Background

In junior high school, he became obsessed with idols such as Akina Nakamori, but in high school, "Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro" and his involvement in the Kyudo club led him to pursue voice acting again. After graduating from high school, he went on to attend the Broadcasting Arts Academy College and moved to Tokyo at the age of 21. Graduated from the 10th term of Seiji Juku Tokyo School. He made his debut in the anime "Dragon Quest. He has since continued his career with minor roles, and played his first leading role as Masato Kaneda in "Super Electric Robot Tetsujin 28-go FX".[1]
