Both him and Haruko Kitahama within weeks of each other. Sad news. I didn’t know much of his work, but RIP regardless. Before I knew better, I thought he was related to Hiroshi Naka before the new ‘10s. Rest peacefully, old guard. You made your mark.

I could say the same here. Damn, 2 death announcements on ANN, really sad and unfortunate. RIP to both of the seiyuus.

Curiously enough, he also voiced Jenner, the main villain, in the Japanese dub of The Secret of NIMH.

If he really was 96, then he was actually born in 1927.
