Kira's voice actor: Takahiro Sakurai
Recently, I have been encountering Takahiro Sakurai in other animes alot. The most obvious, as in it took me all of five minutes to pick him out since his voice only changed marginally from how he does Kira, was as Agemaki Kei in Otome Yōkai Zakuro. On the other hand, I suffered through multiple episodes of Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitteiru wondering why Luka Crosszeria's voice sounded familiar and still I was shocked when I discovered that Luka Crosszeria was voiced by Takahiro Sakurai.
Have any of you guys had that? You know, watching another anime and suddenly going "that sounds like Kira!" and then discovering that it IS Kira!
I have also always wondered if voice actors often get picked to do similar type of characters and so even though they are different anime series, the character share personality traits. But I think Takahiro Sakurai gets a wide variety of rolls since there are only aspectal similarities between Kira Izuru, Agemaki Kei and Luka Crosszeria. However, I must say that I find a lot of similarities between the roles played by Urahara's voice actor: Miki Shinichirou.
