[00:00] Bro, I did not want to wake up to this news this morning, man. What? This is like my childhood, dude. Like, this dude created like a huge chunk of my childhood.
[00:14] So, Jun Mayado, the legendary writer behind Clannad and so many other influential works like Angel Beats, he's worked on Charlotte, he's done Rewrite, he's done Little Busters, The Air Movie,
[00:28] He's worked on so many legendary things over the journey of his life and being a part of the industry. He has been diagnosed with cancer. And the sad thing about this whole situation is that it seems like he has more or less either A, he's been told that there's no chance of survival, or he's given up, one or the other.
[00:49] And the reason why we know that is because he talks about how he's not going to be doing any active treatment, and he is going to be undergoing basically this type of care, which is more or less just relieving symptoms and pain and emotional stress until the time of death.
[01:03] So more or less to summarize what he going to be getting is that he just going to be on hard medication up until the point that he eventually passes And obviously I no doctor and you can fully trust you know Google with everything but apparently you know what he has is throat cancer and throat cancer
[01:20] you can live up to probably like 12 to maybe 20 or so months. So he more or less, I'm judging by him saying he's not going to be seeking out active treatment. Like he's not pursuing it. And he's just going to be doing this type of care. It implies that he's probably not,
[01:34] didn't receive good news that he probably doesn't have much longer left to live and the saddest thing about this whole situation is that he literally says that yeah I'm sorry this is actually making me sad because this dude he actually created my childhood like like I remember
[01:51] watching and reading like all the works that he's worked on over the years he he honestly really crafted my childhood of getting into like romance and different stories like you know
[02:03] and seeing that he's going to be using the last remaining bits of his life to focus on his creative work it heartbreaking because it shows he still wants to keep working he still wants to keep doing what he loves but obviously that not an option and dude I I hate this man
[02:25] this really hurts because like this is not something I wanted to wake up and see today see basically one of my childhood writers script writers and music creators someone that literally
[02:39] has worked on angel beats worked on clannad air he's done the music the theme songs and stuff like this you can just see the work he's done anyone that has been in like the anime community for a very long time and has watched like let's say clannad knows just how impactful this man is
[02:54] and to actually see this is just it's depressing like this actually is some extremely depressing news i hate to be the bearer of bad news and start off the day like this especially monday
[03:07] of all days, but like, oh my goodness, man, I, I, I honestly, there's a part of me, I hope, I hope that he tries, he gets convinced to do active treatment, I understand probably why he
[03:20] doesn't want to, for those that don't know, because I've actually, I've seen, I've seen family members that have undergone cancer treatment and you do you become it really painful because it like you become a husk kind of like depending on how the treatment and chemotherapy is you can basically
[03:37] just be laying there like a husk for a long time while you're taking this treatment, and the final months and stretches of your months and all that before potentially you might die, it could be just very draining, and it looks like you just become like a skeleton, or just, you know, not even really
[03:51] there anymore, and so maybe the reason why Jumai doesn't want to do this is because he doesn't want the last moments of his life, last few months of him just being bedridden and not being able to do anything, he wants to be able to just stand around, walk around, do a little bit of things that he
[04:05] possibly can do before, you know, uh, he obviously, he passes away, this, like I said, I'm really sad about this news, this, this hurts, man, this actually does, this is a very legendary individual,
[04:17] he is very very legendary and I really hope that he he changes his mind and he gets active treatment and it works I understand why he wouldn't want to depending on the diagnosis but yeah anyways I will
[04:33] leave it at that uh I just wanted to talk about this briefly but I love you guys be safe stay healthy chibi out
