    Rest in peace. One of the biggest influences of my childhood. Sad to hear he’s gone, but what a life he’d had. <3

    Seems like out of the blue. He’s outlived by Goku’s voice actress.

    Rip, what a legend. Not too many people can say they touched the hearts and imaginations of so many people across the world.

      I know. Logically it makes sense but I wasn’t expecting it at all. Felt in my heart like he would outlive me. In many ways Im sure he will.

      Yeah. Not every day you get sad news like this and think “His work partly shaped who I am today”.

      Legend indeed.

    Really sad to see all these creators of legendary series like Yu-Gi-Oh and Dragon Ball dying. Rest in peace.

        Not only that but he died giving his life to help save others. He died a hero.

    I didn’t grow up with Dragon ball, frankly not a big fan of the art style either, but I recognize the importance he and his work brought to the manga and anime industry. Rest in peace, legend.

    I never really liked Dragonball but I loved Chrono Trigger. I’m devastated nonetheless to hear he passed.
