RIP. Thanks for having an impact on our child/adulthood.

Also, I remember a member here, GrayArchon, posting this in a Fairy Tail article earlier this week.

When he's narrating, it's just magical.
I really love listening to him.
RIP, Bob. Sad

Such a shame to hear. He was a very talented man with a golden voice. And that voice really enriched the story of Fairy Tail.

Rest in peace, Mr. Magruder, and thank you for narrating Fairy Tail.

He is finally free now. He doesn't have to narrate this XXXX anymore. Good for him.

That's not a very nice remark to make.

I was watching the anime a couple days before I heard this news. Very sad.

RIP Mr. Magruder! I really enjoyed your narrative of Fairy Tail, it's a shame that we won't have a chance to hear you in the 2014 anime.

I was also really hoping we could have heard him more as Igneel, especially since spoiler[ he recently came out of hiding in the manga. ] Sad

Very sad when a good actor's time comes.

Fairy Tail's Narration was perfect. Gave a very fairytale feel to the show.... Going to be really hard to get someone to fill his roll.

RIP

His narration was spot-on. He sounded like a grandfather telling a much-loved story. RIP
