Kyle Hebert

You may not know Hebert's name, but you have almost certainly heard his voice. Adult Gohan and the narrator in Dragon Ball, Aizen in Bleach, Ryu in Street Fighter, Kiba in Naruto, Kamina in Gurren Lagann; he is woven through the English dubs that carried Japanese animation to a global audience. I respect that range enormously. Voicing wildly different characters convincingly is real acting, just stripped of the face, and DJs and podcasters like him live or die on the instrument of their voice alone. The fact that anime is so beloved abroad owes a real debt to performers willing to pour themselves into the work behind the mic.
