A singer dying to lung cancer. That's kind of ironic and sad. Fuck, she was a huge part of the reason I loved that show.

ITS LIKE CANCER IS SOME KIND OF OMNIPOTENT BEING.

>>120008938
Why does a singer smoke or work in chimney stacks? It's a shame that she died that, so young and so much potential. Too bad she won't be able to see the GitS movie.

>>120015381
Regardless of if she did, I assume you that you don't need to be around smoke to get cancer. Pretty much anything can develop into cancer.

ORIGA DIED!?!?

WHAT THE FUCK

>>120008938
So, her nickname was Orgy?

Now with her out of the picture they don't have to pay loyalties for the film.

He's right about the order, I wouldn't agree that you could call SAC a remake though, but that's just semantics.

The Oshii movies, SAC and Arise are all separate entities that adapt the same Manga differently.

Some composers have decent singing ability even though you rarely hear it with most of them.

Kanno does some vocals and I know Kajiura does a shitton of background vocals for Kalafina and other BGMs.

I mean shit, how are you supposed to direct your singers if you're not at least decent at singing yourself?

It does sometimes just happen. I mean, Christopher Reeve's wife died of lung cancer without ever having smoked. I've even heard of it as an extraordinarily rare pregnancy complication.

>people are not allowed to stand out

You know, this kind of explains to me why Japan is so fond of harem self-insert shows, even if everyone in the cast is distinctly Japanese.

It's not "their" Japan.

Whether you're Kirito, Ichika, or Onii-sama, and even if they live in a place in a country called "Japan", it is not "their" Japan.

Does a series that take place with Japanese high schoolers exhibit traits you'd find in a Japanese high school? Yes. Does that include judging based on grades/hobbies, bullying, and any other kind of shit that could be considered unpleasant about the high school experience? Yes. Because you're led to believe if you don't live your school life and your life after in some sort of predetermined and conformist fashion, you're toxic to society. What good are you as a person if you don't blend in and act like all of your peers - the "nail that sticks out the most gets hammered down" in terms of social ostracizing.

But the thing all of these characters have in common is an outlet: an outlet where a particular quirk which might otherwise be considered as a bad thing in actual Japanese society is actually lauded and applauded for in a character's own universe. Where being the most special snowflake is not viewed as you going against the system, but that it is something you should be honored and praised for. Whether you're a automatic killbot,a super gamer, or the only dude in a girl's school, the real reason Japs lap this kind of material up is precisely because it's escapist: "How cool would be it be to do something that makes me stand out and get praised for and not live in a society where my worth as an individual is how good I am at being another cog in the Japanese "the best work comes from team synergy and not standing out" machine.

In most parts of the bigger cities, it's illegal to smoke in public places.
You'll see smoking rooms everywhere.

When i travel to the nearest city where i live (Melbourne, Aus) I almost have to hold my fucking breath everywhere from all the goddam smokers.
But in Japan i hardly ever noticed it

Well that's surreal news. I saw her at Youmacon at the beginning of this past November. For passport reasons the con had to livestream her from across the river in Canada. She had a short set and she sang beautifully. It's odd that she died a little over two months after that performance. She must've either had it and didn't want to show or let on that she had it. Or it developed very quickly. Regardless this is really sad and I thought her songs in Ar Nosurge were really great. I miss her.

While they might be several environmental causes for lung cancer, Smoking is commonly cited as a factor that enchances the probability to develop one. Just read any medical magazine.

It might not be 100% correct, but assuming she smoked like a chimney is a safe bet, sadly.
