 |
| Wow so young... Rest in peace. |
| So sad, RIP :( |
 |
| Ouch, and so young as well. RIP. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| This is very sad news especially for someone so young and talented. RIP. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| May you rest in peace, sweet princess. Thanks for your hard works. |
| Always very sad to hear about people passing away so soon. |
| Oh my god.. She dies at the Age of 31? She's so young :(( RIP Fujiwara-sensei! |
 |
| Respect |
| Damn, she was so young... Sad news. Rest in Peace. |
| This is quite sudden. May she rest in peace. Her last post on Twitter was a view from her parents' house when she went home. It has been retweeted almost 4,000 times as of this post. |
| NUUUUU No more hope for Inu x Boku SS S2 ;____; RIP sensei |

| RIP Sensei :( |
 |
| Sad to hear it, Inu x Boku SS was pretty enjoyable. |
 |
| She was way too young. RIP |
| I've never read any of her stuff but it's still really sad that a mangaka died :( at such a young age too. Rest in peace sensei :( |
 |
| R.I.P. |
| RIP sensei. |
    |
| RIP. 31 years old. So young... |
| I am shocked and sad... I really liked her Dear and Watashi no Ookami-san... Also her Inu x Boku SS (I only watched anime of that) was very nice as well. Her new manga looked interesting too, but we will never be able to get more of it. She wasn't that old either. Really, life is unpredictable... R.I.P, may you find a place in heaven. |

aLotQuestion said: Most probably fake. Just like those artists. Before they die, their artworks pretty much rubbish; but after passed away, their artworks value skyrocket. I think it is some sort of business strategic to fake her death in order to make her works value higher. I mean we don't even know how she looks like at all. What a f*cked up thing to say. |

| Well this sucks, she was so young.I enjoyed Inu x Boku SS anime, and first few chapters of Katsute Mahou Shoujo were a really fun read imo so i was kinda looking forward to future chapters. Anyway, hopefully she's in a better place now. |
 |
| RIP Cocoa |
 |

| 31 is too young...Was really shocked to see this news. Rest in Peace Fujiwara-sensei. Dear is among my favorite manga, and I've re-read it several times. Her artwork is really pretty too. |
| Rest in Peace, Cocoa Fujiwara-sensei. |
"Be the change you wish to see in the world."  |

I think it is some sort of business strategic to fake her death in order to make her works value higher. I mean we don't even know how she looks like at all. Mind what you say. Death is not something to be joked about and even if I can't deny there might be people like that I doubt it's the case here. She was way too young to even consider that. Her career just started and she left us too early... As to "we don't know what she looked like" we do. Fujiwara-sensei held a few signing sessions, one of them last year in summer in Germany and I saw her myself. Rest in peace, Sensei... |
| R.I.P :/ |
| RIP you died way too soon |
 |
| Well, that's quite a shock, to be honest. It makes me sad to think that great young artist died ;/ RIP aLotQuestion said: Most probably fake. Just like those artists.

I think it is some sort of business strategic to fake her death in order to make her works value higher. I mean we don't even know how she looks like at all. Possible. I've heard few times It has happened before. But I dont think it is like that in this case. |
