    Toriyama's journey to become a manga artist

    Posted: 20 Feb 2020 08:22 AM PST

    As a teen, Toriyama loved movies... he even tried to make a Kung-Fu film with a friend! Apart from that, he also loved to draw: so much his textbooks looked more like drafts.

    But he didn't want to be a manga artist or animator.

    Instead, he wanted to be a graphical designer, so when it came time to find a job, he chose an advertising agency, where he would draw flyers and posters: stuff like "New Years bargains! Super sales!".

    There was a problem: Toriyama hated it.

    He wouldn't get up on time, wouldn't follow the dress code, would get chewed out and lose bonuses... Three years after entering the company, Toriyama decided he wasn't made for this life, so he quit. Now Toriyama thought an easier job as illustrator would soon appear... after all, he was confident in his drawing skills!

    It didn't.

    Toriyama was living at his parents', and had to borrow money from his mom for everything, even to go out or buy cigarettes. His parents told him not to go out anymore: in that small Japanese town, a son being unemployed was embarrassing for the family.

    But Toriyama didn't obey. It was lazying around in a cafe that he read that Shonen Magazine was offering a prize for new manga artists, the equivalent of about $8 thousand today. He started drawing for this contest to get some money...

    Except he finished his entry too late for the contest.

    He couldn't wait for half a year without his smokes, so he sent his work to Weekly Shonen Jump's contest instead, which had a lesser prize but was more regular. Toriyama was confident...

    And he lost. Completely.

    Being left out even of the honor mentions messed with Toriyama's pride, so he redoubled his efforts, and drew another, more perfected comic.

    Of course, he lost again.

    But this time, after the results were published, he got a phone call. That was the youngest and most junior of WSJ's editors, Kazuhiko Torishima. He had found the story mediocre... but Toriyama's sound effects in Latin letters, the ones he had learned on his stint at the advertising agency, these he found cool! So Toriyama started sending new manga concepts to Torishima directly...

    And he got rejected. Again and again.

    On the next 3 years, Toriyama would draw 500 pages worth of concepts, and get rejected almost every time. His first work to get on WSJ was a two-shot called Wonder Island, about a kamikaze pilot who got stranded on a tropical isle.

    It flopped.

    WSJ always conducts a manga survey with their readers. And of all the millions of WSJ readers, Wonder Island had gotten only fourteen votes: dead last.

    Only one of Toriyama's attempts had any success with the readers: an one-shot called Gal Detective Tomato. So when Torishima got a story about a mad doctor, he asked Toriyama to make the robot girl the doctor had built the main character: after all, it seemed Toriyama's girls were more popular than his guys.

    Toriyama accepted the advice, but stubbornly kept the original name of the manga: Dr. Slump.

    This proved to be an instant success, and two years later, at 27 years old, the unemployed guy who didn't have money to pay for cigarettes and coffee was Japan's most successful manga artist.

    Is Super Shenron more powerful than the Grand Zeno?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2020 12:54 PM PST

    It seems that super Shenron exists in a way that is somehow beyond the universe. I assume he exists in the 7th universe so he's somehow beyond that universe maybe? But could there be a dragon whose balls are lile universe balls and it exists beyond all universes somehow?

    Confession time

    Posted: 20 Feb 2020 03:56 PM PST

    I've never seen the original Dragon Ball anime.

    I own and have read all the manga from the OG series all the way through to all of Super that's been released.

    I own all of Z, Kai, and GT. I've seen all of Super.

    I haven't seen a single Dragon Ball episode.

    I feel ashamed.

    Can someone please tell me what the last episode was in DBZ Kai that Yamamoto scored?

    Posted: 20 Feb 2020 06:43 PM PST

    I'd like to watch Kai again but I like Yamamotos music a lot more so I want to watch as many episodes with his music as I can. Thanks all.

    Hey wait a minute

    If cell said the games would follow tournament rules (with the exception of cell deciding that ring-outs don't count) then Gohan killing cell would disqualify Gohan.

    Am I forgetting something or does that make Mr Satan the actual legit winner of the Cell Games?

    Or am I the only one who just always assumed that that counted as one of his lies?
