Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In a post shared on X, Dragon Ball Super's artist Toyotaro revealed Akira Toriyama's final contribution to the series before his passing, and it's a beautiful but sad coincidence that fans will never forget. Toriyama's last input for the manga inadvertently created the perfect goodbye for the legendary author.
As Toyotaro revealed in his first post of X after he expressed the pain and anguish for his master's death, Toriyama asked him to change the final panel of the chapter. In Toyotaro's original storyboard, Gohan, Goku, Pan, and Piccolo simply fly away after picking up the little girl at school. Toriyama, however, added a moment in which Piccolo says farewell to the teacher and, by extension, to the readers.
Toriyama Inadvertently Gave His Fans The Best Possible Farewell The Legendary Author's Final Touch on Dragon Ball Super Created a Last Goodbye Considering that Toriyama died from an acute subdural hematoma, and, at least as far as the public knows, had no previous health issues, it's very unlikely that Piccolo's farewell to the audience in chapter #103 was anything more than a coincidence.
Close Regardless of the intentions, the result is something that Dragon Ball fans will never forget. Piccolo turning to the reader to wave goodbye is the perfect farewell that Toriyama could give to his fans, even if he did not intend to do so. It's a simple, sober scene, and it transmits a bittersweet tone that will surely leave many people crying and smiling at the same time.
