Dying as an Anime Fan

Family Honors Anime Fan Killed While Serving in Iraq - ANN

19-year-old Private First Class Christian Neff was killed in action in Baghdad on September 19. Because Neff was an anime fan, his family hung one of his figures from the newly dedicated tree.
Here’s something that I think is worthy of a tribute, albeit on a war as pointless as where it’s been fought.

    While the story is sad, this makes me feel good as an anime fan. :3

    I reckon the bloke would have appreciated the gesture by his family.

    Well, I guess it would be because we live and die by our interests. :P
