Shūichirō Moriyama

Hiroo Ōtsuka (大塚 博夫), known by the stage name Shūichirō Moriyama (森山 周一郎), was a Japanese actor and voice actor. He was the official Japanese dub-over artist of actors Telly Savalas (with whom he met several times), Jean Gabin, Spencer Tracy, and Lino Ventura.

Overview
On 23 July 1999, he was paralysed in his right half by a cerebral infarction, but his body did not fully recover due to the lack of early treatment. Numbness in his limbs was also not easy to improve, with transient cerebral ischemic attacks causing his body to move involuntarily, and from the time of hospitalization until his death he needed continuous rehabilitation.

He died of pneumonia at 9:10 p.m. on February 8, 2021, aged 86, at a hospital in Saitama Prefecture.
