Mana died in New Jersey while touring with the band DMBQ. On November 4, 2005, another vehicle crossed lanes and struck the van from behind. The van went down an embankment and rolled over. Nishiura was ejected from the vehicle and died at the scene.
Believe it or not, that was already 9 years ago!!!
