This really sucks. Always sad to hear when somebody dies especially when it is a great voice actor/actress. Really liked his work as Rikishii.

R.I.P Ashita no joe is a great anime and inspired many other anime including Hajime No Ippo.

Rumors of his death were floating around Twitter on the 31st. Then I didn't hear anything about it in the news for days, so it seemed to be a hoax.

So sad that it turned out to be true. I mostly know him through Yamato. Ashita no Joe is one of those shows I keep meaning to watch and really should.
