He usually played big tough guys, often humorously, and was a perfect fit for Hokuto no Ken.

Gōri was diagnosed with diabetes mellitus a few years prior to his death and his vision was affected by retinal detachment as a result of the disease. He began complaining that his visual impairment was hurting his job performance; he couldn't read his lines anymore and presumably had trouble watching the video screen during dubbing. "I've become old," he told Kazuhiko Inoue. On January 17, 2010 he committed suicide.
