>>94565410But anon, are you forgetting about Suppaman, a reoccurring character in Toriyama's first manga, a gag based one by the name of Dr. Slump?
Are you also forgetting the many minor background appearances by famous movie icons like Tarzan, movie monsters such as Frankenstein, Godzilla or even Dracula, and even superheroes like Spider Man?
Are you forgetting Toriyama's massive love of the Alien Series, Aliens being as I said earlier, reoccurring background characters in Dr. Slump, and even one of Freiza's 4 forms being an homage to their design?
That's not even going into the fact that I said Goku's origin story was similar to Superman, in a child is sent from his exploding home planet to a new one and raised and thought the ways of the people of Earth.
I never once said that the entire story of Dragonball is western in origin. and for that, my dear anon, is why I demand you commit Harry Carrie in attempt to regain what honor you lost in trying to shame me.
