...Yeah, gonna binge on Dr. Slump because that stuff was just as amazing as DB and need some light humor to get through this.
Akira Toriyama (R.I.P.)
"Good-bye. Good luck. Good riddance."
What's going to happen to Dragon ball is it now going to be in the hands of Toyotaro. What is he going to now without Akira's input?

Ichigo: What even *are* you?!
Kenpachi: Some say my mother was a train. Some say that I'm a rejected Godzilla monster too strong for the series canon. But everyone says: I'M THE KEEEEENPACHIIIIII!!!!
Not a fun thing to wake up to.
Rest in piece to a legend whose influence shaped an entire genre, brought joy and excitement to several generations of fans and inspires artists in all walks of life.
"Move well, study well, play well, eat well, rest well - That is the turtle master way." - Akira Toriyama
I wonder if Rumbles would even exist without Toriyama. The man's influence simply cannot be overstated. Every account you hear of him from peers paints the picture of a kind, generous and supportive man.
I started watching Dragonball Z when I was my son's age. He got into DB about two years ago and never looked back. It's been a joy to revisit my old favourite with my son, and we read the new manga every month and talk about it. We play the games every week. I told him this morning about Toriyama and he cried. As a fan and a dad, this news is killing me. He was the best.
I feel like with Akira now gone Dragon Quest 12 is going to be the last Dragon Quest game done by Yuji Horii.

Fern, just leave her there. It's the only way she'll learn.

Sad to hear about Toriyama reminding us of our mortality, I was barely into the series anymore but the influence was undeniable.
