His mechanical designs were underrated
>>22509942RIP
>>22509942I liked his robots.
>>22509942the bulbous robots the red ribbon army adn Pilaf used in the first series were pretty cooldid he also came up with the combination gimmick of Androind 13 in its movie?
>>22509942Fhopefully the sandland vidya doesn't end up being shit, he deserves to be known as more than a shounen mangaka
Didn't he start out as a mechanical draftsman? I think I read somewhere he originally worked drawing car parts for a catalogue.
I’ll confess. Usually I’m the one that says that the franchise isn’t /m/……I’ll allow this one since this news absolutely stunned me since it was still a part of my childhood and how influential he was. I get that it was a complete accident in regards to his fall but still its incredibly shocking to hear his passing at all since he had a lot left in him but shit like this does happen unfortunately especially when you get older and head trauma can be much more life threatening. F to one of the Manga icons, maybe you can meet tezuka and ishinomori up there
>>22509987Oh really? Okay PHEW I thought I was going to get banned but nope, you heard the guy mods! He allowed this thread!
Señor Robot....
>>22509942I swear to christ. I hope hell make an anime with more of his mecha stuff, they're the best parts of his art.
>>22509942I've only bough 1 article of anime in my life and is that bike.

>>22510113>looking at porn instead of working on plamo backlogHe wad just like me
>>22510125>talking shit about Toriyama right after he diesbro do you wanna get sent to Funkytown by the cartel?
>>22510125
>>22509987No fucking way, I didn't believe it and thought it was a joke at first, but yeah it seems Toriyama really is gone. I didn't expect it to happen this year, I thought he had a few more in him. And it was such a random accident like you said, what a shame. I always liked his mecha and ship design, not just from DBZ but for stuff like Chrono Trigger too. And both ways he was a huge part of my childhood. Big F.
>>22510136His work for DQ1 to 4 were much better.
>>22509987Yeah, this one is, this is a big one.
>>22510136>>22509987>Kentaro Miura, Kazuki Takahashi, Leiji Matsumoto and recently Akira Toriyama all passed away in these few years.The 2020 decade isn't even halfway done.
>>22510152dont forget Buichi Terasawa
>>22509942The new Sand Land game and anime are looking to be showcases for his mechanical design prowess. Very excited.
I didn't know that blue dragon was his designs too. But I started watching it and you cant mistake the robots lol
>>22509942RIP to one of the GOATs, hopefully he'll be up there with the other great writers of our time and the past.
Does this mean the end of Dragon Quest?
>>22509942It's a real shame he never got to see that Sand Land game come out.Never cared for DB but that interested me.RIP to the man.
>>22510152Imagine how bad the 2030s will be beyond that
RIP to the legendglad before passing on you made Beerus
>>22510152pls no tomino
;_;7
>>22510260Go Nagai will be the next one visited by the Grim Reaper instead.
>>22510262Nagai isn't even that much older, but Toriyama dying before him fucks with my brain
>>22510153They also passed away at 68 years old
>>22509987Dr. Slump is about a robot girl, therefore discussion is /m/ related.
>>22509942>His mechanical designs were underratedindeed
>>22510293I never understood his fivehead design on some of his characters
>>22510218The remaining big name pre-2010s mangaka passing away in the 2030s.
>>22510260it would be hilarious for him to die on women's day
Nozawa outlived Toriyama.
What gets me is that I always picture Akira Toriyama as in his 80's. Didn't know he was just in his late 60's.
>>22510303He'd probably laugh his ass off at the irony if he goes Beyond the Time on that day.
>>22510294He only knows one way to draw women
https://twitter.com/ryohorikawa/status/1765997845566599202Ryo Horikawa (Vegeta) expressing his feelings about Toriyama's passing"It was a bolt out of the blue, and even now I am filled with disbelief. The work has just started a new development. The story was supposed to be more and more thrilling. It is too sudden. It is a shame. Thank you very much for giving birth to this wonderful work. Please take a good rest."
