For years, “fake news” hasn’t been a novelty on the internet, and the problem is that many people have “developed” attention spans that don’t allow them to see past gigantic headlines. with 4 second readings. This, ultimately, eventually leads many lies to become false truths. Precisely, something that set social media on fire in the last hours, especially those of the community of “dragonballis that Akira Toriyama is a racist (Spoiler: he’s not).

The Fake That Calls Dragon Ball Author Akira Toriyama A Racist

What the hell am I talking about? GOOD all refer to the following picture:

And for those who have doubts with English, I will comment on the following things:

  • At first it should be clear that everything that reflects the picture is completely wrong. There is absolutely nothing real or certain; the interview to which the image refers does not exist either.
  • Basically this picture he invents the following words from Akira Toriyama:
    • It is a Japanese franchise. It is made by the Japanese for the Japanese people. It’s not your show. is ours‘.
    • The things people complain about change over time, but Japan’s demographics don’t. They (black people) just don’t live here‘.
  • I can understand someone doing this for the purpose of creating dark humor, which never feels bad to me if you know how to execute it, but The problem with creating and sharing something on the internet is what I say: a lot of people will see it and believe it to be real.. Although it might be something completely absurd, all you have to do is create it and spread it on the Internet for there to be someone who eats it with potatoes and repeats it.

I don’t think there is much more to say on this subject. I just hope the image in question doesn’t spread far enough to create a real bad reputation for Akira Toriyama.. Ultimately, “Dragon Ball” is a franchise that has always relied on many different races and species to create its characters, so I hope this “joke” doesn’t end up causing trouble for Toriyama-sensei.
