My Obituary

Tristan Borillo, one of the greatest American otaku, dies in his home in Tokyo at the age of 83. Leading an ambitious, but lonely life, Borillo succumbed to a rare form of lung disease.

I'm just looking for something that allows me to take creative liberties with a brand name and make something unique. To be successful in this position, one would have to be aware of how the...
