Thank you Akira Toriyama, for building our childhood. And telling the story of how a young lower class Saiyan became the greatest icon in all of Anime history.
“ The goal is not to live forever, it is to create something that will.” - Akira Toriyama. I will always wish I could have met him , but regardless his works will continue to inspire me and many others for eternity.
On this day we are brothers, forever joined through a great story and a great man. RIP to the Godfather of Manga and anime. His influence and work will ring out for centuries to come!
I remember when I was in elementary grade. Our teacher told us to choose a particular topic that interests us and make a report about it. And then, I decided to create a report about the Dragon ball anime series. Well , it is as you expected that everyone will laugh at my work. But my teacher literally cried cause it makes her remember the time she first watch the series and saved her from killing herself. She was depressed and she said that this anime series saved her. Akira Toriyama is a warrior and a legend. I thank you as well for giving us the best childhood ever. ❤❤❤ SOAR HIGH and REST IN PEACE.
Here lies a teacher, a mentor, a legend, the father of anime, the father of manga, a sensei, a creator, and a person who had created a family of people who love his work, a doorway of escaping reality and going on a heart-felt story of a boy who grew up into the face of hard work and breaking limits. Rest in power, Akira Toriyama, keep training with King kai 🙌 Take our energy and break your limits. KAMEHAMEHA!!!!!!!!!!
@Luke_wait_for_it_marengo no problem. Dragon ball was my escape from school, and to hear the creator passed away broke me, so I decided to pay my respects to the man.
Every moment. Every fight. Every step. Growing up with this show not only taught me to be stronger. But WHY. For your friends. Family. The people standing beside you in some of your worst moments. Akria Toriyama created not just the anime Superman we know and love. He created a legend one that lasted through generations. Rest well, and be at peace knowing we will fight on, with your hopes and ambitions in our hearts.
I believe that this was Akira telling us that his time was coming close when he did this scene with master Roshi. Rest In Peace and hope you are making people smile even in the afterlife like you made us every single day. KAMEHAMEHA!!!!!!!!!!
Dragonball has been there for me up until about 6 years ago, when I didn't need to keep it to myself and my kiddo started watching it with me. She's the only one that ever took interest in it with me once I graduated. Toriyama built this world that my siblings and I grew up loving, my daughter and I love and that goes so much further than I think anyone realizes. I'll be eternally grateful to him.
Goodbye Akira Toriyama. You gave us some of the most memorable characters. The gentle, yet strong Gohan, the serious family man, Piccolo, The prideful Prince of the Saiyans, Vegeta, and most importantly, the Saiyan raised on Earth, Son Goku. Thank you for the memories Mr. Toriyama. Your legacy will be remembered as one of the best manga artists and the creator of the one and only..... Dragon Ball. Edit: 637 likes?? I didn't know i would express my feelings about this legend and expect all of you guys to agree! Edit 2: 857 likes!? I didn't know all you people agreed with how I described Mr. Toriyama and his characters this much! Edit 3 (final): Thank you for 1k likes everyone, I meant all of this as a tribute for Mr. Toriyama. He inspired me to work as an artist and train myself to become better. Remember everyone; work hard, study well, eat and sleep plenty, and stay safe.... that is the Turtle Hermit way! Thank you yet again, and rest easy everyone. Fly high Akira Toriyama... and have fun with King Kai! 🕊
I may have just turned 12 but when my dad showed me dragon ball z for the first time I became obsessed. For 4 years I have grown to become a huge fan of Dragon ball watching all the movies and shows which changed me forever. When I heard that you passed away it was almost as if frieza blew me up instead of krillin. You truly gave me a zenkai boost and I've always been beyond grateful for that. If I could gather all 7 dragon balls I would use them to bring you back. As mine and the generations to come grow old I promise we will carry on your legacy. Thankyou
He would be really proud of you for saying that, but the Dragon Balls can't revive someone who passes of natural causes. Just know he's happy where he is. He wouldn't have it any other way. He always said "The goal is not to live forever, but to create something that does" and I think he did, you existing at all is proof he did.
He was a hero to millions. He gave us some of the best adventures we’ve ever had in our lives and helped inspire others to do the same. Without him, there wouldn’t be so many stories, worlds and their own adventures in the world today.
@@STH151NicoleFan and he and the creator of Sailor Moon and several others paved way for us in the US to enjoy anime. I shudder to think of it wouldn’t have hit in the 90s what we’d be watching now. And as an adult I still watch anime because it’s amazing … stories. We all have them and if we all shared our ideas I’m sure the world would have more in store for us .
