RE: 'Akira Toriyama' :Japanese Famous Cartoonist 日本の有名な漫画家 鳥山明 [English and Japanese]

I was shocked to hear he died. Only 68! That is too young to die. I grew up watching Dragonball and playing Dragon Quest for the NES (famicom). Later when I was in high school I really enjoyed Chrono Trigger for the SNES which Toriyama also did all the designs and art for and helped with the story. My son really likes Dragonball Super, so he was also sad when he heard the news. Toriyama was working on a new Dragonball series. I wonder what will happen to it now. Anyway, it's too bad.

Yes, he was only 68... Chrono Trigger! Natsukashii. I don't play games much, but I know the game. It's for Super Famicom, right? It's nice to hear you and your son have a common favourite anime like Dragon Ball. Was he working on a new series? That's so sad to hear...kanashii.
