My Take
Ryuichi Kijima, born in Hokkaido in 1985, belongs to a category of voice actor I have a lot of time for: the one you notice after the fact. You finish a series, something about a character stayed with you, and only then do you check the credits. His best-known role is probably Mitsuki in Boruto, a character defined by ambiguity, a boy whose warmth and strangeness sit right on top of each other, and that balance lives entirely in the voice. Get it slightly wrong and he is either creepy or bland. Kijima keeps him unsettling and likeable at once. Add Hifumi Izanami in Hypnosis Mic, Lenka Utsugi in God Eater, and Shun Mizuki in Time Travel Girl, and a pattern shows: roles with a hidden second layer. That is a specific skill, not a general one, and it does not always translate into headline fame. It should.
