Fatgum's voice in 'My Hero Academia' is brought to life by the incredibly talented Kenta Miyake! I first noticed his work in other roles like Ao in 'Dorohedoro' or Tobe in 'Haikyuu!!', but his performance as Fatgum is next-level. The way he shifts from that cheerful, almost paternal tone to sheer intensity during fights gives me chills every time. It's like he becomes the character—you can hear the warmth in his voice when Fatgum mentors Tamaki, then the raw power when he goes full-throttle in combat.

What’s wild is how Miyake’s range matches Fatgum’s duality perfectly. That booming laugh? The way he delivers lines like 'Eat this, villains!' with such gusto? Chef’s kiss. I’ve rewatched the Overhaul arc just for his scenes. Also, fun tidbit: Miyake often voices gruff but kind-hearted characters, which makes him a perfect fit for Fatgum’s 'big softie with a spine of steel' vibe. Now I’m itching to revisit Season 4 just for his performance.

Fatgum’s Japanese VA is Kenta Miyake, and man, does he ever own that role. I love how his voice carries this infectious enthusiasm—it’s impossible not to smile when Fatgum cheers on his interns. Miyake’s got this deep, resonant tone that works for both comedy and action, like when Fatgum dramatically expands during fights. Fun fact: he also voiced Torbjörn in 'Overwatch’s' Japanese dub, which is hilarious if you imagine Fatgum yelling 'MOLTEN COOOORE!' Now I kinda want a crossover skit.

Kenta Miyake nails Fatgum’s voice in 'My Hero Academia,' and honestly, it’s one of those casting choices that feels meant to be. I adore how he balances the character’s layers—whether it’s the playful teasing with Kirishima or the protective fury during battles. Miyake’s background in theater totally shows; his diction and emotional weight make Fatgum feel larger than life (fitting, given the guy’s Quirk).

I got curious and dug into his other roles, like Zangief in 'Street Fighter' or Riki in 'Yakuza.' Dude’s got a knack for lovable giants. But Fatgum stands out because Miyake injects so much heart into him. That moment when he praises Tamaki after their fight? Tears. Every time. Also, minor tangent: the English dub’s Chris Rager does a great job too, but Miyake’s original performance has this irreplaceable energy.

The entire ward could hear the thoughts of the beautiful intern nurse, Sonya Row. When a patient kept vomiting nonstop, and I suggested increasing the pain medication, she stood nearby, sighing. [What should I do? Should I tell the family this painkiller can be addictive and really bad for the body? If they just wait a few more minutes, he'll recover on his own. There's no need to spend money at all.] The room fell silent in an instant. Everyone's gaze shifted toward me, and the family quietly refused my treatment plan. After that, I became the joke of the entire department. Every patient specifically asked not to be assigned to me. Later, while comforting a terminal stomach cancer patient, I followed her family's wishes and lied, saying it was just gastritis. Sonya complained about it in her thoughts. [The patient's practically dying already, but she's still saying she can be cured. It's obviously just to trick this old woman into draining her life savings on treatment.] That night, the old lady jumped off the building so she wouldn't burden her family. Her family thought I had revealed the truth and driven her to her death. They reported me directly to the hospital director, and I was stripped of my position as department head. Then, on a holiday weekend, the hospital admitted a pregnant woman with a suspected amniotic fluid embolism. To save her life, I had no choice but to remove her uterus. At that moment, Sonya's thoughts rang out again. [She doesn't have an amniotic fluid embolism at all. She was on her phone during surgery, which caused this. Now look what happened. This baby's a girl. This family wanted a son, and now they'll never get one.] The family attacked me on the spot, recorded it, and posted the video online to harass me. The desperate husband, obsessed with having a son, stabbed me to death to vent his rage. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Sonya first revealed her thoughts. This time, I could hear her thoughts, too.

I was just about to drink a soup meant to supplement my pregnancy, a frantic voice suddenly called out. "Mommy, don't drink it! It's an abortion drug. Someone's trying to harm you!" Startled, my hand jerked, and I knocked the soup over. My husband's cousin teared up, her voice choking, "B-But I cooked that soup myself as an apology…" I didn't pay her any heed, only checking the contents of the medicinal soup. There was a large amount of poison in it, enough to not just harm the baby, but even make it impossible for me to ever conceive again! "Mommy, it was me! I protected you!" I caressed my pregnant belly, listening as the child inside told me that he was the incarnation of a lucky star, sent to bring me good fortune. Because of this, we even gave him the nickname Lucky. And sure enough, under his guidance, I helped my husband secure numerous contracts. The whole family was overjoyed. I grew to love him even more, consuming precious supplements as if they were free. Within just three months, my family's assets grew tenfold, while I grew thirty pounds. Just as I stuffed the roast pork into my mouth, I heard a weak, faint voice. "Mom, don't listen to him! He was switched into your womb, and he stole my good luck! "If you continue listening to him, he'll be the death of us both after he's born!" Confused, I stopped eating. Who was I to believe, when there were two voices within my womb?

What Are Popular Tropes In Fatgum X Reader Stories?

