I’ve had the pleasure of working with Wakana Yamazaki on several occasions in the Sailor Moon series, but her role as Koan, one of the four Spectre Sisters in R, left a strong impression on me. She was a very loyal and kind person. I’m saddened by her passing. Thank you for everything. May she rest in peace.

I believed she’d recover and come back to us healthy and strong…
Wakana-chan was the same age as me…
Our birthdays were also close…
I sent her a LINE message,
and it stayed unread… so I was worried, but…
I never imagined… it would be over…
It’s too soon…
But please wait for me on the other side.
For now, I just hope… she rests in peace…

Ran-nee-chan, Ran-nee-chan…
Thank you, Wakana Yamazaki, for bringing the adorable and graceful strong Ran-nee-chan to life.
I pray from the bottom of my heart for your eternal rest.

I looked up to the strong, honest, and kind Ran-chan ever since I was little.
Then there’s Wakana Yamazaki, whom I’ve had the pleasure of meeting several times through work. I remember being awed when she walked into the green room with a beaming smile; the atmosphere instantly brightened, and I thought to myself, “She’s just like Ran-chan…!”

Wakana-san
You’ve always been a sempai I deeply respect. You were like an older sister to me.
Even now, when I read the script, I can still hear your voice.
I was so happy to be able to call you Otaka-oba-chan as Oshino-chan.
“You know, I’ll never forget you.”
Please rest in peace.
I pray from the bottom of my heart you find eternal rest.

I can’t believe it. I don’t even know how to put it into words… [Wakana Yamazaki] was so warm, thoughtful, and kind to everyone, yet her voice and acting had such depth.

Wakana Yamazaki.
When I was an assistant director, we worked together for a year when you voiced Mother Melzard in B-Fighter Kabuto.
You were such a kind and wonderful person and since the protagonist, Kouhei Toba, was a high school student, I would often ask you to play background characters in the school scenes.
I am deeply grateful for everything you did for me.
I offer my sincere condolences.
