  • For people like me who hate visiting twitter.

    🔔Long Tweet] Oda’s message about Akira Toriyama paassing away. Oda: It is too early. The hole is too big. Sadness washes over me when I think that I will never see him again.

    I have admired him so much since I was a child, so I remember the day he called me by name for the first time. On the way home from the day you used the word “friend” for me and Kishimoto, I remember being overjoyed with Kishimoto. I also remember the last conversation we had.

    With respect and gratitude for the creative world he has left behind. I pray for his soulful rest in peace. May heaven be the joyous world he envisioned.
