Mari Iijima, the Japanese voice actress for Lynn Minmei in the original Super Dimension Fortress Macross TV series, will reprise her role in the upcoming English dub of the series by ADV. An accomplished singer and songwriter, Mari is fluent in English, having lived in Los Angeles since 1989.

This is not the first time an actress has played the same role in both the Japanese and English versions; Miyuki Sawashiro played Puchiko in Synch-Point‘s dubs for both Di Gi Charat the Movie and Leave it to Piyoko, before being recast due to a scheduling conflict.
