Veteran voice actor Kenji Utsumi passes away

Post by usamimi »

The voice of characters such as Sally's father in "Magical Witch Sally" (and then her grandfather in the remake), Raoh in "Fist of the North Star", Shenlong the Dragon in Dragonball/DBZ, Senbei in "Dr Slump: Arale-chan", Odin in "Saint Seiya", and so on, passed away yesterday http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2 ... asses-away Apparently he was also well known for his dubbing of English films, as he played Steve McQueen's dub voice and Jack Nicholson's version of the Joker, just to name a few.

So sad to lose another veteran from the industry. :( RIP Utsumi-san.
