Yay, now we only have to fix the rest of the big list of "to do" things.

Also, i hope that Toriyama gets better. We gotta use the dragon balls.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Never heard of Cedric Biscay before but by doing a little research it seems he should have the necessary connections to get such information. This makes it possible that it's true. Wish it wasn't though... This saddens me greatly. :(

That's new to me, people who reach 50 or even younger should stop and he's 60.

A lot of people that age and even older smoke so it wouldn't surprise me.

It could be the only way for him to deal with Super's production. :lol:

He did said he smoke up to about 3 packs of cigarette a day in the Dragon Ball: Adventure Special interview (in the Akira Toriyama Corner section). The stuff with the tobacco is from 1985 Weekly Jump where he said he was told to cut it down I think. However, those interviews happened two decades ago so I don't know if he still do these days. There's probably another interview I can't recall though, but I'm not sure.

In any case, I really hope its nothing too serious and everything's fine—assuming the source of this is legit.

Best wishes for Toriyama.

And that reminds me... If Toriyama needs to retire, shouldn't that "Dragon Ball Room" be active and take lead of this new saga and stuff beyond?

Such information should always be taking with a grain of salt. Especially a source from a source.
