My Take
I've basically watched this guy grow up onscreen, and honestly it does something to me, like I'm the relative who keeps saying "look how big he's gotten." Child actors usually flame out or get insufferable, but Ryūnosuke Kamiki just quietly kept leveling up, picking up a Best Lead Actor nod in the voice world and then sliding into prestige live-action like it was nothing. The thing that gets me is the range: he can voice an anime lead one year and anchor a sweeping drama the next, and that disarming, no-edge smile makes you forget how technically sharp he actually is. He came up out of Saitama without the messy tabloid noise, just steady, dependable craft. Easy to root for, hard not to like, and way tougher under the cuteness than people expect.
