Akira Toriyama has passed away at the age of 68

The Dragon Ball Official News page for this has been removed, but I'll update it if the article is reuploaded. Here's another news site with info and an X post with a screenshot of the original message.

You mean Chrono Cross? Chrono Trigger was already designed by Toriyama,

Side note, what’s gonna happen to Dragon Quest from now on??
