The latest in the YAKUZA game series is out. I voiced some background characters. When I record, I open up my notes app on my phone and type in the roles.
Voiced a few background characters in the new #YakuzaLikeADragon game. Checking my notes that I took when I recorded…let’s see here: Kiyoshi (biker),
Bleach Japan Mobster,
Freight Unloader,
Sumo wrestler, and
Hamanoumi (also a wrestler). 😎
Been a minute, eh? 2020. What a year. The pandemic has changed the world. It has also changed the voice acting industry. Most talent record sessions from home now. Many upgraded their home setups with equipment and or full on booths. I am blessed to have the work’s quietest walk in closet. Cons have all been canceled or postponed til next year. Meanwhile, many in the VO community have been expanding communication with fans by using Twitch and Discord. Would love follows there if you haven’t already.

Hey guys! Figured it was time for some sort of an update, seeing as it’s the end of February. Been a while, eh? Happy New Year! Hope you guys tune into Toonami every week for the awesome anime lineup. You can hear me as Gohan on DBZ Kai and Dragonball Super, as well as Kakyoin on Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders, Kiba and Inoichi on Naruto Shippuden, and various smaller roles on Hunter X Hunter and Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans. Added a few new shows I’ll be attending, such as Collective Con, Anime Detour, and more on the way. Hit the APPEARANCE page for links to all the websites for more info.
If you want to see me at your local convention, make sure to request myself and any other guests you’d like to see on that con’s social media. Or shoot them a nice email (one will suffice, spamming is a bad thing). Thanks, as always, for the continued love and support.
Speaking of love, I married my beautiful fiancee, Christina Louise, known online by her pen name, Ryter Rong, on Valentine’s Day in our living room. We had a brief 11 minute ceremony (we believe in cutting to the chase), which you can view in its entirety HERE. Hope you have an awesome day!
