This is a complete list of all animated adaptations of works originally created by Akira Toriyama. The list is broken into four segments/types:

Direct Adaptations: These animated works range from "mostly" to "fully" based on the original manga work and remain faithful to its original story, but may include character design adjustments and additional material (be it traditional "filler" or simply padding for runtime).
Sequel Adaptations: These animated works are original to the medium, and do not have a prior Toriyama-penned original version. Toriyama's involvement in them may range from a casual blessing to full oversight and personal involvement.
Reboot Adaptations: These animated works are based on a franchise originally created by Akira Toriyama, but may not be directly based on that actual original work, and instead serve as their own, separate, new productions.
Based on Character Designs: These animated works had little-to-no direct involvement from Akira Toriyama, and largely are not even based on works created by Toriyama himself; instead, they are based on works he contributed character designs to (generally video games).
