Well, at least he lived long and died because of old age. Also didn't died because of overwork.
Anyway R.I.P. to him it's "a well deserve" rest from this shitty world and he wont suffer anymore.

Actually, most best VAs nowadays only voiced supporting roles.

I mean he didn't got any on his entire career.

By what i saw about him, he's a legend... Made one of the most iconic caracters that i like, Aramaki from GiTS. It's very sad.
Rest in peace.

Definitely a legend in my book, quality body of work, and I am sure he had a quality life. Condolences, but I'd celebrate this prolific person.
