According to FNN news and other various sources, a body was found in Arafune mountain and was later identified by authorities to be 「Crayon Shin-chan」 manga author Usui Yoshito (51). It is believed that he had fallen 120 meters below Tomoiwa cliff. He last told his family on September 11th that he was going hiking in Gunma Prefecture. The family later reported him missing and the Saitama Prefecture Police have been in search for Usui ever since.

Sanspo.com reports that Manga Town magazine will continue their serialization of the「Crayon Shin-chan」 manga up until the release of their December issue — in stores November. Usui had submitted 2 more chapters just before his untimely death. No word yet on the future of the TV anime series.

Heard the news just now also. Though I am not a fan of crayon shin, it is definitely a big loss to his fans out there. RIP

Untimely death for Usui Yoshito, wonder if the rights of Crayon Shin-chan is with Manga Town magazine or Usui Yoshito? Does anyone know if Crayon Shin-chan series will be canned or continue with a new manga author? I'm not a fan of Crayon Shin-chan but do have a few of the Chinese version compilations volume.
