As reported in the New York Times on March 8, 2024, Akira Toriyama Sensei (creator of ‘Dragon Ball’ and countless other works) has died at the age of 68. We at Glazed Watermelon wanted to express our gratitude to Toriyama Sensei for all his amazing work in manga, anime, and video games. He truly shaped our youths with the values he presented through his characters: be good, make friends, and fight for what’s right. Goku in ‘Dragon Ball’ always tried to make friends out of his enemies, a trait we should always strive for. May his works live forever, and may he rest in peace.
