One of my favorite Anime Singers passed away due to lung cancer. May she rest in Peace.

 

Sources close to the Russian born singer confirm that Olga Yakovleva, better known as Orika, passed away on January 17th after a battle with cancer. The 44 year old was best known to anime watchers for her collaborations with composer Yoko Kanno on the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex series. She also worked on the Fantastic Children TV anime and Studio 4°C movie Princess Arete. 

 

Following studies at Novosibirsk Specialized Music School (1986-1990), Orika visited Sapporo as part of a cultral exchange, and ended up signing a contract that lead to the recording of her first albun in Tokyo in 1994.
