I always looked at Kinji Yoshimoto and Satoshi Urushihara as the dynamic duo of fanservice anime! I used to own a copy of the Plastic Little and Legend of Lemnear OVAs back during my anime club days and cherished them greatly knowing full well that I would be getting good schlock along with some beautiful animation.

Say what you will from the type of content that Yoshimoto dabbled in, his fanservice productions were AMAZING!

R.I.P. Yoshimoto-san. You were one of the greats!

At least Satoshi Urushihara will still carry on the legacy with his beautiful illustrations!

Ah, damn. Sad Back when I first got into Anime I rented Plastic Little from Blockbuster and I've been a fan ever since. His animation style was some of the best. Does anyone know what the cause of death was?
