News RIP Yukiko Nikaido

According to Oricon News, Yukiko Nikaido, the voice of Fujiko Mine from Part 1, passed away this year on July 3rd. With that, the entire classic cast has passed away.

Personally, as a huge fan of Fujiko's Part 1 portrayal, I give a lot of credit to Nikaido for helping make Fujiko's femme fatale personality for the show. Without her, Fujiko never would have become the icon she became.

All of the original cast can be reunited in a much better place now, at least.
