What is the Future of Dragon Ball Super Following the Untimely Death of Akira Toriyama

On March 8th, the world of anime and manga lost a luminary whose works shaped generations of battle shounen enthusiasts. It was revealed via an official statement posted to the Dragon Ball X Page that Toriyama had passed away on the first of March, 2024. The entire ani-manga community is in mourning right now because Dragon Ball is a franchise that helped make anime global, and Toriyama was a direct inspiration for many famous mangakas. But it also begs the question: what is the future of Dragon Ball Super now that its creator is no longer with us? We’ll be answering that very question in this video.

Akira Toriyama didn't just create a few Mangas and Games. He paved the way for future generations.

Man it’s like losing a piece of our childhood 😞 He was a genius and way ahead of his time! He will forever be a LEGEND! The true OMNI KING 👑

[sephiroth]

This really broke my heart, DBZ WAS my childhood.

[grumpygizmo]

Toyotaro will surely keep Dragon Ball alive! Every DB fan just knows because HE is one of us and actually Akira Toriyama's pupil.

I may not be a huge fun of the Dragon Ball franchise but I have huge respect for Akira Toriyama. If it wasn’t for him, anime and manga wouldn’t be popular here in the west. It’s pretty heartbreaking he died so young. May he Rest in Peace.

Daima will be the last animation that toriyama will have worked on. Ik it’s art style doesn’t look flashy but please all of us should watch it as a memorium for what he has done in his life. Rip

[bernbern]

He will be missed, rest easy Akira Toriyama. Ive known your work since childhood. Your work had a huge impact on my life. Thank you for bringing this to us because without you, there would be NO Dragonball.

If it’s to make sure dragon ball super manga will get a proper end, then I’ll put my trust in toyotarou. This was Toriyama last work and needs to do right

[gryphon]

Akira is chilling like a villian with the Zeno Twins

[domesticdragonwaffle]

No anime has ever had the impact that DragonBall had upon the world, and I don't believe another ever will. Toriyama was unique and a once in eternity type of person, just like Robin Williams. Rest in Peace.

The future for dragon ball remains relatively the same. Toyotarou has been basically writting dragon ball super.

[JodaroKujo]

farewell toriyama, you are truly number 1

[Blackut]

I have faith Tayotaro will continue toriyama's legacy well and since he's not held beck by the same memory issues as toriyama like forgetting launch and ssj3 i think the series is in good hands besides i personally love the moro and granolah ark despite the haters so i support his work rest easy Toriyama 🙏

[jinxx]

Toriyama saw something in Toyotarou, enough to make him his successor. If he had faith then I believe we all should. It wont be the same, but it's faith from the creator to live up to be what it should be.

RIP Akira Toriyama - sensei. You will be greatly missed o7. The kids to adults you've inspired are many and will remember you for your work always.

As Goku told Goku jr. at the end of GT: It wasn't the dragon ball, It was your love and courage that opened the right doors. Stay Pure, THAT's your order.

It's all in Toyotaro - san's hands now to carry on and make Toriyama - sensei proud or close the door on Dragonball as a whole and make something new. I for one will respect whatever he decides.

[pflynn]

No idea if DBS manga will continue but I would like to see the rest of it being animated but apart from that rest in peace Akira Toriyama

[superpaul]

Now Akira rides with Shenron to the far future to see his great great grandchildren.

[ghallium-jv]

For Dragon Ball GT, Toriyama provided original character designs for the main characters, made some illustrations to show the tone of the series, and also designed the spaceship and the logo. Yes, he wasn't involved beyond that but his contribution to GT is something.

I was born in 1990 and grew up watching Dragon Ball when I was in elementary school. Toriyama's death makes me very sad because it feels like my childhood memories are being erased. I think that men from all contemporary countries would feel the same way as me.

[gerardorodriguez]

I hope Toyotarou will continue Akira Toriyama’s legacy by continuing the Dragon Ball Franchise with him doing both the Writing and art work of the manga and anime
