I just want to share a personal story about the most impactful memory that Akira Toriyama allowed me to have.
In 2014, I was trying to open an anime shop, and my planned grand opening happened to coincide with the release of Dragon Ball Z Battle of the Gods. I was at the movie theater on the release day passing out flyers to everyone who loved Dragon Ball just as much as I did, and because of the love that everyone shares for Dragon Ball, that grand opening ended up being a success.
That was the greatest day of my life, and without this great man and his great works, that would have never been possible.
Thank you Toriyama Sensei, for giving the world such a gift in influencing so much of all of our lives!
RIP to one of the greatest creative minds to have ever lived.
That's hella cool man, insane that movie dropped 10 years ago now. Do you still own that shop?
you nailed it, a world without Toriyama is just weird, it doesn't feel right. Its strange mourning for someone you've never met.
He influenced a lot of kids especially me, DB taught everyone to push on, keep fighting and turn your enemies into your ally
I feel very similar. I never met the guy, but he influenced a sizable part of my imagination, and life.
Same here. In fact he and I share the same birthday. DBZ was my gateway into anime.
It’s the type of mourning that really strange because even if we did not know the man and never met him physically, he change the lives of many directly through his work or indirectly by inspiring the work of others. The world lost a really amazing artists, one that comes once in a generation… may Toriyama-Sensei rest in peace knowing he change a lot of live and inspired a lot of kid that grew up with his characters and learned from the about topic like: courage to stand up for what is right, to stand up against bullies and big odds, to show kindness to your friends but also to your enemies, friendship, hard work, strength of character. There are a ton of lessons to be learned from dragon ball even in his simplicity.
It’s a sad because his passing is like missing a piece of my childhood and the end of the life of a legend. But his work will carry out his legend for future generations. RIP Akira Toriyama-Sensei😭
In a way we did meet/know him, and that's the beauty of art
I was literally watching Dragon Ball last night, and i found out he died right after. He was taken far too soon
Same here, it absolutely broke my heart instantly. I was thinking to myself how great at world, creature and character building he was from the start. Rest In Power. This void will never be filled for the rest of time.
68 years bro, is a tragedy
Me too
i wouldnt be able to cope if he was my fav mangaka. i’d probably grieve my whole life till im dead.
I’m dealing with his death by getting a job, making a blueprint for my greenhouse, and signing up for a master gardening class. I can’t believe he passed at 68. What’s crazy is that Dragon Ball episode 68 was the latest episode I was on when I found out.
It'll be ok buddy, I recommend #Meaningwave for self improvement music.
He would've loved this for you.
I see this "coincidence" as a sign that a part of Toriyama san's spirit has moved onto you my friend. Carry it foward with you on you're new endeavor and make us all proud
You should have watched episode 108. 😢 RIP legend
@XDfurry69Human landfill
I normally don't care too much about a celebrity death. But Toriyama's passing hit me. I actually shed tears for him. His work was such a huge influence on my life. It's hard to believe he's really gone.
I've loved Dragonball since just before kindergarten in 1999. Im gonna be 31 soon and Dragonball was a big part of my life then, even more so now. It fell out of favor in my teens, but I rediscovered my love for it after high school. I was well overweight and watching them all strive for greatness turned things around. I hit the weights, dropped 70 lbs, developed confidence, starting meeting friends and girls, now I'm married with a wife who grew up with Dragonball as we show it to our kids. Our son sleeps with the TV on and from birth it was Dragonball, DBZ, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Yu-Gi-Oh on rotation at night. We'll be starting Dragonball over from the beginning tonight in his honor. Thank you Akira, from another silly white kid from the states you never expected to make an impact on
this was a good read!
No single individual has influenced my interest in anime and manga more than Akira Toriyama. While I've grown to love many series more than Dragonball, it was the first anime I watched where I knew it was something I had never seen before. It opened me up to a whole new world of storytelling. This loss is immense.
Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama
If you ever get the chance to read the Manga Theatre collection of a bunch of his one shots I really recommend them. I binged them at work and you can not only see a lot of what would become Dragon Ball in the writing and characters, but you get to see his versatility and more of his personal interests.
I really love Cashman and wish he could have made a whole series on him.
@XDfurry69
Begone bot
Absolutely not only the best animal that ever existed but the most fking original. No one else could be that successful naming their main characters after different Vegetables, grains and spices. Rest in peace to the GOAT.
