Masako Nozawa, the voice of Dragon Ball's Son Goku, has been gifted Japan's Kikuchi Prize for Cultural Contributions.
Dragon Ball is one of the biggest franchises to ever come from Japan. Over the decades, the voices of its fighters have become beloved the world over, but none are more popular than Goku. Actress Masako Nozawa has overseen the Saiyan's reign since day one, and now they have been gifted a major accolade in honor of their work.
Of course, Nozawa has been in much more than Dragon Ball since beginning her career. The actress got her start in anime with Astro Boy in 1963. Nozawa went on to voice the character Kitaro in Gegege no Kitaro several years later, and her career shot off from there. From Son Goku to Doraemon and Doctor Kureha, Nozawa has taken part in some of the biggest anime series in history. So when it comes to awards, well – there is no one better than Nozawa to honor.
