RIP Chieko Honda

Post by usamimi »

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... asses-away

Voice actress Chieko Honda passed away on the 18th from cancer. She was in a lot of older series, such as Dragonball, Gall Force, Kimagure Orange Road, Rurouni Kenshin, Sailor Moon S, Yu Yu Hakusho, Here is Greenwood, Revolutionary Girl Utena, and several Gundam series.

I know some people thought she had an annoying voice, but I always thought she sounded very cute. RIP, Honda-san. u__u

I read about that yesterday. Very sad. She was one of my favorites.

I remember her as a voice actor that Kosuke Fujishima based a character on in ああっ女神さまっ
He put a tribute to her in his twitter today.

Yeah, she played Manami in KOR! She had such a sweet voice. A naturally sweet voice, not a forced sweet voice like so many others.
