Not only did you level up in animation, but the storyboarding and pacing was perfect. You've leveled up as a director! This was so beautiful to watch, especially the tribute at the ending. My hats off to you man. You're a legend.
@@rahulvijay1781 OG used to mean Original Gangster allthough some people these days use OG as a quicker way of saying Original, but could be used to someone who as been here for a long time before others.
- Gives animations pure respect - Gives us a full 30 minute episode, total mad lad - Gives characters absolute respect (even Vegeta!!) - Gives us a surprise guest, peak emotions - Doesn't ask for much of anything, uploads for free on RU-vid for us to watch 10 / 10 artist and animator. Gotta love this guy. Thank you for the amazing video there's no words to describe how epic it was.
@@michalamdall This is a stupid commment, cos Toriyama was the sole reason for Daima, he put everything into Daima and put some new ideas in. And you're disappointed by it? Have some respect
I’m a 43 year old man. A husband and father of 2 boys. You made me go through basically every emotion. Then you had to add Sensei. Sir…. You need an entire production studio. You need a large budget and artists galore. I wish I could make that happen for you.
@@Omnipollner I feel young. I eat right. I exercise. I have lots of sex with a beautiful woman. I look younger than 90% of my HS graduating class. It’s possible via discipline and enjoying life my dude!
This type of comment is horrendously wrong, toxic and disrespectful to the animators who put everything they have into their craft to the point of getting hospitalized and almost dying occasionally. It ain’t cutting it even as a joke in my opinion. He may work alone but he has far more time to work on it without impossible deadlines. It’s absolutely ridiculous to compare him to the anime industry’s animation quality (which is mostly better than this anyways) The industry has far better animators than this guy, and he knows it too. Not to undermine his amazing talent, but this whole ‘’one fan animator puts entire studios to shame’’ nonsense has to go.
Try adding characters from other anime, like naruto, one piece, or jjk. And try to include other db characters like gohan, piccolo, and broly. That would be peak.
@@AnisurRahman-fv2rjsooo, you are saying a company with dozens of animators make a better job than one sole animator ? (And it’s debatable, the resurrection of F arc in the anime was worse)
Y'all people need to stop complaining about 7 days. The dude basically works alone. Cut him a break damn. If y'all want more content faster then support the dude and he can do it faster
I'm an OPM fan myself. But Toriyama appearing... Vegeta vs goku first fight flashback... I couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you etoilec1 animation. It's your best animation in your entire career. I thank you from the deepest of my heart. I couldn't ask for anything more.❤
To make Toriyama sensei appear and make us cry like that? Thank you for everything Sensei, you will be missed by all, Dragon ball will never die, and your spirit will live on as long as there are fans like us to love Dragon ball, the greatest manga of all time. 😭🙏🕊🐉🔥
It looks like i am the only one that will forever hate this garbage even after his death for ruining the best anime of all time and Vegeta's character!
Same here.... I was born I the 80's so, yeah ..... the first ever db manga I got my ha ds on was from a girl from my my class in elementary . . . . She was getting them monthly in Korean , and we were in REPUBLIC DeMOCRATIC OF CONGOOOO. Imagine that . Dunno how she got them but I wasn't complaining, because she lent them to me as they came out . I didn't understand Korean- still don't, but I got the gist of ir from the graphics , and what's more, she taught herself to draw like toriyama sensei!!!! They were identical !!! I'm still bummed that I lost contact with her when I went back to my native country of Burundi. Her name was Katy or Cathy Mokolo can't find her anywhere . She literally made my childhood better
By far my favorite episode. Toriyama appearing was phenomenal. I’m sure the official DB studio would have done a tribute for Akira but let it be known that you, Etoilec1, was the first person to give us that moment. You pretty much solidified yourself in history so we thank you and good luck on all your future endeavors. 🤝
Akira Toryiama appearing at the end, helping Goku overcome mind control and saying goodbye to Popo and Dende, that was a nice heartfelt touch. You may be gone, but you'll never be forgotten.
