of many. I can watch the whole series over and over. That's how legendary this series was. Thank you, Akira Toriyama. You created a series that we will remember forever. The DBZ universe will live forever. Thank you, goku, for a great childhood.

This is beautiful. It’s not just the anime industry but the GLOBAL industry that acknowledges how much Akira Toriyama has influenced us. Rest in peace, prosperity and paradise sensei
Seeing the football World commemorate the passing of Toriyama San brings me emense happiness knowing that everyone can mourn this loss together. Rest in peace ❤
No matter the language or country, Dragon Ball teached anyone who watched it to face life with courage and never give up, becoming a huge inspiration all around the world
It's honestly beautiful how one author got everyone even the most feared to get together to mourm his death and showed pride for being a fan of his creations.
this man created something that many of us only wish we could create, Hès probably inspired more people to persevere than any other man in the history of the world and he did it through story. Rest in Peace Akira Toriyama
Wow! I’m glad the kind of impact it had on everyone. When I liked something that much it had to be this big. Been watching dragon ball as a kid and still now 30 years later. Life wouldn’t be the same without this genius. RIP
@sadsadasdsadasdsadas As much as I like Goku Im afraid I have to disagree. But, he does beat him in popularity. Superman too overpowered and thats what makes him lame.
@@raycenteno7698 Dragon Ball beats the Superman cartoon in popularity because Dragon Ball is relatable to everyone trying to build themselves and Super Man is just a blessed character that's relatable to overpriced plain Wonder Bread.
@sadsadasdsadasdsadasYeah non comic book fans don't get that Death battle just took a bunch of random feats compiled them together like it's all the same Superman. Some versions of Superman are weaker and some are stronger but Death battle can't even decide what version of Superman they are using in their videos
@sadsadasdsadasdsadas Yeah they like to do that a lot with Marvel and DC characters especially. Bring up something that happened in the comics but then leave out all the context
@@raycenteno7698Goku felt closer,relatable with common folk and more friendly than Superman,which always been seen as somewhat superior race,not to mention he wasn't remotely interesting or funny to watch or read than Goku
When a legend dies just know that you are not the only one standing, mourning and appreciating his work. Akira Toriyama you may not be able to witness these events but I hope you can hear your Super Saiyan Fans screaming and cheering on your leagacy. Thank you being part of our childhood memories!😢 This is bringing me to tears, honestly. I'd be thinking that there won't be a lot of people who would love DB but this video has proved me wrong.
Rest in Power Akira San. You taught us in South Africa the unrelenting power of the human spirit and a believe that there are still good in the world. Everything and every one in the Universe needs hope for love and peace. You are LOVED !!
Always the great one's that get taken too early! He was the friend everyone needed but never had. R.I.P, you legend. Thank you for shaping my life from child to adult. You will be sorely missed but never, ever forgotten!
I know it's sad that the world lost a legend but I think it's beautiful to see so many people around the world come together to honor Mr. Toriyama, fly high you will be missed!
Its honestly kinda poetic that i had finished reading the dbz manga the same day akira toriyama passed away it was how i first discovered his wonderful world and im happy i got to experience it whilst he was still alive
R.I.P 😭😭😭 (1955-2024) goodbye Goku farewell, my childhood hero & my friends 😭😭😭 I ❤ DBZ is the best epic anime fight ever! I like Goku vs Vegeta, I'm from Vietnam 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
See, most don’t understand, as children we saw these characters and they inspired strength and determination. More so than any family member or anything, and now we’re older and using those stories today. To get stronger, to persevere. Dragonball was important to so many. R.I.P Toriyama
Sad day in the dragon ball community this is a sad day Akira toriyama got people into anime and got inti dragon ball fandom This is upsetting and shocking wsdnt expected this Again why both David Attenborough and Ruth langsford mother both late 90s are still alive which is shocking what's keeping these old people alive really shocking and numb and really cant get ovrr this as never knew he dided 68 is not young 68 old is old look at people in 60s both die away Really upsetting never happened unexpected wow this is really upsetting ans cabt process this Dragon ball got me into anime if it wsdnt for dragon ball i would never got into smime so i thank akira san for all his work snd condolences to his family and friends thos difficult timr So now no more whats the future of dragon ball daima or dragon ball super manga who knowdThis is shocking dudnt expect thst wow this is latterly shocking and upsetting abd rip toriyama sensei Manay condolence to his family and friends through this difficult time The community must be in shock Am in shock This is sad day in the anime world So no dragon ball daima or future works This is deeply sad day in the dragon ball community
This is so bittersweet, and a wonderful tribute. Akira Toriyama deserves all the praise in the world for his inspiring work. RIP Toriyama Sensei, you're the greatest. We will see you in Other World.
