I will be honest that I didn’t enjoy Dragon Ball. But, Akira Toriyama was an inspiration to one of my favourite mangaka: Hideaki Sorachi. So, I still think Toriyama is still a legend and one of the best mangakas of all time.

Akira Toriyama, was a mangaka responsible for creating Dragonball (and other franchises). Mangaka is a manga artist in Japanese. Manga being Japanese comics

My wife told me about Akira and it was like getting a kick in the stomach... I love DB