To the man that single-handedly created a series that shaped my life and so many others and changed shounen anime forever. May you rest in peace in other world Akira Toriyama.
I promise to keep this story alive to my sons in the future, the story and the one who created it . Even if the name of Dragon Ball fades in the future generations.
Toriyama gave us one of the best protagonists in the world. A friend. A true hero. A pure hearted soul. A rival/ friend to the world's greatest superhero. Son Goku. Thank you Toriyama Sensei. You made the greatest impact.
it's been about half a year since Akira Toriyama passed. i found your incredible remixes of many dbz songs recently, and only just now listened to this. this series i grew up with, crying seeing these visuals in this video, it makes me realize i'm still processing it. thank you for this.
You’re welcome 💜 Thank you for sharing your experience with my tribute, it made my cry a lot when I made the music and edited the video together. And I’m also really happy and grateful that you’ve been connecting with my channel
when i heard that akira died , I felt like i lost someone really important to me , i know how hard it is to lose someone especially who built your childhood and gave you inspiration and made you happy . I'm 21 years old but i still watch dragon ball over and over again that i cry with joy and i feel like I misses it so much , I never met akira but I always felt like he was in my heart , I will forever be greatfull to you akira and I will share this story to my sons and my grandsons ..REST IN PEACE AKIRA YOU MAY BE GONE BUT YOU WILL ALWAYS STAY IN MY HEART THANK YOU
It’s been over a month and I still have a hard time seeing tributes like this without crying. Toriyama really shaped alot of our lives in one way or another. I’m not someone that normally gets overly emotional over a celebrity’s death, but his work is such a big part of my life that it almost feels like I lost a close friend. Thanks for everything.
It’s been 4 months, and I still hardly believe this legend of a man passed. He will never truly die, not in our hearts. For he is the father of anime, and his inspiration in others, and the inspiration that those he inspired, lives on in the art that we love to enjoy
Don't forget his hardwork on the dragon quest artwork aswell.....just playing dragon quest 3 HD-2D.....damn it's amazing snd makes it more awesome he created all the characters and enemies and even NPC designs for the game
The most iconic anime ever. Goodbye akira toriyama Rest in peace (5 april 1955 - 1 March 2024) And one more thing: happy birthday, it's a pity that you're still 68...
Rest in peace, Toriyama sensei. Your work has and will go on to inspire generations of children. You dont understand how much i love and deeply appreciate this video. I've spent my whole childhood watching this show, and it has made me who i am today. The themes of dragon ball are so warm, and you arranged them perfectly. This honestly brought me to tears, thank you! Dragon ball forever!
dragon ball shows us that we can overcome problems and get stronger in the end. Goku faces a problem in every saga, and always overcame it. In the cell saga, Goku dies, but tells the gang that he wants to stay in other world, and hopes for the best of them. Akira Toriyama is like this in a way, and it's heartwarming.
@@Gum-s7x I'm still not finished but I'm getting pretty close. Feels like I got bored in the first Saga and then enjoyed it more from the Baby Saga onwards. Saw it a long time ago but I forgot the Baby Saga was actually pretty solid compared to the rest of it.
Goodbye Akria Toriyama. You and dragon ball made my childhood so great, and I just wanna say thank you. You inspired me to do so much. I and others will miss you, but your legacy will never be forgotten.
"Akira Toryiama, thanks." "For what; I should be the one thanking the community" "Nah, what do you mean? I loved every minute of the DB franschise." "Goodbye, legend..."
Goodbye, old friend. La primera vez que vi dragon ball era un niño que iba a la eschela y corria a toda velocidad para llegar a casa para verlo y muchas veces me quede a mitad de camino viendolo en casa de algun amigo. Para mi el mejor anime de todos los tiempos.
Goku: Why don't we use the Dragon Balls to wish him back? Me: You guys have used the Dragon Balls to wish people back from the dead many times, but sadly, this is one wish that can't be granted. It's Sad but True. Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama.
we all learned so much from dragonball and from goku ie compassion, 2nd chances, never giving up when the odds are against you, sacrifice, even some of the worst people are not beyond redemption, etc
I was sobbing just a little but smiling until seeing the moment with Goku teleporting in front of Cell and just giving Gohan a loving smile before teleporting Cell away. That was the moment when I just started crying a lot. This tribute is fantastic, from the little kid who started it all to the loveable goofball that became iconic worldwide. From the evil green alien to the amazing and caring foster parent to Gohan. From the prideful prince of saiyans to the amazing family man that learned the importance of having someone worth fighting for. And I could go on for ages with all these fantastic characters Toriyama gave us. RiP Toriyama-sensei, and thank you for everything. Your legacy will live on in millions of fans, both in the present and the future.
