Saying Goodbye to a Legend | Trash Taste  

I would love that holy

I'd buy garnt turtlenecks

I was worried Joey with his Arakasa long-sleeved was going to be one like Connor with his 10x 1 shirt.

@@DarkFireBlade25 you know I might actually want that.

I don't wear turtlenecks, but I would wear one that's branded Steve handjobs

The TFS reference is perfect but yeah RIP Toriyama

Go live your dreams ❤

he did what

​@@YourPalA.D it's a manga thing

@@YourPalA.D The lyrics to cha-la head cha-la describe teaching a dinosaur to ride a ball. There’s a joke in TFS’ The Revenge of Cooler video where Goku heals a bird using Ki and then says “Go Toriyama, and teach a dinosaur to ride a ball”. Tori = bird Yama= mountain That’s the reference. EDIT: small correction, the lyric says “if there’s a dinosaur, I want to train it to balance on a ball”, it doesn’t mention a bird specifically.

I got so frustrated listening on the podcast that I came here to try and bitch about it lol, thanks for covering it Mudan

To be fair he did correct himself soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ye, but still agree with you tho

The 3 of them have the confidence to talk out of their asses. Garnt being the one with the least incidents and Connor the most.

It is a podcast at the end of the day. It is inevitable.

One of the reasons why I stopped watching the podcast ngl. I can't take the braindead takes sometimes.

I had a google, and him in that cool suit... With those shoes... Deserved!

Really hope this comment doesn't age poorly. They'll sometimes change the title and thumbnail after a couple days of release.

Yes Akira has inspired many including me

​@@jujube9748 yeah I noticed but I doubt they will

Tobe honest, I would expect nothing less for the godfather of shounen and the guy who arguably popularized anime and manga internationally.

​@@jujube9748 I don't think they will for this episode. They also dedicated an episode to Kentaro Miura when he passed away and they never changed it.

I never knew Dragon Ball was so huge in LatAm. Wonder why.

@@destituteanddecadent9106same, i've all ways wondered why/how did it get so big.

​@@destituteanddecadent9106a big part of it is the message to become stronger in the face of adversity. Life can be really hard over there and all kinds of shit can happen depending on who you are and where you're from. The uniting message to take it on the chin and get better connects a lot of people. That plus meme culture and the fact that it's had a long time to spread means basically everyone has heard of it. I know a few Latinos personally that really deeply look up to Goku in a way I'll never fully understand. I just keep seeing him smiling as Gohan gets destroyed

@@destituteanddecadent9106 Well it could be for a multiple of reasons. for one, Back then most Latin American Tv stations didn't have (and some still don't) the budget for animated shows, so most animated shows would be imported from other nations. While we did got USA cartoons such as He-man, gi joe, thundercats those were episodic with not a long running story arc or much character development, that's were anime was different. Latino audience graduated towards shows that did have story progression and character development. A funny way to put it is, anime was animated novelas for us haha. Not only did my generation, and the next one after mine grew up with anime, but many of the older generation also grew up with anime. With shows like candy candy, captain tsubasa (supercampeones) etc. It also helps that the dubs we got here were super loyal to the original Japanese, with little censorship or changes, keeping names of the characters attacks and keeping the og music, and with amazing voice actors, and tbh, many values and customs of Japanese culture are way more similar to that of Latino culture than that of lets say the USA As for why Dragon Ball was the one that really stood out and capture Latinos well maybe it was a shows that both grown ups and kids could enjoy together, maybe it was the character of Goku and his resilience never give up Ill quote Iker Ruiz to answer that "Toriyama's work went beyond simple battles between heroes and villains, there we found valuable lessons about friendship, courage, perseverance and self-improvement. Through his characters, Toriyama taught us that true power lies in the spirit and in the bonds we forge with those around us."

​@@destituteanddecadent9106it was one of the first animes we ever saw, the dub was great from the get go, we didnt had to go through 10 different dubs, we saw Goku grow up thru out the story and we could connect more, the epic fights and alot of comedy, a perfect balance.

It's so crazy, his work really needs to be studied way more. The way his brain worked is something that we barely see, dude was creating things so unconventional to his time that he ended up revolutionizing ENTIRE GENRES. He created shonen tropes that are being used still to THIS DAY on the spot while he was coming up with ideas while writing and drawing his manga week by week!!

@@leightonrud66 what a sad life to live lmao

Yeah when I loved Sonic, I realized its influence came from DBZ and that led me to watching DBZ and appreciating its impact, as well as a good shonen anime to grow up watching

@@soyakat​​⁠he reminds of the quote by CS Lewis: “Try to tell the truth as you see it and do work for works sake and what men call originality will come unsought”. To Toriyama it was effortless. Innovation came unsought to him. He does need to be studied more. There’s so many things in the video game world, art world, anime world, pop culture world, cartooning world that is so normal and mundane today that we don’t even question where it came from. A lot of those things can be traced back to him somehow.