That Lugia showing up in the middle of the Goku vs Vegeta fight had laughing my head on for the sheer absurdity of the poor thing getting caught in the middle. Akira Toriyama showing up for one final visit had me outright crying. Well done, thank you.
Lugia is protector of the seas on earth in the Pokémon universe so that was a lore accurate lugia appearance stopping them from creating too much chaos over the sea, this video was so well planned
@@themarvelrobit I was worried the entire time the critter was gonna get blown away by the two beings clearly far beyond him rather accidentally haha. But it's funny that instead he was just a random obstacle barely even acknowledged by Vegeta and in Goku's case, a flying platform. And even funnier after the Aeroblast, the two fly off like "Bleh, let's go play somewhere else."
This episode is clearly on another level, nostalgia, animation, storyline, that was crazy to watch. All that in 30min wow, your art deserve and need to be popular. RIP Toriyama
And this is how fights in DBZ should be, actual choreography, weight to their hits and few repeated animations and movements with an enviroment that reflects that. Hats off to you sir you are a true fan of the series and it shows in every shot.
I cried...man that was sad....epic fight but toriyamas legacy will live on in all of us...we can never let his dream die... this is the greatest anime to ever be created. Thank you for contributing to the legacy and never stop.
The year 2024 is a real vintage for us Dragon Ball fans, with Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, Dragon Ball Daima and now this video from Etoilec1 a real MASTERCLASS ❤️🔥💯 THANK YOU !!
I haven't cried in years. I didn't realize what was happening until these tears just came forth from my eyes and I remembered he has left us. You made my day. Not all tears are evil.
26:15 When Singing Mountain was playing for Akira Toriyama appearing at the lookout my heart burst into tears, thank you Akira sama for the memories RIP.
@@osamafaqruddin5585 Wtf you mean. You talk as if all dead people should be forgotten because they are corpses? Can't their memories live within us and take the form of a real person in our imagination? Widen your thought process, man. Did not expect humans like this to exist atleast. Extremely Disappointing.
Been looking for this one to show up for months. As usual, a masterpiece. The way Akira Toriyama shows up, the way Goku was broken out of God’s possession by Vegeta snapping him out of it, the choreography, everything tied together so well. Easily the best one yet.
Man, that tribute really did make it hit me just how much Akira Toriyama means to me. He and his works made me the person that I am today. I can’t possibly imagine where I would be without them. I’m beyond grateful. Excellent work.
This was the most incredible episode that i ever seen. I MEAN COME ON, YOU REALLY OUTDONE IT YOUR WORK! So much epic fight, so much emotions that you even featuring the creator of Dragon Ball! Rest in peace Akira Toriyama, you'll be missed
Man, I've never felt so emotional watching a fan animation about Dragon Ball in my life, thank you Etoilec, for making me feel proud to be a DB fan. And thank you to Sensei Toriyama, for creating such a beautiful story like this, Dragon Ball will forever be in my life
Hi, I'm a fan from Poland, you probably know the ADACHO channel, it discusses your productions in a very emotional way. A fan manga called "Adacho Balls" was created about him, and he was drawn into the world of dragon balls. I suspect he would be honored if you included his manga counterpart in your next movie 😎 greetings from Poland, and thank you for such an exciting episode🥹
Akira gave inspiration to all of us, here he gives it to Etoilec who expresses it through this series and we're all enjoying it. Thank you Akira, and much respect Etoilec, this was a masterpiece of an episode. This may just be your magnum opus.
What you just did bro😭😭.. The animations, the script, the music and sound effects, and mainly the concept😭 im in tears rn.. What a way to pay tribute! Hat's off to you man! Never thought i would cry seeing a fan made animation. The ending really touched my heart 🥺😭❤
From 22:24-24:23, That was just beautiful and made me cry as I saw Akria Toriyama saying goodbye to Goku one last time before he went. But the music bro 😭, it was so beautiful.
Its feels like I'm watching a movie. The chills the goosebumps!!! We're so lucky to watch and have a talented animator like you thank you for this master piece. 💯💯💯💯
