Jōji Yanami passed-away

[Fantastische Hure]

I just heard about that. Jōji Yanami has passed-away. He voiced the narrator (for the entire franchise up-to early DragonBall Super) and Master Kaio notably for DragonBall.

They replaced him early-on in DragonBall Super because of age problems I think so yeah.

Rest in peace.

RIP, he should've retired before Super and I enjoyed his voice work in both DB/Z and Inuyasha (even though the latter series went to shit)

 

[Fantastische Hure]

I have no idea what he did for Inu-Yasha, but he was a legend. He was there from the beginning for the DragonBall TV-series. Might have actually (can’t check right-now) uttered the first line of dialogue for the series.

He was Totosai. You couldn't tell by his voice?

 

[Fantastische Hure]

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I hadn’t watched in a-bit and never really looked. He has so many notable roles to his name though, it’d be impossible to remember everything.

Damn RIP.

The narrator? Aw man. RIP.

 

[Symbiote]

He was a real one.

RIP. "Time is depressing", as a wise old man once said.

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

RIP. These voice actors are on their way out due to the old age. Bulma's VA died in an accident iirc, Mr. Satan's VA also passed away last year I think and now this.

I thought Bulma’s seiyuu just passed-away. Not an accident. That was also Mr. Satan’s second seiyuu who passed-away recently.
