Eiichiro Oda, the creator of One Piece, and the late Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball, were close friends. Oda has openly expressed his love for Toriyama’s work and has even credited Toriyama with revolutionizing the manga industry. As a child, Oda was inspired by Toriyama’s work and has said that Toriyama is his biggest influence. Today, we’ll be looking at 10 instances where both series were acknowledged. 

1. Eyecatchers

In episode 1066 of One Piece, they played homage to the Dragon Ball/ Z by recreating a couple of their most iconic eyecatchers with the Kozuki family.

2. Krillin's Ringtone

In Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F, Krillin’s ringtone is revealed to be an instrumental version of One Piece’s “We Are”.

7. Krillin's Shirt

In chapter 95 of Dragon Ball Super, Krillin can be seen sporting a “One ☮︎ (Peace)” shirt. If it wasn’t already clear based on his ringtone, this easter egg is an obvious reference to the One Piece franchise.

10. Toriyama Draws Luffy

To finish off this list, we’re taking things back to 2007. One Piece 10th Treasures is a special collectors book released to celebrate the 10th anniversary of One Piece. It features an entire section dedicated to One Piece art done by other manga artists in their art styles.
