Maiden With Eyes of Blue

Rest in Peace, Takahashi. Your legacy continues to live on. 🖤

Sucks knowing it seems like an accident rather than health or age related issues too.

He’s just out there in Okinawa, eating with his friends and taking pictures, I’m sure he’ll be back and post his journey on instagram…

It’s not 100%, the police are going to investigate further, and it’s just going to be a mistake, I’m sure…

He’s going to go back to his hotel room and posting like usual, I want to believe it…

He’ll go home and take care of his precious puppy, and they would live happily ever after, I want to believe that…

I don’t even know what to write. Kazuki Takahashi is gone… the mangaka of Yugioh. Fuck this hits me so fucking hard. I am drawing Yuugi right now, an hour ago I was watching the last season. His series changed my life forever, for fucking ever.

I would be an entirely different person if not for Yugioh. It led me straight into drawing, I have friends from 20 years ago I talk to everyday thanks to it. I can hardly describe how much of an impact the characters and the series have had throughout my childhood AND adulthood. I am so, so devastated but also so, so grateful for everything he did. He is such a legend, he was such a caring human too

He is such an inspiration to me and to millions of people around the world who enjoy to this day and for years to come his genius. I wanted to meet him so badly but I thank him for never giving up on his dream, for letting us into his world and gifting us such beloved characters.
