mikeszekely Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Dang. I mean, Dragon Ball, obviously, but how do you make another Dragon Quest game without his character designs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff J Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 RIP. Kind of surprised to hear he was only 68; in my head, he was a lot older. Guess it speaks to how influential he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I usually don’t post in these kind of threads but that is just sad. Even before I ever heard of Dragonball I played Chrono Trigger and gushed over the art in the manual. To me Chrono Trigger is the best video game of all time and the character design by Akira Toriyama had a lot do do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 My first anime exposure of Toriyama-san was Dr. Slump Arale back in the 80's. R.I.P. Akira Toriyama-san. Domo Arigatou. 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Toriyama died a legend. The entire world knows Dragon Ball Z, inspring fight scenes even in Hollywood. His work on Dragon Quest helped create the JRPG genre and his mechanical designs are timeless. His works will continue to inspire. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big s Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I remember in early/mid 90’s watching og Dragon Ball and eventually the American edits of Dragon Ball Z. It was a weekend thing that my brother and I had to wake up extra early for on a non school day. When Saturday morning cartoons started to kinda suck all of a sudden Toriyama’s creations were there to fill a gap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negotiator Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I've always loved Dragonball and have been binge rewatching everything this past month. Even fell down the shf money pIt of figures. I think he was involved with the upcoming Dragonball daima anime. This really sucks. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tking22 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I'm gutted, RIP to an absolute legend, DBZ will always be my favorite shonen ever, it's probably the best shonen ever made. His legacy and influence will be remembered for years to come, his work will never be forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Test_Pilot_2 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 This sucks, condolences to the family. All I can hope is that those he inspired carry on his awesome work. We've lost yet another legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I thought it was sweet that Toriyama had a message to his children in one of the endings of Chrono Trigger: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikuro Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 It's so very sad, an absolute legend such as him is now seeing king yama and ready to cross snakeway for the next big adventure. Kind of stinks cause he'd been getting back into his old works adding to those stories over the last couple of years and now all these stories and ideas are going to be lost forever and quite probably never be finished.
