I'm not good at copying Toriyama's style, so I just stick to what I'd do differently when drawing Goku. So I guess it's more of a toony take on him with a more prominent nose and obligatory bedroom eyes. https://t.co/TwHdqFvGlF

Toriyama's Manga Theater. So glad this finally got an English release. Following Toriyama's shorts throughout a sizeable chunk of his career really lets you into his creative process and how that was tweaked over the years.

In fact, his hair is blue in some of Toriyama's illustrations. Also, Bulma's hair is purple in some arts too. It's certainly inconsistent. Toriyama is so forgetful, so it makes sense that he constantly changes the hair color of both.
