We just lost another legend today 😔
Figueira Júnior has passed away on June 27, 2026, after suffering a cardiac arrest.
For many fans, his voice became inseparable from Android 17 in Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and Dragon Ball Super. He was also remembered for voicing Philip J. Fry in Futurama, a role that showed his range beyond anime and made him part of another beloved animated classic.
Known works include:
Dragon Ball Z — Android 17
Futurama — Philip J. Fry
Getbackers — Kazuki Fuchouin
Fullmetal Alchemist — Kain Fuery
Futurama — Fry
Batman — Robin
Rave — Shadow Master
Get Backers — Kazuki
and many more!
Behind every iconic character is a performer who gives them life, attitude, humor, and emotion. Figueira Júnior’s work helped make Android 17 unforgettable to generations of fans who grew up watching Dragon Ball.
We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, fans, and the dubbing community in Brazil.
May he rest in peace 🕊️
Terry Crews reveals why he no longer reacts when someone uses the N word
“In my culture, if somebody called you nigger, you knock them out, no matter what, no questions asked, don’t even hesitate.”
“Well the thing is, usually when you do that, you go to jail, you can’t prove somebody called you a nigger unless it’s recorded and it’s your word against, somebody’s laying on the ground, you just assaulted somebody.”
“The jail is full of black men who were baited by a word and had to had to follow the rules.”
“Here’s the thing that changed for me and this is where I Learned what I could control, there are no niggas, there’s no such thing you might as well call somebody a leprechaun.”
“There’s no such thing as a nigger, and I said holy cow, I can get mad about someone calling me something I’m not.”
“The thing I like to say is, Bill Gates, if you call him broke, he just look at you and go go in his helicopter and fly away, he wouldn’t even be threatened by that.”
“But here’s the thing, if you really do think you’re a nigga, that’s when it affects you, that’s when you wanna fight and I said but I’m not a nigga and I realized that there was so much I could let wash off.”
What's crazy is that the Klsn isn't even a threat anymore... it's literally just a small minority of weirdos in theory sheds grumbling, and if they do make a group its probably just one racist guy and 20 feds trying to rage bait him to get him arrested.
The modern Klan is basically this:
