Maybe she shouldn't have gone around playing Ill Girl, ESPECIALLY ones from Key Visual Arts works, all the time...

Ah crap, Athena Glory was done by her too? Great, another my favorite work to be affected by her death...

Another work I liked a ton she voiced in was Chrno Crusade, in which she was none other than the heroine, Rosette Christopher.

She also did several video game roles aside from her Key Visual Novel works, such as Nanaly Fletch in Tales Of Destiny 2 and May Lee in The King Of Fighters; and now, she holds the sad record of being the first seiyuu in the Tokimeki Memorial franchise to die: she voiced Natsumi Fujii in Girl's Side 1.

RIP.

If there is an afterlife, I hope hers is great. Shindou Hikaru is one of my favorite voices in anime.

Rest in peace, Kawakami Tomoko.

What's tragic about this is that she's only just over 40 years old, at a time when she still has a lot to live for. Cancer can be a bitch.

RIP.

God Damn. with her death, THAT scene somehow becomes so much sadder.

I...I don't even know what to say. She will be sorely missed.