As someone who has been a fan of Dragon Ball for 4 years, never have i been so attached to this franchise. I finished DBZ recently and all I could do was smile and appreciate Toriyama's storytelling. And his influence has been astounding from the anime/manga industry and the gaming industry too. Thank you Toriyama. Thanks for being an inspiration to others and thank you for being apart of many people's childhoods
What a nice tribute to Toriyama-Sensei! The last picture alone conveys so many emotions. The story of Dragon Ball is fantastically summarized visually. The world stands united. Best regards from Germany
I started watching the series when I was when I was 13 or 14 years old I started watching the original it hit me in the heart because of what Goku had gone through and at the time I was being bullied because of my ADHD and it helped me get through that when I heard that greater passed away just shattered because it was a part of my childhood that helped me get through the roughest days of middle school and high school
Thank you Akira Toriyama for the best childhood. You made a masterpiece of an anime that I hope keeps going on and growing. To continue and honor his legacy. RIP to a legend.
Thank you Akira for wonderful Memories and Moments. Until this Day Dragon Ball is in my Heart and watch it like once a Year (DB and DBZ) Thanks for the wonderful Journey you took us to. May you rest in Peace my Friend
Thank you Akira Toriyama for everything, although he wrote Dragon Ball, it’s because of him that so many other anime exist today, it’s because a lot of manga writers were inspired by him, he really became a legend.
OMG I am so proud of you my son. What a beautiful tribute to an incredible human being. Thank you Toriyama for walking alongside James, especially during the most difficult periods of his life, it is your creation that continues to inspire his greatest work. Rest in peace🙏
wow... of all the videos, this one made me cry hard... I cried like a child when I watched Dragonball, Dragonball Z... Today I watch Dragonball super, with my 2 children, Arthur aged 11, and Miguel aged 14 , and I can say with all the sincerity in the world, it is one of the best feelings I have ever had. I did my part, I passed on to my children the love of seeing this work of art. Thank you Akira, you marked my life and even though you are absent in body, your legacy continues to be passed from generation to generation.
Akira Toriyama, rest well you’ve created something truly beautiful, something that has inspired generations, something that has brought joy to many across the globe, something that will be remembered for ages to come, rest.🕊️🪦💐💐💐
A franchise that broke the internet, made godlike revenue, and an infinite fandom. No other series will come close, whether show, movie, or game. Akira didn't create a legacy but a dynasty. We used to be made fun of for watching shows like this when we were young, now everyone for the most part understands why it's the first thing people talk about when you hear the word anime. Thank you Toriyama for making a series that encourages us to never give up, cherish your loved ones and always strive to be better. Thank you for inspiring the world.
I will always remember watching Dragon Ball Z with my grandmother. She was a big fan. I would tell her, “hey grandma, watch me go Super Saiyan.” As I proceeded to scream in the same pose as Goku when he first turned SSJ against Frieza. She always got a kick out of it. Miss those days, and miss you every day grandma. Thank you Akira. I will never forget the impact you had on my life. ❤️🐉
One or the best tribute to our forever sensei ! Still watching and listening this months after Akira Toriyama sensei passed away… Always with heart wounds, mind full of sadness and eyes full of tears. Be sure I will share your legacy to my son and daughter. My eternal respect for this legend. From a French fan, my deepest condolences to my japaneses and around the world counterparts. Still let awake the super saiyajin in you and share Akira’s values around you. 🙇♂️
people sleeping on you at the moment Gladius i feel like you'll be big early next year if not this year, this was a beautifull tribute to Akira Toyrama-sama. May he finally rest in peace
Thank you for making this sensational goosebumps inducing video bro. You've done enough to make me, an adult cry his a** off. Thank you Toriyama Sensei for making this wonderful, inspirational masterpiece 🔥🥺
i cant beleive its been a month already that my hero is gone he made my child hood and adult hood what it is today i cant not express how much i miss this man never met him and yet i feel like i knew him thank you akira toriyama sensei You will be missed and loved forever thank you for everything.
Goodbye Akira sensei. Your work and your story will be remember for generations to come. And we, the fans will continue pushing this gift, the legacy you have created for the world that has changed millions of us.
Dragon ball is probably the best thing that has ever happened to me. It changed my life for the better and its now one of the center pieces of life. Im going to miss Akira so much. Goodbye Toriyama-san. Your work will be forever remembered. And this tribute shows that.
