Recently, this legendary author was awarded the title of "Literary Knight Medal" by the French government to honor his contributions to contemporary culture.
The Dragon Ball series or 7 dragon balls must have been no stranger to the 8x, 9x old ages. This is a comic series with fresh, vivid and important features with extremely powerful "characters". It brought a great childhood to comic fans.
Not only famous in Japan as well as Asian readers, Akira Toriyama's series also resonates in Western countries. Until now, whenever referring to comic books, Westerners will think of Dragon Ball with characters like Son Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, etc.

In France, even Dragon Ball became one of the contemporary cultural symbols. The manga is extremely popular in France and becomes one of the most popular comic books in the country of the continent. Even products like games, picture books or souvenirs related to 7 dragon balls are also sold very well in this country.

With the success of 7 dragon balls, the author Akira Toriyama was exhausted by France. Most recently, the French government awarded him the title "French Literature Knight Medal" at the French embassy in Japan on May 30 last.

It is known that this is a title for outstanding individuals in the fields of arts and literature. Before the Dragon Ball author, four other authors also received this special title. Including Katsuhiro Otomo - Akira manga author, Jiro Taniguchi - manga author The Summit of the Gods, Leiji Matsumoto - author of Galaxy Express 999 and Isao Takahata - director of the Tomb of the Fireflies.
Unfortunately, Toriyama artists were not present at this ceremony. His representative came to receive the title of household. However, he was also present in the short video to thank the government and the French people. And receiving the Order of Knights was a great honor for him in France.
