“I don’t think I would have taken the job”: Akira Toriyama Would Have Never Signed Up for Dragon Quest Had He Known it’s Fate

Legendary mangaka Akira Toriyama was not only the creator of series like Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball, but he had also ventured into the world of video games. Toriyama had worked on multiple games, like Chrono Tiger and Blue Dragon. But his biggest achievement in the gaming world was his character designs for the popular role-playing game Dragon Quest.

While Toriyama earned a lot of recognition with Dragon Quest, he was not particularly a fan of his works in the series. In 2017, when Dragon Quest celebrated its 30th anniversary, Toriyama shared a special letter where he claimed that he would have never agreed to work on the video game if he had known that it would have gone for so long.
The manga creator also gave a reason why he was not interested in working on Dragon Quest anymore and would rather have someone else take his job and design the characters.
