Kuri was an accomplished manga artist, producer, character designer, animator, and director several iconic anime series.
I can't believe nobody posted anything in regards here anywhere at https://lemmy.film! 5000 posts drooling over Barbie and Oppenheimer* but not a word about Kuri's passing. And I don't even like anime, generally!
From the linked article…
The Yoshida brothers’ impact on the Japanese animation industry is hard to overstate. The work done by Kuri and his siblings and Tatsunoko has stood the test of time and helped define several generations of the art form.
