Beloved voice actor Kirby Marrow who voice many beloved characters from Goku in the Ocean dub of the Majin Buu saga, Miroku in Inuyasha, and Trowa from Gundam Wing has died at the age of 47.

Aw man that sucks. I absolutely loved him as Miroku. All this just as the new Inuyasha series dropped. I can't imagine any other English voice actor in the role.

Why did he die?

No word just yet.

I only read Crab's Moon, which was a very mean-spirited, misanthropic book for being about killer crabs attacking a summer camp. Sad to hear about his passing, nonetheless.
