This person and those like them need to read and meditate on the meaning of Romans 6:1-2.

“What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬

If you want to know the measure of Mike McFarland’s impact, just look at the online anime spaces today, overflowing with grief and gratitude. He was full of love and passion, as those who knew him well can speak to better than I can. As a fan, this is how I will remember him.🕯️♥️

Mike McFarland was a creator of joy and excitement. He took the stories and characters he was given and he visualized in them the Epic, the Compelling, the Heart-wrenching, the Haunting, the Sorrowful, the Hilarious, the Fantastic and the Real. He brought it all to vibrant life, with great care and brilliant insight, either from the booth or in guiding his casts from the director’s chair. Through Mike we were able to vibrantly experience, in our own language, the stories, characters and moments that made us think, feel, and dream. If you’re an anime fan it is almost a certainty that a story, a character, a spoken line, an unforgettable scene with Mike’s influence on it is embedded in your mind and heart, forever a part of the joy and excitement that fuels us as anime fans. I can’t imagine Mike could be any happier than to know we are carrying him with us this way. Thank you for giving us your light, Mike. We’ll keep it shining for you.

It’s about Mike McFarland. John Gremillion posted on Insta about it but then deleted his post, so that’s why his name is mentioned. Now more voice actors and industry folks are starting to make statements on various platforms.

A true legend with a humble heart. That’s all too rare these days. This really hurts. I’m so sorry Rowan. Keeping you and everyone who had the good fortune to know him personally in my heart tonight. 🕯️

The VA community on Twitter is beginning to post statements about it that seem to confirm. I’ve seen 7 or 8 tweets from industry folks to this point.

Once again one of our neighbors cats added inventory to the cat distribution system and it would be wrong of me not to share the adorbz with y’all. 2 weeks old and tiny enough for one to comfortably rest their head between my index and middle finger when I picked em up.🥰🥰🥰

This reminds me of nothing so much as the vicstan during the blowup who talked about lizard men and started every reply with “according to my calculations”. Ah, memories.

Quite an honor (and a lot of pressure) for this Colorado guy and my smoker to be trusted with the title and responsibility of Rib Master for the big Texas family July 4th BBQ in my first year as a resident here. I gave it my best for the fam.🫡

Passed my first semester of online courses towards gaining a professional certification in the career field I want to switch to (GIS/Cartography/Geography) with flying colors. Finally feeling like I’m making progress feels good.🎓📚👍

With Coco sick and Qifrey busy, it’s Tartah’s time to shine! It bears repeating that with Tartah, @eneveswrites.bsky.social is adding a whole new chapter to her legend as one of anime’s all-time best actors. #WitchHatAtelier’s dub keeps on showcasing current legends while also establishing new ones!

You’re so welcome Emily! I’m so happy you’re a part of this special show, and you honest to goodness blew me away here. This is so impressive and beautifully done!

Kyle Collins @kylecinvail.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

One of my favorite performances in #WitchHatAtelier has to be @eneveswrites.bsky.social as Tartah. Simply enchanting, and unlike anything I’ve heard from Emily before in all my years as a longtime fan. Truly one of the best voice actors in the business!

A kitten a day keeps the sadness away. Our neighbor’s cat gave birth a few weeks ago and they let us borrow a cup of pure preciousness for a bit. It would be greedy of me not to share this gift with y’all, as a timeline cleanse.😻😻😻

I honestly didn’t recognize you at first Emily! You are always showing us new and brilliant facets of your phenomenal acting skills. Still one of the very best anime has ever had. Congratulations on being a part of this incredible show!!

Hey, they righted the ship tonight. Don’t you know (as I begrudgingly do) that this is their playoffs MO? Take game 1 off to lull the opponent into thinking they got the series in the bag and then ripping their hearts out? See round 1 last year 😑

You are doing such a phenomenal job as Hana, Meggie! She might be my favorite character in this show so far!

I could listen to @madeleinemorris.actor, @sarahwiedenheft.com and #NeridaBronwen speak in these vibrant, enchanting voices for days. Good golly @emilyjfajardo.bsky.social assembled such a top-tier cast for every single character in #WitchHatAtelier. Talk about music to the ears.👂 ✨

I was unfortunately unable to get close enough for a good clear photo before they ran/flew off, but I bet not many of us have ever seen a cardinal and a white tail in the lunch line together.

“Thank you for your thanks!” No @sarahwiedenheft.com, thank YOU for using your unparalleled voice acting magic to enchant us all as Tetia!! And Nerida Bronwen is a delight as dear sleepy Richeh!! What a dub this already is! #WitchHatAtelier @hereliesanjali.bsky.social @emilyjfajardo.bsky.social

Kyle Collins @kylecinvail.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

The introduction of Agott is one I’ve been looking forward to, and @madeleinemorris.actor is already going above and beyond!! The first scene of all four apprentices in #WitchHatAtelier was delightfully bewitching! @hereliesanjali.bsky.social @sarahwiedenheft.com @emilyjfajardo.bsky.social
