Not even in my dreams did I ever think I would get to participate in a project like this! What an honor.

Even I, who didn’t read a lot of manga back in primary school, remember copying drawings of the Kamehameha in my notebook. After becoming a mangaka, I went to exhibitions of Toriyama-sensei‘s artwork, and even already as an adult, I still got really excited by each and every page of his illustrations. I remember being really moved. Congratulations to Dragon Ball on its 40th anniversary!
