"I am the bone of my sword..."
Jun'ichi Suwabe (born March 29, 1972) is a Japanese voice actor made popular by his uniquely suave baritone voice that usually lands him the role of a cool and serious Mr. Fanservice. Doesn't stop him from sometimes being a Butt-Monkey, a Large Ham, or a complete psychopath, however.
"Steel is my body and fire is my blood..."
Has quite a relationship with Masakazu Morita, Akira Ishida and Kenichi Suzumura.
"I have created over a thousand tropes."
A common Casting Gag for him nowadays is for him to voice some handsome Ambiguously Brown guys, or anyone who can invoke Foreign Fanservice.
