I don't think we should be mourning per say because this isn't like someone being ripped of life. Much love to the guy happy to enjoy all of his work
I agree with this sentiment.

Eh. 84 is old, but not so old that he couldn't have had a few more good years left. I'd be more inclined to agree with that sentiment if he was in his 90s. 84 isn't heartbreakingly young obviously, but it does make me think "That's a bummer. It would have been entirely possible to get in five (or more) years of life worth living."

I mean five years maybe sure but it's not like he had much more to do. Not saying i'm happy he's gone just, he's probably done anything he wanted and didn't need more time per say. Also curious does anyone know how he died?

Yeah, that's fair and I understand what you mean.

May Mr Armstrong's soul rest in peace.

Dang, my favorite Ginyu. He had such charisma and had the strong leader type of voice. Perfect for the Captain. His role as Dr. Marcoh in the orginal FMA series was fantastic as well.
