A body was apparently found at the foot of some cliffs on a mountain trail Yoshito Usui may have been hiking. The body is set to be recovered on Sunday so an ID will be possible at that point in time.

Potentially sad news for Crayon Shin-chan fans.

Sadly, reports now indicate that the body police found yesterday and recovered on Sunday did indeed belong to Yoshito Usui.

    I think some of the translations may have been a bit over the top, although the program itself is quite "out there."

    I'm still a little surprised that he's gone. I never got the chance to meet him personally when I worked at TV Asahi, but he seemed like an interesting person.
