Turtle: "You see, I'm a turtle." Bulma: "And what am I, BLIND!?!" Rest in peace, Akira! 🙏

RIP Mr. Toriyama. Thank you for all the great stories

I remember the first time I saw dragon ball. It was in my taekwondo class since they always had the tv on while we waited for the next session. I like so many kids was instantly hooked, and the Master himself came over and sat down to watch the episode with us. As a kid, it blew my mind to see an adult watch cartoons. Thank you Akira Toriyama for giving me this fond memory.

He taught us to always strive to surpass our limits… that there is strength in even the smallest of creatures… and that friendship and love is what we fight for…. RIP Toriyama, your journey on snake way has just begun !

Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger, Blue Dragon, DragonBall, Dr Slump and others. The man was a legend. Everything he did was loved. This was beautiful. Thank you.

Rest In Power Akira Toriyama

Dan Vasc has balls.......... Dragon balls.

As a Mexican fan Dragon Ball was the shit growing up in the 90s and still is a big deal in Mexico and the rest of the Latin America! Shonen Manga wouldn’t be what it is today without Toriyama-sensei! RIP Akira Toriyama!

RIP to a legend.

Godspeed Mr. Toriyama you will be missed.

i don't think we'd have Bleach, Naruto, InuYasha, Attack on Titan, or any other Shonen series without Dragon Ball laying down the foundation. thank you Akira Toriyama-san RIP

I don’t cry often… but when I heard the news I bawled for like an hour. He had such a huge impact on me. RIP Legend, GOAT, Toriyama-sensei 🙏🏻❤️

That ending part with Goku and Vegeta really got me, loved that scene in the movie and is absolutely perfect for the end of that tribute.

A touching tribute. But there’s one thing missing….. *Drags Sweet Baby Inc to the Shadow Realm* GHOST!

To the point she would make us popcorn and ask questions lol So thank you Nerdrotic for bringing back one of my favorite pastimes me and her had with this amazing tribute to this legend 🫡 -San Antonio, TEXAS

Hearing this song hurts right now, but that's okay. The pain I feel right now reminds me of all the good he brought me and so many others in our lives.

Excellent work,Pierry. Mr. Toriyama may be gone now but his legacy will live on forever in our Hearts and Minds. R.I.P. Akira Toriyama

I have always had some gripes with Post-Cell Saga Dragonball, but even at it's worst Dragonball was and shall remains leagues above so much of the competition. And Toriyama-san is a true artist and creator who's work will live long beyond us all. Rest in Peace and thank you for a wonderful childhood.

The transition at 2:19 ... a reminder that the art in its purest form is a reflection of the creator's soul. This is why we stand against censorship, either by studios or by DEI consultants.

Dragon Ball is beloved by so many people across the world. Toriyama inspired so many people to do so many different things ranging from learning to draw, getting fit, and everything between. God speed Toriyama, may you reach King Kai safely.

Akira Toriyama was such a legend, he didn't need the dragon balls to achieve immortality! He did it through his work. Rest in peace, Toriyama-sensei! Thank you for everything!

JRR Tolkien(Lord of the Rings), Andrzej Sapkowski(Witcher), Stan Lee(Marvel), George Lucas(Star Wars), Kenturo Miura(Berserk) and now Akira Toriyama(Dragon Ball). All revolutionary minds of fiction and of the greatest entertainment minds of all time. I bow in respect to Akira Toriyama for being one of the forerunners in bringing manga/anime to the western world and being a kid of the 90s you know that Dragon Ball has influenced the world in such a way that only a few creatives/artists could even achieve and Toriyama created art and his legacy will never be forgotten and now he is at peace.

This is an awesome tribute. Akira Toriyama will never be forgotten his work touched so many lives all over the world. May he rest in peace.🙂

Now THIS is a proper tribute!!! My very first experience of dragon ball was Tree of Might at 5 in the morning at my cousin's house lol. I woke up to a badass song playing, it was rock the dragon 🐉🐉🐉🐉 RIP Akira Toriyama, thank you for everything

If they made a quality, well-written, carefully casted, live-action Dragon Ball Z movie, I would die happy. R.I.P. Mr. Toriyama. ♥

Dragon Ball and DBZ were the first anime i ever watched as a kid... it was in spanish because it wasn't airing in the US yet. It was amazing and got me into anime. Now I've started to re watch it with my daughter. She loves every second if it... should have done that sooner. Rest well Toriyama.
