Unable to understand Japanese, we would have watched the anime – which aired for 2 decades – with Mandarin dubbing.

May she live on through the shows that she voiced in

MS News would like to extend our condolences to friends and family of the late Jiang.

While Jiang may no longer be with us, we have no doubts that her legacy will live on through the numerous animes that she lent her voice to, throughout her long career.
