Do we know how old they were? Still a huge loss regardless, looking at those credits. RIP

Terribly sad. Her work will live on- I was especially blown away by her work on Mob Psycho 100 and the CCS movie. Very distinctive visual style and I loved her used of contrast, space and color. What a talent. May she rest in peace.

Cardcaptor Sakura: The Sealed Card was the first anime movie to really grab my heart. This is so sad.

Considering all the news about deaths I worry for the people working in the anime industry.

I wasn't familiar with her name, but I am absolutely familiar with just about every series credited to her here on ANN. Many are my favorites specifically because of their art styles and the background art. Excellent work, and her efforts will be missed. Rest in peace, and thank you.
