Remembering Castmembers No Longer with us. (Any language)

[Ripper 30]

Gouri Daisuke. The legend. Mr.Satan doesn't feel like Mr.Satan without him. There are many other roles of his that I liked. He is a huge loss to anime.

Miya'uchi Kouhei and Suzuoki Hirotaka have already been mentioned. Both of them were fantastic as Kame-Sen'nin and Tenshinhan respectively. Shame, both characters sound terrible in this post revival era. Again, they were very crucial to the characters and it doesn't work without them.
Suzuoki's Saitou Hajime performance though was out of this fucking world. My favorite performance of his. And, that's just one of his many great performances. Another big loss, not just to Dragon Ball, but anime as a whole.

Utsumi Kenji. Another legend. From Shenlong to the hilarious Tenka'ichi Budoukai announcer and Reacoom to the even more hilarious Senbei from Dr.Slump. This guy was something else. He was also a big name in the industry. My favorite performance of his though was Braiking Boss from Casshern Sins and Ooba from Kemonozume. He was great in performing as villains as well. A very versatile actor and a voice which I immediately recognized.

Ootsuka Chikao. Dr. Eggman is his most famous role and he was great. Oh, and his Tao Pai-pai performance was fucking awesome just like the character itself.

Aono Takeshi. Piccolo Daimaou sama!!! And, Murasaki and God. His range was incredible. Shiro from Uchuu Senkan Yamato was another memorable role of his.

Ichirou Nagai. Karin and Tsuru-Sen'nin's seiyuu. I'm not that familiar with his other roles, but he was quite a big name as well.

Nishio Toku. Mr. Popo's voice was quite unique, especially his dialogue delivery. Now, it doesn't feel like that.

Takiguchi Junpei. Baba's seiyuu.

The original cast of Dragon Ball consisted mostly of experienced and fantastic actors. It is sad that a lot of them have passed away or are very old now. Still, they have all established themselves pretty good and I will always remember them.

Nice post, I was also going to mention most of these but I also, think that neither of their recast voices were able to match epicness of the original voices.

It could have been worse with Roshi, we could have been stuck with his VA from path to power, his Kamehameha sounded pathetic compared to the original and his anime replacement.

Great post, although I disagree that Midorikawa sounds terrible as Tenshinhan. He's no Suzuoki, but he's serviceable.

Man his Voice Actor in DBGT was the worst who sounded like a Drunk Old man everytime. Also, at times sounded exactly like Junpei's Baba.

Today marks 8 years since the sad departure of Zeyad Errafae'ie (Al-Refai if you're having trouble pronouncing it) who was the first voice of adult Goku in the Arabic dub of Dragon Ball Z. Died of a car crash at age 40.

[Cure Dragon 255]

Oh no! Despite the major censorship that usually comes with it. I LOVE ARABIC DUBS.

So sad to hear this.

I know its not Dragon Ball. But this dubbed Digimon song is amazing.
