Meowth's 2nd dub VA passed on~

4Kids Entertainment has confirmed that voice actress Madeleine "Maddie" Blaustein has passed away. She was 48. Blaustein dubbed various anime characters under several stage names, but is arguably best known for voicing Meowth in hundreds of episodes during the Pokémon television anime series' first run. She later played Solomon Moto in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters and Yu-Gi-Oh! Capsule Monsters. She also played roles in Hi no Tori, The Gokusen, Dinosaur King, Sonic X, and dozens of other productions.
Always sad and kind of strange to see a character outlive their actor. Even if she wasn't currently playing that role. Her take on Meowth pretty much defined the character and all. Guess I'll pop in an Orange Island dvd and watch Meowth Rules outta respect.

I saw this on Serebii... I was actually kind of stunned. It's actually pretty depressing, she was still pretty young. It's really...weird. Pokemon VA's dying? It's really odd.

RIP.
