@@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.

As a latino, Dragon Ball has basically become part of our culture here, its huge, the only i could put it in perspective is Dragon Ball is what Star wars is to the USA but times 100. feels like the whole latino community is in mourning. Hundreds of homages were made and are being made for him. Dragon Ball helped me made friends, bring my family closer together, inspire me to work out, to never give up. As some one put it. Today it is not the man you created who cries, but the child you helped grow. Dear Akira Toriyama, thank you for everything

[@huntergill4945]

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

[@kiwiboy1999]

​@@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

[@ulises4241]

@@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."

[@orbboom6119]

​@@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.

Toriyama was a natural innovator. Not only to shonen. But to the video game world, art world, and the cartooning world. He is literally the reason chibi designs exist. He is the reason faces are drawn on 💩. He is the reason the most well-known video game character exists (Mario) from his creation arale. Sonic, street fighter and SO MUCH MORE wouldn’t be the same without him. There’s too much to say. He’s one of the few creators where you can’t tell where his influence stops.

[@soyakat]

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.

I have seen twitter collectively come together in mourning twice so far: when Akira Toriyama died and when Kobe Bryant died. Kobe's death was massively impactful across the entire world of sports, and the suddenness of it as well as the tragedy of the others that died with him made it such a shocking event that it shook the entirety of social media. Toriyama's passing was sad, but it was also kind of comforting because of just how much people talked about his legacy and how his art had affected their lives personally, and everybody had a little story to contribute. Both experiences were very profound. It makes me thankful that despite all of the negativity and problems social media causes that on occasion it is very nice that people have such an accessible platform to come together on collectively to talk about something. On occasion, social media is a great thing for the world to have.

At 1:31:30 - Joey talking about how awful public transport in Sydney is inaccurate, understandable as he hasn't lived in Sydney for many years. There have been projects which has improved the situation over the years, such as the Sydney Metro, which makes trips much quicker and the Sydney Light Rail, which is nice because the CBD is more pedestrianized now, less car traffic. The main issue is infrastructure keeping up with population growth, entirely fueled by immigration. Also for context, where Joey lived was in Manly, the Northern Beaches region, a much richer and whiter part of Sydney that is secluded from the rest of Sydney and him growing up there skewed his perspective on how bad public transport is in Sydney.

[@WieldMyWord]

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.

Akita Toriyama is like The Beetles of the animation and comic world. Without him so many shows, manga, comics and movies wouldn’t have come to be. Dragon Ball really changed the trajectory of animation and storytelling in the medium for both the East and West.

[@WieldMyWord]

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.

Toriyama was a genius so by the time he was doing DB chapters within 2 days weekly, he still got tired partly because he didn't want to do Dragon Ball originally but also because he was tired doing Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball for 15 years. That said many mangaka are heavy smokers including Toriyama, so that does have an effect on their lifespan. Although Toriyama's cause of death was kinda strange.

Fujimoto slander right here! The message of *"Just Listen to the Song"* isn't "it's not that deep." The conflict in that story is that a teen made a love song and everyone but the person it was meant for interpreted meaning behind it. Everyone kept finding all sorts of hidden messages/imagery that wasn't there intentionally, but it was. None of that mattered to our boy though, because his intended message wasn't being received. So he tries again with a follow-up, and dissapoints the audience he'd garnered. There's a meta narrative going on here with how soon after Chainsaw Man Part 2 started.

I've watched every episode of this podcast and I've only just noticed that the theme is constantly playing in the background and it has been, in every episode.

[@amlannanda4023]

1:40 lol Joey becoming his chad dad. Why he wearing the 7 eleven drip though

[@PorkShark]

The last movie whose plot twist shocked me was Infinity War. Never expected the good guys would lose.

[@pikalad]

Literally visiting my family in El Salvador and I was shocked to not only hear the boys mention my heritage, but also that we paid tribute to Dragon Ball. Que descanses en paz Sr. Toriyama. ❤️🇸🇻

[@jamieryan_mass]

It's funny that the world knows of Dragon balls popularity on Latin America. But people forget that France is the 2nd market for manga. It is absolutely huge here and has been since the 80s. Still in awe how Toriyama-sama made such a huge impact worldwide.

Once again, Connor BS’s his way through the Dune debate and demands that he’s right. Gigguk was right all along

[@KillerTacos54]

@@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

[@grey_f98]

Connor being confidently wrong about Dune having 3 parts, and Joey pretending to know and agreeing with him simply because he sounds sure of himself is the most Connor and Joey thing in this podcast.

[@nolbleh7381]

connor going "no, im right." lmao

[@moistsquish]

Litterally screamed when joey did that

[@Animosit7]

As a dragon ball fan, I couldn't even express in words or actions how toriyama-san's death affected me the day i found out; I just hope, and am confident that toyotaro will continue to ingnite the flames of toriyama-san's legacy. RIP Legend 🕊

[@paradisecityX0]

Fun fact: Toriyama also worked on Chrono Trigger

[@nanashi7779]

Damn I didn't know that

[@akashthapa5445]

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

I cried in the bathroom at work. I didn't expect it to hit me so hard. Rest in power to the Goat

[@tomasfong40]

Everything Toriyama touched was iconic in its own right. He took over gag comedy with Dr Slump, took over battle shonen with Dragon ball. And he also decided to make some of the most iconic designs for some of the most iconic video games with Dragon quest and Chrono Trigger. This man's influence cannot be understated. RIP to the GOAT

[@ChibsterofNurgy]

Bruh, I totally missed that plot wise in Your Name, like I don't even remember that being a thing. Best most recent plot twist for me, "Raizo is safe". Perfect definition of a plot twist. Protagonists have an understanding of the world, they've been given credible knowledge about a given situation, heard a tragic backstory, helped the injured and therefore have no reason to disbelieve them. They thought they were going to have to fight when Kinnemon and the others were stepping up. Essentially, our and the protags' understanding of the world was tipped on its head and it wasn't a rug pull, it wasn't out of nowhere. It was a beautiful moment that turned us all into pog champs.

[@NightsIntoDreams777]

Toriyama was so important to so many people that when those shitheads who wanted a bit of clout started to shit on Toriyama Those fuckers got OBLITERATED by everyone

[@bluelfsuma]

I like how, in the thumbnail, it looks like they're annoyed at his death. The boys to the Grim Reaper after he takes away Toriyama: "Now that's cringe, bro."

[@musicskyg4653]

I wasn’t really ever a big fan of dragon ball but after toriyama’s passing I’ve been getting into it more and it’s beautiful to see his influence on media

[@starades0148]

RIP Akira Toriyama just the sheer realization that he's no more in this world just left a hole in my heart that the man who was my childhood is no longer in this world. I just felt immense sadness and broke down. He'll always be remembered as a hero that shaped all of our childhoods.

Only 3 weeks late boys, on time as usual.

[@scott7224]

Sometimes people underestimate how big Dragon ball actually is in latin america, I literally saw multiple people just straight up crying on the streets. Dragon ball could literally be classified as a religion over here, not even kidding.

[@cloudsRniceC0M3]

putting mu hands up spirit bomb style for the GOAT

[@gian8389]

I don't think we need to be dragon ball fans to understand the impact that Akira Toriyama left with in the anime community and more, so respect to the author, as they say: "legends never die"
