Unsho Ishizuka passed away today at the age of 67 from Esophageal cancer,

His voice work in Japan was extensive and varied from anime to video games to narration to redubbing foreign movies, the image above is just a small example of his work

Odds are if you’ve watched subbed anime, you’ve probably heard his voice once or twice

He also gave voices to many of the pokemon in Japanese dub besides just playing professor oak and he will be difficult to replace for that series
