We just lost another legend 🕊️ Veteran voice actor Toto Warsito has passed away, leaving behind an extraordinary range of performances across some of today’s biggest anime franchises. As one of the familiar voices of the Indonesian dubbing industry, Warsito helped bring internationally beloved anime and animation closer to local audiences, lending his voice to heroes, villains, warriors, gods, and mentors across wildly different worlds. Some of his memorable roles included: • Muzan Kibutsuji — Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba • Kagaya Ubuyashiki — Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba • Henry Henderson — Spy × Family • Eisen — Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End • Taro / Tarou — Dandadan • Diablo — That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime • Veldora Tempest — That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime • Ruijerd Superdia — Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation • Atomic Samurai / Kamikaze — One-Punch Man • Kite — Hunter × Hunter • Tamotsu Zakurogi — Failure Frame Perhaps most strikingly, Warsito voiced both Muzan Kibutsuji and Kagaya Ubuyashiki for the Indonesian dub, two characters standing on completely opposite sides of Demon Slayer’s central conflict. That contrast alone speaks to the range he brought behind the microphone. Rest in paradise, Toto Warsito. The voice behind so many unforgettable characters will continue living every time fans return to the stories he helped bring to life. 🕊️

Anime just lost a legend whose work quietly connected generations of fans. 🕊️ Veteran animator, character designer and animation director Kenichiro Katsura has passed away at 59 while undergoing treatment for an illness. Across more than four decades, Katsura worked on everything from classic anime to modern hits, sometimes designing entire casts and other times helping bring individual scenes to life. Some of his notable works included: - Macross 7 — character design / animation direction - Knight’s & Magic — character design / chief animation director - That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime — chief animation director - SYNDUALITY Noir — character design / chief animation director - Ranma ½ — key animation - Magic Knight Rayearth — key animation - Date A Live II — key animation - Blue Lock Season 2 — key animation - Gintama: The Movie 2026 – Yoshiwara in Flames — animation director - The Fruit of Grisaia — chief animation director Anime and many more! From Ranma ½ and Macross 7 to Blue Lock and Slime, Katsura’s career became a bridge between different eras of anime. His family’s final request was beautifully fitting: remember the characters and drawings you loved, and someday watch his work again. The animator is gone, but thousands of frames carrying his hand will keep moving. Rest in peace, Kenichiro Katsura. 🤍
