Kozo Shioya, best known for voicing Majin Buu in the Dragon Ball Z, has died.

https://news.livedoor.com/article/detail/30461922/
>>
RIP Fatman
>>
Buu was my favorite Dragon Ball villain when I was a kid
>>
He passed away on January 20th due to a cerebral hemorrhage. Aoni Production made the announcement today.

He was 70 years old.
>>
Seeing his work, he had a bunch of fat characters. I saw Slam Dunk in Japanese years ago so I remember Sakuragi's fat friend. Also he did Fatman in Metal Gear Solid 2.

Rest in peace sweet prince. Enjoy the candies on heaven.

Nobuyuki Hiyama's words on Kozo Shioya's passing.
"I just heard the news of the passing of Kozo Shioya.
Even though we were with different agencies, he was a senior who took care of me in all kinds of ways ever since my debut days.
My most vivid memory is, of course,
「The King of Braves GaoGaiGar」
That production truly was an exhausting, wonderful experience. Thank you for everything."
>>
>>285633668
Man, if Dragonball keeps running forever like a Marvel property then I guess by the time I'm greying and old too everyone in the cast would've gone and replaced.
>>
>>285634849
They're mainly older people that likely have a history of smoking and drinking. Not exactly hard to figure out.

This was actually a very common response years ago when a VA who voiced nothing but minor roles died. Maybe if you would have lurked more instead of trying to turn this board into your reddit hugbox such flippant posts wouldn't bother you so much.
