Zac Bertschy R.I.P.

Long time Anime News Network journalist Zac Bertschy passed away yesterday, May 21st, 2020. Zac was well known among anime fans for his acerbic perspective on anime, yet despite his frequent and intense criticisms, he was also a constant and devoted fan of the medium.

I never knew Zac well. He treated me to lunch once during the 2004 Anime Boston convention, and I spoke to him briefly at a few Anime Expo conventions. Although cynical, he always seemed personable and good-humored. His passing is certainly untimely and unfortunate.
