There is a post of the English channel of DB as well. But Japanese post pretty much confirm it.

That's kind of a big death that should have been mentioned in press (Like Virgil (http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?516546-RIP-Virgil)). Yet he died a week ago, and I'm first hearing about it from BurningHammer. (Note: Though Virgil was mentioned in the press, I also first learned of his death from BurningHammer.)

Can Axe do us the favor and translate the Twitter link in the OP?

Anyway, rip to him. :ohwell:

Already mentioned that there is an English version that was released at the same time as well. Somebody just don't bother so here it is:

It's Japanese thing that they keep passing of certain persons quiet for few days or even weeks for personal reasons.

I was big into DB as a kid, used to acquire the japanese fansubs when the english dub only covered 25% of the series.

A true legend. R.I.P.
