About the author

Akira Toriyama (鳥山明) was a Japanese manga artist and character designer. He first achieved mainstream recognition for creating the popular manga series Dr. Slump, before going on to create Dragon Ball (his most famous work) and acting as a character designer for several popular video games such as the Dragon Quest series, Chrono Trigger, and Blue Dragon. Toriyama came to be regarded as one of the most important authors in the history of manga with his works highly influential and popular, particularly Dragon Ball, which many manga artists cite as a source of inspiration.
He earned the 1981 Shogakukan Manga Award for best shōnen/shōjo manga with Dr. Slump, and it went on to sell over 35 million copies in Japan. It was adapted into a successful anime series, with a second anime created in 1997, 13 years after the manga ended.
His next series, Dragon Ball, would become one of the most popular and successful manga in the world. Having sold 260 million copies worldwide, it is one of the best-selling manga series of all time and is considered a key work in increasing manga circulation to its peak in the mid-1980s and mid-1990s. Overseas, Dragon Ball's anime adaptations have been more successful than the manga and are credited with boosting anime's popularity in the Western world. In 2019, Toriyama was decorated a Chevalier of the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for his contributions to the arts.
In October 2024, Toriyama was inducted into the Harvey Awards Hall of Fame.

And then there were none… at least for a while until they decide if they can even continue without toriyama may he rest in peace. Truly though if this happens to be a side ending to the series I felt like it really gave enough progression and made it to a point where maybe everything isn’t fully buttoned up like black frieza but if we’re being honest the series could in theory go on for entirety, so with that in mind I’m blessed and eternally grateful for all he’s blessed us for for these last few amazing decades because I can firmly say he was one who molded and shaped my childhood and one of the reasons I even explore and enjoy manga today. A lovely cap to a series made by an impassioned and incredible man. 4.5/5

Tears of joy...
Akira Toriyama finishes Dragon Ball Super the way it should be finished: all Saiyans, battling each others, full respect across the board. I couldn't be happier with its end.
Dragon Ball OG/Z/Kai/GT/Super, whichever of these you gravitate towards, you will end up reading/watching one of the greatest shonen to ever be.
Enjoy!

Strong recommend.

Besides the final chapter being a prequel to Goten & Trunks super heroics, I think this is a perfect volume. I’m not sure if Toyatoro wrote this after Toriyama died or if it’s just coincidence, but this had a level of sentimentality and pondering about the future that I think this could work as a de facto finale (Goku sparring w/Gohan to make sure he can protect earth when he’s gone. Whis & Beerus discussing the next God of Destruction) and the 3 chapter story ends on a nice, family centric, emotional sentiment.

Dragon Ball Super Vol. 24: A Legacy Toward the Future is a bittersweet but uplifting read. After powering through Volumes 1–23 last year, the long wait for Chapter 104 almost made me forget about this release, but it was absolutely worth it.

The most memorable moments from this volume come from chapters 103 and 104. Chapter 103 closes with Piccolo’s knowing wave, a moment many fans have taken as Toriyama’s final farewell, and I choose to believe that too. This volume earns its title, carrying a spirit of optimism. Even though we in the real world know that Toriyama is gone, the story feels alive with possibility.

Chapter 104 in particular honors the legacy of the past while setting the stage for what’s to come. It left me both nostalgic and excited, and I can’t wait to see where Super goes from here - hopefully sooner rather than later.

Le tome est TRES bon. Je suis surpris à quel point je l'ai dévoré!

Ceci dit, le dernier chapitre laisse à désirer... j'en ai un peu marre des super-héros dans Dragon Ball... ^^'

[Lashaan Balasingam · Rating 3 out of 5]

It needed a final issue to complete this volume, but it clearly just forces an ending with an origin story to wrap-up an uninteresting Saiyaman story arc. Hopefully, this will be the last of this series by the legendary Akira Toriyama.

Rest in peace.