Thank you for making me cry even after almost a year of his passing. Every time i hit bumps on the road of my life Dragon Ball inspires me to get back up and go on. Even now when I'm 30 Dragon Ball is something i keep going back to.
I'm Quite Literally Crying Right Now Because This Is One Of My Favorite Dragon Ball songs and now it's a balled for the creator of this legendary franchise Rest In Peace Toriyama Sensei And Thank You For All You've Done 😭🕊️❤️
Your sentiment and dedication shine through in this tribute, especially after reading the description. It's remarkable how Toriyama's creation has inspired a legion of talented individuals like GLADIUS to come together and celebrate his enduring legacy. He must certainly feel proud. Keep up the incredible work, and let's continue to spread positivity and appreciation for the legacy of Toriyama's creations🙏 Here's all the references I could catch: 0:00 - Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku 0:55 - DBKai Vegeta's Sacrifice/DBS Universes Restored 1:22 - Makafushigi Adventure 1:57 - We were Angels/Boku-Tachi Wa Tenshi Datta 2:25 - Super Saiyan 3 Theme 3:03 - Compromise/Farewell Trunks DBS 4:39 - DBKai Vegeta's Sacrifice/DBS Universes Restored 5:13 - Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku
I never thought I'd actually be brought to tears for once. But yeah man. Akira Toriyama, the Legend, One of a Kind artist and creator many of us probably didn't deserve. But because of his dedication and passion, we were brought characters, who helped to shape the earlier parts of our lives. I for one, grew up watching Dragon Ball, from 1995 to this very day. Despite what anyone would say about the characters, the story, or even the designs. He never truly failed to satisfy the audience. Taking such a lifelong journey with Goku, Bulma, Master Roshi, Krillin, ChiChi, Dindei, Piccolo, and Tien. Yamcha, Chiotzu, Oolong, Trunks, Goten, Hercule, Videl and Pan, the newly arrived Bulla, Launch, Freiza, Cell, Buu, Beerus, Whis, the Grand Priest, and all the others I didn't name. It goes to show the journey was well traveled, and though the trip has ended for our faithful turtle hermit, I know he's likely left his work, in the hands of someone who will honor his memory, while keeping the Dragon Balls around for just a while longer, so we can continue to ask Shenron....for just one more wish. Before we truly have to say goodbye...Sensei 🙇♂️ 🙏
No words can describe the impact Akira Toriyama had on so many people's lives, he may not have even been aware of the astronomical impact he's had on so many people's lives, but he should be proud of the impact he has had in not only Manga but the entire world. This symphony truly lives up to the title "symphony", it's absolutely beautiful. I pray that Toriyama-Sensei rests in peace, and may the Otherworld accept him with loving arms.
say all you want, but Dan Dan Kokoro is hands down the best opening to Tribute Akira Toriyama, how the opening represents our journey of this franchise. I can't stop capturing the image of how this song tells you that he may be gone, but the legacy still continues to give us all hope that dragon ball will never die. And he wanted us to enjoy every last bit of his masterpiece. Thank you, for making this symphony...this opening will always be in my heart. GT ending shows us Goku's farewell is just exactly how Toriyama telling us his goodbye 🐉🐲
From a random fella in mississippi, thank you Toriyama for this magical series that I’ll cherish for the rest of my life. This composition is lovely ❤😢
I hope, wherever Toriyama is, that he sees the impact and gravitas of the stories he's told throughout the years, the lives he's touched and changed forever. I hope he rests easy, knowing that we'll carry the lessons he taught us to heart and always give it our all. It would be a disservice to ourselves, our dreams, and to the people we love. Rest in peace, sensei, your legacy will live on through us.
Its just like techoblade all over again... Thank you Toriyama for what you have given us, you made history and you shall never be forgotten R.I.P Toriyama for everything you gave us... 🧡💙
I just listened to this yesterday night. And honestly i cried, i couldn't stop crying because i realized that his work made me love anime so much but especially dragon ball. It has a real special place in my heart and when i heard he was gone. I broke down in tears as i wished i would've loved to meet him and tell him what an influence he put on me. Rest in peace toriyama. We all see you up in the heavens smiling as you see the community youve made by your goregous work 🥹
I thank God every day for having absolute legends like Akira Toriyama walk among us. The way they revolutionize their respective fields is truly something to behold. While millions grieve his loss, his stories will always live on in our hearts and minds. The reaper's scythe comes for us all in the end. I knew that the torch would have to be passed on eventually, but his passing still felt like a massive gut punch. It may've felt too soon for him to go, but like I said before, he deserves his spot in heaven for creating one of the biggest masterpiece series in all of anime and manga, and inspiring countless millions to always push forward and strive for more, alongside Goku and his friends. Rest in peace, King. You will be missed.
