2Describe Micah Solusod [[Manga/SoulEater while I take your soul]].
3
4Micah Solusod (sometimes misspelled Micah Soulsod, born August 21, 1990 in Honolulu, Hawaii) is an anime voice actor working for Creator/FUNimation. His first major debut role that got him a lot of popularity is his voice work of the title character from ''Manga/SoulEater''.

6A really interesting note is that prior to the official dub cast announcement of ''Soul Eater'', Solusod's role as Soul Eater was misattributed to Creator/JohnnyYongBosch by many fans due to the similar vocal range Micah shares with Johnny. [[labelnote:*]]They do share similar vocal ranges, the only difference is Johnny is [[Anime/EurekaSeven capable of a higher pitch]] than Micah.[[/labelnote]] Most of the confusion was started due to the fact [=FUNimation=] released a preview clip prior to the dub cast announcement. This confusion has even [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments hilariously]] [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in his [[http://www.micahsolusod.com/faq.html FAQ]] where he compared himself to Johnny Yong Bosch where Johnny "is the cool one who knows martial arts" while he's "the skinny one screaming like a little girl while I run away from the guy who knows martial arts." This comparison is made even [[HilariousInHindsight more hilarious]] when [=FUNimation=] revealed that he will playing the Kazuki Makabe in ''[[Anime/FafnerInTheAzureDeadAggressor Fafner In The Azure: Heaven and Earth]]'', which was played in the previous TV series by Johnny Yong Bosch. And just when it seemed like it couldn't get any funnier, he was cast as Ao Fukai in ''Anime/EurekaSevenAO'', the son of Johnny's character from the original ''Anime/EurekaSeven''. Not to mention that when it gets even more funnier than this, he was cast as Akito Hyuga in ''Anime/CodeGeassAkitoTheExiled'', which also has Johnny appearing in that same series as Lelouch, but under a very different name.

8Micah lived in Hawaii, and he was directly inspired by anime and voice acting growing up. He moved to Texas in 2009 after he was invited to record for some minor roles at [=FUNimation=]. He loves drawing in his spare time, and is the lead artist for the webcomic, ''Ties That Bind''. He is in a relationship with fellow [=FUNimation=] voice actress Creator/ApphiaYu. They got engaged on April 1, 2015, and yes that is not a prank. [[https://twitter.com/soymilkpudding/status/715971526105939968 They both tied the knot]] exactly one year afterward.

10By the way, he's kept himself up to date with what's happening in the Toaruverse after he got casted as Touma Kamijou.

90!!Tropes associated with Micah:
91* ChronicallyKilledActor: Nearly half of the characters he voices die. Sometimes more than once. In the case of [[spoiler: Black Butler]], an entire OVA was dedicated to his character's death.
92* PigeonholedVoiceActor: A lot of his roles tend to be young protagonists [[{{Determinator}} with very strong willpower]] or {{Bishonen}}s. Compare [[Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex Touma]], [[Literature/OkamiSan List]], [[Anime/EurekaSevenAO Ao]], [[Anime/GuiltyCrown Gai]], [[Anime/FafnerInTheAzureDeadAggressor Kazuki]], and [[Anime/LastExile Claus]] are some of the top examples[[note]][[TheOtherDarrin The last two were once voiced by]] Creator/JohnnyYongBosch[[/note]].
93* PlayingAgainstType:
94** Midnight from ''Manga/FairyTail'' is a villain [[DudeLooksLikeALady that looks like a woman]].
95** [[Anime/GuiltyCrown Gai]] and [[Manga/CodeBreaker Rei]] arguably counts as well; as both of them are far more morally ambiguous than most of Micah's other characters, and the voice Micah uses for both of them are much deeper than what one usually hears from him.
96** Akashi Kuniyuki in ''Anime/ToukenRanbuHanamaru'' seems like this, except that character is somewhat widely regarded as an {{Expy}} of a character from ''Anime/{{K}}'' who was voiced in the dub by... Creator/JohnnyYongBosch. Coincidence?
