Voiced Sanada Jū Yūshi, Supernatural , Tommy Lee Jones in films & Boss Coffee ads

Toshio Furukawa reported on Friday that fellow voice actor Takashi Taniguchi passed away. Taniguchi's agency, Office Osawa, conveyed the news to Furukawa.

Taniguchi played various anime roles such as Montblanc Cricket in One Piece, Kōichi Komoda in Bokurano, Chéng Yù in Sōten Kōro, and Sanada Awano-kami Masayuki in Shinshaku Sengoku Eiyū Densetsu - Sanada Jū Yūshi The Animation. However, more people have heard his voice in the Japanese dubbing of foreign films. He dubbed over Tommy Lee Jones in several films, which led to him also voicing "Alien Jones" in the famous Boss Coffee commercials.