I adored Kajika myself.@@NegaHumanX
@@ithydoodles I'll have to check that out. It looks kind of Sinbad-like.
In the early 2000's I volunteered at the Boys and Girls club in Anchorage Alaska. Cartoon Network at the time was airing DBZ and we would have all the kids gather in one of the rec rooms to watch. I remember how happy I was to get to introduce them to Toriyama's masterpiece. I also remember when we finally got to the Frieza saga and Goku goes Super Saiyan, those kids completely lost it! I'll always have those memories with me until the day I die. I have so much to be thankful for to him for what he gave to all of us. Even now in my 40's I still get goosebumps when I go to the theater and enjoy his movie releases. He will definitely be missed.
I cant believe toriyama died in year of dragon.
Poetic. Kinda...
Or 28 days from his birthday and 11 months and 68 days from his last birthday
One of my 4th grade students this morning was thinking about writing his opinion essay about why Dragon Bail Super is better than Dragon Ball Z. I asked him, had he heard about Toriyama, and he just said, "Yeah." This isn't an outwardly emotional kid and he was visibly processing. This shit is generational
I've never been the biggest DBZ fan, but I'd be a liar if I said the Cell Saga didn't make a lasting impression on me at a formative age. I was thirteen, we'd just moved to a new house, and i picked the color for my room based off Trunks' hair. You can see Dragon Ball's DNA everywhere in anime, and beyond.
We lost a legend.
I preferred earlier Dragonball over DBZ. It was Akira Toriyama at his most creative and whimisical. You could tell as the series went on, Toriyama was getting burned out from Dragonball.
Rest in peace to THE greatest to ever do it. Akira Toriyama inspired *everyone*.
DBZ singlehandedly got me into anime. Chrono Trigger got me into RPGs and game design. This man basically crafted my entire childhood, and remains the gold standard even now.
What a profound loss.
Chrono Trigger was my first RPG, but sadly I didn't end up enjoying many other JRPGs (except Chrono Cross and Pokemon) because they just didn't measure up, and felt like they were lacking something. And I really do think part of that was Toriyama's designs and the charm they had.
I didn't even think it would hit me....but did that shit hit hard as fuck... RIP Akira Toriyama
I was surprised it hit me so hard too. I mean, I like Dragon Ball, but it's nowhere near my favorite anime and I was way more a fan of his work on Chrono Trigger. And yet, last night I just broke down while watching the animated cutscenes and just felt gutted.
@@rev.ryan206 his work probably inspired other work you love. Toriyama’s works are cited as inspiration for many mangaka. In more ways that one Akira Toriyama is for some the father of anime, because they started with Dragon ball or one of his other work, or in some cases was the Godfather of anime because he inspired other mangaka to create show that we love. This man’s legacy is amazing and will live on for many, many generations to come!!!
Rest in peace, Mr. Akira Toriyama Sensei!
Akira Toriyama literally changed Shonen battle manga (FOREVER) After Dragon Ball. It’s insane that the shonen battle series today were inspired by the early 2000s manga/anime BECAUSE DB existed first. The cycle goes deep. 😭💙🖤💙
DB pretty much standardized the recipe of "making friends and fight enemies then make those enemies become your friends to fight more enemies and make more friends".
❤
Even Twitter is wholesome today, with millions posting their tributes and stories of how he inspired so many. I follow many amazing artists in all genre's on there and it's incredible how many of them started out just drawing DBZ characters in their school books. 😢 RIP to a true legend.
except for a sweet baby employee who totally used this moment to disrespect Toriyama to try to push her agenda more. truly a gross human.
First Stephen Hillenburg, then Jason David Frank, and now Akira Toriyama. It feels so unreal that all these legendary symbols are gone.
Kevin Conroy too (Batman)
Kentaro Miura 😢
Kazuki Takahashi, the creator of yugioh, also passed away.
All you guys are correct. Life itself is the most relentless fighting bastard I've ever fought. Kevin Conroy and jdf happened right after one another,that's a one-two piece down the center, sorry to put in a personal note but my grandfather passed 2 months ago, that was a groin kick, and now Akira toriyama passing away, axe kick to the back of my head and I'm spiritually knocked out cold.....
