It is a sad day for Sailor Moon fans as we learn that Emi Shinohara, who provided the voice of Makoto Kino, Sailor Jupiter, in the original Sailor Moon anime, has died. She was undergoing treatment for an illness when she passed away.
Besides playing Sailor Jupiter Emi Shinohara also voiced two monsters in the first seasons, Kyurene in episode 6 and Jumeau in episode 18. As an experienced voice actor she also appeared in many other anime series such as B-ko in Project A-ko and Kushina Uzumaki, Naruto’s mother from Naruto.
She will be missed profoundly by Sailor Moon fans around the world.
