    Toriyama almost single-handedly introduced the western world to manga/anime.
    There were plenty of "action packed cartoons" in that era, but Dragonball was the only one that made people actually question "what is this, its too good to just be a cartoon".
    Toriyama's creation was not just an amazing manga/anime because of its art style and action. It was a story displaying the importance of loyality, discipline, family, and that a positive outlook on life can trump any tragedy.
    RIP

      Dragonball Z is a Christian Cartoon about Jesus Christ and the 1611 King James Bible:
      Dragonball z Characters never grow older than roughly 33 years old:
      And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli. Luke 3:23
      There are no Female Saiyans:
      For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. Matthew 22:30
      Dragonball z Characters have Golden hair and Gold aura around them:
      And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7
      And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; and the gold of that land is good. Genesis 2:10‭-‬12
      I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. Isaiah 13:12
      Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, And the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. Job 22:24
      The precious sons of Zion, Comparable to fine gold, How are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, The work of the hands of the Potter! Lamentations 4:2
      The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. Psalm 45:13
      Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold. 1 Kings 10:14
      666 = Number of a Man
      Dragonball z Characters are Strong af:
      ‭‭And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. 2 Kings‬ ‭19:35‬
      Goku who is a type of Jesus Christs ressurects from the dead:
      For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day. Mark 9:31
      Dragonball z Characters can Fly:
      ‭‭And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven. Luke‬ ‭24:51‬
      ‭‭And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. Acts‬ ‭1:9‬
      Teleport:
      So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went. John 6:19-21
      ‭‭And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. Luke‬ ‭24:31‬
      Dragonball z Characters Shine Brilliantly:
      And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: Matthew 28:2-3
      And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. Matthew 17:1-2
      ‭‭And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. Luke‬ ‭9:29‬
      And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. Luke‬ ‭24:4‬
      Saiyans were cast out of Space on to earth due to war:
      ‭‭And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation‬ ‭12:7‭-‬9‬

    There was a man who, to distract himself from hunger due to poverty, drew his favorite pictures. In pursuit of some extra cash, he drew manga for manga awards. Several years later, he became the wealthiest man in Japan.
    Despite the challenges of manga creation, he managed to complete "Dragon Ball" without compromising quality. The speed and quality of his work were so unbelievable that he became a legendary figure, revered as a god by all manga artists.
    Akira Toriyama changed the world from a small room in rural Japan, with just paper and pen. Moreover, he didn't set out to change the world; he simply did what he loved.
    Even if credited with changing the world, he would likely modestly say, "I could only draw," and shyly smile. He might even think of his death as merely the passing of one rural person.
    Still, we are saddened by your passing.
    R.I.P, Toriyama. May you continue doing what you love, even in heaven.

      Dragonball Z is a Christian Cartoon about Jesus Christ and the 1611 King James Bible:
      Dragonball z Characters never grow older than roughly 33 years old:
      And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli. Luke 3:23
      There are no Female Saiyans:
      For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. Matthew 22:30
      Dragonball z Characters have Golden hair and Gold aura around them:
      And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7
      And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; and the gold of that land is good. Genesis 2:10‭-‬12
      I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. Isaiah 13:12
      Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, And the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. Job 22:24
      The precious sons of Zion, Comparable to fine gold, How are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, The work of the hands of the Potter! Lamentations 4:2
      The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. Psalm 45:13
      Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold. 1 Kings 10:14
      666 = Number of a Man
      Dragonball z Characters are Strong af:
      ‭‭And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. 2 Kings‬ ‭19:35‬
      Goku who is a type of Jesus Christs ressurects from the dead:
      For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day. Mark 9:31
      Dragonball z Characters can Fly:
      ‭‭And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven. Luke‬ ‭24:51‬
      ‭‭And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. Acts‬ ‭1:9‬
      Teleport:
      So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went. John 6:19-21
      ‭‭And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. Luke‬ ‭24:31‬
      Dragonball z Characters Shine Brilliantly:
      And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: Matthew 28:2-3
      And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. Matthew 17:1-2
      ‭‭And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. Luke‬ ‭9:29‬
      And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. Luke‬ ‭24:4‬
      Saiyans were cast out of Space on to earth due to war:
      ‭‭And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation‬ ‭12:7‭-‬9‬
      Mr Satan.
      Etc etc etc
      Spirit Bomb
      (Reference to the Holy Spirit!)
      Goku raising his hands to heaven:
      And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up to heaven. 1 Kings 8:54

