I wanted to know how everyday japanese people take the news, i mean everyone in the world is already extremly sad but for japanese it must hurt to another level
Yeah DBZ is big but people forget to mention his impact in the gaming world with Dragon Quest. Without Toriyama DQ would not even be close to what it is today an don't forget how hugely popular the DQ series is in JP. The dude will be sorely missed and will always be remembered for the memories he made in our childhood
It’s crazy because even as an American that was a kid in the early 2000’s, Akiri Toriyama’s influence impacted me for the rest of my life. Definitely was the kid that tried going super saiyan and actually did a kamehameha in my dream once. Thank you.
I as an American professional tattoo artist I am gutted, dragonball started ART for me as a whole as a child. Rest in peace Akira. You formed a few generations entire life ❤️
It's striking that even world leaders were affected by this tragic news. Dragon Ball is, and always will be, enormous. Thank you, Toriyama-sensei, and rest in paradise.
I never shed tears for celebs and haven’t shed tears in awhile for someone but Akira Toriyama is different must be even harder on his family member and close friends if he has most of the world who don’t know him him personally shedding tears for him too
It’s funny how not only did Toriyama inspire generations of manga artists and general artists, but he also inspired so many gyms bros with dragon ball and taught people to always work hard and strive.
The influence of Akira Toriyama affects more than just art and animation... sports, martial arts, mainstream pop culture have changed because of him. He was a once in a lifetime human being, there will never be another like him for at least a long while. Thank you, for everything, Akira Toriyama-sensei.
That news broke a piece of my heart. It was necessary for me to make a little tribute video for him because he has been very important for me, and so i did on my channel. When i heard he passed away, suddently all the memories from my childhood came to mind. Thank you so much sensei, you changed my life❤
Toriyama sensei was incredibly inspirational and influential. I've loved Dragon Ball for a while, but, haven't caught up yet. The beautiful thing I've learned from Dragon Ball is to be determined and never give up, even when times are tough. Rest in peace, Toriyama sensei
As an american i want to say toriyama sensei was a global icon he may of been from japan but anywhere on planet earth would be honored and humbled to welcome him rest in peace sensei you have changed the world for the better
The female Karate World Champion in Kata, also known as the best karateka of all times, Sandra Sanchez has said that she actually started karate because she used to watch Dragon Ball and pretend fighting with her brother.
Akira Toriyama, Thank you for all the inspiration to Train , Martial Arts & Draw & made me a fan of anime & all of the Wonderful memories you blessed us with, you have been a major influence on my life growing up. May your Legacy forever Live on. Prayers to you & your family. You're gonna be missed by so many. Rest in Peace. 🕊️🐲 Really enjoyed enjoyed this video thank you for sharing 🙏🏻🥲 One of My favorite moments was on planet Namek when Goku turns Super Saiyan for the first time vs Frieza. I watch the Saiyan saga up to them so many times.
I was lucky enough to learn what anime is in 90s by watching OG Dragonball. It taught me to never give up and always train hard. As a kid, I was raised somewhat poor but watching dragonball made me forget reality. No matter what DB will always live forever and can’t wait to watch it again with my future grand kids
i'm an american living in new york, and i don't think that i have a singular favorite moment in dragonball or dr. slump or dragon quest - instead, what's most impactful for me is how many different people from so many different places, regardless of nationality, race, background, regardless of everything, were all united together in love for toriyama's work. the way i see it, this is the most important piece of his legacy, where we can all be together, remembering how much joy and excitement he gave to us all. thank you, toriyama-san
But ngl the tamashii nations store in Times Square was massively packed the day of the announcement 😭 shit made me so happy how everyone was there for dragon ball from all places toriyama sensei was magical man
I’m Mexican America and I watched the dragon ball series both in Spanish and English I’m 32 and been a fan since I was 5. I cried when I heard the news. Thank you Toriyama Sensei! You will live on forever like the immortal turtle hermit Muten Roshi. 😢
Tori taught me that winning isn’t everything and sometimes you have to lose to win Vegeta has never “lost” to Goku but could never accept it because Goku always maintains the mental, emotional, or latent edge somewhere as a warrior/ man I can rewatch DB at every stage of life and always get something out of it RIP Toiriyama!
