Japanese Manga Artist Ashihara Hinako Found Dead Days After Protesting ‘Sexy Tanaka-san’ TV Adaptation
Japanese Manga artist Ashihara Hinako is found dead just days after she went online to protest about the TV adaptation of her 'Sexy Tanaka-san’ work.
“Don’t miss this rom-com that is guaranteed to leave you in stitches constantly, with an occasion[al] dash of tears,” says the blurb for the show on NTV’s content catalog. Ashihara, who has other credits including “Forbidden Dance” (available in English), “Bitter – Nakechau Koi Monogatari,” “Yubikiri” and “Girls Lesson,” subsequently deleted the postings. After the full show had finished airing in December, Aizawa used Instagram to explain the strange plot deviations of the final two, albeit without directly naming Ashihara.