Thank you for making my life a little less tough. Thank you for teaching me to never give up hope, get back up and move on. Thank you for making my Childhood a special one.
Dragon Ball Z for me is what brought me into anime, first experience was seeing Goku turn SSJ... It was absolutely majestic. From there on I binged the entire DB and DBZ, started watching other anime like Berserk and such (It was like 2007, bless the computer and websites lol). To me - Toriyama's works shaped me, from the philosophy of training to transformations being my favorite thing. Thank you Akira Toriyama, for everything you've done. And damn man, this peace definitely hits hard, tear level hard.
Loved this, Rest in peace Akira Toriyama. Thank you, sir, for giving us our years of growth from adolescent children to adults who still love your show. You raised an entire generation to not give up and keep striving. May your soul carry on to other anime and watch over us with your big smile in the sky.
My kids were outside today playing Trunks and piccolo, the same way I did with my brothers when I was a Child, Thank you Akira Toriyama San - For Everything .
Thank you Akira Toriyama, for building our childhood. And telling the story of how a young lower class Saiyan became the greatest icon in all of Anime history.
Indeed, and also thanks to release my entire childhood of Dragon Ball

Dragonball has been there for me up until about 6 years ago, when I didn't need to keep it to myself and my kiddo started watching it with me. She's the only one that ever took interest in it with me once I graduated.

It’s been 4 months, and I still hardly believe this legend of a man passed. He will never truly die, not in our hearts. For he is the father of anime, and his inspiration in others, and the inspiration that those he inspired, lives on in the art that we love to enjoy
Don't forget his hardwork on the dragon quest artwork aswell.....just playing dragon quest 3 HD-2D.....damn it's amazing snd makes it more awesome he created all the characters and enemies and even NPC designs for the game
The most iconic anime ever. Goodbye akira toriyama
Rest in peace (5 april 1955 - 1 March 2024)
And one more thing: happy birthday, it's a pity that you're still 68...
❤Rip to the man that single handedly put shonen anime on the map. Not even the likes of Osamu Tezuka could do that.
Rest in peace, Toriyama sensei. Your work has and will go on to inspire generations of children.
You dont understand how much i love and deeply appreciate this video. I've spent my whole childhood watching this show, and it has made me who i am today. The themes of dragon ball are so warm, and you arranged them perfectly. This honestly brought me to tears, thank you! Dragon ball forever!
I very much appreciate you sharing your love for this 💜 I put everything I had into making this video and your reaction is beautiful 🥹
dragon ball shows us that we can overcome problems and get stronger in the end. Goku faces a problem in every saga, and always overcame it. In the cell saga, Goku dies, but tells the gang that he wants to stay in other world, and hopes for the best of them. Akira Toriyama is like this in a way, and it's heartwarming.
Remember everyone. If your crying it doesn't make you weak. That just means your love for Dragonball is strong. R I.P Toriyama....
cant believe we are 1 week away from last ride that toriyama sensei gave us
Anyone else started rewatching Dragon Ball again? From the ground up.
The truth
Im now on the GT.
@@luisnascimento6690 Me too!
Am actually going to watch gt now
@@Gum-s7x I'm still not finished but I'm getting pretty close. Feels like I got bored in the first Saga and then enjoyed it more from the Baby Saga onwards. Saw it a long time ago but I forgot the Baby Saga was actually pretty solid compared to the rest of it.
Thank you Akira Toriyama for everything you gave me in my childhood
I learnt that as long as you keep at it, you will reach your destination. Keep working even if everyone tells you it is impossible.
I’ve got goosebumps for this piece of artwork.. Rip Akira Toriyama🙏🏻
Goodbye Akria Toriyama. You and dragon ball made my childhood so great, and I just wanna say thank you. You inspired me to do so much. I and others will miss you, but your legacy will never be forgotten.
"Akira Toryiama, thanks."
"For what; I should be the one thanking the community"
"Nah, what do you mean? I loved every minute of the DB franschise."
"Goodbye, legend..."
uffff that hits hard....:(
Well said 🥲🥲🥲
THANK YOU AKIRA TORIYAMA FOR CARRYING OUR CHILD HOOD 😇😇😇😇😇😇
Goodbye, old friend.
