The voice actor and actor Uwe Jellinek is dead. In Detective Conan, he lent his voice to Shuichi Akai, among others. He died in Germany on March 17, 2023.

At the beginning of February 2018, Oli and I got to know Uwe Jellinek for the first time. At that time we were guests at Oxygen Sound Studios in Berlin to watch the dubbing of the TV special Episode ONE live. Detective Conan: Episode ONE – The Shrunken Master Detective is for me personally, as I like to emphasize as often as so like, the best dubbing masterpiece that exists in the Detective Conan universe. And there are many! Together with the dialogue book author and dubbing director Karin Lehmann, ConanNews.org was involved in the selection of the dubbing actors.

Uwe Jellinek was the first to speak Shuichi Akai, who got a few takes recorded towards the end and for which he travelled specially for them. As short as his takes were, so short was the encounter. And yet, even after the recordings, his warmth was still clearly felt far away from the microphone and also far away from the studio. Far beyond his voice color. It was an honor for us, rest in peace! We wish his family and all those who were connected to him much strength. Our sincere condolences.

On Instagram, a video of the voice actor Frank Schröder first appeared. Compared to ConanNews.org, the death of Uwe Jellinek was officially confirmed independently by another source when asked. He died yesterday.
