— Dragon Ball Z Abridged FAQ Special 1
Scott Frerichs (born January 27, 1987) AKA KaiserNeko is the co-founder of Team Four Star and series showrunner of Dragon Ball Z Abridged where he served as Director, Producer, Writer, and Editor. Prior to his formation the group, he was the creator of his short lived Abridged Series of Lupin III inspired by the success of LittleKuriboh's Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series. This would lead him and two others to abridge Dragon Ball Z due to his knowledge of the original Japanese run of the anime and of the source material growing up.
In addition to creating DBZA as a whole, he also served Editor and Writer for its sister series and former Halloween specials, Hellsing Ultimate Abridged from 2010-2018 that was headlined by Takahata101

Provides examples of:
- Acting for Two: In several abridged projects made by TFS, he's usually voicing more than one character. Takahata101 lampshaded this tendency, stating the "default option" was to cast Scott for auxiliary or supporting characters.
- Actor Allusion: Both Korin & Yajirobe are a happily gay couple that are voiced by Kaiser himself, who is a happily gay married man in real life. Burter also counts, according to Guldo, as well as HFIL, where he is "gay as sunshine."
- Bilingual Bonus: Is fluent in Japanese, which is a source of understanding for the original DBZ anime. He also voices the Toilet on Kami's ship in DBZA when it speaks Japanese (Lani voices it when it speaks German).
- The Cameo: His fursona was included in a crowd shot in Housepets!. He and other DBZA alums were also in a scene in the English dub of Dragon Ball Z Kai, using their characters in Mr. Satan's dramatization of the Cell Games at the beginning of the Buu saga (though this scene was replaced with the original audio from DBZ at Toei Animation's request).
- Creator's Pest: He's expressed dislike of voicing Burter due to the character's voice doing a number on his throat.Burter: (in Episode 3 of HFIL): Thank god! This voice is killing me!
- Furry Fandom: Kaiser is very much a furry, and has represented Team Four Star at furry conventions. His fursona is a tiger with teal hair. This is lampshaded in the first FAQ video for DBZA, when Nappa refers to him as the "tiger kitty".
- Man of a Thousand Voices: In anyway possible, he's pretty much the Frank Welker of the Abridging voice acting world. Prime examples be:
- Dragon Ball Z Abridged, as Future/Teen Trunks, King Kai, Korin, Burter, Zarbon, Gregory, Yajirobe, Garlic Jr, Oolong, King Vegeta, Turtle, Icarus, Super Buu, Sharpner and George Takei.
- Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series, as Johnson.

- Hellsing Ultimate Abridged as the Cheddar Priest, Luke Valentine, Reginald, Pip Bernadotte and Scarlet Tampon.
- Final Fantasy VII: Machinabridged as Tseng.
- Young Justice Abridged as Professor Zoom/Reverse Flash from Suicide Squad 2: Ticket to Heck.
- Sword Art Online Abridged as Nobuyuki Sugou/Oberon.
- Promoted Fanboy: Much like his other DBZA alumni Lanipator and Takahata101, he was brought in to voice one of the male custom character voices for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 and a Freeza soldier for the Resurrection F movie. He was also snuck into the dub of Kai: The Final Chapters before the audio was removed for the Toonami broadcast at Toei Animation's behest.
- Role Reprise: In various web videos or fan works like DEATH BATTLE!, he has reprised his role as Future Trunks from DBZA.
- Signature Headgear: His famous "BARA" cap, which has become a signature of his.
- Straight Gay: And damn proud of it.
