Translated tweet
"I’ve turned another year older.
Madhouse is where I retired at the end of March. No attempts to retain me, just ended abruptly. 35 years with Madhouse. Over 20 years as an employee, severance pay: 0 yen.
Already employed at a different company. Starting fresh with a new mindset, studying diligently like a newbie while poring over Shibayama-san’s works collection. I won’t reply to DMs requesting work. My apologies."

He seems pretty resigned about that 0 yen severance: “that’s animation companies” in a following tweet. I wonder if that is Mad House specific or the norm for the industry.
Not a good look, that’s for sure. I’m sure we’ll never know what happened, but hopefully it wasn’t too awful.