Akira Toriyama and his creation are treasure to this world, he is a life changer, inspirer and a sensei to many, to say his passing is tragic is an understatement, this is devastating beyond comprehension, there won’t be a single time were everybody lives will feel full or happy without him or his creation around, rest in peace Akira Toriyama and thank you very much for everything we all loved every minute, may we meet someday in the other side 😔🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️🩹❤️🩹
Im not even a fan of sports yet i still understand how much of an impact Toryama had, his series touched many hearts and spirits of several generations and wont be forgotten. He was a legend and will live on in our souls until the end of time. Seeing all these people reminds me that we're all just Humans, grieving, im glad so many could come together and show their love and support.
there really is something so viscerally beautiful about seeing so many parts of the world brought together by their love for one man and his art that affected all of them
I have never been a fan or watched any Anime or MANGA, but it is so nice to what a wholesome community and legacy this man has made, and all the people touched in great ways in the world by this culture. Bless you all.
"All things must come to an end not even the dragonballs last for ever." (Goku on Namek during the Frieza Saga). Akira Toriyama knew this and so he made an impact on this world during the time he had, and is still doing it even after he passed. When I look at Goku, I see Goku and Akira Toriyama as one in the same. Thank you for sharing your imagination with us Akira Toriyama. You will be missed
1997. My mum bought a Dragon Ball comic (translated into my native language) for my brother and I. It was my very first introduction to Dragon Ball. I started reading more and more, even borrowing from my friends and cousins. 2001. My family and I moved to Leeds, England and stayed there for a year and 6 months. I, along with my brother, went to a school. I managed to learn basic English to communicate, but I am still having a hard time adjusting to the environment. I made a few friends but never quite clicked with them. That all changed when I found out that they loved watching Dragon Ball. From there, I was able to click with them quite easily. I remember how proud I was to be able to share my knowledge of Dragon Ball since they don't have access to the comic books like I did. 2003. I was a junior in a boarding school. On Saturday morning, me along with other students (juniors and seniors alike) waited in front of our warden's room. When the warden opened the door, he let some of us in so that we could bring out the TV from his room and bring it to the canteen. After setting the TV up and turning it on, we all waited while having breakfast just in time for an episode of Dragon Ball to start airing. It happened every week like clockwork. Sure, other students were looking forward to other shows and programs, but most of them were very excited for Dragon Ball. In fact, IIRC, a week after the last episode of Dragon Ball Z was aired, no one seemed to be excited to wait in front of the warden’s room to get the TV out at least until Dragon Ball GT started airing. When I said that Dragon Ball was a part of my life growing up, I was not exaggerating. Sure, I've outgrown it, but I'm still very nostalgic about it. It may not have changed my life in a big way, but it makes me appreciate the good memories I made growing up. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Akira Toriyama.
It's so heart-warming to see so many people show respect towards the genius behind the creation of ''Dragon Ball''. It just goes to show how iconic the show was, and how influential Akira Toriyama was. R.I.P. Akira Toriyama. I hope you are happy in heaven.
Rest in Peace Sensei Toriyama!!! 🥹🥹🥹 I dreamed of breaking my limits and boundaries to the best that i can be.. Goku and the rest taught me that.. You may have beleived that you only created a piece of entertainment masterpiece... but all of us knew u created more than that. you shaped a whole generation of strong willed individuals I SALUTE YOU 🫡🫡🫡 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@@TheUltimateRare Use honorific, too. It is Toriyama-sensei.
@@miyako1909alright I'll fix it real quick.
no one really taught me which honorifics go to which so i didn't wanna accidentally tell them to use the wrong one 💀
@@TheUltimateRareit's his pen name, not real name but it is more appropriate to call him Toriyama than Akira...
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama.
