We couldn't believe it, when we heard the news today. But Super Legendary Manga and Anime Artist and Bird Studios founder, Akira Toriyama has died. He Cause of death is Unknown. He was 68
Akira Toryama was one of the greatest Manga and Anime artists of all time. He broke into the biz with his very first series,Dr. Slump in 1980. But his most famous work was Dragon Ball,which he created in 1984.
But that's not all, Akira Toriyama's also also did art for the Dragon Quest games,as well as the Legendary SNES RPG,Chrono Trigger.
One fun note,about Akira Toriyama is that he has an Avatar called Tori-bot,which he sometimes inserts into some of his works. Toriyama also has a caricature of himself, which makes random appearances in his Manga.
He Also made a cameo appearance in Chrono Trigger.
Personally, I always a huge fan of Toriyama's art style and Dragon Ball Z Is my All Time Favorite Anime. Plus, I Love Chrono Trigger.
Thank you So Much, Toriyama-sama. Thank you for everything. We will miss you like mad. May you rest in peace.

I heard of his passing last night before bedtime. And regarding how he died. He died of a subdural hematoma, which cause so much blood to enter the brain in a rather frightening rate. His death was unfortunate. If anime and manga had a holy trinity, it would be him, Naoko Takeuchi and Osamu Tezuka, which he is with now. Dragon Ball wouldn't exist if not for him. Godspeed, Toriyama-san.
