>>38435524Aping means it is intentional imitation, I don't think Ken Sugimori intentionally stole Toriyama's style or even resembles it at all. The styles are vastly different and Compare how Toriyama draws children to Sugimori, the difference is night and day. People like to bring up the eyes a lot, but the 90s as a whole has a lot more sharper angular features that were present in shonen-oriented manga. Sugimori's art is a product of the times not a Toriyama rip=off.
