We have sadly learned of the death of another tokusatsu veteran.
Actor Keiji Fujiwara -best known as the voice of Cheeda Nick in Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters & also the voice of the Jackpot Striker in Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger EN FILM– passed away on April 12 2020 due to cancer.
Fujiwara’s resume included an extensive history in the anime world & was famous as the Japanese dub voice for Tony Stark in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Our thoughts are with Keiji Fujiwaras’ friends & family in this trying time.
I admit, I am a little sad here. I liked Go-Busters and Cheeda Nick was such a good character.
Best Wishes to his family!

Damn, he was Maes Hughes too...? This is hitting my sore spots. Sad to see
Truly sad to hear this. And he was only 55 years old. While us in the toku fandom remember him as Cheeda Nick and Jackpot Striker, he was most popular as Shin-chan's dad, Hiroshi Nohara, and recently THE voice of Tony Stark/Iron Man ever since the MCU was a thing. So quite the loss for Japan indeed. RIP.
Also Reno and Ardyn in the Final Fantasy series. Wonder who's going to play Reno when the next game in the Remake comes out.
Love him 3000. RIP.
RIP.
Just remembered: he also voiced Father Fujimoto in Blue Exorcist.
You know, part of me kinda hopes RDJ would give an honor to him since he's his official Japanese voice actor.
RIP Keiji T_T