Dragon Ball was a violent show but they always fought the bad guys, and Goku was the ideal of the super kind, happy-go-lucky but extremely powerful character. And The show redeemed two big villains (Piccolo and Vegeta) making one a father figure to Goku's son and the other like a Brother. It really reinforced the idea of not being that bad guy....Just be like Goku and you'll be good 👍🏻

      Dragonball Z is a Christian Cartoon about Jesus Christ and the 1611 King James Bible:
      Dragonball z Characters never grow older than roughly 33 years old:
      And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli. Luke 3:23
      There are no Female Saiyans:
      For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. Matthew 22:30
      Dragonball z Characters have Golden hair and Gold aura around them:
      And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7
      And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; and the gold of that land is good. Genesis 2:10‭-‬12
      I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. Isaiah 13:12
      Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, And the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. Job 22:24
      The precious sons of Zion, Comparable to fine gold, How are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, The work of the hands of the Potter! Lamentations 4:2
      The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. Psalm 45:13
      Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold. 1 Kings 10:14
      666 = Number of a Man
      Dragonball z Characters are Strong af:
      ‭‭And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. 2 Kings‬ ‭19:35‬
      Goku who is a type of Jesus Christs ressurects from the dead:
      For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day. Mark 9:31
      Dragonball z Characters can Fly:
      ‭‭And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven. Luke‬ ‭24:51‬
      ‭‭And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. Acts‬ ‭1:9‬
      Teleport:
      So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went. John 6:19-21
      ‭‭And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. Luke‬ ‭24:31‬
      Dragonball z Characters Shine Brilliantly:
      And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: Matthew 28:2-3
      And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. Matthew 17:1-2
      ‭‭And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. Luke‬ ‭9:29‬
      And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. Luke‬ ‭24:4‬
      Saiyans were cast out of Space on to earth due to war:
      ‭‭And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation‬ ‭12:7‭-‬9‬
      Mr Satan.
      Etc etc etc
      Spirit Bomb
      (Reference to the Holy Spirit!)
      Goku raising his hands to heaven:
      And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread up to heaven. 1 Kings 8:54

It incorporates so many Chinese elements, including the main character Goku, so it naturally becomes very popular in china but I never expected it spreads and influences west as well. Toriyama San will continue to be loved by millions of people around the world even he goes to the heaven! RIP❤

      Dragon Ball Z was shown in China? Really?! Did you watched it dubbed in Chinese or in Chinese subtitles?

    He invoked masculinity in boys at an age where masculinity was supposedly non existent and motivated boys to become strong men. Dragon ball z is one of the reasons why I and many men got into weight training in pursuit of strength
    He raised a generation of men

      @AuranCrash this topic has nothing to do with Isreal or Ukraine. Daniel is simply trolling. Just because 'some' people do 1 thing does not justify the actions of another. Generalising people is not ok either. People are allowed different opinions even if we disagree with them.

    i remember when i was a kid watching Dragon Ball, and most adults were worried about it being violent and raising kids with bad examples.
    fast forward to today, the kids from back then are now adults who cry tears of sadness, joy and gratitude, united all over the world, no matter the language and the culture.
    Akira Toriyama has been a father, an uncle to all of us, shaping our imagination, creating a unique language, building a bond between us all.
    And so today instead of talking about violence, you finally hear people talking about how Dragon Ball taught them the values of friendship, hard work, determination, sacrifice, honesty, forgiveness.
    Toriyama sensei gave us the best example possible, all in all.
    He deserves to be up there among the greatest artists of the century, and he's been a narrator so powerful he influenced entire generations of other narrators powerful enough to influence the entire world to this day.
    So long sensei, thank you for everything.

Dragon ball was the reason why I loved anime and manga and I’ll forever be grateful to Toriyama for sharing his creation with us. RIP.

    Dragon Ball has been with me ever since I was 7. I'll never forget how my eyes were glimmering the first time I saw Goku, Gohan, Goten, Vegeta, and Trunks on the cover of a game that would go on to be one of my best games ever, if not the best. Dragon Ball helped me not to fall into depression and gave me the motivation and inspiration to work out. Dragon Ball also showed me not to give up on my dreams and to enjoy the grind. It has also done the same for millions around the world. What a legend we lost. Until we meet again, Master Akira Toriyama. Rest in eternal peace. ❤
