本日早朝、日も出てない時間に滝沢久美子さんの訃報を知りました。

子供の頃は「銀河漂流バイファム」で
大人の女性ケイトさんと漂流クルー最年少組のルチーナの声を
同じ人がやってるとは信じられませんでした。

「ふしぎの海のナディア」でのグランディスは悪党立場なのにお人好し。
敵対してたはずの主人公らの唯一の理解者で相談役。
サンソン・ハンソンから「姐さんだけは生き残って欲しい」と
鉄火場突入直前に気絶させられ置いてかれるほど慕われてて。
そんな２人が絶体絶命の危機から生還した際には
泣きながらビンタ一発で済ませる人情家。
大好きでした。

彼女の台詞「グッバイ。アディオス。さようなら。」は
ずっと忘れられない言葉になると思います。
長い間本当にお疲れさまでした。おやすみなさい。

Early this morning, before the sun had risen, I learned of Takizawa Kumiko's passing.

When I was a kid she was in "Ginga Hyouryuu Vifam". I couldn't believe that the same person was voicing both the adult woman Kate-san, and also Luchina Plessette the youngest member of the adrift crew.

In "Fushigi no Umi no Nadia, Grandis is a good-natured person despite initially being cast as the villain. She was the only one to understand, support, and advise the protagonists even though she was supposed to be their enemy.

Sanson and Hanson admired her so much that they even knocked her unconscious and left her behind before entering the fray, saying to her "We just want you to survive, ma'am."

When the two survived the desperate situation, she just gave them a single slap and then became overcome with emotion and cried.

I loved that.

Her line: "Goodbye. Adios. Sayonara." are words that I don't think I will ever forget.

Thank you so much for your hard work for so long. Rest well.

Takizawa Kumiko was Grandis' voice actress. She passed away on June 11th 2022.