This is a real tribute video. A lot of people are posting tributes but running ads on their videos which is so heartless. Thank you for being a good person.
Man, I don’t think I’ve ever felt this sad for loss of someone I’ve never met… truly a legend has been lost. Hands down one of the most influential individuals of all time
You will do better, maybe one you will be as great as Akira Toriyama. My favorite Part of Dragon Ball is the Frieza Saga, as soon as I heard the news I began looking over his manga. I truly treasure the impact he had on me and my country, may his soul rest in peace.
it's crazy we realize the impact of the person after they're gone, thank you Akira Sensei, thank you Japan, love from Poland, ps my favorite moment is when Goku realizes that Trunk is Vegeta and Bulma's son:)
Akira sensei was one of Japan's many gifts to the world. He'll be dearly missed by all of us... but his legacy lives on. Every time one of us smile because of dragon quest, dragon ball, chrono trigger or any shounen manga since the 90's really... it's in no small part thanks to him. And of course, he'll still live on in all of our memories. Man, I loved that guy. I know heaven does too.
I’ve been a fan of Toriyama since I first watched DBZ Kai as a kid. 20 years later, I still hold high regards for him and his incredible career. He’s touched the hearts of millions with his fun stories and memorable moments across manga, anime, and video games. Toriyama will live on through his legacy and within our hearts 😢❤
He brought so much joy in my childhood, I made many friends from sharing the same hobby thanks to him. His death feels like I just lost a part of my soul.😭😭😭
Akira toriyama is literally the best thing to ever happen to this world… He’s the king of ANIME! No other anime comes close to dragon ball. Dragon ball is so unique, filled with brilliant ideas, like super saiyans, ki blasts, fusions etc. This man was an absolute GENIUS! 🔥 I have never seen such an anime as unique as dragon ball, and during this whole 100 million years of earth exiting, we were lucky enough to have witnessed something so unique such as dragon ball. Think about that… Something that happens only once in a lifetime. Akira was too good for this world that he had to leave at such a young age. Dragon ball still continues to be my favorite anime/show ever. No other anime comes close to it. You have inspired literally thousands of anime shows, if it weren’t for your brilliant dragon ball creation, naruto or one piece wouldn’t even exist. So thank you akira sensei. You are the true GOAT.
It's amazing that someone we've personally never met left such an amazing impact on our lives. That is just how incredible Akira Toriyama is. He passed away two days before my birthday, so when I found out it hit me really hard. No matter how old I get, Dragonball will always be with me.
It is so sad I can't believe we lost a childhood hero who had a huge impact I grew up with dragon ball when ever I'm sad I would watch alongside one piece and naruto life is short it really is and we can't really enjoy without him
I'm so sad upon hearing the news. This brought me back a lot of beautiful memories of my childhood. Thank you so much for the excitement, fun and making every Filipino childhood afternoon memorable. 😢
Toriyama Sensei was our hero, a friend, I don't know how to explain it but it was just everything in good faith, good positivity, and to chase dreams, make changes, and grow stronger beyond imaginations.
We in America are mourning with you Japan over the loss of an amazing human being who’s gift to the is world transcended boarder , race or religion. Toriyama sensei will be missed thank you Toriyama sensei thank you
Dragon Balls can't bring back someone who died of natural causes. At least that was what it said in the English Dub. As much as we wish we could bring back a Manga Legend, we have to take solace in the fact that he had possibly left many notes for his assistants to continue his work.
Thanks for sharing this with us that speak English, we are so saddened by this, he made the anime that changed anime for ever in the west, an anime that so many have shown their brothers and cousins.
I'm glad you made this as a foreigner I wanted to know what Japan felt obviously gaijins made a ton of nice videos shout out to them but its good to hear it from the source.
We have a HUGE fan following of Dragon Ball and Toriyama sir here in India as well... Its extremely sad and a BIG loss because i think nobody understood dragon ball and its characters and their power more than Toriyama sir himself... He must be in the realm of the Supreme Kais!!
