I still can't believe the recent news.
I still can't believe Akira Toriyama is gone.
Well, he might be gone, but definitely not forgotten.
No matter what some might say, his legacy will probably outlast most of us.
And it all started in a simple, but charming manner, with a light-hearted adventure where anything could happen, a tale filled with magic, talking animals, lots of bizarre anachronisms...
The Dragon Ball world was such a crazy place on its beginning. But it was precisely that unpredictable craziness what made it so fun to watch.
As a kid, I was already about the existence of Dragon Ball Z due toys and other mechandising. And I often wondered if those elements (such as Super Saiyans) would ever appear on the first series.
When you are a kid, you want things happen as soon as possible. But as an adult, one realizes how the ride can be at times as more exciting than the destination.
The first Dragon Ball didn't have super saiyans and incredibly high power levels, but it was awesome anyway.
I enjoyed a lot the adventures of little Goku as a kid. I still enjoyed them a lot as an adult, but this joy now will also be accompanied with a bittersweet taste of melancholy knowing the unforgivable pass of the time.
Thanks for everything, Akira Toriyama. Might your legend live on!
