Akira Toriyama Dead at 68
The official Dragon Ball website confirmed Akira Toriyama's death with a message that included the following:
Dear Friends and Partners,
We are deeply saddened to inform you that manga creator Akira Toriyama passed away on March 1st due to acute subdural hematoma. He was in age of 68.
It's our deep regret that he still had several works in the middle of creation with great enthusiasm. Also, he would have many more things to achieve. However, he had left many manga titles and works of art to this world. Thanks to the support of so many people around the world, he has been able to continue his creative activities for over 45 years. We hope that Akira Toriyama's unique world of creation continues to be loved by everyone for a long time to come.
We inform you of this sad news, with gratefulness for your kindness during his lifetime.