>>22509987>Usually I’m the one that says that the franchise isn’t /m/Oh, so you're that faggot huh?
https://twitter.com/torushome/status/1765953480643182832Furuya's comment on Toriyama's death."I heard that Mr. Akira Toriyama passed away. I am truly grateful to him for his unforgettable characters in such big works like "Dragon Ball", "Dragon Quest - The Legend of Abel" and "Dr. Slump Arale-chan". I was looking forward to seeing your new works, and but I'm very saddened. I humbly pray for your soul to rest in peace."
Rest in Peace, legend.>>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama
>>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama
Gonna be honest, never really liked his character designs, but as a mechanical artist he was absolutely phenomenal.
I see someone went and destroyed another of Araki's horcruxes again.
>>22510415Either that or someone sent Toriyama a copy of the Araki doughnut image.
>>22510294more to love
>>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama. Rest easy
>>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama.>>22510168>Does this mean the end of Dragon Quest?I expect them to hire Toyotaro to make new designs in Toriyama's style.
>>22510113I pray that they’ll be plenty of porno mags in heaven for him.
>>22510496I hope he's drawing Mr Popo and other great characters in Heaven.
>>22509942The max310 from crusher joe… sexo…I wish he would have made a mecha series. Fuck, may he Rest In Peace. 68 years old isn’t even that old.
>>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama.
>>22510371Given that 99% of Dragon Ball and Toriyama-related posts on this site are tired memes that have been shitposted to death, as well as general dickmeasuring faggotry against other battle shounen... We dodged a bullet there.
>>22510533>I wish he would have made a mecha seriesDamn that would have been incredible, imagining the world he would have come up with to support it... :(
>>22510003Kamehameha. Toriyama
Toryama’s Zaku
We should kit-bash to celebrate his life.
>>22509942
>>22510293you could land a space shuttle over that forehead
>>22510152Good riddance in Leiji Matsumoto’s case. Hopefully Miyazaki is next.
>>22510152>So this work has made the hearts of adults tremble as well?>Ohbari:>I don't think I'll ever have another chance to do what I want to do on such a large scale and over such a long period of time, so I really want to make it a reality. I don't want this to sound like a sappy story, but many of my friends have passed away recently. Most recently, Kimutaka (Takahiro Kimura) passed away, and a friend of mine who came to Tokyo with me from Hiroshima also passed away. It may sound far-fetched, but I'm doing this as if I'm carrying the thoughts and feelings of these people with me. This film is the culmination of my career as a filmmaker, and I am not exaggerating, but I am putting my life as a filmmaker on the line. I want to run all the way to the finish line, bursting with courage. To achieve this, I would like to ask for your support. If you enjoy the film, please spread the word on X and in many other places. It will encourage our staff. Everyone, including myself, is checking it out. I hope you will experience this festival.This is the last dance.
99% of artists wish they had an art style as distinct as toriyama's.
His mechanical designs were always such a treat. I wonder if he ever talked about how he come up with his style for them.
Hirdugarn or whatever you spell it was a pretty cool kaiju design too
>>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama...
>>22509942Think I'm gonna have to buy Sandland for sure now.

>>22509942Died in the Year of the Dragon too.
>>22509942why do japs always die of brain clots? its not even just anime/mangaka but a lot of musicians die this way too
>>22511033Voice actors as well. Kaneto Shiozawa fell from stairs.
>>22511033It's far from always, but this (like a dissecting aneurysm) is the kind of thing that can cause catastrophic damage extremely quickly with basically no warning. You're going to get more of them in countries where people live a fairly healthy lifestyle and have decent access to proper medical care.
The state of dokkan probably caused the clot
>>22510264Wait the YuGiOh guy died too?>eaten by sharks
https://files.catbox.moe/9rgax4.mp4
>>22511053Yeah, back in the summer of 2022.
>>22511033Sitting in a compact position for long periods puts certain parts of your circulatory system under undue strain, especially as you age and shit like arterial plaque builds up, your arteries stiffen, smoking and drinking, etc. Lots of these guys are under heaps of stress too which contributes to eventual hypertensive disorders, left untreated can result in aneurysms, strokes, and higher risks of stuff like dissections that can lead to brain bleeding. Mangaka's are historically extremely unhealthy people due to their lifestyle.