Akira Toriyama is not gone, he is watching earth with Goku, if anyone know the song we were angels🥰Toyotaro have big shoes to fill in if he is or want to taking up the mantle of Toriyama-sensei🥰
Dragon Ball was the very first anime that Indian children of 2000s era watched on cartoon network. I don't believe it. I absolutely refuse to believe it. Toriyama Sensei all the best for your training in the other world
Akira Toriyama will always be one of the greatest Manga/Anime creators of all time and I have had a love and passion for Japan and Japanese culture ever since I was a little kid in the 90's and been a fan of everything that became popular here in America and around the world globally. Akira Toriyama's creations such as Dragon Ball will always stay with us and always stay with me as much as I'm here living. Hopefully my mother and I will have the opportunity to visit and explore Japan for once in a lifetime. May you rest in peace, Akira Toriyama. 🙏 ✝ 🇯🇵 🐉
Toriyama-Sensei literally changed the trajectory of my life & gave me a fire inside that motivated me to become a better version of myself. The Warrior-Hero archetype characters he created spurred and motivated me to search for power and strength & to fulfil my potential as a young adolescent & into my early 20s. I reached levels of achievement in the mystical arts and the martial arts because of Toriyama-Sensei’s works on the DragonBall & DragonBall Z franchises. It was me who put in the work but it was Toriyama-Sensei who inspired me and I will always be grateful for what he has given us!🙏🏻
I'm french and grew up watching dragon ball since 1988 to this day with my brother i'm 39 and i'm devastated, dragonball changed our lives. I learned to draw with dragonball, Toriyama san's always been my sensei😢 God take his soul and protect his family. Thank you for everything Mr. Toriyama🙏
I feel ya pain man im huge of manga and anime im still bum about his death i was born 2000s and Dragan ball was and still one of my favorites anime he is inspiration to all
Dude. You were so genuine, and down to earth, that I subbed before you said that I didn't have to. :) My favorite moment in all of Dragon Ball. Was when Majin Vegeta fought Goku. This fight was what got me into Dragon Ball as a whole. It was so well animated.
When I saw this it broke me bc Ik how many people were saved or how many people lives had been changed by this man. I’m glad that media is forever because toriyama will live on and continue to influence and help people until the end of time. I just wanna thank him for that once more.
There is no amount of thanks that will ever be enough, one of the greatest artists the world will ever see. I'm very grateful but also sad, R.I.P. Akira Toriyama you will be missed.
Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2. I met one of my closest friends on that game. I had a friend group online. And over the course of a month. The friend group of 3 became 4. And that friend. Quickly became one of my brothers. It all started on an online match on Raging Blast 2. Thank you, Toriyama.
The whole world is in mourning. Toriyama has created a living legacy of artist, athletes and people in general who were inspired by him. Toriyama changed the world for the better and will never be forgotten.
Akira Toriyama mentored Toyotaro to eventually take over for Dragon Ball. We don't know what else is going on with Dragon Ball privately. We know that Akio Iyoku managed many things for Toriyama, and his company, Capsule Corporation Tokyo, will be running DAIMA and other content related to Dragon Ball. Hopefully, Sasuke Toriyama prevents anyone from randomly messing with it. 😖🙏🤞🙇♂
For me it was "Chrono Trigger" that introduced me to his art! Dragon Ball and whatnot, was just a follow-along to that. RIP!! Sayonara, Toriyama-Sensei!! 🤧💌😭😭😇
In Poland manga and anime boom was started at the second half of 90's. First was Sailor Moon series, and shortly after that, Dragon Ball was shown to us - french version (license and translation costs). That started great snowball, which turns on till today. And now going to clou of my post: Since i was akid i always draw and draw. Till today i'm really good at it. And when Drgon Ball showed up, i was always asked by my friends to draw some Goku and the others for them. And i made it countless times. And that's why i will be always paying my respect for many mangakas, but special to mr. Toriyama: Thank You for all your work.
