Damn he's a really great voice actor and has one of the most unique and instantly recognizable voices. Hope it's nothing serious.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

You are a living legend for voicing the likes of Hattori, Holland, Hughes, Kinnosuke and Ladd — some of my favourite male characters in anime. Get well soon, Fujiwara-san.

I wonder if it's because the Fujimoto that'll appear is younger or if they had to replace his va permanently.

I'm hoping it's the first case.

That news made me so so happy :)

Since Spiderman Homecoming won't release until August 11 over here, I hope he's still in time for the dub. It would be sad if he had to give up on Tony Stark....

Otherwise I guess Shin-chan will be the 1st series he will resume work on.
