4Bryce Austin Papenbrook (born February 24, 1986) is an American voice actor born in Los Angeles, California. He is best known for voicing young heroes in anime such as Eren Yeager in ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'', Kirito in ''Literature/SwordArtOnline'', Meliodas in ''Manga/TheSevenDeadlySins'' and Inosuke Hashibira in ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba''. Cartoon fans will also know him as Adrien Agreste (aka Cat Noir) in ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug''. Even before he broke out into voice acting, he was California royalty, being the son of the late Creator/BobPapenbrook, who famously played various characters in the ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' franchise until 2002, and Debbie Rothstein.

127!!Bryce Papenbrook and his works provide examples of:
128
129* EvilLaugh: He had to do a few for [[spoiler:[[VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair Nagito Komaeda]]]]. A lot of fans were pleasantly surprised by how well he pulled them off.
130** It's an ExaggeratedTrope with [[VideoGame/{{Elsword}} Add]] especially as [[AxCrazy Diabolic Esper]].
131* HairTriggerTemper: A good number of his characters has a very short temper. Compare Eren, Staz, Hanabusa, and Rin are borderline examples.
132* HotBlooded: Since a lot of his roles involves screaming to the top of his lungs, many of his roles such as Kirito, Hanabusa, Rin, and Eren Yeager have this personality. Bonus points of some of these characters get [[HairTriggerTemper pissed off easily]].
133* {{Keet}}: Some of his roles qualify; including Henry, Rin, Zidane, and Masaomi Kida are a few examples.
134* KidHero: Rin Okumura, Zidane, Asbel Lhant, Kirito, Red, Chooki Mason, Eren Yeager, and Henry are some of the best examples. [[note]]Technically speaking, Asbel is an adult that Bryce voiced, but the character still fits into the T when Asbel is younger. Henry isn't exactly a well-adjusted person nor is he totally evil, but he still fits into the trope due to his young age and fighting on Chrom's side.[[/note]] Adrien/Chat Noir is sort of an example, he's more a teenager than a kid.
135* ManOfAThousandVoices: It’s a common joke that he’s absolutely ''everywhere'', and has a tendency to show up in the most unexpected of places.
136* NiceGuy: Most of the characters he voices happens to be selflessly kind to everyone and can get along with others such as [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors Guan Ping]], [[Literature/SwordArtOnline Kirito]], [[Manga/BlueExorcist Rin]], [[VideoGame/PersonaQShadowOfTheLabyrinth Theodore]], [[Anime/PokemonOrigins Red]], [[VideoGame/TalesOfGraces Asbel]], [[VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc Makoto Naegi]] and [[WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadyBug Adrien]]. [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Henry]] provides a more twisted example. [[VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair Nagito Komaeda]] [[spoiler:twists and subverts the trope in a similar fashion]].
137* RedOniBlueOni: If his character is paired up with another character, expect the said character to be the red one in the pair.
138* [[ChildrenVoicingChildren Teenagers Voicing Teenagers]]: Actually played this straight early in his career- he voiced [[Manga/DotHackLegendOfTheTwilight Shugo Kunisaki]] and [[VideoGame/RadiataStories Jack Russell]] when he was a teenager. It has to be noted that he's technically been in the voice-acting business since he was ''eight''- the aforementioned two are among his earliest named roles.
139* {{Typecasting}}: Often cast into [[{{Keet}} an energetic young boy/teenager]], a NiceGuy, or a KidHero. Basically he fills in the forte that Creator/YuriLowenthal held for a long time since Yuri is now typecast into [[NotSoStoic mostly stoic]] {{Angst}}y characters.
140** Though this is subverted with [[Literature/{{Durarara}} Masaomi Kida]], where while he starts out as a PluckyComicRelief {{Keet}}, he later becomes [[ObfuscatingStupidity more serious]] in the series.
141** His usual role is also {{deconstructed|Trope}} with [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Henry]], who goes past the line from friendly and cheerful to really, really creepy, then all the way back to friendly and cheerful.
142** [[spoiler:Not unlike Henry, [[VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair Nagito]] runs a spectrum from friendly and helpful to creepy and dangerous; it's even more jarring in this instance because the first chapter of the game was intent on making him seem similar to Makoto of [[VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc the first game]], down to -- of course -- the same voice actor. Also, once he's in his true element and shows of his horrifying side, all future displays of friendliness or other benign behavior come across as disingenuous or backhanded, or are peppered with creepy comments of self-deprecation.]]
143** He's in it again as Silver in VideoGame/TeamSonicRacing, who's characterized with a much lighter, excitable, and naïve personality than he had previously.
