What a sad moment. May your life still be held in heaven.

On another note, I think the reason why many Japanese people who works die so young is due to overworking from what I've gathered. That and the rigid work ethics.

You're definitely not kidding. I have a student from Japan (he's learning Spanish), and he always is so tired, he falls asleep during the break, and then he begrudgingly wakes up when I come back to class. I feel so bad for him for sticking to such a stressful way of living, even though I'm not one to speak (yay for 15-hour workdays!).

Having said that, R.I.P.

An amazing drummer and very prolific. Way too young... I wonder if it was something hereditary. Vgmdb has the most complete listing of his works: https://vgmdb.net/artist/10929

Oh this is really sad news.


I checked out the vgmdb (man haven't been back there in awhile, and I was just thinking about that site last week) and wow, I actually own some of these titles. Wow.

As mentioned in the VGMDB entry, Yamauchi-san was the drummer in the recording of "Welcome to Japari Park", the Kemono Friends opening song memorably performed at Animelo Summer Live 2017.

Very sadly missed.
