He is gonna be ok.
Even if he die, he can always use some kind of reset button to reach a happy ending somehow (like that crazy time travel through dreams and power of friendship at the end of Little Busters!'s VN, just after Rin 2 iirc).

Or the extra dimensional robot teddy thing in Clannad (Am I remembering that right?), or the previously unknown time-travelling sibling in Charlotte.

Clannad at least got it pretty nicely in the context (and had the odd elements foreshadowed from the beginning), Little Busters and Charlotte just came out of nowhere with those twists haha

Oh no! Not Jun Maeda! 
Hopefully, he gets better soon!

I get that he has quite the reputation, but isn't this a bit tasteless given the subject matter? Hospitalisation is usually a serious ordeal, no matter who it is.

Perhaps, but the irony of him always using sudden illness and hospitalization as a source of drama in his works can't be ignored.

Here's hoping Mr. Maeda-san make a full, comfortable recovery soon. His works of Clannad, Kanon, and Air are emotionally touching.

Hospitals are no fun ( Trust me on this. ) even if they make for a good plot point.
Here's hoping for Maeda-sensi to make a full recovery.

To put all seriousness aside, I nearly spat out the cereal I was eating all over my laptop when I scrolled down and saw that picture. Good job.

Where was this reset button that we so desperately needed in Air?

Thanks for the link jymmy!...Although Maeda has mostly slept since his check-in yesterday, he has expressed his enjoyment watching the snow fall on Tokyo from his hospital window...Just like poor Ayu-Ayu~~~~~~ Y-You'd better just get well soon!!

I truly enjoyed Charlotte, despite the show doing its level best to make me hate it by throwing away three episodes of stellar development.
Rest in peace, Jun Maeda. May your works live on, even if you won't.
