Yamaguchi hospitalized due to torn shoulder
Voice actor Kappei Yamaguchi revealed in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) account on Thursday that he is hospitalized due to a torn shoulder, and was scheduled for a surgery on Friday. In a follow-up post, Yamaguchi explained that he overexerted himself in weight training and tore his shoulder, and since it’s an area of the shoulder that doesn’t heal naturally, he had to have surgery. Yamaguchi also thanked everyone who sent him messages of well wishes. In a post on Sunday, Yamaguchi posted a picture of himself in the hospital with an arm cast.
