Angel Beats! anime’s creator needs heart transplant

Now, in a tragic case of life imitating art, Maeda himself is in need of a new heart.

Seems like what the doctors told me before, that I’m going to need a transplant, still holds true.

A scriptwriter and composer, Maeda’s credits include such high-profile series as Charlotte, Clannad, Kanon, Air, and Little Busters.
