QUOTES BY Akira Toriyama


It was very easy to convince me to take on the job of character designer for 'Dragon Quest.'

I'm not good at doing the same thing over and over again.

Designing characters for 'Dragon Quest' is fun but difficult work.

I'm personally not terribly interested in designing wholesome characters, so I don't have many variations to offer.

Since I'm a contrarian, I don't want to go along with what everyone else thinks.

I guess I like Piccolo the most after all. Out of all the enemies, Piccolo Daimao is the one I like most, and even after that, I like Piccolo the most.

I like Piccolo about the same as I like Goku.

With enemies, it's easier to just have them be straight-up bad guys so they can just get beaten up.

I'm not very good at depicting the characters' psychology on the page.
