Paying tribute to the man who defined the Shonen anime genre. Who better than the three who started it all for Dragon Ball to see him off? The three of them saying goodbye to a good man. a man who was forgetful and often made changes. A man who didn't mind others contributing to his works, and Canonizing them as well to fit his vision.  Dragon Ball was his vision, his baby as was Doctor Slump, Crono Trigger, Blue Dragon and the Dragon Quest games. Jeezum! This guy made a lot of games with the number seven and dragons! and funny, considering this is the Year of the Dragon, it might have been very fitting the anniversary amd his death come up this year. Making this piece was hard. Considering this was my childhood for crying out loud, I had to listen to music like Bardock Falls just really come to terms with what happened. 

sixty-eight is awfully young for Zeno-Sama/God to take someone back to Heaven.  But it was his time. The fans can mourn while ensuring to respect the man's wishes. AS of right now, here is mine. The parents who sent Goku off and started the magical  adventure for a wonderful hero. We were certainly in for a magical surprise. 

Rest. In. Paradise. 

Akira Toriyama 

Apr. 5. 1955 - Mar. 5. 2024
