Guess what?

I’m an even older fart today!

I was born April 2, 1975.  Guess what else debuted that week?

SUPER SENTAI!

Himitsu Sentai Goranger debuted on April 5th of 1975. So did:

Kamen Rider Stronger!

So, I might be older than dirt but at least I am in good company.  And heck, no one’s stolen my birth…

Oh, Dammit.

Famed manga creator Akira Toriyama has passed away on March 1, 2024 at age 68 due to acute subdural hematoma.

Toriyama began his first serialized manga, Dr. Slump, in 1980, and it inspired two television anime and multiple films. Toriyama followed it up with Dragon Ball, which ran from 1984 to 1995, and is still inspiring manga and anime sequels and spinoffs today. The manga's Dragon Ball anime adaptation, its sequel Dragon Ball Z, and its other numerous sequels and anime films are equally as well-known as the manga, and its hero Goku has become a character known throughout the world.

Toriyama is also well-known as the character designer for the Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger, Blue Dragon and Tobal games.

Most recently, Toriyama was working closely with the production for the Dragon Ball Daima anime series, the most recent anime series based on Dragon Ball, and is credited for the new anime's story and character designs.

It's hard to believe the man behind both a series that changed my life and one of my favorite video games has passed. Toriyama's influence is legendary. The modern anime market (as we now know it) in America was born out of a three hit combo of Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, and Pokémon. One Piece is, in my opinion, Dragon Ball's successor and you can feel his influence heavily there.

He shaped quite a lot of my childhood and I want to thank him for it. Let's all indulge in our favorite Toriyama media this weekend and send our energy out into the cosmos.
