Kinji Yoshimoto, Director of Queen's Blade Anime, passes away at age 55

Not the kind of upbeat news we deliver in this blog, but alas...

Thanks to our pal Darkworld97 for the heads up, it hasn't been reported in many anime sites yet, but the official japanese press release is here (which the japanese wikipedia seems to be confirming), and there are more details here: https://remonews.com/mexicoeng/fallecio-kinji-yoshimoto-director-of-arifureta-shokugyou-de-sekai-saikyou-kudasai/

Besides Queen's Blade, he worked on many other series, as you can see in his Wikipedia page...

And not much more I can say, except: rest in peace, sweet prince.
