On March 1st we lost one of the most influential, inspired, and talented artists in modern times.
It would be a stretch to say that there is anyone whose work in television and video game animation is more highly respected and impactful. I am not the type of person who is frequently emotionally impacted by the loss of an artist or actor but there is a sinking hole in my heart knowing of his passing. There are few creators who I have held in such high regard and would label as the GOAT (greatest of all time) in their field but he stood and will continue to stand as the legend among legends.
Rest in power Akira, your art has touched the lives of billions and the legacy he leaves behind will stand for generations to come.
