Link please. I'm not believing anything Kishimoto related from a DBZ wanker. Lol Also Chichi>your favorite.
Akira Toriyama's most famous creation, Dragonball became an anime and for Kishimoto this spawned a whole new interest in Manga and Shonen Jump. Near the end of Elementary school, Masashi Kishimoto was strictly a Dragonball fan, he recalls how he was so obsessed with Akira Toriyama, "He was like a god to me, I was constantly drawing characters that appear in Dragonball." At this stage in his life Kishimoto did not recieve an allowance to buy the 190 Yen Jumps, and would have to rely on a friend to show him jump to get his Dragonball fix. It was at this stage in his life that Masashi Kishimoto made a decision that he is not regretting now, and many of his fans are thankful for. He started to think to himself that "Manga sure is great" and that he wanted to become a famous Mangaka like Akira Toriyama. Kishimoto created his first manga around this time entitled "Hiatari-kun", a story revolving around a "Shadow ninja boy".Still in elementary school, Kishimoto was still obsessed with Akira Toriyama and would spend all of his extra time making his drawings look exactly like his idols. It was then that he saw a game that Akira Toriyama helped develop called "Dragon Quest". The drawings were amazing, but unfortunately for Masashi Kishimoto he did not own a Famicon (Nintendo), which every other kid in his class seemed to own. He certainly could not ask his parents for something of this nature, everytime his father heard the word "Video Game" he would tell Kishimoto to go study. It was then that his twin brother devised a plan to get a Famicon from someone else, but could someone willing to give away something worth 10,000 Yen possibly exist, he did and Masashi Kishimoto began to view this friend as a god.*After he learned of "Akira", Masashi Kishimoto's drawings changed in a big way. He spent hours studying and trying to understand.Today everything has worked out for Masashi Kishimoto, his dreams of becoming a famous Jump mangaka have come true, his story about that shadow ninja boy, Naruto has become one of the best selling and most popular mangas worldwide. He has certainly shown that he can draw with the best of them, and despite all the adversities, he has succeeded. Masashi Kishimoto is a true inspiration, a true role model, and will go down in history as one of the best and this would have not happened if it wasn't for Akira Toriyama.*

Nevermind the fact Kishimoto was probably 10 at the time.

Plus you're also forgetting Oda and Kubo.
You just fail to realise how big of fan Kishi is of Dragon Ball. The proof is in the pudding kid as Naruto is clearly a copy of DBZ.

Oda and Kubo bow down to Akira as well. They were influenced by Toriyama.

Kid? Lol

Jimmies=rustled.

And DBZ is a copy of Journey to the West AND Astro Boy.

So using your logic: Old chinese mythology>Dbz.

Trying to change the subject much ?
You didn't believe and so he showed you proof and now you reply with oh we was just 10.
Well how many 10 year olds do you know that are so devoted to their idol they they actually go through with it their dreams ?
He drew everyday to make sure his pics looked like his and today they really do resemble his work,but not in a corny way.
His devotion has spawned naruto which you obviously like and whether you admit or not Akira is somewhat responsible.

Don't be hatin.

I'm not hating, I love DBZ, but 3 authors are obviously better than one.

Many inspirations from journey to the west found its way in to dbz as it did to a thousand other things since its so highly regarded and old.You might as well say just say that about every anime or movie in Japan.


Stop coming up with piss poor excuses to win this imaginary battle your having its pathetic.
