Doc Harris, the English narrator of the 90s anime series Dragon Ball Z, has sadly died at 76.The star passed away on Saturday, 5 October in Vancouver General Hospital after he had a minor surgery last month, as first reported by Canadian trade publication Broadcast Dialogue.

Doc, who was born Gilbert Auchinleck voiced over 200 episodes of the hugely popular anime show between the years of 1996 and 2003.

Fans will remember the star’s iconic phrases in the show, kicking off with: “Last time on Dragon Ball Z,” before ending, “We'll see you next time on Dragon Ball Z.” As the sad news breaks, tributes have been pouring in online from both friends and fans.
