Mr. Toriyama Draws Message For Quake Victims
Source: ANN
Manga creator Akira Toriyama (Dragon Ball , Dr. Slump) posted the above message of support for the victims of the March 11 earthquake (Tōhoku Chihō Taiheiyō-oki Jishin) and tsunami.
I can't read Japanese, so I don't know what it says. Maybe one of our versed forum members can help.

It says "Hang in there!!" in the word balloon.the_abberration wrote:I can't read Japanese, so I don't know what it says.
In the lower left:
"To everyone who's a victim,
It may be really bad, but please, don't you be defeated. Hang in there!
-Akira Toriyama"

So if one were to pronounce it, it is "Gambare yo" or something?jpdbzrulz4sure wrote:It says "Hang in there!!" in the word balloon.the_abberration wrote:I can't read Japanese, so I don't know what it says.
Like what Vegeta said to Kakarot in his monolouge about the differences between the two?

It's "ganbarē!!". Ordinarily, the word is "ganbare" (imperative form of "ganbaru"). The elongated "e" and small "tsu" kana at the end are for emphasis.dbgtFO wrote:So if one were to pronounce it, it is "Gambare yo" or something?

Toriyama just seems to generally be a good guy, and maybe that's why I like him and his work so much.

That is really considerate of Toriyama to draw that. It's so adorable.

Agreed, he seems very humble and I like that quality in famous people. This is a nice gesture.

Aw, this is really sweet.
Re: Mr. Toriyama Draws Message For Quake Victims
That's just awesome. It's such a great image with a positive message. I love it!
That looks great! I'm not too fond of the gray but I wanted to make this image a wallpaper too. Did you edit that yourself?Savage68 wrote:I really like this image. I'm using it as my current desktop background.

Re: Mr. Toriyama Draws Message For Quake Victims
Hahaha thanks for the effort, but anything associated with that site would be blocked too. Half the time I can't see images people post on these boards because they get the image from a site that's blocked on my computer. I would check it at home, but I recently moved to a new place so I have no internet. Thanks again for though!mysteriousdbzgt wrote:I'll just link you to the different colour wallpapers here, since you can't go to the Shonen Jump site:Drabaz wrote:Thanks.

Nice to see Toriyama giving his support to the victims of the earthquake. What a nice guy.
