I made this artwork in 2022 for Toontober, but ended up using his blue uniform for Kid Goku. I figured I'd share it here since this version hasn't been used.

I also wanted to post this in honor of Akira Toriyama who passed away recently.


R.I.P. Akira Toriyama (1955-2024)
I recently found out about it this morning. One of the GJ users posted about it. It's very sad and unfortunate. It was found out that he died on March 1st, 2024. His family did a private funeral. That's why no one knew about it until they made announcement about it. His works were very creative. He was 68 years old. He has certainly left a legacy and inspired a lot of artists and anime.

I started watching the Dragon Ball series back in 2022. I had a friend back in high school who was a big fan of DBZ. He would talk about it all the time. I wasn't interested in it back then, but I would still listen to him talk about it. I did know a few things from the show. It wasn't until recent years that I decided to watch the show. I watched Dragon Ball and then DBZ. I need to go back and finish DBZ.

Watching Dragon Ball had a "sense of adventure" when Goku was just a kid. Trying to collect all the dragon balls. Toriyama had a lot of creative ideas and awesome worldbuilding in the world of Dragon Ball.

Then I started watching DBZ. It just got better and better. Fun fighting scenes. Interesting character arcs, etc. I ended where Gohan is now a teen and has his alter ego, the Great Saiyaman, and then I took a break watching the show. Now I just need to go back and finish it.

I'm curious how the Dragon Ball will continue on. I heard that supposedly Toriyama has already found someone to continue the series before he passed away. I guess we'll see how things will go for the future of Dragon Ball.

May Akira Toriyama rest in peace and my condolences go towards his family. Thank you for creating such a unique series and inspiring others to create their own stories.

Which Video Game Do You Wish Had An Animated Series? #GJAsks

Metroid. I'm surprised this hasn't gotten a TV show or movie yet. Because the story and lore is so interesting.

I would also like to see Star Fox be made into a TV series as well.

What's the Funniest Video Game You've Ever Played? #GJAsks

Katamari Damacy and Rabbids Go Home.

These two games are really funny. I played Rabbids Go Home first, and later on I got Katamari Damacy ReRoll remaster for Switch.

Last week, my copy of The Legends CookBook+ has finally arrived!

It did get delayed, but after a year, it's finally here. Although, it was a bit pricey for the physical book. Overall, I'm very excited to get started!

My favorite #CoOpMemory was playing the final Big Run (Salmon Run) and fighting the Triumvirate and playing the Grand Festival (Final Splatfest). I played with different groups of people from a Splatoon Discord.

One of my favorite TV shows is Batman: The Animated Series.

Why I love this show is because it's got action, mystery, drama, good storytelling, good characterization of the characters, good animation, etc.
