That is quite a list of strong dubs in the industry. Mostly.

While I've not heard every dub listed, I've heard a lot and nearly all were great, her contributions will be missed. RIP.

Her contributions to the industry, especially from the days more dubs were not in-house ones will be missed.

It's not a bad show, it's actually decent, and has some pretty cool cuts. The dub is also quite good for it, it's how I first viewed the series a few years ago.

Indeed, it’s not a bad show, at least from what I remember watching years ago. The problem was Geneon paid exorbitant fees to license this show - as much as Funimation paid for Fullmetal Alchemist - and sales were abysmal.

My condolences to Ms. Tsukamoto’s family. Her contributions to helping bring anime to a wider audience with the dubs she produced are immeasurable. The fact that many, if not most of them are considered good quality dubs to this day is a bonus.

I remember how that show getting slammed was an ANNCast running joke way back when. RIP to Hiroe-san.

So she worked on several anime that is familiar to millennials fans who started to watched anime in early-mid 2000's (& beyond). I recognize some of the titles she worked on. It's very sad to see her passed away.

RIP, you will be missed!!! Sad

Looks like she worked not only on shows I watched, but also on things I am yet to see. Not naming any big shows, Adventures of the Mini Goddess is one of the few anime comedies that I actually found funny (watched the first episode), and the voice acting sold the script. It is now on my "buy later" list.
