Takeshi Tamiya has passed away.
He is a wonderful senior who caused a stir in Something Yoshimatsu-sensei's Slayers behind-the-scenes manga, "I Did It, Uncle."
The person who first started the Slayers anime adaptation.
(The movie version before the TV version.
I loved him so much.
We pray for your soul to rest in peace.
During the big gathering for the first movie, when I was running around confused, he called out to me, "Araizumi Sensei!" ( ´ ◡ ` ) and helped me relax...
"Rina-chan is so cute! I love her ♥ " he said...
He was a really wonderful man.
Thank you for all the wonderful works you have brought to the anime industry.
