Pat Payne Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Hey, guys, I don't know if anyone's caught this yet, but Hirotaka Suzuoki died on the 6th in Japan of lung cancer. He's definetly going to be missed. News is at ANN. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Aw, no way! Man he had such a distinctive voice and could play real cool and badass characters like Saito Hajime in RK and Shiryu from Saint Seiya. That sucks hard. Quote
Keith Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 (edited) That makes at least 2 Gundam 0079 cast members who've died relatively young of cancer. Makes you wonder if there was something in the studio.... Apparently he was Yellow in Mospeada too. What a great range of characters. Edited August 11, 2006 by Keith Quote
F-ZeroOne Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 That sucks. As to "something in the studio", probably cigarette smoke. Quote

azrael Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Here's a list of his appearences: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encycloped...ople.php?id=699 He will be missed. Quote
Beltane70 Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 I had no idea Hirotaka Suzuoki was so prolific. This is definitely a great loss to the anime world. That makes at least 2 Gundam 0079 cast members who've died relatively young of cancer. Who was the other? Quote
Roy Focker Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 One who did Sayla which also did the voice of Grepunich (spelling) if I'm current. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted August 12, 2006 Posted August 12, 2006 Gepelnitch also did the voice of Kanuka Clancy in Patlabor, and Ran for a bit in Urusei Yatsura. Quote
1st Border Red Devil Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) Suzuoki was also the Zor Lord Des in Southern Cross. Edited August 16, 2006 by 1st Border Red Devil Quote

Lord of Tetris Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 *BLINK* Now THIS was a depressing thread. I had already known about Suzuoki's death by the time I decided to post in this board, but Sayle's dead too? Jeez... Quote
