!!Tropes associated with Steve Staley:
* PigeonholedVoiceActor: Most of the characters he voices are grumpy and/or arrogant. And often SHORT.
* PlayingAgainstType: Basically all his roles from the ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'' franchise are this: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamThe08ThMSteam Shiro]] (TheLeader-slash-ReluctantWarrior); [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn Banagher]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamF91 Seabrook]] ({{Nice Guy}}s); and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans McGillis]] (OfficerAndAGentleman type.)
** Kazuki Muto is a NiceGuy everyman, plus is TheHero.
** As does Mezumaru. He isn't exactly known for playing TheDitz...
** The calm, StepfordSmiler Liu Shan also falls under this.
