I hate how wikipedia's article has part about her passing away peacefully and then has galls to mention that it was cancer-related failure of multiple organs. That's not peaceful passing away...

https://youtu.be/AMGXZRUzk5A This is from after she came back from retirement and so it's kind of weaker than when she was younger and with better health. She was kind of VA with a lot of strength in her voice.
Masters has different VA for her, btw.

She was also a damn good singer in her younger days. I'm pretty sure when recordings for Pokemon Journeys were happening, she already knew that she's on borrowed time.

Considering Japan's stance on replacing VAs, will they retire anime Cynthia? Although I guess Cynthia was already effectively retired because the ashnime has ended.

thats only for the ultra popular MC VAs, like Goku, Luffy, Ash etc. Since they're too iconic after decades
They have no problem recasting characters with smaller roles
One Piece anime has had a bunch of VA recastings

There is no such thing and only happens when a character wouldn't be missed anyway. They respect the original actors a lot but they still replace them if a character needs new lones for a new work.

The OG Jap announcer died during SM season and they replaced him with Incineroar's VA, IIRC.

I mean, I don't think that we will be going back to Sinnoh in the nearest future. Also, considering how Tomo Sakurai died and time frame of all events, I think that theory about her knowing damn well that she's dying before she was recording Journeys is pretty plausible. Cancer is not quick death, after all.

With this in mind I think that Cynthia being so important character in M8 became less annoying? Writers genuinely wanted to give last hurra to the dying star.

Jesus, what a horrible way to go.
Despite it being less than stellar, at the very least, they kind of finished Cynthia's storyline in the anime. I hope she was happy with that.
Rest in peace.

She was good but she didn't seem to do that much besides Shirona. The second main antangonist's sister from Yugioh GX is the only other character I know. You would think she would get a role in a battle shonen or something since she started so early.

They will retire her if she marries someone off-screen. I can see Cynthia marry a rich girl or her close rival/friend.

She was more active in 80s and 90s but even later she appeared in Shakugan No Shana, Im@S: Xenoglossia and My-Otome. I suppose for people that are too young it may be difficult to remember her because in 2016 she retired and came back in 2019 and since then had few minor roles here and there.
She was also more of an idol singer that took voice acting as continuation of her work.

Anyway - cancer is a bitch and pancreatic cancer is especially sneaky. Anons please remember to get your pancreas checked from time to time.

How the fuck Cynthia being an important character in the M8 annoying? She was by far and wide the Champion who interacted with Ash the most and had the most appearances in the anime. She's the only one there who made sense to be there outside having to check the Champion box like Steven or Iris. Because her fighting Ash actually meant something.
If anything she got fucked over despite all the build-up she got in the past by having her be second place instead of the final boss and Ash and Cynthia relationship becoming second fiddle to Leon.
