As some of you may know, earlier this week Mike McFarland, the English voice of Master Roshi, underwent emergency surgery to remove a brain tumor. The procedure was successful, and Mike’s spirits are high as he sets out on the road to recovery. But in the meantime he’ll need a little help from us.

Proceeds will go toward hiring a live-in medical assistant for as long as necessary to help get this legend back on his feet.

Mike’s been an integral part of this industry for decades, not just breathing life into beloved characters like Master Roshi, Buggy, and Jean Kirstein, but directing landmark dubs such as the Full Metal Alchemist franchise, Tokyo Ghoul, and Attack on Titan. Those who know him best count Mike among the sweetest, funniest, most compassionate humans on the planet; always quick to lend a hand, give sage advice, advocate for the underdog or share in an adventure.

He’s given a lot of himself over the years, quietly and asking for nothing in return. It’s time for us to give some of that back.

Please consider donating. Every little bit helps. And by all means, get the word out!

Thank you!
