Taku Inoue to leave Bandai Namco
Composer Taku Inoue has announced today via Twitter that he will be leaving Bandai Namco at the end of this month. “I was able to do the best job with the best colleagues at my best workplace and I was fortunate enough to be happy,” a rough translation of his tweet reads. “Everyone who took care of us, everyone who supported us, thank you very much!”
