Absolutely! Eiichiro Oda, the creator of One Piece, has openly expressed his admiration for Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball. Oda was hugely influenced by Toriyama's work and even worked as an assistant for him before. The playful humor, emphasis on friendship, and epic adventure elements in One Piece definitely share a spirit with Dragon Ball.

YES. One Piece feels like a love letter to Dragon Ball in many ways. Super cool to see such epic inspiration!

Dragon Ball's impact on One Piece is kinda like the foundation of a building. Oda took that inspiration and built a whole new world that stands on its own. It's not about copying; it's about being inspired to make something unique!
