I must admit that I've never heard of him before, but reading those news really saddens me. He was way too young to die. Cancer is so awful. RIP

Absolutely awful. Even more so when Gintama needs his voice for the final season. Cruel fate.

This is so saddening, I heard he was battling cancer for a while now but didn't expect him to pass away this soon...

I was just in the middle of watching HachiKuro, Shuuji is such a great character

Thank you Keiji for all your hard work!

This hits super close to home. His voice was so prolific, characteristic and enjoyable. His passing leaves a huge gap in the industry and makes me so damn sad. May he rest in peace. Many people will miss him a lot. :(

This absolutely breaks my heart. May he rest in peace. A talented man he was, he did an excellent job voicing Leorio and Esidisi. His voice was so unique that I’ll instantly recognise it the moment I heard it. Thank you for bringing so much joy into our lives with your roles. You’ll never be forgotten.

Saw this on Facebook and couldnt believe it. I liked his voice so much. He still gave voice to some characters after his break some years ago, and was as good as before, I would never think he was battling cancer.

It's only morning, but I think my day ended already, was one of my favorites. His characters were always lively and had a great presence. A great loss for the industry.

May his soul rest in peace, and I wish all comfort for his family and friends in this hard moment.

How long did he battle the cancer? Why weren't we informed about the illness?

Such sad news. At least now he's relieved from the pain and suffering.

Literally impossible not to recognize his voice, that's how unique it was. It is, indeed, a terrible day for rain.

He wasn't even that old either, but cancer doesn't care about your age. RIP to this legend.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

He had one of those easily recognizable voices that you smiled at when you hear him in a series. He had a lot of great roles both serious and funny. Damn, I'm so familiar with his roles this really hurts. Rest in peace, Fujiwara-san.

I don't think I've been so bummed by a voice actor's passing in a while. Leorio, Ladd Russo, Maes Hues, Esidisi, etc., etc... Man, we really lost an incredible talent! Cancer sucks... :(

Thanks for helping to bring so many wonderful characters to life, Fujiwara-san. You will be missed.
