Aoni Production announced on Friday that voice actress Toshiko Fujita passed away from invasive breast cancer on Friday. She was 68. Husky and Polly Buckets (Dr. Slump minor character) from Dragon Ball was one of many roles she played https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2 ... ay/.141413

This is so sad. She was supposed to be Big Mom In One Piece, but got replaced. Now we know why. RIP.

This forum is so over-dramatic that it's not even funny.

Just saw about this earlier. :cry: I found out about her being Polly Buckets, but somehow missed about her being Hasky as well. For me though, she'll always be the original Taichi in Digimon. Godspeed.

I feel like it’s a tad disrespectful to refer to a real life person by one fictional character they voiced.

We all mourn in our own ways. What's important is that the person is honoured, and their work continues to be appreciated.
The point of Dragon Ball is to enjoy it. Never lose sight of that.
