Wow. Unfortunate that had to happen. I hope Kenichi's family and friends can get through this. Thank you for having an impact on our child/adulthood.

RIP

Sad to hear that he's passed away at such a young age.

I loved Pale Ale from OVA1. The ending, carry on, was fine too... although a bit strange. They set the tone of that story arc very well.

Here's a live performance of Pale Ale from 2004. Definitely a rocking song.

I'm so sorry to hear this. "For Real" pretty much equals Saiyuki in my head, especially the piano version.

Unfortunately, it's moments like these when this stops being funny.

2016 has been a very brutal year for the anime and music industries. Sad
Rest in peace, Mr. Kurosawa-san. Your singing was an awesome sound to hear.

Um, this is Kurosawa Kenichi, not Suzumura Kenichi.

That's sad. Although I've never heard of him before now,it's still sad to hear of Mr. Kurosawa's passing. It looks like the Grim Reaper's really got it out for the entertainment industry this year.

R.I.P. Mr. Kurosawa. You passed away far too young. It's always sad when a life is cut short far too soon,whether it be from natural causes or something else entirely. I hope your family gets through this painful time.

Songs "For Real" and "Still Time" are one of my favorites.
