Y'know, I google image searched to try to find a picture, but that was one of the first images (from a forum post not even related, oddly enough) and I found it fitting that I post that.
The creator of Pokemon died after being rushed to the hospital Thursday at 6:00 AM Japanese time. He suffered a blood hemorrhage and collapsed at a Japanese station. He was the head writer for the original Pokemon anime (back when it was any good), as well as the writing for the first three movies in the series (which still are awesome, even today).
He's also listed as having worked on some anime called "Fairy Princess Minky Momo" which (in my own limited knowledge) hasn't been brought to the states. He also wrote for the "Martian Successor Nadesico" anime (which was pretty good from what I remember).
Everyone pour out a shot of alcohol and let's have a moment of silence. The world has lost another gifted individual.
RIP Takeshi Shudo, sleep well, sweet prince.
