This year is cursed for the anime industry. How about that?

Takashi Makino of the singing duo Tokyo Purin passed away due to respiratory failure from lung cancer early on Friday morning, December 7. He was 49.


Is the date correct? He was able to blog on February 5 but passed away on December 7?

Either way, sad news. 46 is awfully young these days.

Also, December 7 was a Saturday, while February 7 was a Friday.

(I blame the events of 1941 for the date confusion.)
