Out of respect to her family i would like to ask you to take down this speculation about suicide. Her family and friends are all grieving her loss and it is very upsetting to find these things on the internet. Please can we just celebrate her life and her genius. Thank you.

I was really inspired by the wonderful work of Nagi Noda whilst studying drama at university and injected my own versions of her style into a dramatised adaptation of a short story and got an A for my efforts thanks to Nagi. I tell everyone about her and am conducting a workshop around her work at my drama class this evening. Her memory will live on in all of us who discovered her and are wowed by her genius, as well as her family. That is so sad.

I found out about her and her Hanpanda animals a few years back. Pretty haunting, that statement that she might have dresses for death... yet impressive, if it is true. Very sad news altogether. :( Oh, I can’t believe she’s dead: She was so young! I found out about her and her Hanpanda animals a few years back.
