Yoshio Nagahori (長堀 芳夫 Nagahori Yoshio), better known under his stage name Daisuke Gori (郷里 大輔 Gōri Daisuke), was a Japanese voice actor, narrator and actor.
Death[]
According to fellow voice actors, Gōri was diagnosed with diabetes mellitus a few years prior to his death and his vision was affected by retinal detachment as a result of the disease. He complained to coworkers, "I can't read the scripts. I can't do my job like I'd like to." (台本が読めない. 思うように仕事ができない Daihon ga yome nai. Omou yōni shigoto ga deki nai). During an Anpanman recording session in late 2009, a depressed-sounding Gōri told his close friend voice actor Kazuhiko Inoue, "I've grown old."
On January 17, 2010 at approximately 3:00 P.M., Gōri was found lying on his stomach with blood dripping from his wrists in the middle of a Nakano, Tokyo street by a passerby, who then notified the police. Authorities from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Nakano station discovered a utility knife under his body as well as a suicide note, with the words "I'm sorry" (ごめんね Gomen ne) and "Thank you" (ありがとう Arigatō) scrawled on it, addressed to his family in his pants pocket. Gōri's death was then ruled a suicide; he was three weeks short of his 58th birthday.
