I’m so good at this

I’ll break this one.

The Cadets have folded.

They have filed for bankruptcy and cease all operations.

I knew this was coming, thought I made peace with it, but can’t help but sob, this is absolutely crushing and heartbreaking for me.

Also while I’m here, the language in the Cadets’ statements absolutely diabolical. Same victim-blaming agenda they’ve been running since the 80’s.

The Alumni, Current Members, most Staff, and fellow fans, my hearts go out to you all but the Board of Directors can go fuck themselves!!!! Thankfully they won’t be about to hurt anyone anymore.

It was late summer 1999 when my brothers and I caught a late afternoon block on Cartoon Network, and it had Dragon Ball Z playing. We were instantly hooked. Even in the hopes of watching more of it later on that day, we stumbled upon more anime (adult swim) but still made sure to watch it every afternoon from the Namek Saga to the Buu Saga. Dragon Ball Z & Dragon Ball weren't merely TV shows we watched; they were some of the first things my brothers and I witnessed that allowed our creativity to flourish. We would spend afternoons trying to recreate Dragon Ball Z characters and show them off to our elementary school classmates the next day, receiving high praise for our young talents. I myself now understand that I was tapping into my early musical talents by being able to hum the Dragon Ball Z theme and ending by memory and with perfect pitch involved. Our love and passion for our collective art and admiration for the show continued on well into today, with me keeping up with the latest manga chapters and video game releases. Needless to say, I've been a Dragon Ball/Z/Super fan my entire life.

But Dragon Ball also served as an entryway into my love for Dragon Quest, another creative subsidiary from Toriyama (the creator of Dragon Ball). "Dragon Quest Fanfare" is a VERY important music composition to me. It exemplified bravery, courageousness, and it felt like I was hearing the embodiment of rightness in the world. I first played Dragon Quest when I was in the 10th Grade, and hearing that opening fanfare really shifted something in me, which was me embracing my love for music and composition, which would go onto being my life's passion and a part of my life's purpose.

Akira Toriyama, the creator of The Dragon Ball Manga & Anime, and a designer for the Dragon Quest series, passed away on March 1st, and we were made aware of his passing several minutes ago. To say that my heart is breaking is an understatement. Life for me so far hasn't been easy, but those times during my youth watching Dragon Ball and playing DQ for the first time, happen to hold my most precious memories. Memories during a time where every day felt good and peaceful. I can say I'm sad because endings are particularly hard for me, but I want to hope the enjoyment I'll have with the Dragon Ball Manga, Video Games, & Anime, as well as the Dragon Quest Games & Soundtracks, will be a continuation of his life and legacy. I hope he loved his life to the fullest, and I don't know if I can thank him enough for the impact he has had on my life, but I'll thank him as often as I can remember for it.

Rest well, Toriyama-San