It was because of Akira Toriyama, when Dragon Ball Z aired in the USA 🇺🇸 for the first time in 1997 that helped Japanese anime gain recognition in the West. Toriyama helped introduce a new generation in a new part of the world to Japanese anime and we wanted more of it. I finally watch Dragon Ball Kai when it aired in the USA 🇺🇸 and I immediately fell in love with the show and everything Toriyama made. Thank you Akira Toriyama. Thank you Japan. 🇯🇵
My favorite thing about dragon ball is that I was the perfect age for it when it was new in America. I’ve made friends because of dragon ball, I study martial arts because of dragon ball, and I learned how to draw because of dragon ball. I may not be Japanese but Akira Toriyama is such a huge inspiration to my life. I feel like there is something I should do to honor him, but I don’t know what. Rest in peace sensei 😔
Here in Indonesia we are mourning as well.. Dragon Ball is such an integral part of our childhood (for those of us who were born from the 90s to early 2000s.. Rest in peace Toriyama sensei.. 🕊️🐉
Growing poor in a house far from civilization without internet, it was experience not like any other. It was show unlike any other... It was most amazing experience of my life, he was like a second father to me, and to many people. How many daydreams I had making up my own stories inspired by this man. No other famous people death had any impact on my but this.
Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama. You are loved by so many around the world. You are a the most legendary manga artist to exist and you will never be forgotten. May we meet again in Other World 🕊 🐉 ❤
My mom doesn't really send me articles on this stuff. She didn't with Yu-Gi-Oh she didn't with Berserk. However, with Toriyama and Dragon Ball and Z was something we both watched together every night on Toonami. This is what Goku must feel like wearing these weighted clothes.
I don't have a favorite moment guy, but ONE OF my favorite moments was when Frieza hit Future Trunks with his Supernova ball and it failed! The same attack that ended the entire Saiyan race Trunks held it in one hand, like it was a got-damned basketball! Thus really making you understand the difference between a Saiyan and a SUPER Saiyan!! #BlueFlameEmoji
#thankyouakiratoriyama he made my childhood epic. teen gohan+goku vs perfect cell and genkidama goku vs super boo was the most iconic moments of DBZ. T__T
In norway we never saw or got eps of db. But we knew of it. But it was very mysterious. All we had was ovas and clips and mods from wc3. We also found a few eps or few mins of a few eps on dailywire and some torrent/dl sites. Manga came to norway in like maybe 2000-2006 and could finally get hands on something. But dbz was still far away and we knew something happened there. The blonde hair and transforms. We knew it was a thing but not what and thats what intrigued us at first. Then tpb came. Full movies full show. It spread like wildfire and could finally see all eps. We were blown away finally got answers and loved it. And in my late 20s i saw it again 4th time with my gf who didnt have any interest in anime, but now she want to rewatch it all and loves the characters. Her fav was piccolo and now piccolo and vegeta and loved his growth. That was the power of akira. Thanks toriyama. You made my childhood amazing. Rest well
I wanted to know how everyday japanese people take the news, i mean everyone in the world is already extremly sad but for japanese it must hurt to another level
Yeah, I'm sure they just feel the same way bro.
yeah, i wonder that too.
Yeah DBZ is big but people forget to mention his impact in the gaming world with Dragon Quest. Without Toriyama DQ would not even be close to what it is today an don't forget how hugely popular the DQ series is in JP.

Vegeta has never “lost” to Goku but could never accept it because Goku always maintains the mental, emotional, or latent edge somewhere as a warrior/ man

For me it was "Chrono Trigger" that introduced me to his art! Dragon Ball and whatnot, was just a follow-along to that. RIP!! Sayonara, Toriyama-Sensei!! 🤧💌😭😭😇
My favorite part about Dragon ball was definitely the transformations. Rest in Peace and Power Toriyama-Sensei.
In Poland manga and anime boom was started at the second half of 90's. First was Sailor Moon series, and shortly after that, Dragon Ball was shown to us - french version (license and translation costs). That started great snowball, which turns on till today. And now going to clou of my post: Since i was akid i always draw and draw. Till today i'm really good at it. And when Drgon Ball showed up, i was always asked by my friends to draw some Goku and the others for them. And i made it countless times. And that's why i will be always paying my respect for many mangakas, but special to mr. Toriyama: Thank You for all your work.
