Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Some of her best-known character roles: Chiriko, Itsuki, Kasuga Nozomi, Motomiya Akane, Takakura Karin, Nanaly Fletch, Shindou Hikaru, Sui-Feng, and Utena.

Tomoko Kawakami was one of the versatile seiyuu who boomed in the 90's. Her voice range was impressive - she could voice boys, cute girls or even super tough girls. She also might have been a precursor to Hitomi Nabatame in terms of 'Les Yay seiyuu', though Tomoko didn't seem to be Les Yay in real life. Instead, she tended to voice characters who may have some Les Yay tendencies with other characters.

She had been sick with ovarian cancer since 2008; some of her roles got replaced by other seiyuu in the meantime. Heartbreakingly, she lost the battle on June 9th, 2011.
