Mangaka Kouji Miyata has died on October 22 at the age of 34. According to a Facebook post by his father, Miyata died of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.

In 2006, Miyata received an honorable mention in the 8th Enterbrain Entame Awards for his entry titled Jabara. He debuted as a mangaka later that year in the magazine Comic Beam Fellows! with the one-shot Neko de Tandem. Both titles were later added in the author's short stories collection, Utatane Hime.

He began his first serialization in 2008 with Kikimimi Zukan, which was published in Comic Beam. Miyata's most recent work, Yome ga Kore na mon de. (pictured right), ended serialization in July.

The funeral will take place on Wednesday at Dainichido Funeral Hall in Nishitokyo.

To die so young in the country with the highest life expectancy in the world. Tragic. RIP.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Having a happy and colorful picture next to a news item about someone's death feels inappropriate somehow. Maybe it's just me. RIP in any case.

Very sad , I only discovered his work pretty recently , and I found him very talented .

So young for an author , I'm sure he would have done a lot of other good works if it didn't happened . Very sad indeed .

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
