Yuu Shimaka [Japanese VA of Goofy] has passed away at the age of 70

Thank you for your hard work and effort in the KH series. Rob wishes he didn't have to experience your performance in the series through YouTube for all these years. Every SE game (even remasters) has dual-audio except for KH. Rob hopes that one day that decision changes because the world needs to hear the voices of these great seiyuu.

RIP

RIP. I never really care about the Japanese audio in KH, but jap Goofy is one of the voices I can still hear in my head, so that’s an accomplishment in it of itself.

y r so many of the voice actors dying recently?

Mostly due to old age, though it's kinda interesting they've been passing away almost all at once. But that is life sometimes, I'm at least glad they lived a long life, though it's still sad to see them go.

He ran a private voice acting school named after one of my childhood Disney shows?  Rest in peace and thoughts and prayers to his family and friends!

Rest in Peace Yuu Shimaka-san! Thank you for all your work as one of the iconic Disney characters in the world! I'm very happy that you were able to live this long to voice Goofy in Kingdom Hearts 3, the final chapter of the Xehanort Saga. Thank you for everything!

I hope this is not the 2016 of disney actors passing away

RIP ??? I really liked his voice as Goofy.
