Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball manga is genius and on this episode of the anatomy of manga we're here to uncover why this is the case.
It's come to my attention recently that a lot of people don't know what makes a manga function in an academic and visual sense. Nowadays people seem to understand what makes a story work effectively more so than any other point in history. This is wonderful. However this is not true for the visuals. So much theory is involved in constructing a good manga or comic book page and today I want to explore with you all what exactly that looks like... or at least cover the fundamentals of such. I hope you enjoy our trip through Akira Toriyama's outstanding Dragon Ball manga!

    The techniques and style Toriyama put into the Manga is what makes it among my favorites

    Glad you took the time to discuss how great Toriyama was at creating the panels and artwork the Dragon Ball Manga. Toriyama is a legend!

    Love this! Clarity is a BIG Thing for me too. At times u read a Manga & the story & art are really good, But I may have to reread pages Cuz Idk WTF is goin on during Chaotic Battles. All the Black & white affects it negatively at times, But manga like OG Dragon Ball, One Punch Man, Berserk, Kengan Ashura/ Omega I can follow easily cuz the panels breathe & give a clear flow of action. Honestly for some cases if the Manga is great & easy to follow I'll prefer it over an Anime cause I can read way faster than I can watch something & time is really important to me these days.

    The beginning page made me look at Dragon Ball in a way l've never looked at it before: Through body language. Radits is triumphant, Piccolo is hesistant, and Goku is determined despite it all. A good summary of their character, in my opinion. Fascinating stuff.

    For anyone interested, I heavily recommend reading Akira Toriyama’s Manga Theater, it contains a bunch of manga he had written before and after Dragon Ball and you truly get to see his art skills evolve into what it is today

    Finally someone talks about the paneling, people only talk about the writing when paneling is really important to manga storytelling. People will talk about how amazing animation is, but not many people talk about paneling, probably because they don’t have the same passion for comics that they do for animation.

    People also need to give credit to Toriyama's first hit, Dr. Slump. For a silly gag manga it probably has some of the best title pages Toriyama ever drew.

    There's a reason why Toriyama said Toyotaro is too safe with his art when it comes to the DBS manga. He needs to take more risks with his work. He's getting better but I'd love to see him take more risks as the DB manga is incredible in paneling and action.

    He is, without a doubt, a legend. Rest in peace Akira Toriyama ! Your works and art-style will live on forever !
