Huh. Kentaro Miura also passed away rather young considering the life expectancy in Japan, I wonder if it's the stress or something doing these people in. Anyways, my condolences to the family and friends.

Miura's was a heart problem.

Toriyama died essentially by internal brain bleeding, the same fate that took Kurosaki Maon (singer) last year. She died at 35

Making manga is crazy stressful, I've wondered the same thing. Can't be good for you.

It is, but it’s probably not the reason of death for those two. They were already really popular and freed themselves from the “shackles” of regular serialization. It’s especially rough on emerging authors who can’t afford to say “no” to their editors.
