Hiroshi Hayakawa, president of the TV Asahi (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=160) network, said at a Tuesday press conference that his company is aiming to continue airing the Crayon Shin-chan (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=540) anime after the death (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-09-20/body-identified-as-crayon-shin-chan-yoshito-usui) of the series creator, Yoshito Usui (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=15617). Authorities determined (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-09-20/body-identified-as-crayon-shin-chan-yoshito-usui) last week that Usui died from injuries sustained from a fall at Arafune mountain on September 11. According to Hayakawa, TV Asahi has been discussing the possibility of future work with the Shinei Animation (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=2019) production company and Usui's family, and has asked for the family's input. Hayakawa cited Doraemon (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1318) and Sazae-san (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=870) as examples of anime that have continued after their creators passed away.
Even before Usui's death, the anime series had already been scheduled (http://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/shinchan/) to go on hiatus until October 16. The Japanese publisher Futabasha (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=2276) plans (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-09-20/crayon-shin-chan-to-continue-in-mag-until-november) to publish the last two installments of the original Crayon Shin-chan manga in Manga Town magazine in October and November. CMX Manga (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=2618) has been releasing the original manga in English in North America. Funimation (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=6515) has been adapting the television anime into dubbed English, and America's Adult Swim (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=2514) network used to run episodes every Sunday morning.