It was because of Akira Toriyama, when Dragon Ball Z aired in the USA 🇺🇸 for the first time in 1997 that helped Japanese anime gain recognition in the West. Toriyama helped introduce a new generation in a new part of the world to Japanese anime and we wanted more of it. I finally watch Dragon Ball Kai when it aired in the USA 🇺🇸 and I immediately fell in love with the show and everything Toriyama made.
Thank you Akira Toriyama. Thank you Japan. 🇯🇵
The whole world is mourning this man. Rip. I love everything dragonball
R.i.p and Condolences Legend🙏🕯️
Thank-you, Toriyama San...
My favorite thing about dragon ball is that I was the perfect age for it when it was new in America. I’ve made friends because of dragon ball, I study martial arts because of dragon ball, and I learned how to draw because of dragon ball. I may not be Japanese but Akira Toriyama is such a huge inspiration to my life. I feel like there is something I should do to honor him, but I don’t know what. Rest in peace sensei 😔
I’m still heartbroken…
Here in Indonesia we are mourning as well.. Dragon Ball is such an integral part of our childhood (for those of us who were born from the 90s to early 2000s.. Rest in peace Toriyama sensei.. 🕊️🐉
It has been a week and I still feel so sad about it. 😢
It made me cry what Edo said..
Growing poor in a house far from civilization without internet, it was experience not like any other. It was show unlike any other... It was most amazing experience of my life, he was like a second father to me, and to many people. How many daydreams I had making up my own stories inspired by this man. No other famous people death had any impact on my but this.
The world as a whole is mourning the passing of this great legend rest in peace Akira Toriyama 😢😢
RIP Sensey toriyama thanks all dragon ball and take my childhood is happy your legency is forever ❤
Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama. You are loved by so many around the world. You are a the most legendary manga artist to exist and you will never be forgotten. May we meet again in Other World 🕊 🐉 ❤
It shocked me at first too... now I feel so sad. I know it's even more difficult in Japan. Toriyama is gone far too early.
My mom doesn't really send me articles on this stuff. She didn't with Yu-Gi-Oh she didn't with Berserk. However, with Toriyama and Dragon Ball and Z was something we both watched together every night on Toonami.
This is what Goku must feel like wearing these weighted clothes.
Rest in peace hero 😢
In high school i got bullied but when ghan turn super sayian 2 for the first time gave me courage to fight back thank you Akira Toriyama.
thanks for sharing man!
The idea of AT walking down Snake Way is both beautiful and sad.
I hope the best for Akira and his close love ones. He was such a legend to the world and history
I never expected this. 😔
I think Toriyama Sensei himself has no idea how many lives he has actually saved through son Goku and DBZ. RIP Toriyama Sensei.
gohan going ssj 2
I don't have a favorite moment guy, but ONE OF my favorite moments was when Frieza hit Future Trunks with his Supernova ball and it failed! The same attack that ended the entire Saiyan race Trunks held it in one hand, like it was a got-damned basketball! Thus really making you understand the difference between a Saiyan and a SUPER Saiyan!! #BlueFlameEmoji
Yaeah taking this perspective is insane
@ze_kangz932 Insane as in good right!? 👍🏿 😆😂
@@CoolToTheInfinthPower yeah lol
#thankyouakiratoriyama he made my childhood epic. teen gohan+goku vs perfect cell and genkidama goku vs super boo was the most iconic moments of DBZ. T__T
In norway we never saw or got eps of db. But we knew of it. But it was very mysterious. All we had was ovas and clips and mods from wc3. We also found a few eps or few mins of a few eps on dailywire and some torrent/dl sites. Manga came to norway in like maybe 2000-2006 and could finally get hands on something. But dbz was still far away and we knew something happened there. The blonde hair and transforms. We knew it was a thing but not what and thats what intrigued us at first. Then tpb came. Full movies full show. It spread like wildfire and could finally see all eps. We were blown away finally got answers and loved it. And in my late 20s i saw it again 4th time with my gf who didnt have any interest in anime, but now she want to rewatch it all and loves the characters. Her fav was piccolo and now piccolo and vegeta and loved his growth. That was the power of akira. Thanks toriyama. You made my childhood amazing. Rest well
Your loss is felt by all ❤❤
