| DragonBall was big for me in the nineties. Not ony for me but it was a phenomenon nationwide where i lived, people would literally stop working or miss classes to watch the new episode. GT was a big disappointment and it all fade away, I don't think I ever watched a full season of it and it was a relief as it made sense knowing at some point that Toriyama was not the creative force behind it. As much as I liked dbz at the time these days whenever I feel nostalgic I go and watch the original DragonBall series. I love the innocent humor of those early arcs. I never followed the new series but I hear they are good. I hope someone close enough of him can finish the series for the fans like with berserk. I never got why Dr. Slump is so underrated though. As a westerner his name was one of the first mangakas I ever knew of, along with Katsuhiro Otomo, Masamune Shirow and Rumiko Takahashi. He was definitely through his work an influence for a lot that followed. Without him we wouldn't have one piece, Naruto or jujutsu kaisen to name a few. Rest in peace sensei. |
| @RobdeFR Just gonna hop in here and say that Dragon Ball changed my entire life and shaped the way I see things for the better and to me Toriyama sensei will always be the greatest mangaka because of that. Rest in peace sensei <3 |
