He was born in Japan and started his career as a manga artist and character designer. Akira faced lots of rejections early on in his career but he kept on going with his passion to create something out of the world.

Akira finally got rewarded for his hard work and his manga series Dr. Slump became a hit and was later created as an anime series.

Akira’s major success came with the popular series Dragon Ball Z which went on to become one of the most popular manga/anime series of all time and it gained even more popularity in Western countries.

The popularity of Dragon Ball Z was the sole reason for the anime’s growth outside of Japan. After the success of DBZ, Toriyama went on to create several other successful series and DBZ kept on growing for more than 15 years. Akira also designed characters for XBOX 360 and worked with 20th Century Fox.
