We all know things like this are going to happen at some point - but even when we expect them they can still catch us off guard. I wasn't a huge DBZ fan by any stretch of the imagination but I'm confident in saying that without him, anime and manga would likely not be what it is today.

Rest in peace.

68 is so young. I wish his family the best. I also expect he had some written plans for incomplete series, but beyond that I wonder how respectful execs get or if they go full GT again.

Meanwhile Miyazaki who is almost completely senile at this point is still alive and kicking.

Now they disrespect the Toriyama legacy by releasing a bunch of what-if Dragon Ball.

We are now sure the Dragon Ball Super will also follow a new script from whoever.

20 years younger than Miyazaki

If Miyazaki made a series, it would have been longer than Oda's.

Toriyama entrusted the super manga to toyotaro with some supervision if I recall correctly so toyotaro continuing it only makes sense

Edit: I don't think it's official that toyotaro will continue after this hiatus but I think it's a sure bet that he'll at least have a huge part in new chapters

I guess I WILL settle for DragonBallZ GT as TRUE END. I will now accept as CANON the DragonBall DAIMA.

A hiatus is best considered as not definitely and end at all.

I guess a new version of HxH will release too if the author dies of too much back pain ( like his wife suplexing him to work ).
