[[caption-width-right:210:[[RedEyesTakeWarning His eyes are red.]] [[OhCrap He must know your name and lifespan now...]]]]

In ''Manga/DeathNote'' he [[PlayingAgainstType finally broke out of his pigeonhole]] by playing MagnificentBastard Light Yagami. Many fans consider his performance to be the best of his entire career. Swaile instantly became [[MemeticMutation memetically popular]], joining fellow VA ScottMcNeil. He introduced us to the wonders of [[{{Badass}} taking potato chips...and EATING THEM]], and terrified everyone with his [[EvilLaugh epic maniacal laughter]] in the final episode.

* Several major characters in various ''Gundam'' series:

* Adult Gohan and Goten in TheOceanGroup dub of ''Manga/DragonBall Z''

* ActingForTwo: In the Ocean Group dub of ''Manga/DragonBall Z'' he voices both Gohan and Goten.

* MeanCharacterNiceActor

Basically he's the Canadian equivalent to MamoruMiyano, seeing as how this guy usually ends up dubbing Miyano's roles. BradSwaile was at first [[PigeonholedVoiceActor pigeonholed]] into playing either [[KidHero young male leads]] or [[IdiotHero Idiot Heroes]]... [[note]]Note that he did have a strong following in Vancouver and parts of Canada.[[/note]]

You can also hear him in nearly EVERY ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'' series, usually as a Gundam pilot. He pretty much just uses the same voice as he did for [[strike:Amuro]] Quatre each time as well, making him that much easier to find.
