R.I.P Chikao Ohtsuka
Man... I wonder who's gonna take his place when they have to voice Oldnort in KHIII. 
I'm always hoping for the KH official twitter to update, but now I wish it hadn't :C How sad...
Yeah :c The world lost a talented man, for sure.
First English Eggman dies way back when, and now Japanese Eggman. Such a damn shame. At least Sonic still has Mike Pollock.

If I had to choose Hidekatsu Shibata has a similar voice to Chikao Ohtsuka.

A shame to lose such a great talent with a powerful voice such as his. I hope his son and the rest of the family are taking this the best they can, though it is not easy. Listening to some of his work now and damn, this is a loss for the industry.

Aww man... He was Dr. Weil in the Mega Man Zero series too.
Definitely one of the best Japanese VAs who ever lived. He had one of the most iconic evil laughs in gaming. What's truly sad though is his last performance was in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric. What a way to go.

That's so terrible. Makes you realize, it's sad. But it happens. And that's another reason why Nomura needs to hurry and finish making the third. What happens to another actor? Or someone helping make the game...
The first thing I thought of when I read this was that something happened to Leonard Nimoy. I wasn't thinking of the japanese voice. I almost dropped my tablet thinking that Xehanort had no voice! But it's still so sad. RIP...

I really hope so, too. We'll be able to tell how far they were in the development if his voice actor changes any time during KH3.
What? Did something happen to Bill Farmer?

Read all about the rumor and join in the discussion lol
That's such a shame and a terrible loss. However, I guess he will live on forever in the characters he voiced. Here to keeping his memory alive.
i wonder if they will do any special tributes for him in future games he was working on.

Hmmm... Yeah, I never saw that. Can't I would've believed it if I read it. The actors get confused on which game they're doing sometimes. It's OK. But I had no idea what you guys were talking about when you mentioned Bill Farmer on here! Sorry about that.
