| Damn... Rest in Peace |
 |
| Hearing this news just when the anime finished airing on Nippon TV is just sad. RIP Yuuji Suzuki. May your soul depart in peace, knowing that you've done a good work. |
 |
| This is quite suddenly, RIP. Even though I haven't watched Edens Zero, I enjoyed his work/participation in Tsukimichi and Fairy Tail :( |

| RIP. Finding out this news right after I finished watching Edens Zero anime was quite shocking. |
 |
| Damn, this was too sudden! My sincerest condolences to his family and loved ones. I’ve only watched the first half of Edens Zero so far and that too just recently so this is really saddening. |

| Rest in peace. Enjoyed his direction on the Edens Zero adaptation. |
| This doesn’t feel real. But I hope he rests in peace. |
| This is quite sad, RIP |
|
| May he rest in peace. Now Edens Zero's ending feels even sadder. |
 |
| Wow, my condolences. This is really unexpected bad news. Am I getting it right that this was his first fully directed show? |
 |
| Rest in peace Yuuji Suzuki. |

| RIP i hope its not work related death though since to confirm another victim of bad working condition in the Anime Industry |
| RIP. i really hope he passed away peacefully, not because overwork related. |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| This was quite a shock to hear, may he rest in peace..:I |
   |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Wait, what?! I checked MAL News in hope of seeing an announcement of Edens Zero getting a S2 but instead, I saw the director of it passing away?!! So sad... And right after his show ended too... Rest in Peace... At least may you know that you've directed a great show... |
