Fans are worried about who will take over Akira Toriyama's place.
All Saiyans ranked from weakest to strongest?!
Akira Toriyama's passing has left a deep scar in the minds of fans. He was like a godfather in the anime and manga industry. The Dragon Ball franchise is his creation, and by 2024 the franchise is worth more than $23 billion. For the past four decades, he has given his heart and soul to the franchise. Even before his death, he was busy with the production of Dragon Ball DAIMA.
All was going well, but suddenly tragedy struck on March 1, 2024. While fans mourned, there has been an ongoing question of who will inherit the franchise and what the future holds for the franchise. The dispute has led to chaos in the industry. Several names have come up regarding inheritance, but there is no proper conclusion.
Late Akira Toriyama's passing was a sad event, but it left the potential goldmine without an owner. Since then, several names have surfaced who were close to the late Mangaka who could become the new owner. Many believe that Toyotarou is the one to inherit the franchise since Toriyama sensei chose him to continue the manga. Also, Toyotarou used to write a doujinshi called Dragon Ball AF. That may be one of the reasons why he was chosen as a protégé.
