Yasmien Kurdi at the Kyoto International Manga Museum


"Kung alukin ako na i-dub uli 'yung 'Bleach' kung ibalik siya sa GMA, G na G ako!" Yasmien wrote in a post on Instagram.

For six long years, Kapuso actress Yasmien Kurdi was the Tagalog voice of Bleach character Rukia Kuchiki when the popular Japanese anime series aired in GMA.

Now, Yasmien took a trip down memory lane as she visited the Kyoto International Manga Museum in Japan that features almost all Japanese comic books and graphic novels for the public to enjoy.

"6 years ako nag-dub ng character ni Rukia Kuchiki sa Philippine version ng Bleach. Habang dina-dub ko 'yung series, naging fan ako ng anime na ito," she wrote in the caption of her Instagram post.

"First time ko mabasa ang libro sa Japan. Bumisita kami sa Kyoto International Manga Museum at ang astig! Lahat ng manga simula noon pa ay nandun.

"Ang cool ng experience, makikita mo kung paano nila i-drawing sa akto 'yung manga. Kung aalukin ako na i-dub uli 'yung 'Bleach' kung ibalik siya sa GMA, G na G ako!

"Proud to be the Filipino version of Rukia Kuchiki."
