It's a Fake Nerd Special - A Tribute to Akira Toriyama!
The incredible mangaka and character/model designer, Akira Toriyama, has sadly passed away. In light of this news, there was a desire to come together and share just how much the works of this incredible man meant to us. Fake Nerds Brandon T. McClure, Sparkz Witty, and Ben Magnet gather with their special guest, Phai Giron, to share when Toriyama's work changed their lives and what it's meant to them. There are stories of first encounters with Dragon Ball, expressions of gratitude for his contributions to ourselves, along with praise for the impact of all his creations on the global scale. Whether Dragon Ball, Chrono Trigger, Dr. Slump, or another work; Akira Toriyama has left a deep and unforgettable impact on all of us. This was a way for us to share in our love for his art and say a big thank you for everything he gave us.
"Tackle life with as much energy as Goku! I'll try to do the same!" - Akira Toriyama
