    • @TayoEXE
      @TayoEXE 4 месяца назад +5

      @@offthedeepend3996 It's amazing how universal his worlds felt. The original story is based on Journey to the West, a Chinese story, features military that resembles various historical militaries, cities that feel culture androgynous, characters from various planets, animals from various time periods, creative depictions of the afterlife, futuristic city life, machines, robots, mad scientists, Native American inspired tribes, India inspired villages (Nam is unironically one of my favorite DB characters with his cool fighting style and just hilarious reactions to others along with his noble goals for fighting in the tournament). He made all kinds of food look so delicious to eat (watching Goku makes anyone hungry). He made martial arts of various styles seem so enticing as a method of honing one's body and mind (inspiring many martial artists, weight lifters, or any other fitness disciplines). His characters were literally about various different races (I mean, not just human even, the king of the planet is a dog lol). Despite what some peope think, I believe Toriyama just wanted to make a really intersting world that anyone could relate to with its characters. It's often a story about a journey, so many places are visited, bringing out the imagination of kids and adults of any culture. The awesome fighting choreography, the transformations, the epic ki blast battles, the intriguing stories involving the Androids, time travel, a space emperor, turning into a giant monkey. Heartwarming moments like Goku seeing his grandpa again for the first time since his death (knowing how Goku only ever traveled to find the 4 star ball because his grandpa meant so much to him). Seeing our protagonist literally grow, physically and mentally, through the years, having his own family, sons, and even grandchild.
      The way he actually drew the characters and his masterful paneling so everything is easy to read and understand (I saw Mark's video only, but I appreciated it much more once I understood why it was so straightforward to read). The style is iconic, the jokes are funny, and the characters unique. It really is no wonder so many cultures love the series.

    For me, I didn't start watching Dragon Ball until DBZ when I was around 13 or maybe a little older. Before then though, I actually played the Dragon Ball video games first. So I knew all about the story of DBZ before watching Kai on Nicktoons. When I grew up and wasn't really playing the Tenkaichi series, I was playing Raging Blast or I was playing Blue Dragon a game he did the artwork for. After finally watching the anime for the first time, I knew I had found something that I really liked. I went back and watched Dragon Ball, watched DBZ, and Kai, and started watching Super in Japanese because I didn't want to wait for it to come to English. Dragon Ball had such a profound impact on my life that it inspired me to make my own videos talking about it, because I just wanted to talk about it with someone. He was an inspiration to not only thousands of kids and adults around the world, but he was an icon in the manga world. Mangaka singing his praises and talking about how they were inspired by his work. Seeing Kishimoto and Oda talk about their sadness for his passing destroyed me. I couldn't believe the news when it hit me. I'll forever miss him, and forever treasure the impact he had on my life. Yesterday was my birthday, and hearing about it the day before made celebrating it rough. Thank you, Toriyama, for all that you've done.

    Toriyama was such an integral part of so many lives. One cannot truly do justice to the sheer impact of his life's work. While I believe he has been taken from us FAR too soon, I do hope that he finally has the chance to rest peacefully after all the time and effort he put into teaching the world to dream a little more. RIP to the undisputed legend of the industry, and my best wishes to his family. Other World just gained another hero to represent Earth.

    When you deliver the line for Goku in Cooler Movie, "You were taken before your time" to a bird that named Toriyama is really sums up of how we feel of Toriyama death,and 68 feels like still young. How alot of project he anticipate like Daima,Sand Land and some other project that he agree to work on with full of joy and heart to his fan,didn't let him see the results with such an unexpected ill that he felt.
    Farewell Toriyama,your work change and inspire alot of People to do different and change and keep strong as Goku and his Z Fighter. Your work will and always be Ageless and Timeless. Don't care if you too old or the manga is so yesterday,so the next generation and further can experience the action pack of DBZ and bring inspiration.

    @rattle_me_bones 4 месяца назад +3

    Dragon Ball's writing and style of worldbuilding and character design has deeply embedded myself into my psyche. Even things that aren't explicitly Dragon Ball related I've found has had influence from that critical work.
    I remember being a kid, recently moved into my current house, with nothing but a Dish network box TV atop a tiny entertainment system in my living room during the earliest hours of the morning to watch Nick Toons play Dragon Ball Z's English dub. I hardly missed an episode. Sometimes I'd wake up on the couch in front of the TV and it would be playing.
    In spite of all of the growing pains Dragon Ball has faced over the years, it is still a masterwork, and I will miss Toriyama. Dragon Ball will simply not be the same without his touch.
    May he rest in peace.

    Dragon Ball taught me to keep going, no matter what. Keep fighting no matter how bad things may get. As my character in Xenoverse 2 stand at the podium, doing the Spirit Bomb enote, I can't help but cry. But while I feel an immense sense of loss, I feel thankful. Thankful for all the lessons, and the joy that Toriyama gave us. Thankful for the tears, laughs, and smiles his stories gave us. Thankful for everything.
    I'll miss him, so so much. Goodbye, Akira Toriyama. ❤

    This one hit hard, I was working and on a call when I got notified. Legit had to compose myself.
    Dragon ball z to me was one of the few happy points in rough period of my childhood. It'll always be my favourite show from my childhood, my favourite anime, ever.
    My 2 best friends of over 20 years now first bonded playing the Tenkaichi Budokai games together.
    These are bonds in my life that wouldn't have started without Akira Toriyama's creation.
    The cartoons before school were the happiest times for me, as it was conversation starters on the playground. Australian kids who grew up in the late 90s early 00s would remember Cheez TV.
    Peak Cheez TV line up was Digimon, Pokemon & Dragonball Z. I'll never forget everyone losing their minds (myself included) when Goku turned super saiyan for the first time.
    No show other than maybe the simpsons has impacted me on a level that Dragon Ball has.
    RIP Akira Toriyama

    I always saw Dragon Ball as a show full of cool action as a kid. And while I still do see it as that as an adult, I grew to appreciate and love the comedy and adventure Toriyama had given us in DB and Z along with his other work like most of Minus and a bit of Dr. Slump. Despite us losing a legend, I'm glad his legacy lives on strong and we can talk about the things he did while even teaching us a thing or two.

    I discovered Dragonball Z when my parents sent me to Mexico back in 96 (I was 7) but because I lived in the country side I didn't have a proper antenna to see it Monday through Friday at 8pm on channel 5. I made a friend who invited me to his house and he said hey you wanna "stay to watch Dragonball Z" and M-F I went to his house to watch Dragonball Z till my Mom got satélite, then we watched at my place. We moved to California in 2000 and now had more access to DBZ and the rest was history. I introduced DB to my son and daughter (they're 13 and 17 now) we love DBZ ever since. Toriyama changed my life, helmet me through the divorce of my parents and challenges of Parenthood and I'm forever grateful I was able to share this great joy with my children. Thank you Akira Toriyama for the joy and lessons you brought into my life, I hope you are enjoying the afterlife with the greatest heroes of the world.

    I wasn’t the biggest Dragon Ball but even i cannot deny the impact it had on not just my life but on anime entirely if it weren’t for Akira Toriyama’s story writing we wouldn’t have some if the most brilliant anime to date or at least the wouldn’t be the same as we love them now The Big Three some of the most popular manga of all time toke heavy inspiration from Dragon Ball the creator’s of those three shows alone were apprentice’s under the Legend himself even it’s a shame we lost him but in a way he is not gone cuz his work and memory lives on in millions and may it stay that way for many more years to come
