I really am saddened by the death of Akira Toriyama. He influenced and inspired so many artists and styles throughout his life, including my own art I wouldn't be the artist I am today had I not been introduced to his stories. My point is, thank you. Even if he can't read this now, I feel like it should be known how much he changed manga and anime for the better and I really hope he knew how much of an impact he had and I also hope he was proud of himself because everything he achieved was absolutely amazing.

Rest in peace, and thank you for everything 💔

Finally feel like I can say something coherent, so here goes... I say this without a shred of exaggeration: Akira Toriyama was legitimately one of the most important creative figures of the last 50 years. His work, especially Dragon Ball, has influenced SO much even outside its own medium. Movies, TV, cartoons, comic books, video games, MUSIC... all of it. You can see his fingerprints in so many other works. Even now, artists and writers, voice actors and animators, musicians and game devs are all mourning him and reflecting on the impact he had on their own work. Titans of anime and manga are sharing in this pain. The craziest thing about this though? The humility he had in spite of it. He was always reluctant to be in the spotlight, preferred to keep his head down and just work, never really worried that much about public perception of himself. Part of what makes him such an icon, man. Losing him is losing a piece of our shared history. It's something that resonates deep in the hearts of everyone his work touched. This is just... such a loss. And I can't even begin to imagine what his family is going through right now. Praying for them all. Rest in Peace to a literal Legend, an absolute Icon, and a personal inspiration in more ways than I could ever express properly.

AKIRA TORIYAMA | 1955-2024

Rest in peace, sir. You will be dearly missed by all ❤

Fyodor is so bad at flirting 💀

OK THE ART IS BEAUTIFUL BUT THE FACT THEY PROBABLY DID HAVE A SITUATIONSHIP IS KILLING ME-

You don't understand how this has moved me to tears, istg- 🤚💀

What if Jesus and Dostoevsky were something more than oomfs…

"An unconcious Sigma" let's smack him against the floor 15 tines because he's too pretty for this world

I don't think you are all talking enough about this. The genuine guilt and pain in his eyes. The flashback that reminds him of how much he's shared with Fukuchi. How far they go back with one another. How much they really mean to one another. How Fukuchi had accepted his fate whereas Fukuzawa couldn't even bring himself to do it. You do not understand how this has broken me.

Fyodor going to a museum be like:

Fyodor: no, the Romans actually didn't do that, that's a myth

Worker: with all due respect, we are a museum and our staff are experts in their fields so I think they would know-

Fyodor: bitch were they there? Didn't see them there when I was gossiping and drinking fine wine with julius caesar

Oh good, I'm not the only one gay for Bram

The takeaway? Fyodor is immortal and needs to drop the skincare routine now

Been a bad bitch since metal armour was in fashion

The genuine pain in his eyes, like Aya is overjoyed that they won but its so hard to feel happy about it after seeing the pure regret and hurt in Fukuzawa's eyes
