You know, Dragon Ball Z was the very first anime that I watched as a kid...and honestly, I still can't believe he's gone...condolences to his family by the way...

Both Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon were my intro to anime when I was a kid. I kind of crack up thinking about the super long arcs of Freeza and my favorite arc the Cell games.
It's hard to believe Toriyama passed away. His family has my condolences, and he shall be remembered through his works.
My first acquaintance with the work of Akira Toriyama, like most westerners, was the dubbed and heavily censored version of Dragon Ball Z. To be honest, I wasn't fond of it-- especially when Funimation switched to in-house dubbing and all the characters' voices changed.
It seems like now, because of his death, I have some curiosity in the original Japanese version of Dragon Ball. I kind of want to give in another chance. That doesn't make me a poser, does it?
Call it karma. Call it luck. Me, I just don't give a... BOUNCE!

Rest in peace Toriyama....I may have not been a DBz fan, but I know what it's like to loose a beloved creator to a series you love.
