Let me say this to start ... I'm not a little pervert ... I'm a big one!
When coming to voice badass, Large Hams, or Hot-Blooded characters, Hochu Otsuka (born May 19, 1954 in Tsuyama, Japan) is a name not to miss. His former actor name is Yoshitada Otsuka, which is also his real name (and uses the same kanji).
He is instantly recognizable for his distinctive smooth, deep voice.
