Oh my god, I just read about this...
May she rest in peace and always be remembered through the manga she left.

Hetakoi will probably always remain one of my 'sentimental' manga (was between the first I read after all) and will remain in my pc until god knows when.

... I always thought it was a guy who did Hetakoi and Chisa. If I recall correctly, the volume 4 of Chisa was the earliest seinen ecchi manga I'd bought years ago because of it's over 18 restriction label. What I like about her works is that her has a easily recognizable artstyle and her attempts to give both gender perspectives within her romance stories.

RIP

The picture of Ruka at the bottom left sure leave a bitter-sweet feeling.

I've just finished Hetakoi.
It's a pity a good mangaka had to go so early... Rest in peace Nakano-sensei.

Her work was a guilty pleasure of mine. It's saddening to see such great person to die so young. Rest in peace, Nakano Junko. You'll be remembered.

Well at least she finished her work unlike the MM and Kaze no Stigma's authors. It's sad that a mangaka has died though

first off, this is very sad. alot of good mangakas and novelists are passing away. i really liked hetakoi. i liked the art style and the author's use of narrative. also, grandpa komai is prolly one of the best male lead in a romance manga. not as overconfident as most shoujo manga leads and also not as wimpy as most shounen manga leads. the story's flow is good too tho i cant help but feel like the ending was somehow rushed. there are some stuff that didnt have any conclusion like what happened with kotone and yuu or ruka's friend or what happened to both grandpa and ruka's exes and a few more tho its still a good ending. now its officially the last we'll read of her works. sad. RIP.

I was just trying to find other works of her yesterday and I noticed there is no work of her anymore. The last one I read was "Until I Turn Around the Corner" which is pretty good.
Hetakoi is awesome, I really love it but Chisa X pon is breaking my heart. I'm waiting Chisa X Pon to finish translating so I can understand the whole story.

Being a mangaka, a job that forces you to sit on your butt for the whole day actually is very bad for your heart eh?

Anyway, rest in peace . . .

For life of mangaka, smoking is much more likely to cause heart problem than sitting on your butt all day I would say.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.