>>22511057I remember that one 4-koma of Mizuki lambasting Tezuka and Ishinomori for their lifestyles and how he outlived them both
>>22510533The closest I think well get is the sandland game thats coming out. Probably all his mech and vehicle designs.
>>22511060Get a good night's fucking sleep. Its good advice.
>>22511053anon he drowned
>>22510262>>22510271It's kinda crazy to think we still have guys like Nagai, Tomino, and Miyazaki who have out lived so many of the artists of an industry-culture that they were foundational figures to.At this rate I expect to hear of Anno passing before those guys.
>>22511088I hope Anouma is next.
>>22511094Zelda guy?
>>22511097Yeah
>>22511094>he thinks this will magically change zelda's gameplay
>>22509942Rip to the legend
>>22511102I'm pretty sure Retro would do a better job than he could.
>>22511110ah the clueless type, how nice to dream
>>22511114>Spents 6 years on making half assed game.yeah he's shit.
Rip to the 5 Turbo
>>22511118again>thinks it's a single guy doing all the thing>forgetting the whole successor culture and work ethic in japanI know you gamers like this rockstar mindset with your kojimas and the like but do understand how reality works. the fact that you still think retro is still capable is also hilarious.
>>22510136>I didn't expect it to happen this year, I thought he had a few more in him.He had plenty left. Cause of death was a random stroke that came out of left field.
>>22511122>Makes WW and those ds games for his kid.Explain that.
>>22511124I was actually surprised it wasn't something respiratory that got him in, then again smoking causes issues beyond the lungs
>>22511110>RetroSo tezuka?
>>22511130>tezukahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retro_Studios
>>22511128yes anon, different games with different elements, with different teams handling. good god are you lost in /v/? go back there and leave this toriyama thread.
>>22511094He hasnt directed a zelda game since tp. Thats like saying you hope mario will be better when miyamoto dies.
>>22511131Sorry I meant tanabe. So you think tanabe would be a better producer?
>>22511134>He hasnt directed a zelda game since tp.ALBW and and that LA remake says otherwise.>>22511132He literally said that he worked on the DS games for his kid.
>>22511139yes and?
>>22511138I have 0 idea who that is.
>>22511140AlBW and the LA remake came to be because of Anouma.
>>22511141The guy who produced every single one of retros games.
>doesn't know devs, producers and shit unless it's spouted in typical imageboard/reddit/twitter gamer rantit really is a /v/ poster
>>22511139Yeah he was the producer for those. He didnt direct them. The first zelda game he didnt direct was ss.
>>22511145Probably an underage or a retard.
>>22511144>The guy who produced every single one of retros games.Miyamoto thinks it would've been a good idea for Retro to do it after SS flopped.>>22511145I'm from here.>>22511146And he still have full control of the brand.
god he's still trying
>>22511153All of your responses are assinine.
>>22511160So is avatar fagging.
>>22511162Im not him but ok.
>>22511085Yeah that does happen to people being eaten alive by sharks.
>>22511085I'm just going with the first article i found. Poor fucking guy.
>>22511063that's grim in hindsight
>>22511076>Izumi MatsumotoFuck you just made me remember that. Kimagure Orange Road was the first subbed anime I ever watched way back in 2006 when I managed to get the DVDs. >Kentaro MiuraThat was another donkey kick to the balls. I watched the 1998 anime as a kid and read the manga ever since translations came out. Man the last couple of years sucks ass. Maybe it is the end of times.
Bulma was based on Rag too
>>22511351Like the other guy said, it's very good advice. Sleep is extremely important for your well being in a variety of ways.
>>22509942Unironically I wanted a mecha manga from him, him and Oda I wanted to see their takes on the genre
>>22510756A wild "Lazy" Matsumoto troll appears....
>>22511350Going back a bit, but the most fitting "nautical" death of a creator was when Nishizaki fell to his death off a 500 ton research "steamship" (I loved that lost in translation bit, only translation better would have been "cruiser") named - what else - Yamato. The 'Nish was ostensibly suiting up for a dive but one wonders given his history of owning a full-auto M16 (with Tony Montana grenade launcher mounted, no shit) in Japan along with a "speedball" of drugs and various artillery sufficient to conquer a small country...brings a tear to the eye really thinking of it all. The legends are departing too fast.
