Johnny Yong Bosch

Bosch has had one of the more unlikely and durable careers in genre entertainment. Going from the Black Power Ranger to one of anime dubbing's most recognizable voices is a real glow-up, and his Ichigo and Lelouch are definitive English performances for a whole generation of fans. What I respect is the range, he can do brooding hero, unhinged villain and dry comic relief with equal conviction. The fact that he also tours with Eyeshine and stays genuinely engaged with the convention circuit tells you he loves this world. A fan favorite who earned that status the long way.
