If you have this picture, can you please share? High quality is preferable.Q: Finally, out of ten years of DragonBall, which picture are you the most pleased with?
A: The one where Goku and Gohan are riding a thing that looks like a Harley with legs (page 88 � 140). This is the only one that you could say I'm pleased with.

Gotta love Oda's enthusiasm and Toriyama's "Huh? Did I dio that?"Q: Of all your illustrations that you can remember, what do you think were your favorites?
Toriyama: My favorite piece of artwork?
Oda: I know. Toriyama-sensei probably doesn't remember... but I remember seeing a comment of his on that.
Toriyama: Really?
Oda: You mentioned something of the sort in some interview.
Toriyama: This one? (points at the illustration)
Oda: Absolutely. (laugh) You said that it was the only one you liked.... I was thinking, "Well what about all the others?"
Toriyama: That's right, yeah, yeah, I said it, I did say that this was my favorite! But actually, looking at it now, I wonder why I chose this one.
Oda: (Laugh)
Toriyama: Maybe I liked it because the green-yellow in the background was so pretty?
Oda: Well in your comments from back then, you said that you really liked the overall balance of the mecha.
Toriyama: I guess I had thought at the time that it went together really well?
Oda: If the actual artist doesn't know, nobody knows. (laugh)
Haha exactly, that whole interview and those two together discussing is just awesome.Michsi wrote:Here is the interview : http://library.thinkquest.org/07aug/020 ... about.html

That's my Toriyama. That was the exact same though I had when he mentioned the picture.Michsi wrote:And years later, in his interview with Oda, he wonders why he prefered this one
Well, of course I didn't mean that Toriyama was literally as naive and socially unaware as Goku, but you can certainly see the similarities in Goku's personality and Toriyama's forgetfulness of things pertaining to the franchise/story/art and how nice of a guy he is in general.Ahiru77 wrote:^ Yeah, but Toriyama must be atleast 50 times smarter than Goku.

The clothes do look similar...except Goku's shirt doesn't read "Postboy".Michsi wrote:Hei ,I just noticed something. Isn't Goku's outfit what Piccolo is wearing during the Driving episode, cap and all..

That interview with Oda-san makes it pretty clear that really isn't the case. Toriyama-san cracks me up. He seems so scatter brained.Piccolo Daimao wrote:I can't believe that's the only picture Toriyama is pleased with.
I thought Toriyama was just saying that he forgot he said that and wondered why that picture was his favourite.CODii wrote:That interview with Oda-san makes it pretty clear that really isn't the case.

His favourite... at the time. Like he mentions in that same interview, his art and preferences are constanly evolving and changing.Piccolo Daimao wrote:I thought Toriyama was just saying that he forgot he said that and wondered why that picture was his favourite.CODii wrote:That interview with Oda-san makes it pretty clear that really isn't the case.
