Today, there is a sad news, voice actor Keiji Fujiwara's company issued an obituary, saying that he died of cancer on April 12 at the age of 55, which is regrettable.
He has played many well-known roles, such as Hiroshi Nohara in "Crayon Shin-chan", Mas Hughes in "Full-Time Alchemist", Leo Li in the new version of the animation of "Full-time Hunter", etc., it can be said that his voiced roles have run through my entire childhood.
In 2016, he temporarily bid farewell to the industry due to illness and began to recuperate, but in 2017, the firm announced that he had returned from his illness and resumed his voice acting career. During that time, he starred in the roles of Inukin in "Backstreet Girl" and Green Bull in "One Piece", compared to the peak of his career, the role of dubbing was reduced a lot, everyone just thought that he needed to cultivate after illness, so he reduced his work, but he did not expect to see the news about him again when it was bad news.
When I first started watching "Crayon Xiaoxin", I watched the dubbed version of Chinese produced in Taiwan, and then I watched the movie version for the first time and heard the voice of the Xiaoxin family. Because the first time I saw Chinese, I naturally prefer to Chinese, but when I heard the Japanese version of the dubbing, the word "kind" naturally appeared in my mind, and the voices of several mouths of this family were very kind, as if they were old friends who had accompanied them for a long time.
If you want to say that his most impressive character is Hughes in Fullmetal Alchemist, everyone knows that Steel has two versions of the animation, and his voice is him. In the story, he loves his family and subordinates deeply, and is eventually killed because of his soft heart, although the appearance is not long, but it is impressive enough to influence the development of subsequent stories.
Among the anime works in which he participated in dubbing, "Crayon Shin- and One Piece" still have new works, and will only be replaced by other voice actors in the future.
In addition to the works mentioned above, he also voiced Tatsuya Kimura in First God Fist, Holland in Symphonic Psalms, Quanzo Hattori in Gintama, Keisei Tajin in Corpse Hime, Shiro Fujimoto in Blue Exorcist, Yuri Shakma Dimitrievich in Sunday in The Absence of God, Hak in The False Mask in The Passing Of Praise: The False Mask, and Daddy, the protagonist of Rough Snack War.
Things are uncertain, thanks to the joy and emotion that his voiced role has brought us, and I hope that all of you friends can take care of your body, no matter what, health is the first.
