From January 20th to January 27th, 2024, the Netorabo Research Team conducted a survey asking, “What is your favorite TV anime character played by voice actor Koki Uchiyama?”
Of the roles played by Mr. Uchiyama, who often plays characters with a bit of a dark side, which character was the most popular? In this survey, we received a total of 4154 votes. Thank you for all your votes! Now, let’s take a look at the results.
2: Toge Inumaki (Jujutsu Kaisen)
two was “Inumaki Toge”. The number of votes received was 527, and the percentage of votes was 12.7%. Toge Inumaki, who appears in “Jujutsu Kaisen,” is a senior at Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu Technical College, one grade above the main character, Kojo. He has a strong power over words, so he usually doesn’t speak much for safety reasons. He is an unusual character who only expresses his emotions by saying the names of the ingredients in his rice balls.
Although her vocabulary is limited to words such as “sake” and “kaka,” Uchiyama exquisitely expresses her emotions through subtle changes in the tone of her voice. He’s not just a mysterious character but a fantastic character. You can also see the use of formal techniques in the battle scenes, and the gap with the “onigiri language” is attractive.
1: Tsukishima Hotaru (Haikyuu!!)
one was “Tsukishima Hotaru”. It received 613 votes, which is 14.8% of the total votes. Kei Tsukishima, who appears in “Haikyuu!!”, has a somewhat cold and slightly twisted personality.
At the story’s beginning, she wasn’t so desperately devoted to volleyball, but as those around her influenced her, she gradually showed her passion. Ms. Uchiyama brilliantly expressed Tsukishima Kei’s various facial expressions using her high acting skills. He skillfully portrays the cool Tsukishima Kei, who takes a step back and thinks about things from a different perspective, and the passionate Tsukishima Kei, who takes volleyball seriously.