@@codycarney2311 yeah, thats another one man... life is relentless
this shit cuts deep.
RIP the goat smh
Too deep
Move Well. Learn Well. Sleep Well. Rest Well.
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.
Yeah
🙏 well said. Rip king!
I don’t believe in after life but is their one thing he did more good than Trump claim to do who is a fascist even you got neon sign point it at to him or Biden the fool who think everything is fine the living embodiment of the memes unlike these fools Akira left a positive mark
@XDfurry69 why saying when a person passed away ?
@@watchforever1724 report and move on. Dont feed the trolls. Or in this case.. furry.
Dragon Ball is something I watch or read when I’m feeling down and it makes me smile. Dragon Ball made me who I am. Without it, I wouldn’t be me, I’d be an entirely different person. I owe him so much for bringing me joy. Thank you Akira Toriyama. Thank you so much 🕊💙 R.I.P
Same feeling I got when Carl weathers died a little while ago. They were still relatively young. And still so many old farts still walk the earth making life more difficult for so many people, and yet the people that bring joy go out so soon. It just sucks.
The impact he had was insane. Db and dbz came into my life around the time i was a teen in a rough life. It pushed me further into martial arts and helped me to fight thru the bs i had to deal with. I would not have the moral compass or be the person i am today without him. Rest in peace. He was the Master Roshi for so many of us.... with less misogyny.
I dont write comments very often but here i am looking at my shelves and it just hurts. Dragon Ball was my childhood. I have so much dragon ball stuff around the house. And its just hard man. I never met the guy but ive always kinda felt his presence in the joy his writing brought me. Very sad day.
I watched Dragonball when it was in syndication, long before it made waves on Toonami. The DB film, Curse Of The Blood Rubies, was one of the first things that got me into anime as a six/seven year old along with Ronin Warriors, My Neighbor Totoro, Samurai Pizza Cats, and Sailor Moon. Something that I've always taken away from Pre-Z Dragonball is how precious innocence is in the face impossible odds and it's something that clung to in my own personal battles with mental health
Shutout to Ronin Warriors, great show.
Dragon Ball Z, Outlaw Star, and Toonami were one of the reasons I kept it together in life as an adolescent. Traveling on the road and being home schooled didn't allow me to have friends. But DBZ was my best friend. R.I.P Toriyama
The beauty of Toriyama’s works is that it has brought up together so many people from so many different places and times. Not many works and artists have had this reach. In a way he brought us all together right here and right now and he will live through our bond
Thank you for making this video. I’ve been upset and unsure how to process my feelings all day and to see that someone else’s life was so affected by Toriyama’s work helps. Rest in peace Akira Toriyama.
I hate that I’m at the age where my heroes and those who inspire me are dying; I’m 43, born in 1980. Jees. I’m still not over Kevin Conroy’s death. Dragon Ball Z is one of the three anime that made me an anime and manga fan; Sailor Moon and Ronin Warriors being the other two in the Summer of 1995. I’m an artist myself and I am so happy when other artists and/or storytellers invite me into their worlds.
I’m still a huge Piccolo fan and have a collection of his figs, statues, and so on. I love the characters Toriyama created and it was a privilege to watch them grow and evolve. His art style was his alone and is still wonderful to see and study. He is dearly missed.
Rest in peace, Sir. Thank you so much for your stories.
I was so obsessed with Dragon Ball the first time I saw it as a kid, I use to go hunting at any and all video stores, just trying to find Dragon Ball tapes.. No other form of media has made me go that far to experience it.
RIP to a legend
He really is a big reason im so big into anime and was even abig reason i love jrpg video games. I found out last night while i was trying to go bed and actually got tears. What a legend. He truly did leave an impact on the entire world. His style was so unique. With his manga he was a master of not only machines but in movement. The movement of characters actions in dragonball is incredible
Akira Toriyama was responsible for my breakthroughs in art. That alone has been worth the thanks, not mentioning literally everything else.
What a legacy to leave behind. One in a million.
Is crazy to think how Toriyama was simultaneously establishing and deconstructing the foundations of shonen manga. And he was doing that in the 80s and 90s, before the idea of deconstructing the genre was even a thing. He was a genius and he was definitely way ahead of his time. Rest in peace.
I'm not here to make a sob story for me. So many of us have our own experience with his work.