La primera vez que vi dragon ball era un niño que iba a la eschela y corria a toda velocidad para llegar a casa para verlo y muchas veces me quede a mitad de camino viendolo en casa de algun amigo. Para mi el mejor anime de todos los tiempos.
I'm just here with the rest of the DB family, reminiscing about the good times. RIP Akira Toriyama ❤🕊
thank you Akira Toriyama, for building our childhood. :-)so goood dragon ball :-)
Goku: Why don't we use the Dragon Balls to wish him back?
Me: You guys have used the Dragon Balls to wish people back from the dead many times, but sadly, this is one wish that can't be granted. It's Sad but True. Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama.
we all learned so much from dragonball and from goku ie compassion, 2nd chances, never giving up when the odds are against you, sacrifice, even some of the worst people are not beyond redemption, etc
Akira Toriyama and the legacy he left behind prove that you don't have to wish on the Dragon Balls to be truly immortal.
RIP akira Toriyama and thank you for encouraging all of us to be strong and respect each other
I was sobbing just a little but smiling until seeing the moment with Goku teleporting in front of Cell and just giving Gohan a loving smile before teleporting Cell away. That was the moment when I just started crying a lot. This tribute is fantastic, from the little kid who started it all to the loveable goofball that became iconic worldwide. From the evil green alien to the amazing and caring foster parent to Gohan. From the prideful prince of saiyans to the amazing family man that learned the importance of having someone worth fighting for. And I could go on for ages with all these fantastic characters Toriyama gave us.
RiP Toriyama-sensei, and thank you for everything. Your legacy will live on in millions of fans, both in the present and the future.
I cried while editing that part together! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings 💜 RIP
This part got me a little bit too. O didn't cry but I felt it
@@GladiusThemes this makes the ending of once upon a studio look lame
As someone who has been a fan of Dragon Ball for 4 years, never have i been so attached to this franchise. I finished DBZ recently and all I could do was smile and appreciate Toriyama's storytelling. And his influence has been astounding from the anime/manga industry and the gaming industry too. Thank you Toriyama. Thanks for being an inspiration to others and thank you for being apart of many people's childhoods
What a nice tribute to Toriyama-Sensei! The last picture alone conveys so many emotions. The story of Dragon Ball is fantastically summarized visually. The world stands united. Best regards from Germany
It was an honor to put this together ☺️
@@GladiusThemes This honor is all yours. Fantastic! :)
It's the best arrangement of tribute music for Akira Toriyama sensei. I love to listen it again and again.
Thank you.
Thank you for a awesome childhood rest in otherworld big guy
I started watching the series when I was when I was 13 or 14 years old I started watching the original it hit me in the heart because of what Goku had gone through and at the time I was being bullied because of my ADHD and it helped me get through that when I heard that greater passed away just shattered because it was a part of my childhood that helped me get through the roughest days of middle school and high school
The last tournament really is the grand finale... This universe lives on
Dragon Ball will forever be Legendary
Akira Toriyama may be Gone, but his Legacy is Everlasting
Thank you Toriyama-sensei
_Until we meet Again_ 🕊🐉❤
鳥山先生と同じ時を過ごせたことに感謝と祈り捧げます
Thank you Akira Toriyama for the best childhood. You made a masterpiece of an anime that I hope keeps going on and growing. To continue and honor his legacy. RIP to a legend.
Thank you Akira for wonderful Memories and Moments. Until this Day Dragon Ball is in my Heart and watch it like once a Year (DB and DBZ)
Thanks for the wonderful Journey you took us to.
May you rest in Peace my Friend
Dragon ball, Dragon ball z, Dragon ball super, broly, super heroes, and so much more. Thank you Akira Toriyama for all of it. Rest in peace
Don't forget about dragon ball gt
Thank you Akira Toriyama for everything, although he wrote Dragon Ball, it’s because of him that so many other anime exist today, it’s because a lot of manga writers were inspired by him, he really became a legend.
OMG I am so proud of you my son. What a beautiful tribute to an incredible human being. Thank you Toriyama for walking alongside James, especially during the most difficult periods of his life, it is your creation that continues to inspire his greatest work. Rest in peace🙏
iam very sorry for your loss, Ma'am i know Gladius,his father died........
