We lost a powerful figure in the Anime industry this week. Akira Toriyama has been an influence to millions and revolutionized Anime and the whole worlds view.
Breaking down so many walls to make animation, and Anime a dream for both Adults and Kids alike. I grew up watching Dragon Ball Z. I was always captivated by his story telling and representation of heroes. Iconic Son Goku has always been at the top of a hero or person who is always striving to be greater than their previous self.
Bleach, Naruto, One piece all took inspiration from Toriyama and his amazing spirit and love for anime.
It saddens us that you were taken from us so soon. And we all wish the dragon balls were real, because the whole community would wish nothing more than your return. Hopefully shinron would grant that to us.
Below are some of the tremendous support and moved messages from cast and colleagues of Toriyama.
We support all anime genres and their ambitious to be the greatest. Rest well, great hero, may your legend live on and your spirit never fade!
