Last link doesn't work, but I certainly did like the Kishimoto-style DBZ characters. I wasn't too fond of the original animator's style. Kishimoto makes it almost bearable.

Not bad at all.
In fact, Bulma is easily an improvement on the original.

Wow! It was really interesting to see different mangaka's renderings of DBZ characters. And what a great way to pay tribute to Akira Toriyama!
What a great find! Thanks for sharing the links, ~Uchiha Itachi~. *reps!*
Yeah, they do look great and they do look a little similar to Akira's but I like Akira's version better.

Favorite one by Yashihiro Kano
And Oda's does look just like Luffy
Akira Toriyama is probably the greatest influential Japanese manga author in the last twenty years due to the sheer amount of influence his mangas have left on others.

awesome find! I found Kishi's style of the DBZ characters, but never seen the rest, once again good find! :thumbs
A fitting tribute for a mangaka legend. Kishimoto's version is terrific, and I like the perspective that was used.

I kind of liked the Hellsing Roshi.
However, Kishi owned them all.

I love Kishimoto's art style when compared to Toriyama.
However for what Dragon Ball originally was, it was Toriyama for the win. It was all just a throwback to Chrono Cross. Now that we have Naruto, Kishi's style will of course prevail.
I don't really know, but Dragon Quest doesn't seem to be that interesting to me. But Blue Dragon looks nice.
Also, Toriyama's style looks really nice when turned into videogames. I am still waiting to see Kishi's work show in 3D how it really could be.

Kishimoto's Goku looks like Naruto, and Oda's looks like Luffy. Kubo's drawing looks great, but it has too much of the Bleach style. Although I wish Kubo had done the original DBZ. It would have been awesome.
It's really fun to see other artists draw DB characters in their styles.
I have that DBZ book that hase these, but I didn't know that one was kishi's.

Kishi's Goku actually does look like Naruto. I like his style but Akira will alway win on top. Kubo's drawing of Piccolo looks very evil and Vegeta looks like Renji...and Oda's too much of Luffy.
Oda's Goku looks like Luffy.
I liked Arina's Chichi. She looks cute.
Kubo's Trunks reminds me of Asano, lawlzorz.
