From December 5th to December 12th, the Netorabo Survey Team conducted a questionnaire asking, “Who does Toshio Furukawa play your favorite TV anime character?”
The voting target is all 25 TV anime characters posted on the profile of the agency site. If the character you want to vote for is not in the voting items, you voted for “Other” and asked them to tell you the character name and work name in the comments.
In this questionnaire, we received a total of 3538 votes. Thank you! Let’s take a look at the ranking.
- Asuma Shinohara (Mobile Police Patlabor)
The third place is Asuma Shinohara of “Mobile Police Patlabor,” who collected 393 votes. He played an active part as a partner of the main character, Akira Izumino. Although he is the sergeant of Shinohara Heavy Industries, the largest labor manufacturer, he will become a police officer without taking over his business due to a feud with his father. Mr. Furukawa brilliantly expressed Yuma, a twister with a foul mouth but has a passionate heart with companionship.
- Piccolo (Dragon Ball series)
The second place is the piccolo of the “Dragon Ball Series,” which collected 661 votes. In the early stages, it was depicted as a reincarnation of King Piccolo, a rival of the main character, Son Goku. He was an enemy who wanted to conquer the world, but later, he began to fight with Goku and his friends. Due to his excellent and intellectual personality, he sometimes plays the role of a manzai. In the comment, “The charm of a character who has both strength and kindness, intelligence and nature is due to Mr. Furukawa’s voice and acting.”
- Ataru Moroboshi (Urusei Yatsura)
The first place is Ataru Moroboshi of “Urusei Yatsura,” who collected 1094 votes. A character who is the main character of the story and is unilaterally loved by the heroine alien Ram. She is feminine and optimistic, but she has a personality that she can’t hate. May she eventually swear her eternal love for the courtesy from Ram, who was initially reluctant to do so. The easygoing personality matched Mr. Furukawa’s nimble acting. In the comment, there is a voice saying, “I was surprised at the expression of the hit that changes emotions rapidly in one episode.”
