## Biography[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Naoki_Makishima&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Biography")]
Naoki Makishima was born on August 23, 1962[](#cite_note-VIPTimes1-1)[](#cite_note-2), in Ibaraki Prefecture[](#cite_note-3). He graduated from [Ibaraki Prefectural Shimodate 1st High School and Middle School](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ja:%E8%8C%A8%E5%9F%8E%E7%9C%8C%E7%AB%8B%E4%B8%8B%E9%A4%A8%E7%AC%AC%E4%B8%80%E9%AB%98%E7%AD%89%E5%AD%A6%E6%A0%A1%E3%83%BB%E9%99%84%E5%B1%9E%E4%B8%AD%E5%AD%A6%E6%A0%A1 "wikipedia:ja:茨城県立下館第一高等学校・附属中学校")[](#cite_note-VIPTimes1-1). He later studied in the voice acting department of the [Tokyo Announcing Academy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ja:%E5%B0%82%E9%96%80%E5%AD%A6%E6%A0%A1%E6%9D%B1%E4%BA%AC%E3%82%A2%E3%83%8A%E3%82%A6%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B9%E5%AD%A6%E9%99%A2 "wikipedia:ja:専門学校東京アナウンス学院")[](#cite_note-VIPTimes1-1). Following his graduation, he was signed with voice-acting agency [Troubadour](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ja:%E3%83%88%E3%83%AB%E3%83%90%E3%83%89%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E9%9F%B3%E6%A5%BD%E4%BA%8B%E5%8B%99%E6%89%80 "wikipedia:ja:トルバドール音楽事務所") in 1986[](#cite_note-B-4). After joining [Ken Production](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ja:%E8%B3%A2%E3%83%97%E3%83%AD%E3%83%80%E3%82%AF%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A7%E3%83%B3 "wikipedia:ja:賢プロダクション") in 1995, before signing with [Office Kaoru](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ja:%E3%82%AA%E3%83%95%E3%82%A3%E3%82%B9%E8%96%AB "wikipedia:ja:オフィス薫") in 2016[](#cite_note-B-4).
He started his professional voice-acting career in 1985, providing the voice for many background characters in [Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Suit_Zeta_Gundam "wikipedia:Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam"). Makishima lands his first major role the same year, voicing Mugi and Nanmo in [Dirty Pair](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty_Pair "wikipedia:Dirty Pair"). He will however continue to voice mainly background characters in action and slice-of-life anime series. His first role in *Detective Conan* will be that of an unnamed shop owner in [The Coded Map of the City Case](/wiki/The_Coded_Map_of_the_City_Case "The Coded Map of the City Case"), which aired in early 1996. He would provide his voice frequently for background characters in the series, often being paired with [Isshin Chiba](/wiki/Isshin_Chiba "Isshin Chiba"). His activity diminishes around 2007, as he would later only provide his voice for one or two roles a year. This may have been an early sign of his health deteriorating. His last role was that of Takichi Takeyama in [episodes 818-819](/wiki/Kogoro%27s_Pursuit_of_Rage "Kogoro's Pursuit of Rage"), which aired in 2016.
In August 2020, he was diagnosed with cancer, which spread to his whole body, and took a break from voice acting in January 2021 to fight the illness[](#cite_note-5). He died on September 29, 2023, at the age of 61, likely from complications from his cancer. News of his death were only spread on June 3, 2024, eight months later[](#cite_note-6)[](#cite_note-7).
