Remembering Tomoyuki Dan, The Weather Dopant

Though we've had a lot of good news in the last couple days unfortunately we have some bad news today. Tomoyuki Dan, most famously known to tokusatsu fans for his role as the Weather Dopant/Shinkuro Isaka on Kamen Rider W, has passed away from an aortic dissection. He passed away in his home on the evening of October 10th, he was 50 years old.

Fans may also recognize Tomoyuki for his work voicing over Christian Bale's Batman character in the Japanese releases of the Dark Knight Trilogy, or for his roles in such anime as Victory Gundam, Naruto Shipuuden, or Ghost in The Shell, as well as his long list of other anime voice acting credits. As with any toku alum he will be missed.

Oh no!

Rest in Peace, sir. You were a hell of a villain.

Oh, that's unfortunate. I loved him in Double...
EDIT: Oh shit, he was Kisame in Naruto? Damn. That was one of the few voices I really liked. Such a terrible loss.

May he rest in peace. My condolences to friends and family.

He was very talented, and one of the most memorable characters in W, thank you for everything.

My condolences to his family.

Aw, this is so sad ;_; He was such a talent.
Condolences to his family and friends.

May he rest in peace.

Godspeed.

Wow, that's a bummer. He wasn't that old, even.

R.I.P. Great villian and he was Japans Batman? I need to find those now.
