Akira Toriyama passed away on March 1, 2024 due to acute subdura hemorrhage. The Japanese media speculated that his death was caused by a severe trauma to the brain. He had undergone brain tumor surgery in February 2024. He smoked as many as 100 cigarettes a day when he was rushing for his manuscript. He was a heavy addict and smoked two or three packs of cigarettes a day. The acute subdura hematoma mostly occurred on the basis of brain contusion. It was the most common cerebral hemorrhage in traumatic brain injury, especially in extremely acute cases. The mortality rate was as high as 50% - 80%.

There were many characters in Akira Toriyama's first Dragon Ball. The following were some of the main characters: - [Wukong: A Saiyan from Planet Vegeta. He was sent to Earth as a "low-level warrior" when he was young. He was adopted by Sun Wufan and named "Sun Wukong."] He embarked on an adventurous journey to collect dragon balls and constantly fought against powerful enemies. After cultivating, his strength continued to increase. For example, after drinking the super divine water, his strength increased greatly. He gradually grew up in the battle with Demon King Bick and the others. - ** Demon King Bick **: The dark side of the immortal. He ruled the world twice and was very powerful. His full-power attack had the power of a nuclear bomb. His strength was comparable to Goku's after drinking the super magical water. The Bick (Flute Demon Child) left behind after his death also played an important role in the follow-up story. - [Immortal: He created the Dragon Pearl on Earth. In order to become a Heavenly God on Earth, he forced out the evil part of his body to become the Great Demon King Bick. He is relatively powerful. He can flick away Little Goku, who defeated the Great Demon King Bick, with one finger. He can also revive the Divine Dragon with a divine light.] - [Mr. Bobo: The oldest person on Earth. He has served several generations of deities. He can easily defeat Goku, who defeated Old Peeker. He can also take on Gotsu and Trakus, who have transformed into Super Saiyans.] - [Tianjin Rice]: A mixed-blood descendant of a Three-Eyed Human and an Earthling. He has three eyes and can see the fastest movement, the evil energy of the demon race, and the Afterimage Fist. He is the inventor of many moves, such as the Sun Fist and the New Qi Cannon. He has received guidance from Tao Baibai and Immortal Crane, and has extraordinary strength. - [Cat Immortal: Non-combatant, but Wukong wanted to learn martial arts from Demon King Bick the first time after he was defeated. It can be seen that Wukong's strength is above Turtle Hermit and the others.] - ** Turtle Hermit **: He was an early martial arts enlighterer of Goku. Although his strength was gradually surpassed as the story developed, he was once a relatively powerful martial artist. - [Aquilobe: The benefactor of Wukong's life. In the early stages of the Bick Demon King chapter, he was able to fight Wukong on par.] - [** Big Drum **: The third demon born from the Great Demon King Bick. As he was born from the recovered youth of Bick, his strength was stronger than his two brothers. He could easily defeat Tien Jin Fan who had 180+ combat power. However, he was kicked to death by Goku who had 260 combat power.]

Akira Toriyama had a positive attitude towards China culture and had a deep learning attitude. His work Dragon Ball was based on the famous China novel Journey to the West, which borrowed elements such as Sun Wukong, Golden Cudgel, Somersault Cloud, etc. The images of Xiao Lin, Wu Long, and Tianjin Rice also borrowed from Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Erlang God Yang Jian. In addition, Akira Toriyama was deeply influenced by China martial arts culture. He had a deep understanding and memory of Drunken Fist, which was starred by Chan, and incorporated China martial arts elements into the battle scenes and skill design of Dragon Ball. After his trip to China in 1984, he integrated his experiences in Beijing, Shanghai, Guilin, and other places into his comics, making the first few episodes of Dragon Ball have a strong Chinese rural style. This shows that he has a strong interest in Chinese culture and actively integrated Chinese elements into his own creation. From this, it can be inferred that he holds a positive and friendly attitude towards China.

Among the known Dragon Ball series, Akira Toriyama created Dragon Ball (1984 - 1995), Dragon Ball SD (December 2010), Galaxy Patrol to Earth (June 2014), Galaxy Patrol Gack (December 2014), and his posthumous work Dragon Ball Daima (to be aired in October 2024). There was no information that indicated that there was a Dragon Ball that was not created by Akira Toriyama, so there was no accurate answer.

The manga series of Dragon Ball (also known as Dragon Ball Seven), including its derivative work Dragon Ball SD, the posthumous work Dragon Ball Daima, as well as the story setting and character creation in the manga, were all written by Akira Toriyama. In addition, Akira Toriyama also created works related to Dragon Ball, such as Galaxy Patrol Officer to Earth and Galaxy Patrol Officer Jak. The fighting adventure stories, the growth of the characters, the unique worldview settings (such as the Dragon Ball summoning the dragon to fulfill wishes, the death and resurrection mechanism, etc.), and the imaginative plots in these works were all the embodiment of Toriyama's creative talent.
