RIP :(
small correction: he didn't voice Captain Kuro, he voice a random Kuro crewmember. Cap. Kuro himself is voiced by the veteran Kouichi Hashimoto.

Why him?! I loved his voice as Sima Yi, especially his laugh when doing his Musou or when he says "You fools".
And his voice for Kabuto was almost identical to the original one. He also voiced Riderman in the PS2 Game : Kamen Rider Seigi no Keifu.
Way to young to die... Rest in Peace, Mr. Takeshita.