His fans will never forget him. We will remain strong Akira…until we meet again. Rest in peace.💐
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama . You inspired so many people all over the world. The world weeps.
Hes not dead, just chilling with king kai
The fact that people all over the world is mourning his death and doing tribute to Akira Toriyama is heart warming....
Just goes to show that while he is gone, he sure isn't, and will never, be forgotten!
R.I.P Akira Toriyama, thanks for everything!!!!!
I loved all those DBZ references: The Spirit Bomb, Kamehameha, Fusion, Galick Gun......That was cool!
R.I.P Akira Toriyama we will allways remeber u and ur amazing Dragon ball franchise 🕊️❤️😔
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama.
DBZ is an all-time favorite in the early childhood of many. I can watch the whole series over and over. That's how legendary this series was. Thank you, Akira Toriyama. You created a series that we will remember forever. The DBZ universe will live forever. Thank you, goku, for a great childhood.
Coming Home AFTER School & Tuning In To WATCH Dragonball Z During MY Middle School DAYS Man Those Were The DAYS.
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Heroes can be remembered, But legends never die.❤️🔥👊🏻
Amen! ❤🔥👊🏻 His legacy will live on forever!
This man is was and will still be the greatest of legends.
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Rest in peace Akira thank you for inspiring so many of us.
you might not know this, but you should use his last name. In Japan, They say the last name to show respect for people.
So call him Toriyama-Sensei, not Akira, because you don't know him personally.
@@TheUltimateRare Look I like the Japanese culture as much as the next guy, but I don't think a lot of people are gonna care for that.
This is beautiful. It’s not just the anime industry but the GLOBAL industry that acknowledges how much Akira Toriyama has influenced us. Rest in peace, prosperity and paradise sensei
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Thank you for the memories of a great childhood, Akira Toriyama. Much love from 🇯🇲.
Seeing the football World commemorate the passing of Toriyama San brings me emense happiness knowing that everyone can mourn this loss together. Rest in peace ❤
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Omg that is beautiful! Thank you all for doing this tribute 😭❤️ you’re all amazing, the legend deserves nothing less!
Most of these were before his death (goku super saiyan was at PSG)
rip Akira Toiymama i lot of love 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Didn't realise it was so widespread as this. It's mad to see how much people are affected. And how much they remember and respect.
鳥山さんありがとう
同じ日本人として誇りに思います🇯🇵❤
We people outside of Japan are truly greatful you gave us this icon he meant so much to us as well.
This feels so validating. Thank you Toriyama-san. Thank you to everyone that makes what connects us.
May he rest in peace. One of the best writers of manga.
No matter the language or country, Dragon Ball teached anyone who watched it to face life with courage and never give up, becoming a huge inspiration all around the world
Rip to the greatest manga author of all time the goat the legend akira toriyama
You have created a masterpiece❤!! R.i.p Toriyama 😢🇬🇷
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
You will be missed by everyone, RIP Akira Toriyama.
Nope, not everyone. Never heard of him.
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
If this is how people react to your passing, then you’ve done well in life.
Even in death Toriyama has to be proud of the insane reach his work had. Seeing all these futballers do the iconic Z fighter poses proves it.
RIP Akira Toriyama
Thanks for the motivation to keep going!!!
Akira Toriyama rest in peace, the world honor you in our hearts.
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
It's honestly beautiful how one author got everyone even the most feared to get together to mourm his death and showed pride for being a fan of his creations.
U rock guys! And much respect to the spokeswoman! R.I.P Toriyama-sensei! 🙏❤️🐉
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
this man created something that many of us only wish we could create, Hès probably inspired more people to persevere than any other man in the history of the world and he did it through story. Rest in Peace Akira Toriyama
Damn. Even the football world. Rest in peace Legend.
That's how big he was. People you never would expect are fans of his work.
R.I.P.
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
素敵な動画を心からありがとう。
アニメという枠を超えて世界中に与えた影響は本当に計り知れない。
誰もを温かい気持ちにさせ、人としてどうあるべきか？どう生きるべきか？それらを多言語の壁を乗り越え世界共通で強くやさしく認識させてくれた壮大な御方。
本当にありがとうございました。そして安らかに。
Wow! I’m glad the kind of impact it had on everyone. When I liked something that much it had to be this big. Been watching dragon ball as a kid and still now 30 years later. Life wouldn’t be the same without this genius. RIP
LOL. They were all doing the DBZ poses. Lets see Superman beat that. But, in all seriousness its sad to see him gone.