>>22511350IIRC he dove in to save some people and drowned as a result of that, then creatures nibbled on him after death
I liked metal cooler.
>>22510152nagai saw the rise and dead of them all, must feel weird to him
>>22511455>Bejita beating Bulma after finding out she fucked Yamcha.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAmC5RNTbtE
>>22511353Matsumoto and Toriyama are hanging together in the afterlife with Hiromi Tsuru (Madoka and Bulma)
>>22511124These sudden death things are terrifying as you get older. I think a stroke or something similar got our Jilpoong ages ago (and he was pretty young IIRC), and Miura also IIRC had an aortic dissection that absolutely nobody could have seen coming.
Feels so surreal this happened.
>22510003Kamehameha, Toriyama
>>22510837Choreography and panel composition too
>>22511741>driving car licenseman that was the best fucking filler episode ever
>>22511882I forgot that she passed away a few years ago. I loved her as Madoka and Bulma.
My dream of him ever collaborating with Gundam or a new mecha IP are gone.
>>22512802one of his assistants might spec more into mecha, though. i think at least one of them is as big of a maschinen krieger fan as he was
>>22512802There's still people like Atsuji Yamamoto or Hisashi Eguchi who are part of Toriyama's generation and share very similar styles and passion for mechanical designs, Yamamoto in particular has extremely similar mechanical designs although he's overall a much better artist and mangaka than Toriyama but people aren't ready for this conversation and this is not a good time to start it either.Good luck getting Bandai to call them though, especially for a Gundam game, Yamamoto at least works on Metal Max games to this day so you can still get some cool stuff, iirc Yoshihisa Tagami also used to draw very similar mechanical designs, even look by looking at things like Galvion you wouldn't say that.
>>22509987Stunning and brave, thank you sincerely. t. Toriyama’s ghost
>>22510033I wish he did a serious racing/mecha manga. It would have been regarded among Five Star Stories and Dragon's Heaven for its art.
>>22512933You are tripping.
>>22512802He drew this a long time ago
>>22513037randpa withput the goatee feels wrong...
>>22513042The red is a tongue not a goatee
Apparently Dragon Ball was almost picked up by Harmony Goldhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzlWYSo3SV4Wonder how that would have changed it's popularity in the US
I like how futuristic yet archaic the vehicles where, Like this feels like if Volkswagen circa 1970 made a plane.

>>22510372For a second I had a brain fart and questioned why specifically his tweet was singled out, then I remembered oh right, Furuya was Yamcha.
This is more /k/ than /m/ but he designed model kits of countries' soldiers with hyper-detailed weapons. And yes, the model does actually look like a 3D version of the art. It's honestly insane how accurate that ZB-26 is
>>22527958
>>22527961
>>22527962
>>22527966
>>22527967>From your perspective, Katsura-sensei, what is something you find incredible about Toriyama-sensei?>Katsura: That sense of clarity, and design. Toriyama-san‘s pictures have nothing unpleasant about them. I think that’s great about them, and I find it amazing. He’s incredibly good at drawing things in a caricatured style.>Toriyama: But on the flipside, I can’t draw them properly.>Katsura: Oh, you know that you can.>Toriyama: No I can’t!>Katsura: What, why not? Take those plastic model soldier packages for instance: you made their faces big, but if you drew them in a normal, smaller size then they’d be fine.>Toriyama: But it wouldn’t be like me to draw them that way. I don’t really like drawing proper proportions. Especially not in manga.>Katsura: So you could draw it but you choose not to. Still, you’re in a world where you can say “this is the way I am”. I think that’s your forte. Whereas I can’t commit and just draw all kinds of things.
>>22512193That's something I've seen a lot of people come around to recently, the realization of how damn good Toriyama was at composition in his panels, to the point you didn't really even notice it while reading.
>>22527958>>22527970Neat stuff.
>>22528597I think the biggest reason was because more people were familiar with the old anime, not the manga, and the anime never did Toriyama's art justice.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHoIkSsPEWk
>>22509942Imagine being such a prolific designer that the fucking Dragon Quest slime ISN'T the most iconic thing you've ever drawn.Rest in peace mr. Toriyama. You were beloved by the entire world and will be dearly missed.
