I understand that you voiced the role of Lynn Minmay in the original Japanese version of Super Dimension Fortress Macross which aired in 1982 and you recently voiced the same character in the English dubbed version. That in itself is very interesting, but what makes it even more fascinating is that you are reportedly the only person to have accomplished this, providing the voice for both the original Japanese version and the English language version. Please tell us more about this experience and how it came about. What was it like revisiting the character two decades later?
