Atsuko Tanaka (Caster/Medea voice actress) passed away

[STHX]

Announced by her son on twitter: https://x.com/HikaruTanaka_va/status/1825839477857947649

Although her more iconic role is Major Kusanagi, she voiced Medea in all of her appearances (and many more roles, a single post wouldn't be able to list them all)
May she rest in peace

Just saw a few minutes ago... RIP.

RIP. Absolutely saddening news and she will be missed dearly. Time to go be extra nice to Caster in HA when the time comes.

The sense of loss just keeps getting deeper.

I was literally just playing through the HF route and got to the bit where Caster dies and then switched off for the night and then hear this horrible news... just the timing itself is eerie

Really depressing, she was a great actress. Sad that nobody even knew she had a son until her passing (Japanese industry for you).

RIP Atsuko

Rip to the realest witch out there.

When I found out about it yesterday, it was basically the first thing I learned as soon as I opened my phone. Tragic. May she rest in peace.

She mentioned having a son before a few times, but we didn't know that her son was also an aspiring voice actor who would make his debut only last year. I pray for Hikaru's success. It's hard for me but it must be incalculably harder for him. He needs love and support.