My story, is how my best friend and I became so, through Dragon Ball. It was that through line thread that connected us, blossoming into an incredible friendship for over 30 years.
My friend passed not long ago, and that was crushing. When I heard Toriyama had passed, it brought so much hurt back, but also gratitude. His influence and art sparked a friendship I can't replace, and a love for a medium I would not have without him.
RIP Toriyama, thank you for so much you gave me personally, and all of us collectively.
Hey, my wife also asked her mom to cut her hair like Trunks
So many of my deepest and most fulfilling relationships were created because of Akira Toriyama's work. His art was the ultimate ice breaker for me as an awkward kid with social anxieties and insecurities about my ability to hold conversations with strangers. He had away of uniting all kinds of people with his genius and I'm eternally grateful to him as a creative and an inspiration. I only wish I could have thanked him personally in some way.
I been saying, "It sucks that someone who brought so much joy & creativity to the world died younger than politicians who bring nothing but misery & hate."
There really are few people who can be considered truly legendary. He inspired the entire world through anime, manga and videogames, it should never be understated that Dragonball burst anime into the mainstream unlike anything, and set the industry standard for manga
I was about 9 or 10 years old when I first saw my first episode of dragon ball and I am 40 now. Dragon Ball Z characters inspired me to me to draw better. Now he is gonna and I feel a hollow feeling I may not get back and it hurts.
Beautiful words! playing dnd tonight with my friends... and so much of my ability to tell stories has been inspired by Akira Toriyama's work. Glad I could see this video before our session - made me remember how much I owe to this man!
Bro I’m going through the same thing i can’t believe it his my hero 😢
Yeah
Mine was a fox subsidiary with sailor moon followed by the original USA dub of the original Dragonball, it was at like 6 am though, so I never managed to see it again, but it stuck with me till I got cartoon network and learned what it was. That's when I remembered that I had seen it before
It makes sense to make this video for yourself, getting your thoughts out is a healthy way to grieve. The world truly lost something and you’re right, it sucks more than it did.
I didn't know that I would feel the exact same way as someone and this kinda cuts deep
He's riding on Shenron's back and inking more of the DBZ universe and on some occasions visits Arale and the rest of the gang.
Everyone who likes machine designs should read Sand Land. Heck, any Toriyama fan should read it, it's one of the best things he's ever created.
I hope there's an event on the release of the game.
I heard last night as i was going to bed. My heart broke..
My son was hospitalized in psychiatric care this December. He was not allowed anything in his room other than books. I was allowed to stay in his room during his stay. I brought both box sets of Dragonball and dbz. We jammed the whole series for his whole stay. Just like his art for me through a tough childhood, a world to get lost into, he gave that to my boy when he was at a low point. Cannot express how grateful I am for this man and the worlds he took us to. Thank you Akira Toriyama. Hopefully you’re on snake way right about now.
❤ when your childhood cries.
DBZ transcend anime. For a “simplistic” show the reach of it is so immense. Not a year goes by that I don’t consume dragonball content in some way. Thank you senpai, the man, the myth, the legend.
Bro for real
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 creators to create their own Shonen 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!
Very respectful video and we share the same sentiment all the way in the UK. RIP and Sionara Toriyama ❤
Akira toriyama is the reason i picked up game dev./game modding
all becuase i wanted Goku in smash
thanks Toriyama and R.I.P
It hurts man he was the one who made it so that I could move further beyond and get even better than before honestly his work inspired me to move forward
Toriyama's work shaped me into the person I am today. I wouldn't be who I am without his work.
I am sure it is the same for many of you. He is a legend whose work will live on for many, many more generations.
Leiji Matsumoto is another of those rarefied manga artists with a unique, distinct, one-of-a-kind art style.
He passed away in February 2023.
Beautiful tribute. I'm forever grateful to him for creating his world that empowered us and for connecting so many of us worldwide.
I still remember my first experience with DragonBall Z, tuned in flipping channels and Goku beat the snot out of the Recoome, followed by Jeice and Burter. Then Vegeta finishing them both off. My anime gateways would always be Street Fighter 2V and Yu Yu Hakusho, but the DragonBall series as a whole transformed and motivated the world as a whole, just like it did with it's own characters. For now, another great gets to rest, and legends continue on.
