She was splendid as Ranko´s voice in Ace wo nerae, the best tennis anime to date, she provided the voice of a memorable characters, no doubt.

Shame, she was such a good voice actress with plenty of years ahead of her. Rest in peace, my best wishes to her family.

Yes, something out of order has happened; otherwise she could easily live for another twenty years.

Was just playing Tales of Rebirth, where Ohtsuka plays a main villain. I can't imagine his pain, and I see that she played quite a few major roles throughout her life. Although I don't think I ever crossed one of her works, she will be remembered for her service to the anime industry.

I nearly died from sepsis several years back and all I can think is damn, that's not a fun thing to deal with nor would it be a fun way to go. I feel sorry for her for having to experience it and I feel sorry for her loved ones for their loss.
