Timeline without the Akira Toriyama

How different do you think the anime franchise would be if Akira Toriyama works never existed?

Worse, he blessed us with so much.

Chadgon Ball is the only good anime/manga franchise in existance. Shitper is fanfiction and doesn't count

Dragon Ball Z fights were kino.

if dragonball doesn't exist then yu yu hakusho wouldn't exist, literally all shounen would be erased from existence

An entirely different world. So many mangakas were inspired by him that it's impossible to say what that world would have looked like.

Then what would we stuck with?

Possibly Fist of the North Star and ultra-muscular and grim MCs continue to dominate for longer. Yu Yu Hakusho would probably take the place of the 'game changer' for Jump, but Togashi still burns out early. Yokai stuff might be more popular throughout the 90s.

Anime never becomes mainstream, and Japan never stops producing loli hentai. The best possible timeline.

We would have Joespics instead of DBZspics

Maybe DQ IP will have better art then

i am of the opinion that without dragon ball, saint seiya would have been fucking huge

whats wrong with akira toriyama art?

better, db was trash after the original

I'm guessing some of you have jobs.

how so, Kyle the third?

Didn't saint seiya get made first? We might have more of it

>Akira Toriyama
Isn't he known almost exclusively in murica? This seems to be one of those cases when, for some reason, the localizer manager chooses a random series, guided by his strange tastes, and as a result, in the absence of competition, it becomes a big thing in this country - there are many such cases in the 80s-90s.

No, DB is big in Japan too. Even DQ which is also big in Japan had art from the guy too.

>Isn't he known almost exclusively in murica?
What? No. You wouldn't believe how many nips were inspired by him. As a random example, the Spy X Family guy began his career by making DB doujins. and no, this doesn't necessarily mean hentai

>Isn't he known almost exclusively in murica?
Jesus Christ how the fuck can you say something this ignorant?

YYH is called 90s Saint Seiya in Japan
