Each month, Toyotarō provides a drawing of a Dragon Ball (or related…!) character — as well as an accompanying comment — on the official Japanese Dragon Ball website. Following up on the wealth of characters already drawn, for his August 2023 entry, Toyotarō has drawn Rao from Akira Toriyama’s Sand Land manga series (and new theatrical film):

Rao
A Human Sheriff

Rao, who takes responsibility for everything, is a pretty cool guy!! I especially liked the additional scenes penned by Toriyama-sensei that were not in the original comic!

If you manage to experience the movie in 4DX or MX4D, the tank scenes make you feel like you’re riding an actual tank! And in MX4D, it looks like you can smell the cactus and Thief’s hairspray!
