I loved her as Utena. The surgery note concerns me as well. Here's to a speedy recovery.

What the hell. The moment you saw "hospitalized" you thought "death?"

The hell's the matter wif joo? Anime dazed


I can't speak for him, but I certainly did. For me, the shock of Bernie Mac's death form pneumonia hasn't worn off completely.

Yeah, I guess we are kinda morbid.

I actually starting watching Utena this summer. It's in English ('cause it was On Demand), so I haven't been able to hear her original voice. Same with Hikago(which I've read/watched a little bit of) but I do hope she gets well soon!

I didn't mean it that way. I was happy that it wasn't something fatal or something.

I got to spend a little time with Kawakami-san a few years ago. We couldn't understand each other without a translator, but she was still one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met. I hope her recovery is swift and that she finds some relief.

Because of the surgery, Kawakami won't be voicing Kaoru in the second Ikoku Irokoi Romantan OVA. Sad Don't know who will be replacing her yet but it'll supposedly be another seiyuu that author Yamane Ayano likes.
