Every shonen that came after and even manga targeted at older demographic has him to thank. Probably the most influential figure in manga/anime reaching and being adopted by readers/audiences outside. Goku is beyond comparison in terms of popularity when it comes to manga characters. Truly a pioneer. R.I.P.

Kamehameha is the single most well-known attack name in all of fiction work.

Rest in Peace Akira. The show is so popular here, I remember my school library was able to get the manga books even though my school was very anti-manga due to how popular the series is. :heart2:

NO WAYYYY :dancehall3:

 

Omg DBZ is the most impactful anime of all time and my favorite one too. I grew up watching, reading and playing the video games. This sucks :dancehall3::dancehall3::dancehall3:

 

The voice actors from my country will definetly pay some kind of tribute to him. DBZ is HUGE here. May he rest in peace :heart2:

You really don't understand how current and influential Dragon Ball still is to this day in Latin America. 

Dragon Ball is like a religion in Latin America.

 

The last episodes of Dragon Ball Super were an EVENT. They showed the episodes on screens like a sports event. Clubs, bars, and stadiums were filled with people to watch them :deadbanana2:.