>>22511943>Jilpoong ages ago (and he was pretty young IIRC)yeah Jilpoong was def ahead of schedule>>22528597that's one of those things that if you're good at it then nobody notices because you're that damn good, and don't need to lean on GET IT like Doc Manhattan with his dong at the keyhole>>22531536>that the fucking Dragon Quest slime ISN'T the most iconic thing you've ever drawn.tbdesu I have a lot more crap around my house of the DQ slime than anything Dragonball, but yeah, that's a hell of a thing to define no small amount of the visual canon of the world's view of fantasy crap, but your fight monkeymans overshadow it

>>22509987It hardly seems real that such a monumental figure in the industry is gone so soon; I'd have thought he still had a while to go at his age but then a bizarre twist of fate results in an untimely end like that and blindsides everyone. The guy definitely had an aptitude for mechanical designs and fine details, and his material could be surprisingly humorous as well as entertaining, and I'm glad I had and took the opportunity to enjoy his work in my youth.
>>22533476It has come out that he had a brain tumor and had surgery last month, February. It's like his death was a result of the operation, so it wasn't a complete accident, although the public wasn't made aware of his health issues. He wrote a statement for a newspaper back in December talking about not knowing for how long he'd be able to work, although not mentioning directly any specific issues.https://twitter.com/SupaChronicles/status/1767094124337897841>Finally, I would like to thank everyone who has supported me so far! I am not sure how much more I can do, as I am not very confident about my health, probably due to my lifestyle when I was younger, but I will try my best to create more interesting pieces of work, so please continue to support me!"

>>22537217Kei Tomiyama (Kyosuke's dad and Yang Wen-li) died back in 1995 which probably explains why the father didn't really appear in the Shin Orange Road movie.
>>22539262>Shin Orange Road movieHated the art style of that movie. Glad things got patched up between Kyosuke, Madoka, and Hikaru. Forgot that Kyosuke's dad voiced Yang. Reminds me of 2006 when I heard Hirotaka Suzuoki passed away. He did the following anime roles:- Tenshinhan from DB/DBZ/DBGT- Bright from MSG/Z/ZZ/CCA- Dragon Shiryu from Saint Seiya- Kuno from Ranma 1/2- Saito from Rurouni KenshinWe keep losing more and more of the people who brought us so much joy in anime and manga.

>>22542870there's toriyama-styled concept art for that sprite art, it's probably safe to assume it's him or one of his assistants.
>>22511037The creepy thing is that his last anime role was Mr. Shiozawa from Gate Keepers; a role where he played an entity that masquerades as humans. His character legitimately thought he was a human being and had a mental meltdown when he realized he was an Invader. I always remembered Shiozawa for being the voice of Rei from Fist of the North Star. >>22548360Yeah don't remind me.

So, I was super excited for the Synduality game until I got my hands on it for the beta. Then I found Sand Land and its just a straight up better version>Single player vs multiplayer>housing has linear upgrades and you can't even interact with it vs housing being completely customizable and interactable>not a lot of mech customization vs 7+ different robots each with a number of different options >robots all pilot the same vs robots pilot completely different>no ability to paint robot vs custom paint robot>visual character customization vs skill tree customization>brainless waifu vs actual side charactersGod bless Toriyama for this one last gift before he left.

I feel this thread already had it’s final wishes but a lot of these “bumps” feel artificial in the end.
>>22589177Whoops, forgot to do the options field.
>>22589177Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and send it off with a dump of some Dr. Slump stuff
Some covers
Some individual pages
The part where Toriyama shows his love for Xabungle
The /m/e/m/orial collage
Quick shot of the man himself
Quick interruption by future Robo Toriyama (circa 1995)
Some interesting bits about Toriyama himself
The Toriyama and [X] series
And I think that's about enough outta me. May you rest in eternal peace Mr. Toriyama, and may your spirit live eternally through your works.
>>22590145how the hell did he make it look so realistic and cartoony at the same time
>>22590845I'd say it's the natural result of his deep love for real machines mixing with his inherently cartoony style. Basically >>22527970
>>22590845Attention to detail while not neglecting his personal style.
