2 | ->''[[Series/KamenRiderKiva BYUN! BYUN! BYUN!]] [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion This description of Akira Ishida is the greatest achievement of TV Tropes culture.]] [[Literature/FateZero I mean, IT'S SO COOOOL!]]'' |
3 | |
4 | THE voice actor when it comes to {{Bishonen}} characters. [[DudeLooksLikeALady The girlier]], [[ViewerGenderConfusion the better]]. Bonus points if the character has MysticalWhiteHair. |
5 | |
6 | Akira Ishida (born November 2, 1967) voices characters that are more on the laid-back side... and sometimes on the more enigmatic, sinister side. This makes him quite the fan favorite even today. It does help that his first well known voice was [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Kaworu Nagisa]], which gives him quite a good start, but it wasn't until later that his roles as [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Athrun Zala]] and [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Gaara]] shot him to great fame. |
7 | |
8 | Has a lot of "relationships" with fellow ''Gundam SEED'' voice actor Creator/SoichiroHoshi. And with Creator/RomiPark, Creator/MegumiOgata, Creator/MamikoNoto, Music/MegumiHayashibara, Creator/TomokazuSeki, Creator/YuukiKaji, Creator/RikiyaKoyama, Creator/JunichiSuwabe, Creator/JojiNakata, Creator/TakehitoKoyasu, Creator/MegumiToyoguchi, Creator/AkioOtsuka, Creator/TomokazuSugita, and recently Creator/MaayaSakamoto. And some very rabid fangirls and fanboys. |
9 | |
10 | Also, for the record, he's one of the only male voice actors to have [[CrossdressingVoice voiced a WOMAN]]. |
11 | |
12 | If his character is killed, expect it to be via head injury. |
13 | |
14 | Not to be confused with the artist Akira Ishida. |

205 | ----- |
206 | !!Tropes relating to Akira Ishida: |
207 | * CrossdressingVoices: Is one of the few male anime voice actors to voice a woman. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG3EqJizfkQ In one skit he voices seven characters, including the mother, teenage daughter and the grandmother.]] |
208 | %%* DudeLooksLikeALady: With his characters the [[ViewerGenderConfusion girlier]], the better. %%ZCE, and also needs clarification that his characters are noted to look girly InUniverse since it is a requirement for this trope |
209 | * ManOfAThousandVoices: Taken up to eleven in the Smartphone game ''VideoGame/ChainChronicle'' where he plays ''forty-six'' characters at once. |
210 | * MysticalWhiteHair: Many of his roles fall under this: [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Kaworu]], [[Manga/PandoraHearts Break]], [[Manga/FutureDiary Akise]], [[Manga/DrStone Hyouga]], [[Literature/ReZero Regulus]], [[Manga/MarchComesInLikeALion Souya]] and [[Manga/FoodWars Tsukasa]]. |
211 | * NotSoStoic: Ishida is known as one of the most serious voice actors in the business, rarely ever cracking a joke or laughing. But there are rare cases that he actually laughed at certain things, which caused everyone near him to get silent in shock en masse, with Ishida apologizing.[[note]]During the recording of ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'' during the 'Virus Smith' arc, Ishida's character, Katsura Kotarou, had his body and face replaced with those of UsefulNotes/BarackObama, and during the recording session, his face was completely uncensored. The sight of his character looking like Obama, spouting and having to record him saying [[CatchPhrase "Yes. We Can."]] was the point that Ishida lost his composure and laughed.[[/note]] |
212 | * TypeCasting: Has picked up more villainous roles in the latter parts of his career. |
