It's frustrating bcz everyone I know in real life doesn't know who he is, and kinda doesnt care. But the outpouring of sadness online reflects how I feel right now.

It's really sweet, and I'm glad people are paying their respects. This man basically made my childhood what it was. RIP Akira Toriyama

One of the group chats that I shared this gif below with claimed I was gullible for believing it.

He was only 68? He's been one of the biggest names in Manga writing/character design for over 40 years.

I mean, yes, this is beautiful. But like ... I would be extremity mad if someone wished that for me without my consent. (It wound prob be my employer tho)

This is beautiful. Toriyama's passing has affected me pretty hard. I never met him, never knew him, but I feel like a part of myself has gone to sleep forever and it's hard to reconcile that I can't express the joy he brought me to the ones that I love the most. This is such a tough loss for so many