@@leightonrud66dr slump manga and Dragonball manga are amazing. Two manga hits is only what VERY few have ever done

UNHINGED

Australian.

To make his pops proud 😂

'cause that's how his dad did it.

Like father like son

Entire central and south America

I too am Mexican, and I too watched dragon ball growing up. Rip, Akira Toriyama! I hope he knows he changed so many young lives.

😊

Seriously,trash taste has spoiled me to the core

nahh

what

He's not the father. Stuff like kinnikuman ring ni kakero and ashita no joe already established everything prior. He famously called himself lazy, if anything he was the cool uncle of shonen

Hokuto no Ken

@@Kyuzo897 which was preceeded by violence jack

​@@pheunithpsychic-watertype9881 Always that one guy brew. For most of us he is and always will be father of not only shonen, father of anime!

Rip 2 the Goat ❤

this, joey seems to forget that the northern beeches is in a separate world to the rest of Sydney

Your experience with public transport can drastically change depending on your region. Western Sydney still has a long way to go to catch up.

Yours is also technically inaccurate as you said it depends on where you live

can someone plz give me the timestamp for the "middle" please ? asking for a friend edit: nevermind found it 51:42

This is one of the most time stamps of all time.

For me honestly it's noaki urasawa but toriyama is there as well

​@@Wavy612 that's why the op said that the title in of itself is extremely arbitrary since you can give that title to anyone given that they have very good accolades

@@kennethmendoza1350 yup they're all goats

Born in the year of the goat, passed in the year of the dragon.

​@@scott7224that goes so hard

tbf dudes actually goated how he was working on FT 100 year quest and Eden's Zero and somehow still have alot of free time is insane lmao

I said it on here but ill repeat it, Honestly, It really seamed like Akira Toriyama got way more respect from his passing than the Queen did

And I loved that the few toxic people online disrespecting Toriyama just got dragged through the mud by everyone on the internet

fr seeing nfl and nba stars/media people making posts about it just goes to show the reach he had

It was gross and weird.

@@kairos_fluentweaklings. No crunchy cockroaches for you then

@@degenerateprick3288doesn’t make someone a weakling to find it gross lol.

'Stralya innit

nah you are just overanalyzing everything like a weirdo

I mean there would eventually come someone who would have done it too, anime was in its very early days of the 80s and as there were other big animes around the time there were also about to come other big ones around the corner who would have taken his spot instead, even some videogames would have filled that gap and spread it back to anime if so. I agree things would have been different and some tropes would have been pushed in to later years and JoJo references would probably be even more frequent than it is now.

I mean he was making manga in the 80s which got a lot of people growing up with it, and its around the time when japanese anime and games came to the west. Not to mention his artstyle were perfect for marketing to children due to its "cartoon/chibi style" depiction which meant it was easier to bring it internationally with the manga and anime compared to something like Jojo by Hirohiko Araki due to its "adult" nature. Even Togashi who came few years later with yu yu hakusho was not as much marketable due to its dark nature of the show compared to the "fantasy/adventure" aspect of Dragon ball and it wasn't until DBZ it got a lot more matured/serious and could reach older audiences too. His work was made to reach a wide popularity in mind and took the advantage of good marketing that resulted in more people knowing about his work and allowed it to go on for so long.

what perspective?

@@ryana5435 there perspectives about Mangaka’s in general. They talked about a lot of them throughout Trash Taste despite how you may feel about certain Mangaka’s

@@brodaforlife yeah, very mature and humane take. Based boys. Twitter mobs should stop gatekeeping and blame others who want to pay tribute to the passing of Toriyama. Twitter users are mad at Conner’s tribute tweet and said “you don’t even like dragon ball” are very childish and dumb😂

​@ryana5435 yeah that was really dumb. I'll be up front and say that trash tastes takes on dragon ball arent very good, but just because they weren't super fans doesn't mean that they aren't allowed to mourn.

@@philswift8793 I totally agree with you. Non Dragon Ball fans should be allowed to mourn as well.

Yeah, like please dont check it, i am right 😂

Same. I wasn’t a Kobe fan, but he was still a major part of my generation. I knew a lot of kids who loved him. Even w/o knowing anything about basketball, I know him and his daughter. So, his death especially the surprise effected me even as a non-fan. Also with Miura. Berzerk was a huge series for my anime gen, too. I know I need to see the series.

@@Strat-o-casterYES!! Also when someone says fact check, I wish they’d just fact check it straight away in the episode. Poor Mudan has to do so much unnecessary work

Adding to this: THE FUCKING EGLINGTON LRT LINE! IT BEEN 13+ YEARS 😭

Timestamp

Damn I didn't know that

​@@nanashi7779 the art style gives it away. The hair specifically.

He didn’t directly work on Chrono Trigger. He just provided character designs.

@@Wieberleden810 It was a dream team of various Japanese devs

Character design is a big part of a game. He directly worked on it.​@@Wieberleden810

??

Huh?
