| Well, I of course didn't plan it this way, but as it turns out the very first Dr. Slump episode I watched after learning of Akira Toriyama's passing earlier this month is a q and a special hosted by the late, great author himself. He didn't voice himself of course, but still it's rather eerie. The episode even ends on a dark joke as he's eaten by the Gatchans, leaving us to wonder who would replace him. Of course no one did, or could, but it was certainly in keeping with Toriyama's charming, self-deprecating humor. This episode had many humorous fourth wall breaking gags such as addressing the changing Arale design and Norimaki house layout. Plus a brief return for King Nikochan! Just...to poop out of his head. Oh Toriyama-sensei, as you saved Penguin Village from the floating question marks of doom so too did you save us all from boredom time and time again with your wonderful creations. You will be missed, rest in peace. Next time: Midori's gaining weight....wait, gaining weight? Could....could it be??? |
