Hopefully her marriage will work out better than her School Days character's relationship did... Laughing

Of course, it will. Wish the best to the voice actress and hope localisation speeds up for the game (which is apparently getting an announcement soon according to JAST USA's twitter) and the anime (odd no one has touched it despite the viral spread of information about it and FUNimation's recent focus).

Hands up who though when starting to read "School Days Voice Actress Shiho Kawaragi..." "...Acused of Murder" or "...has Passed Away"!

Note: This comment has no relation to the VA herself, it's just because of the "School Days" title, so don't think badly of me xP.

she's a hentai VA to begin with, so I doubt she had many otaku fans.

Well, its a different reason than you think. Many of these seiyuu get their popularity through being pop idols and releasing CDs and doing concerts... hentai seiyuu don't do that, due to being a lower tier of seiyuus that can't get the record deals (though some of them eventually do get to that level like Shizuka Itou). So its tougher for them to build a fanbase compared to the top tier anime seiyuu.

And here I though US pop/idol culture was bad. Well, I guess that explains it...

I always anticipate hearing about voice actors doing stuff which matches the media or character they voice. It adds to the "mythos" behind them and for that reason, I was kinda expecting what you were... >_>

*Hand up*
