they're all passing away... Goshou should hurry up with the series.

R.I.P.

Episode 725 is the last episode with his voice... :(
It isn't subbed yet but I want to hear his voice one last time.

Hmm... I hope Gosho will give the characters some sort of special cases then... It's quite sad to see them leave now. And if I remember right last case with Jirokichi was the aquarium Kid case. 2 dying hopefully wakes him up a little, he has so many characters that even if he's not planning on ending the series he could give them all one special case, in a way that it doesn't stop the next one from being special, I guess.

Spoiler: Possible spoiler
Actually...that was the last one he appeared in that was animated. The latest Kid case won't be animated for months. They'll have plenty of time to find a replacement.
