Akira Toriyama Tribute

Originally posted on dA and Tumblr back in March 2024.


What can I say that hasn't been said by millions of people across the world already? This man not only gave us manga and anime classics, like Dragon Ball and Dr. Slump, but he also defined the look of an entire gaming franchise in Dragon Quest and classics like Chrono Trigger. Heck, his impact was so large, that we may not have had the "Big Three" of Shonen Jump(NarutoBLEACHOne Piece) without his influence. 


And we still have anime works to look forward to which had his involvement, such as Sand Land and Dragon Ball Daima. The only real shame is that won't be around to share in our joy for the worlds he creates. All the same, while the world may seem a lesser place without him, the impact he has left on the world has inspired many a generation, and it will not be forgotten for a long time.


Rest in Peace, Toriyama-sensei, and thank you for all you've done.