R. I. P
5 months later and this still brings a tear to my eye, thank you toriyama sensei for all that you helped me through
wow... of all the videos, this one made me cry hard... I cried like a child when I watched Dragonball, Dragonball Z... Today I watch Dragonball super, with my 2 children, Arthur aged 11, and Miguel aged 14 , and I can say with all the sincerity in the world, it is one of the best feelings I have ever had. I did my part, I passed on to my children the love of seeing this work of art. Thank you Akira, you marked my life and even though you are absent in body, your legacy continues to be passed from generation to generation.
Thank you Akira for the strength you gave me with your masterpieces, Dragon Ball took away my fear and will accompany me forever.
Ty for completing our childhood days we never forget you Mr.akira
Rest in Peace Akira Toriyama and Thank you for creating The Dragon Ball Franchise you will Forever be in our Hearts ❤😊
Akira Toriyama, rest well you’ve created something truly beautiful, something that has inspired generations, something that has brought joy to many across the globe, something that will be remembered for ages to come, rest.🕊️🪦💐💐💐
Rest in piece Akira. Thank you for a show that's stayed with me all the way to my middle aged journey.
Rest in Peace to one of the greatest mangakas of all time, may you live happily in heaven while your legacy lives on.
A franchise that broke the internet, made godlike revenue, and an infinite fandom. No other series will come close, whether show, movie, or game. Akira didn't create a legacy but a dynasty. We used to be made fun of for watching shows like this when we were young, now everyone for the most part understands why it's the first thing people talk about when you hear the word anime. Thank you Toriyama for making a series that encourages us to never give up, cherish your loved ones and always strive to be better. Thank you for inspiring the world.
Dan Dan was a prefect way to start and end this track. We truly appreciate this, rest in peace Akira toriyama.
I will always remember watching Dragon Ball Z with my grandmother. She was a big fan. I would tell her, “hey grandma, watch me go Super Saiyan.” As I proceeded to scream in the same pose as Goku when he first turned SSJ against Frieza. She always got a kick out of it. Miss those days, and miss you every day grandma. Thank you Akira. I will never forget the impact you had on my life. ❤️🐉
One or the best tribute to our forever sensei ! Still watching and listening this months after Akira Toriyama sensei passed away… Always with heart wounds, mind full of sadness and eyes full of tears. Be sure I will share your legacy to my son and daughter. My eternal respect for this legend. From a French fan, my deepest condolences to my japaneses and around the world counterparts. Still let awake the super saiyajin in you and share Akira’s values around you. 🙇♂️
people sleeping on you at the moment Gladius i feel like you'll be big early next year if not this year, this was a beautifull tribute to Akira Toyrama-sama. May he finally rest in peace
🥹🙏 I appreciate the love. Rip to the legend

Goodbye Akira sensei. Your work and your story will be remember for generations to come. And we, the fans will continue pushing this gift, the legacy you have created for the world that has changed millions of us.
Dragon ball is probably the best thing that has ever happened to me. It changed my life for the better and its now one of the center pieces of life. Im going to miss Akira so much.
Goodbye Toriyama-san. Your work will be forever remembered. And this tribute shows that.
You and me both my friend
Thank you for making me cry even after almost a year of his passing. Every time i hit bumps on the road of my life Dragon Ball inspires me to get back up and go on. Even now when I'm 30 Dragon Ball is something i keep going back to.
I'm Quite Literally Crying Right Now Because This Is One Of My Favorite Dragon Ball songs and now it's a balled for the creator of this legendary franchise
Rest In Peace Toriyama Sensei And Thank You For All You've Done 😭🕊️❤️
This is just too beautiful. *Thank You Akira Toriyama.*
Your sentiment and dedication shine through in this tribute, especially after reading the description. It's remarkable how Toriyama's creation has inspired a legion of talented individuals like GLADIUS to come together and celebrate his enduring legacy. He must certainly feel proud. Keep up the incredible work, and let's continue to spread positivity and appreciation for the legacy of Toriyama's creations🙏

Where's the Chala Head Chala motif?
