Its great to see that Nagai has inspired and befriended many voice actors and those who are involved in the anime industry. And these tributes say a lot about him.

And we've already had Ranma's (and Ataru's) tributes.

More tributes to Dr. Sado of the Arcadia, than to his better-known Takhashi characters, though.
Guess the Japanese perceptions of "good" classic anime go further back.