Street fighter 2v was the shit! My older brother owned the box set, eventually gave it to me. Lost the final disc 20+ years ago tho aha
I feel the weight of this man's death. It's the death of dreams and imagination and of memories dear and far in our lives as consumers of the stories that make us who we are. The gravity of this loss is ~immense.~
Toriyama is a Titan of popular culture. His works will live long, long, long after we’re all dead and gone.
What a beautiful, sincere,and touching homage!I am sure he will hear your words at some point!Such a bond does not go without being felt by the other side!Thank you for highlighting his impact in such a simple,but articulate way!Subscribing to your channel because of it!
😔 I miss him so much I always loved anime since childhood
As soon as I heard he died I instantly broke out my chalk and drew Arale (the main character from his first anime, Dr. Slump.) this was the hardest I have been hit by a celebrity death since Norm McDonald.
Well spoken. Tore me up at work when I saw. Finally home and able to process a bit. Crazy to think one guy had that much influence on so many people around the world in a positive way. He is and will be missed but I am extremely thankful for the art and the legacy he left when he was here.
Couldn't have said it better myself. I feel this myself. Without him or his work, I wouldn't be who I am today.
Akira Toriyama was my hero, as a skinny kid in Africa who felt like such an outcast, who thought he didn't belong Toriyama created this work of art that bonded my siblings and i together, my best friends of 10+ years i will never forget
It's crazy to think how far his influence reached. Because he did inspire artists, gamers, writers, designers, and even athletes. So many body builders and gym goes got their motivation from wanted to be as strong as Toriyama's characters
I am a ballerina and when my teeacher ignored me bc I wasnt "thin enough" I developed a way to train inspired by Goku's. I am still using it
DB and DBZ helped me out of the first real depression that I ever experienced in my then young life. It's an entirely captivating journey filled with various characters and an enthralling world of pure adventure. These creations got me into the medium of anime/manga in which I'm still enjoying till this day. Forever grateful for this mans genius. Akira you deserve a beautiful afterlife.
You nailed it.
Toriyama inspired countless people. Most of whom he never met. And I'm sure he was as happy to have us as his admirers as much as we admired his work. He moved the world in a way that very few people can seldom accomplish. May he rest in peace.
He was one of the creators who shaped my childhood and really impacted my life. Terrible loss. Rest in peace, you legend.
I became a Dragon Ball fan thanks to my sister. I used to watch the anime with her when I was a kid, and became so enamored I collected the entire manga early on.
Many, many years later, I gave that same collection to my nephews, my buddies, and they love it as well.
The great moments we've shared thanks to that show (pretending we were doing Kamehamehas with the waves at the beach, watching the Super movies together at the cinema...) are too numerous to count, and I couldn't thank you more for that, Akira-san.
Thank you so, so much.
I'm still so shook and been that way all day but man seeing all the out pouring of love from millions and millions including people like you guys along with all my favourite tubers talking about their experience has been awesome and so many amazing memories that I'll keep forever so RIP to a legendary mangaka and man Akira Toriyama 😭 rest easy 🙏 king.
Toriyama is the reason I'm into anime. My first memory of anime is of me walking in to the kitchen at like 4am to find my dad eating breakfast, lacing up his boots, and getting ready to go to work with DragonBallZ on this tiny little 8-12" tv we had there for some reason. On the saiyan arc where Goku fought Vegeta for the first time, I was captivated by it instantly
Akira Toriyama passing away is definitely sad and devastating news for dragonball fans. Dragonball will never be the same without him. Akira Toriyama will be missed, and his legacy will never be forgotten.
I just whipped out a trunks drawing as a tribute. I haven’t drawn dragon ball fanart in almost 2 decades but his influence on me as an artist is incomprehensible. It’s mind boggling to know his hand will never put pencil to paper again. Rest easy Toriyama Sensei
It’s been extremely difficult for me. It’s lonely too because I don’t have many friends to share my grief with. I grew up in Japan and I was exposed to Dragon Ball in 2007 at age 8, then the orange Z box set. I’ve been looking at my figures, my copy of Raging Blast, and just old drawings I made as a kid growing up. It’s so hard dealing with this and ik im not alone here. I’ve never felt this way about a celebrity since Kevin Conroy. Thank you for everything Akira Toriyama. (Not even Naruto or One Piece can hold a candle)..been listing to openings on repeat.
