Congratulations to <i>Dragon Ball</i> on its 40th anniversary!! I feel nothing but the utmost gratitude to be included in this project. <i>Dragon Ball</i> has kind of been my source of nutrition ever since I was a kid. The cover of volume 7, which I like so much and had the privilege of being able to choose, has this sense of vigor and pop-ness, a stylish ride, and also a healthy dose of sexiness; that is to say, it has all the appeal of <i>Dragon Ball</i> crammed into this one picture. The fact that it looks extremely easy to draw is another of its strong points. I will forever be unable to look at it with anything other than admiration.
