NOOOO, Mr. Satan and Jimbei!

[Majin_Megabyte]

RIP... Mr. Satan, the man who defeated Cell....

[Katsumara]

Hate to bring this into such a sad subject, but reports are that it may have been suicide. :/

They say that he was found with blood dripping down his arm and that there was a knife or something sharp near the scene as well.

[PC!]

Dang. I thought he made a great Mr. Satan. May he rest in peace.

[Dragonpiece]

He was the best, no could replace this man. I really feel sad he died, do you guys think he was really sad because the va the passed before him just days ago?

[Daxdiv]

Damn, I actually like this guy. He was a pretty good Mr. Satan/Hercule, Jimbei and Robin Mask, I'm very curious as to whom is going to replace him. May he rest in peace.

[Kazuya Prower]

He also voiced Gyuumao (Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Kai), Enma-Daioh (Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, Dragon Ball Kai), Umigame (Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT), King Cold (Dragon Ball Z), Dorry (One Piece), Rockstar (One Piece) and Heihachi Mishima (Tekken series since Tekken 3).

R.I.P. Daisuke Gouri, you were one of the best japanese voice actors out there.

[Zeonic Freak]

Holy Crap, this guy is huge.

Genma from Ninja Scroll, Dozel Zabi from Gundam, Bass from DOA game series, the list goes on...

So the police are just suspecting suicide or is it really comfirmed?

[Juu-kuchi]

Dozle Zabi AND Heihachi?

Damn. RIP.

[GingaDaiuchuu]

So many great roles in both the Dragon Ball and One Piece franchises. Rest in peace, sir, for you will be missed.

[Tomato Surprise]

Rest in peace, tamer of Buu.

I wonder if they'll replace him for future DBZ video games, or if they'll just recycle sound clips from past games.

Damn it.

More immediately, he's in Dragon Ball Kai as Enma Daiou, Gyuumao, and Porunga, and they'll definitely need to find replacements for those roles (plus there's his future roles and the roles in One Piece).

[HellCat]

It's always sad when someone seemingly decides suicide is their best option

We'll mass produce the Big Zam in your honour.

This is just incomprehensible. You can't just recast Mr. Satan. There's no replacement for Daisuke Gôri in anything he has ever done, espicially in Dragon Ball. I'm hoping that the character is retired from games and animation because the role simply isn't the same without him.


God, I'm disgusted.

Won't happen. Standard practice is to higher a sound alike generally.

Likely, although finding a sound-a-like is going to be a bit difficult when it comes to Gôri.


God, this sucks...

[Sketch]

The thought suddenly occurred to me that Mr. Satan wasn't playable in the most recent Dragonball fighting game was he?

Rest in peace Gouri-sama.

[Mr. Anime]

The saddest thing is, he still had so much left to do such all that cool stuff Jimbei did in the manga that has yet to be animated. Now the chace is gone forever....

[Ryusuke]

Rest in peace Daisuke.
