The Creator of Crayon Shin-chan, Yoshito Usui, died

The creator of popular manga and anime is now gone.

He was said to be missing since September 11 when he was climbing Mount Arafune of the Gunma prefecture. The next day his family reported him missing when he did not return from hiking. The police began searching for Usui from the family’s request on September 15. The body was discovered on Saturday, September 19th,  by a climber and on September 20 his body was airlifted. Police concluded it was the 51-yr-old creater and died from collapsed lungs and other injuries.

 

The Crayon Shin-Chan manga will continue until November.

 

Even when I was little, I rememebered watching Crayon Shin-chan on TV and til this day I still have episodes in videos. Everytime I would visit famliy in Japan I would remember to watch Shin-Chan when it was on. Yoshito Usui, he will be missed and so will Crayon Shin-chan.
