Momento Mori - Satoshi Kon
Aug. 25th, 2010 12:04 amSo anime director Satoshi Kon died of cancer on the 23rd of August.
For those of you who don't recognize the name (I honestly didn't recognize it when I first read this news) he was the anime director for, among other things, Perfect Blue, Paprika, and I suppose Lacy would hurt me if I failed to mention Tokyo Godfathers (one of her favorites which I haven't seen).
I'm not going to say too much, since I don't know much about the man but respected what work of his I'd seen. He was an unsurpassed storyteller and he definitely will be missed.
Shine on You Crazy Diamond.
