signal boost
Oct. 18th, 2010 01:38 amTo any Saiyuki fans - as you might know, Minekura Kazuya, the unbelievably talented mangaka of Saiyuki (and Wild Adaptor and various other things, all beautiful), has been sick for some time and is currently undergoing surgery for a rare, incurable bone disorder. There’s a lovely little project here to send her a thousand (+!) origami cranes as a show of support from all her international fans:

...I hadn’t realized that Minekura was so young - she was only 22 when Saiyuki started! (Just like Odacchi - he’s the same age, and One Piece started around the same time. 1997 was a good year for manga premieres!)
