Apparently there's a picture of his actual imouto in Volume 11's inner cover, though I can't find what he's talking about

a lot of westoids, either ESL or EOP, crucified Umaru as an obnoxious character with /pol/ tier adjectives and still do. But alas, las vueltas que da la vida; Umaru is based on a real person who is dead.
Funny this news is not covered by those people now and may never will.

Even with Japan's medical technology, they still couldn't saved her, that says a lot about how serious it was.
I'm really sorry for his loss. I hope she's in a better place now.

pretty much
but you are expecting a mangaka to have enough social skiils to know more women.
He even says on the video it was a nightmare to attend the congratulations dinners for the anime when her actual little sister was dead.

I don't get the hate on Umaru. It's not a weird brocon/siscon series that those particular crowd would hate. The designs are cute. The OP is catchy. The story itself is pretty mediocre. Umaru can be annoying, but isn't to the point that warrants the hate that she gets imo.
>>
>>284635289
in V11 author cover he put his imouto-chan's picture...
He said he doesn't want you to forget Umaru-chan because she's the proof that his imouto lived. ;_;

no way this is true op. it sounds too sad to be real.

His imouto pic

>>284636681
If you listened to the video, Sankaku Head himself at the time was in denial too. When his Imouto first told him about her sickness, he told her "You're worrying too much, I'm sure it's nothing serious. Look, me, dad and mom are healthy, I'm sure it'll be fine". And when they went to check to the doctor, indeed it was that serious and I guess that really shocked him. Maybe he thought it was an illness that can be cured by modern medicine, I guess that's the common attitude of most Japanese.
>>
>>284635289
I don't even like Umaru, but losing your Imouto is very sad.

Could be pancreatic cancer, Satoshi Kon also died from it. Although Kon was a heavy drinker and smoker. Or maybe breast cancer.

Welp. This is mega sad. Although there was a lot of gore in Uma threads, she was still 4chan "mascot" for many years. RIP poor imouto.

funny enough Umaru-chan has the least weird sister-brother relationship from the myriad of brother-sister manga out there.
You could say their relationship is normal
On the other hand, I was just reading a manga chapter about how is ok for someone to have multiple sides for different people when it comes to socialize.
Not the first time to read something like that but also shows the mangaka was not far fetched on umaru's portrayal of human's multiple ways of socialization despite he is not that knowledgeable on human relations beyond her sister.

They may have better healthcare but their meds are kinda weak, also their dental work is more dragged out unless specifically requested work that would take one session in other places is done in several.

Pancreatic cancer patient is typically a 60-70 year old man and breast cancers don't usually develop before 30s. If it was a terminal cancer that developed in a woman in her 20s I'd guess something like a brain tumour or leukemia.
>>284638533
An actual dentist-anon here. I've heard that Japanese dentistry is not in high regard, but dragging out treatments is not explicitly a bad thing, and can save you a root canal treatment in some cases.

They hate those? I thought it not being on read the reason umaru got hated. Kissxsis was super popular back then even among normalfag for example, not to mention oreimo.
>>
>>284637180
My uncles lost of their imoutos (my mom) this year, and my aunt will probably die from the same thing sooner or later. That got me thinking about what I would do if something were to happen to my sisters...
Don't take anyone for granted.

kissxsis is NBR, and oreimo got a lot of hate. Kuronekofags are STILL crying to this very day.

Thing that I forgot to mention. He has TWO imouto (before), I'm not sure if they're twins, but it seems not since he didn't mention futago. But yeah, he still has another little sister.

That's why sometimes he draws a blue umaru, which is his other little sister.

Statistics work in this kind of situation in exactly the same way as they do in any other. One thing being more likely than the other is not a guarantee that the less likely thing won't happen. I got permanently crippled as a result of cancer as a teenager. It was way more likely that it wouldn't happen, most teenagers don't get cancer at all, but that doesn't mean the odds are invalid because the less likely thing happened to one of tens of millions of teenagers.
