What people said
What do you mean slurred speech at 45 lol
Way too early for that
That's the scary part.
And sure enough, she ended up getting let go
Or was it before?
She's been depressed since her grandmother passed away, and [her husband] Seino is basically the only thing keeping her tethered to this world
I heard her cat died too
Can losing a grandmother (I'd get it more if it were her mother) and a cat really break someone this badly…
Her husband must be having a rough time too
Might just be a string of bad luck, but it really feels like her fortunes tanked hard after the wedding
It was bad for a while but didn't it bounce back?
At its worst her voice sounded like it was about to fade away, but now it's coming through strong
Honestly surprised me enough that I double-checked it wasn't a rerun lol
though she's had a kid and is basically retired now
Hope she gets better soon

Reminds me of that former TBS announcer who struggled after getting married
I'm pretty sure things are heading in a bad direction across the board
This is like Kimura Ikumi back when she was really struggling…
She was on 'Barairo Dandy,' but she kept getting thinner and thinner after she started keeping a cat
Background and Key Points of the Discussion
In recent years, Dan Mitsu has repeatedly drawn attention for changes in her voice, particularly in her narration work for TV Asahi’s “Rokkaku Seiji no Nomitetsu Honsen: Nihon Tabi.” Her latest interview with Josei Jishin marks her responding in her own words to those health concerns, but the thread also featured baseless rumors of drug use, insinuations aimed at her husband, manga artist Seino Toru, and unconfirmed gossip about other celebrities’ health — none of which this article treats as established fact. It’s worth noting that conditions like an eating disorder or stress-related symptoms can’t be confirmed from outside without her own account, and it would be misleading to diagnose anything based on appearance alone in a video. As for her narration, opinions in the thread are split between “she’s recovered” and “it’s still rough” depending on the episode, so it’s not accurate to say her condition has been on a steady decline.