Rest in peace Toriyama-sensei. 🙏😢
Great to see your tribute video on him bonsai
Like many people Dragon Ball was the first anime I ever watched, it's a huge part of my childhood. I've grown not to like myself as I grew older, becoming an older bitter soul by the day. If one thing keeps me grounded and "happy" it's the two hobbies I have in my life, and of them is anime. I don't know if I would've ever gotten into it if it wasn't for Dragon Ball, if it wasn't for Akira. So for the person who introduced me to this wonderful world of animation that I love so much and the reason I can still feel that kid like happiness, I grieve.
Toriyama-san had such a positive impact on my life. I wouldn’t be where I am today without him. Without DragonBall. His death has hit me so hard. Only comfort is knowing how much this genius meant to so many.
Toriyama-san. Thank you. I never met you. But you helped raise me into who I am today. I can never repay you. Thank you.
Aside from Gundam, Toriyama-sensei’s approach to rendering mech and machinery is absolutely phenomenal ☝🏽
I used to draw just Dragonball characters non-stop, back in high school
Fun times indeed… Thank you, for the memories, Akira-san
Akira Toriyama has been a part of my childhood even until today as I share stories about Goku and his friends to my kids... He's works and legacy will remain in everyone's hearts... May he rest in peace....
Rest easy.
His epic helped me find the strength to train martial arts..
His inspiration to people's personal life through his art is invaluable.
The world lost one of its greatest heroes.
I don't think we'll get anyone of this influence anytime soon. Rip you absolute legend.
There’s no better time to go than the year of the dragon
Akira Toriyama work 100 percent saved my life. Theirs been times where I lost everything important to me. Dragonball taught me I can ruse up from the darkness, to fight when the light at the end of the tunnel was not insight.
Dragonball inspired me to get into martal arts, find some spiritualy threw its influence in Daoism.
My to mention how i spiring his art is. Thank you Akira Toriyama. Rest in peace
Akira toriyama maybe gone, but the legacy he has left, the joy he had brought to so many people will never be forgotten!
R.I.P Akira Toriyama 😢
# one last time: Ka--me--ha--me--HAAAAA!!
Toriyamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Ka-meee-haaaa-meeeeeeHAHHHHH
Dude inspired my drawing style. Influenced so many people, incredible legacy ❤
Rest in peace Akira Toriyama
It was never the most popular series in the US, but I loved Dragon Quest Monsters (Dragon Warrior Monsters) growing up. I loved the monster designs so much and it was always so nice seeing new games still being made with all new Toriyama designs that all felt like they could've been in any game of the series. Knowing I'll never get to see a new Toriyama design ever again is heartbreaking.
I may not have been keeping up with the videos. But this reminds me why I originally subscribed. You show a passion and love for the medium that I think very few people genuinely show on this site. Keep up the good work man. I totally agree that Akira Toriyama also had a huge impact in my life.
I remember watching a sailor Sailor Moon on UPN nine and it was on CVS in the 90s and then switched to tsunami. Nobody really remembers that I was born in early 90s.
Rip Akira Toriyama thank you for your positive impact on the world,I have fond memories of watching Dragon Ball,Dragon Ball Z, in the 90s and 2000s thanks to Toonami.
I was thinking about og Dragon ball when I was in the bank today. Then just when I lay down to check out what's happening on anitube I learned this. I have tears right now.
This was actually quite beautiful commentary. Thank you 🧋
People are mourning around the world and it honestly hurts to see. I wish that headline was a bad joke.
Hey man thank you so much for taking the time to make this video and expressing what you're going through I like so many have been a fan of Dragon Ball since I was a kid I learned how to draw because of staring at his characters constantly! After finding out that he passed on the 7th of March I quickly realized that this year is the year of the Dragon and I found comfort in realizing that Rest In Paradise Akira Toriyama🐉🙏🏼🥲
It is something beyond words to have lost him. Still processing it.
Thank you, a lot of immediate video covering his death were people just doing thier job as news anchors, needed someone whose whole being was influenced by his legacy. RIP Akira toriyama
Thank you for this
Thanks for sharing
It reminds when other people talk about Michelangelo Buonarotti or Leonardo da Vinci. Their work will stay in the world forever. I also admire their work as Akira Toriyama´s work, but as you know, nobody is immortal.
