Akira Toriyama's rise to fame can sometimes be attributed to luck or some type of other anomaly. However, how much did factors like "luck or "chance" really play? Was it instead connections, some type of social status or skill that he had obtained prior. Well, join me today as we explore the early years of Toriyama and uncover the answer of how Akira Toriyama became one of Japan's wealthiest, in the span of just three years.

Something that Sean Schemmel said recently is that he’s surprised that Dragon Ball doesn’t have a theme park like Disney Land and I definitely agree with that. Toriyama’s work does have a great appeal to different age groups and that’s what I admire about him the most

The theme park is real now!

Damn, I can kind of relate to how he initially broke through. I too entered my comic series into a competition on a site called Webtoon back in 2018, for the chance of working for them. I didn't win or come runner up, so I lost all motivation for a long time. But my work still somehow caught the eye of one of the editors as they were looking through all the entries (only my panel layouts were absolutely awful). A month down the line, it led to Webtoon employing me and working along side the same editor too (God bless editors). I still currently work for them :)

I find Toriuama's success inspiring. It all comes down to trying harder and never giving up. Just like his character Goku.

@GeteMachine 2 года назад

I don't think it was dumb luck at all. Being a mangaka doing multiple works, often at once and having to please strict editors, is thankless and laborious.

@mechajay3358 2 года назад

Toriyama's success is a really inspiring one. He continued to on his path as a artist until he had his first hit with Dr. Slump and again with Dragon Ball.

@jamiemcneil9682 2 года назад

This is what a great editor can do for a series. They may not necessarily be right all the time, but they can push a creator to think outside of the box.

@timtapp5931 2 года назад

Thanks for covering the history of Toriyama-sensei's career in manga. There seems to be, at times, this revisionist history attitude to discredit Toriyama's skills, ability, as a story teller and mangaka. Videos like these help show and remind, people that his success is driven by his hardwork and tenacity. This is something we can all experience in our own personal journey.

@GeteMachine 2 года назад

People tend to not get when hes just joking about himself and think his forgetfulness is like some sort of idiocy (kind of like how Super treats Goku ironically), because of how often it gets exaggerated or blamed for things Toei does that fans don't like, but people here just think he writes everything. He doesn't didn't anything more than his manga and art for some things. People in America don't get that he has next to nothing to do with the movies, anime, super, GT and the video games.

@infernaldisdain8051 2 года назад

@@GeteMachine He has more to do with Super than the other stuff since he basically wrote part of it and supervised the rest. But it isn't only him much like you say. Also I wouldn't say him talking down about himself is a joke, I see it often with many mangaka and other such Japanese creators, it seems to be self deprecation in order not to seem too full of themselves and you are right, people can't seem to see past it and say it's the immediate and only truth.

@9ra307 2 года назад

Damn. This is inspirational. As an artist who has been working on a story for the longest, I have only one real weakness. I have been told so many times that I tell good stories; but man am I a HUGE procrastinator. I have a few stories with a cast of characters and an entire of world built for them. But I hold off actually drawing them. A different than when I was in school and drew all day everyday trying to get better.

@snin3202 2 года назад

Same here.. Real question. Why we tend to be more productive in school era 😂 while when we got a freedom that we want, we procrastinate.. Seems like the energy to avoid repetitive activities (which is school) gave us that inspiration and motivation. Now that motivation that we like before become our daily repetitive thing. 😬