@sadsadasdsadasdsadas As much as I like Goku Im afraid I have to disagree. But, he does beat him in popularity. Superman too overpowered and thats what makes him lame.
@@raycenteno7698 Dragon Ball beats the Superman cartoon in popularity because Dragon Ball is relatable to everyone trying to build themselves and Super Man is just a blessed character that's relatable to overpriced plain Wonder Bread.
@sadsadasdsadasdsadasYeah non comic book fans don't get that Death battle just took a bunch of random feats compiled them together like it's all the same Superman. Some versions of Superman are weaker and some are stronger but Death battle can't even decide what version of Superman they are using in their videos
@sadsadasdsadasdsadas Yeah they like to do that a lot with Marvel and DC characters especially. Bring up something that happened in the comics but then leave out all the context
@@raycenteno7698Goku felt closer,relatable with common folk and more friendly than Superman,which always been seen as somewhat superior race,not to mention he wasn't remotely interesting or funny to watch or read than Goku
When a legend dies just know that you are not the only one standing, mourning and appreciating his work. Akira Toriyama you may not be able to witness these events but I hope you can hear your Super Saiyan Fans screaming and cheering on your leagacy. Thank you being part of our childhood memories!😢
This is bringing me to tears, honestly. I'd be thinking that there won't be a lot of people who would love DB but this video has proved me wrong.
o hell naw they failed a fusion 0:34 🤣
Piccolo finna be pissed
Rest in peace legend you will never be forgotten
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
I grew up with Dragon Ball in the 90s, it was actually the only anime I just loved to watch. What he did was popular in the whole world.
Rest in Peace
RIP angel Akira Toriyama. In heaven with my grandmother 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🕊
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Rest in Power Akira San. You taught us in South Africa the unrelenting power of the human spirit and a believe that there are still good in the world. Everything and every one in the Universe needs hope for love and peace. You are LOVED !!
Whenever a new episode of DBZ dropped, cartel activity dropped as well.
Its heartwarming when people come together to mourn and honor someone they never met but admired and looked up to
A true legend!
Always the great one's that get taken too early!
He was the friend everyone needed but never had.
R.I.P, you legend.
Thank you for shaping my life from child to adult.
You will be sorely missed but never, ever forgotten!
I know it's sad that the world lost a legend but I think it's beautiful to see so many people around the world come together to honor Mr. Toriyama, fly high you will be missed!
Its honestly kinda poetic that i had finished reading the dbz manga the same day akira toriyama passed away it was how i first discovered his wonderful world and im happy i got to experience it whilst he was still alive
R.I.P 😭😭😭 (1955-2024) goodbye Goku farewell, my childhood hero & my friends 😭😭😭 I ❤ DBZ is the best epic anime fight ever! I like Goku vs Vegeta, I'm from Vietnam 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
See, most don’t understand, as children we saw these characters and they inspired strength and determination. More so than any family member or anything, and now we’re older and using those stories today. To get stronger, to persevere. Dragonball was important to so many. R.I.P Toriyama
até arrepio
é incrivel o tamanho de Dragon Ball, o mundo inteiro o conhece e conheceu
I honestly never knew how passionate soccer fans were for the Dragon Ball Z universe. Happily crying at seeing this amazing dedication to our legend.
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
Wtf is wrong with you
Lots of love from India ❤RIP🙏
R.I.P. Akira Toriyama.
Gracias Akira Toriyama!!
This is wholesome. Did not see it coming. I have a lot more respect for football/soccer players now.
I used to hate dragon ball z because I thought it was cringe. After Akira's death I decided to watch it and it was the best choice of my life.
Damn, I really never thought this day would come. RIP Akira Toriyama

This month is no longer womens month, it will be remebered as Toriyama Month.
