Even wikipedia hasn't updated the entry on her. They're usually fast about things like that too.

RIP.

I'm sure you could edit the English wiki to add this news and the source just cited above.

R.I.P Emi Ito.

Even though I don't really know the Peanuts outside of the Godzilla and Mothra movies, they always made a big impact on me and were perhaps the most memorable non-monster characters in the series.

How sad to hear this.

I only knew her in kaiju films as well, but her voice will always be remembered. She and her sister were lovely singers.

It was on Youtube at one point, but I can't seem to find it.

RIP. Good memories of watching MvsG and hearing them sing come to mind.
Best of wishes for her family.

Very sad. And I just watched MOTHRA the other day, too... R.I.P. Ms. Ito.
I'm back? I guess. Haven't posted here in a loooooong time.
