Haiii - just wanted to ask, how many people have told you you’ve altered their religious beliefs? I’m debating being Christian bc of you (and some other influences like the fallout new Vegas man lmao)

I love "spirituality comes before religion" because yes. In a lot of ways, Christianity as a religion encourages a lot of dangerous mindsets. And that is very much not what God intended. My parents used to be more involved with a church in northern Maine where they were living at the time. My dad pastored there, and my mom told me stories about how being so involved with the church would often discourage her from Christianity. A lot of the things the people there would say and do made her so uncomfortable. At some point she just had to remind herself to "Look at God, not at them".

Make him worse.

“…you’ll wake back up and realize it’s not him that you’re in love with anymore; rather, you’re enamored with the tenderness of the memories you both share. Your coffee order, a lyric he always changed. These things all feel like love, but they aren’t him. Your coffee will taste just as good if you order it alone.”

To say Dragon Ball had a huge impact on me is an understatement. For a massive chunk of my life I was known for my love for the series. It inspired me to draw every since I first found it with DBZ Kai. Although I don't draw it as much nowadays, the series is a huge reason I am the artist I am today. I drew fan art of it everyday, and aspired to draw more like Toriyama for many years. Finding out about the passing of such an important figure of my developing years is heartbreaking.
