Feels weird. I grew up with Dragon Ball, Dai No Daiboken, Dragon Quest. Chrono Trigger is my favorite game of all time. He did the artwork/artstyle on most things of my childhood that I adore. His influence cannot be overstated. Ive championed his work throughtout my life. Im just not processing this. And I always think its weird when people feel sad when a celebrity passes away, but I dunno, im feeling off today. 

I mean, if a celebrity's work meant a lot to you, I don't see why it's weird to feel sad for them. I have family members who I didn't have contact with for decades and I still felt kind of sad when they were gone even though we lost contact for one reason or another.