It's heartwarming as a db fan we miss him his beautiful artwork given to us
😢😢😢😢😢
Akira Toriyama and his creation are treasure to this world, he is a life changer, inspirer and a sensei to many, to say his passing is tragic is an understatement, this is devastating beyond comprehension, there won’t be a single time were everybody lives will feel full or happy without him or his creation around, rest in peace Akira Toriyama and thank you very much for everything we all loved every minute, may we meet someday in the other side 😔🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️🩹❤️🩹
Im not even a fan of sports yet i still understand how much of an impact Toryama had, his series touched many hearts and spirits of several generations and wont be forgotten. He was a legend and will live on in our souls until the end of time. Seeing all these people reminds me that we're all just Humans, grieving, im glad so many could come together and show their love and support.
This is great!! Sent chills down my spine
He brought so many people from so many backgrounds together, I’m gonna have to watch the show now.
there really is something so viscerally beautiful about seeing so many parts of the world brought together by their love for one man and his art that affected all of them
I've never watched Dragonball but I can't deny that literally the whole world knows about it. It's amazing.
watch it!! there’s a youtube upload of it of the main events shortened into movie size if you want the link.
Miss you akira i hope dragonball diama isn't the last project you preserved for us
I have never been a fan or watched any Anime or MANGA, but it is so nice to what a wholesome community and legacy this man has made, and all the people touched in great ways in the world by this culture. Bless you all.
"All things must come to an end not even the dragonballs last for ever." (Goku on Namek during the Frieza Saga). Akira Toriyama knew this and so he made an impact on this world during the time he had, and is still doing it even after he passed. When I look at Goku, I see Goku and Akira Toriyama as one in the same. Thank you for sharing your imagination with us Akira Toriyama. You will be missed
His art will never be forgotten 😔😔🥺😞🙁🙏 I'm 37 years old and i love DBZ
Me To Bro I’ve WATCHED Dragonball Super Episodes So MANY TIMES.
This was really awesome to see man
1997. My mum bought a Dragon Ball comic (translated into my native language) for my brother and I. It was my very first introduction to Dragon Ball. I started reading more and more, even borrowing from my friends and cousins.
2001. My family and I moved to Leeds, England and stayed there for a year and 6 months. I, along with my brother, went to a school. I managed to learn basic English to communicate, but I am still having a hard time adjusting to the environment. I made a few friends but never quite clicked with them.
That all changed when I found out that they loved watching Dragon Ball. From there, I was able to click with them quite easily. I remember how proud I was to be able to share my knowledge of Dragon Ball since they don't have access to the comic books like I did.
2003. I was a junior in a boarding school. On Saturday morning, me along with other students (juniors and seniors alike) waited in front of our warden's room. When the warden opened the door, he let some of us in so that we could bring out the TV from his room and bring it to the canteen. After setting the TV up and turning it on, we all waited while having breakfast just in time for an episode of Dragon Ball to start airing.
It happened every week like clockwork. Sure, other students were looking forward to other shows and programs, but most of them were very excited for Dragon Ball. In fact, IIRC, a week after the last episode of Dragon Ball Z was aired, no one seemed to be excited to wait in front of the warden’s room to get the TV out at least until Dragon Ball GT started airing.
When I said that Dragon Ball was a part of my life growing up, I was not exaggerating. Sure, I've outgrown it, but I'm still very nostalgic about it. It may not have changed my life in a big way, but it makes me appreciate the good memories I made growing up.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you Akira Toriyama.
This is so heartwarming. Love from all over the globe. Hello from Australia. 💙
Rest in Hell Akira Toriyama 🔥
bless you akira I was 10 when I started watching dragonball now I am 14 and I LOVE DRAGON BALL I could not imagine my childhood without you
bro its crazy how many emotions dragon ball brought anger hatred love joy it all made me a part of your masterpiece
RIP Akira Sensei
It's so heart-warming to see so many people show respect towards the genius behind the creation of ''Dragon Ball''. It just goes to show how iconic the show was, and how influential Akira Toriyama was.
R.I.P. Akira Toriyama. I hope you are happy in heaven.
Honestly I’m still shocked he’s gone especially since he still had more for the story
Thank you for making my childhood so special ❤❤
Rest in Peace Sensei Toriyama!!! 🥹🥹🥹
I dreamed of breaking my limits and boundaries to the best that i can be.. Goku and the rest taught me that..
You may have beleived that you only created a piece of entertainment masterpiece...
but all of us knew u created more than that. you shaped a whole generation of strong willed individuals
I SALUTE YOU 🫡🫡🫡
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