I never thought I'd actually be brought to tears for once. But yeah man. Akira Toriyama, the Legend, One of a Kind artist and creator many of us probably didn't deserve. But because of his dedication and passion, we were brought characters, who helped to shape the earlier parts of our lives. I for one, grew up watching Dragon Ball, from 1995 to this very day. Despite what anyone would say about the characters, the story, or even the designs. He never truly failed to satisfy the audience. Taking such a lifelong journey with Goku, Bulma, Master Roshi, Krillin, ChiChi, Dindei, Piccolo, and Tien. Yamcha, Chiotzu, Oolong, Trunks, Goten, Hercule, Videl and Pan, the newly arrived Bulla, Launch, Freiza, Cell, Buu, Beerus, Whis, the Grand Priest, and all the others I didn't name. It goes to show the journey was well traveled, and though the trip has ended for our faithful turtle hermit, I know he's likely left his work, in the hands of someone who will honor his memory, while keeping the Dragon Balls around for just a while longer, so we can continue to ask Shenron....for just one more wish. Before we truly have to say goodbye...Sensei 🙇♂️ 🙏
Thank you Akira Toriyama, for creating the Unforgettable anime, dragon ball.we will Always remember your Amazing story telling 😊❤
Thank you Akira for everything . You give us the great anime in the world 😢😢
No words can describe the impact Akira Toriyama had on so many people's lives, he may not have even been aware of the astronomical impact he's had on so many people's lives, but he should be proud of the impact he has had in not only Manga but the entire world. This symphony truly lives up to the title "symphony", it's absolutely beautiful. I pray that Toriyama-Sensei rests in peace, and may the Otherworld accept him with loving arms.
Beautiful, rest in peace Akira Toriyama. May you and your works be remember for future generations🙏
say all you want, but Dan Dan Kokoro is hands down the best opening to Tribute Akira Toriyama, how the opening represents our journey of this franchise. I can't stop capturing the image of how this song tells you that he may be gone, but the legacy still continues to give us all hope that dragon ball will never die. And he wanted us to enjoy every last bit of his masterpiece. Thank you, for making this symphony...this opening will always be in my heart. GT ending shows us Goku's farewell is just exactly how Toriyama telling us his goodbye 🐉🐲
From a random fella in mississippi, thank you Toriyama for this magical series that I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.
This composition is lovely ❤😢
I'm still crying... RIP Akira Sensei... Thank you for making our childhood awesome...
I hope, wherever Toriyama is, that he sees the impact and gravitas of the stories he's told throughout the years, the lives he's touched and changed forever. I hope he rests easy, knowing that we'll carry the lessons he taught us to heart and always give it our all. It would be a disservice to ourselves, our dreams, and to the people we love. Rest in peace, sensei, your legacy will live on through us.
Rest in peace Akira Toriyama you will always be remembered sir you gave such a gift to us we will never forget you
Its just like techoblade all over again...
Thank you Toriyama for what you have given us, you made history and you shall never be forgotten R.I.P Toriyama for everything you gave us... 🧡💙
I just listened to this yesterday night. And honestly i cried, i couldn't stop crying because i realized that his work made me love anime so much but especially dragon ball. It has a real special place in my heart and when i heard he was gone. I broke down in tears as i wished i would've loved to meet him and tell him what an influence he put on me. Rest in peace toriyama. We all see you up in the heavens smiling as you see the community youve made by your goregous work 🥹
Thank you for sharing your beautiful thoughts! 🥰🙏
But of course gladius. And I know toriyama would enjoy your remixes 😊
Akira Toriyama is a gem that is priceless a real diamond💎💎💎💎 no one can ever replace him 👑👑👑 he is a KING OF ALL
I thank God every day for having absolute legends like Akira Toriyama walk among us. The way they revolutionize their respective fields is truly something to behold. While millions grieve his loss, his stories will always live on in our hearts and minds. The reaper's scythe comes for us all in the end. I knew that the torch would have to be passed on eventually, but his passing still felt like a massive gut punch. It may've felt too soon for him to go, but like I said before, he deserves his spot in heaven for creating one of the biggest masterpiece series in all of anime and manga, and inspiring countless millions to always push forward and strive for more, alongside Goku and his friends. Rest in peace, King. You will be missed.
Thank you for making my life a little less tough.
Thank you for teaching me to never give up hope, get back up and move on.
Thank you for making my Childhood a special one.
Dragon Ball Z for me is what brought me into anime, first experience was seeing Goku turn SSJ... It was absolutely majestic. From there on I binged the entire DB and DBZ, started watching other anime like Berserk and such (It was like 2007, bless the computer and websites lol). To me - Toriyama's works shaped me, from the philosophy of training to transformations being my favorite thing. Thank you Akira Toriyama, for everything you've done.
And damn man, this peace definitely hits hard, tear level hard.
🥹💜🙏
Loved this, Rest in peace Akira Toriyama. Thank you, sir, for giving us our years of growth from adolescent children to adults who still love your show. You raised an entire generation to not give up and keep striving. May your soul carry on to other anime and watch over us with your big smile in the sky.
My kids were outside today playing Trunks and piccolo, the same way I did with my brothers when I was a Child, Thank you Akira Toriyama San - For Everything .
