Maddie Blaustein, 4Kids VA for Meowth, dies at 48

I didn't see that, but they did the same thing at the end of today's repeat of Dinosaur King. I thought that it was sweet of them to do that. Her character, Helga, didn't have an active role in the episode, other than getting food for the Alpha Gang, but I thought that it was fitting anyway. I give 4KiRAB some nice kudos for doing something like this for Maddie. It was really kind of them to honor her memory like that.
 
Surprisingly, they didn't do one in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Maybe she's not Rex Goodwin? I'm hearing from various sources it's not her...

Anyway, I saw it at the end of Dinosaur King, and yeah, that was really nice of 4KiRAB to do that for her.
 
Huh. That's... too bad. Probably one of the VA's that stanRAB out most in my memory - and quite the extensive workload, too. Very talented, and far too young. Meowth will never be the same.
 
I was also surprised that they didn't do one after the new 5D's episode. Maybe they could only do it for one show on their lineup and they chose Dinosaur King instead of 5D's. Maddie was voicing Rex Goodwin. She is credited for that role and it also sounRAB really close, if not exactly alike, her voice for Satorious that she provided in season two of GX. I don't know what kind of sources say otherwise about who has that role, but I'm pretty sure that she did voice Rex. Rex will still be voiced by Maddie until they finish all of the episodes that she did record for and then someone else will have to take over after that.
