Anon Babble is too young to know any of those. RIP.

some of her last roles seemed to be xamd and 2014 precure

Cinderella boy is amazing
rip

There is a Ashita no Joe 2????

I get it OP its always sad when someone dies, but why should anyone in this imageboard care? It's not like she was still active in her role. Literally nothing changed

Goodbye obasan.

it's sort of interesting looking at gaijin sites, they seem to have her birth year wrong, like gaijin wiki, ann, etc

if you were born after WWII are you even human

Crack open a textbook, youngblood

it's a career since the 60s who voiced for all sorts of long running series including anne, gundam, and precure at 79 years old, which has pokemon tier viewership in moonland
i'm not sure what you're trying to expect

Which one piece character she voiced?

RIP

89

Eh, lived long enough and doesnt seem to have many prominent roles. I dont like being fake for the sake niceness so i cant really say im sad to see her go as i wasnt even aware of her existence before this thread.

RIP

I watched Gokudo, but her roll there wasn't much from what I remember.

Honor roll?

Creator of Doraemon made other series.
She's MC for 3 of them.
Obake - ~700 eps
Ninja - ~700 eps
Chinpui - ~60 eps

Rest in peace

Rest In Peace.

no one should care when an industry veteran dies

You're a terrible person, then. I'm sure you wouldn't want to be forgotten when you die.

Literal who

Little my? Aww man

Rest in peace.

She lived a good, long life and now she gets to rest. I'll try not to be too jealous. Rest in peace.

RIP

she voiced Little My

RIP

One day it'll be the turn of the likes of Yumi Touma, Reina Ueda, Saori Hayami and Aoi Yuuki and the newfags inside our nutfags will go "Who was that?" in whatever way will be relevant in 20+ years.

Largely before my time but I used to watch Moonmins as a kid
Rest in Peace

RIP. 89 is a decent run though

It's the second anime they made 10 years after the first one, it starts right after the Rikishii fight

RIP

Rest in Peace.

Rest in peace, Hori

At least he's learned to stop putting the ANN link in the op

Feels a lot of people are dying this year...

Thank you for your service.

Farewell, legend.

She voiced the old hag from Gokudo, uh? that anime was good as far as Slayers style shows go, she was basically the Xellos of the show, don't have any pics of the character tho so have this pic of Gokudo's soul inside Rubette's body instead

She voiced the titular Chinpui with Megumi Hayashibara voicing his female pal, I liked the show's antagonist a blonde alien loli

I liked the second ending theme, it was great, from what I read the anime had barely anything to do with the original novels and they only adapted the first couple of them, removing the more gory and lewd stuff
I wish the would adapt more of the novels someday

89, maybe she rest in peace

Man I liked Cinderella Boy

1 good role

Many such cases.

Not the 90s series which is what everyone remembers Moomin for, to be fair. She has the same voice as Shampoo from Ranma there instead. The 60s-70s Moomin anime was an abomination so bad it made other authors like Astrid Lindgren distrust Japanese animation studios and reject Miyazaki's offer to make a Pippi Longstocking anime.

Literally WHO

RIP
