Hikaru Midorikawa, retiring?
No! That can't happen! What if Sunrise wants to make an anime adaptation of Gundam Wing: Frozen Teardrop? Who's gonna be Heero? Damn, even Android 16 and Marth won't sound the same anymore.
Kotono Mitsuishi - known among DOA fans as the voice of Christie - has officially announced her retirement from voice acting as the iconic Sailor Moon after 31 years.
Not as much of a bummer as the asking price. Capcom needs to walk this back, lest they face the same scrutiny they did with SF x Tekken prior to release.
A.K.I. looks like she could've been the new recurring main antagonist of the Resident Evil series or someone tied to Kurow Kirishima from Rival Schools... the latter appears to be more plausible and gives SF a better connection to Rival Schools than just Sakura.
That would be... unfortunate.
Considering she put the fear of God in Eddy Gordo - of all people - during dance lessons, she had potential to be retconned as a serial killing weeb.
For all the good that'll do Shaheen... that guy stays invisible in the roster.
Chloe's not in the roster either, but I suspect Bandai Namco has other plans for her... hopefully as a horror movie icon.