4 Answers2026-04-24 01:39:10
Fatgum x reader fics totally thrive on that comforting vibe where he's this big, protective softie who'd literally take a bullet for you. One trope I adore is the 'size difference' angle—authors love playing up how tiny the reader feels next to him, whether he's bundling them in his coat or just looming over them (sweetly, of course). There's also tons of hurt/comfort where he fusses over the reader's injuries, all guilt-ridden because 'I should've been there.' And let's not forget the classic 'accidental cuddling'—falling asleep on him during movie night and waking up to his rumbling laugh. Another huge one is the 'hero worship' dynamic, where the reader starts off idolizing him, only to realize he's just a dork who eats too much takoyaki. The flustered moments when he catches them staring? Chef's kiss. Some fics even dive into his insecurities about his weight, with the reader reassuring him—it’s cheesy but hits right in the feels. Oh, and cooking together! Bonus points if he burns everything but the rice.

How Does Fatgum Show Affection In Fatgum X Reader Fics?

4 Answers2026-04-24 10:35:57
Fatgum's affection in fics is this warm, enveloping thing—like being wrapped in a literal and metaphorical hug. He’s got this boisterous personality, so his love language often involves food (obviously) and playful teasing. I’ve seen fics where he’ll cook massive meals for the reader, insisting they try everything, or sneak extra snacks into their bag with a wink. But what really gets me is the quieter moments: him accidentally dozing off with their head on his stomach, or his voice softening when he checks in after a tough day. It’s the mix of his larger-than-life energy and those unexpected gentle touches that make his character so endearing. Some writers lean into his hero persona too, like him shielding the reader during fights or fussing over minor injuries. There’s always this underlying protectiveness, but never in a stifling way—more like he’s your biggest cheerleader. And let’s not forget the humor! His affection often comes with dad jokes or ridiculous nicknames, which just adds to the charm. The best fics balance his cannon traits with deeper vulnerability, like him hesitating before confessing because he worries his size might intimidate them. It’s sweet, relatable, and totally on-brand for him.

Why Do Fans Ship Fatgum X Kirishima Together?

3 Answers2026-04-29 12:35:38
The dynamic between Fatgum and Kirishima in 'My Hero Academia' is just so heartwarming, it’s no surprise fans adore them as a pair. Fatgum’s mentorship style is this perfect blend of tough love and genuine care, and Kirishima’s earnestness makes him the ideal student. Their mutual respect and the way they push each other to grow—especially during the Shie Hassaikai arc—creates this energy that feels deeper than just hero and sidekick. There’s a vulnerability there, too; Fatgum’s guilt over not protecting Tamaki contrasts with Kirishima’s own insecurities, and their shared moments of reassurance hit like emotional gut punches. Fandom often latches onto relationships that highlight emotional support, and these two deliver that in spades. Plus, their visual contrast—big, soft Fatgum and sharp, fiery Kirishima—adds a fun aesthetic layer. Shipping thrives on 'what ifs,' and their bond leaves so much room for imagining quieter, sweeter scenarios beyond battlefield camaraderie. I’ve seen fanworks explore everything from post-mission comfort to Fatgum helping Kirishima through post-traumatic stress, and it all feels oddly plausible because the foundation is already there in canon.

How Did Fatgum And Kirishima Meet In My Hero Academia?

3 Answers2026-04-29 06:37:17
Fatgum and Kirishima's first meeting is one of those moments that just sticks with you because of how perfectly it highlights their personalities. It happens during Kirishima's work-study at Fatgum's agency in Season 4. From the second they interact, you can tell Fatgum's this big, jovial guy who’s all about lifting others up—literally and figuratively. He’s got this infectious energy, and Kirishima, who’s already super earnest and determined, just vibes with it immediately. Their dynamic is golden because Fatgum sees Kirishima’s potential right away and pushes him to grow, while Kirishima respects the heck out of Fatgum’s strength and kindness. What I love is how their bond isn’t just about mentorship; it’s mutual admiration. Fatgum admires Kirishima’s unbreakable spirit (fitting, given his Quirk), and Kirishima learns to embrace his own strengths under Fatgum’s guidance. The way they team up later against Rappa is pure hype—it’s where their trust and growth really shine. It’s rare to see a hero-student relationship where both sides feel so equally impactful, and that’s why their scenes are some of my favorites in the series.

Are There Any Fatgum X Kirishima Moments In The Anime?

Fatgum and Kirishima's dynamic in 'My Hero Academia' is one of those mentor-student relationships that just hits differently. Their interactions during the Shie Hassaikai arc are packed with mutual respect and growth. Fatgum’s cheerful, protective nature contrasts so well with Kirishima’s fiery determination, and seeing them fight side by side against Rappa was pure adrenaline. The way Fatgum boosts Kirishima’s confidence, especially when he calls him 'Red Riot,' feels like a big brother hyping up his sibling. Their bond isn’t just about combat, though. There’s this subtle emotional layer where Fatgum recognizes Kirishima’s insecurities and helps him overcome them. The moment Kirishima unlocks his Unbreakable form while Fatgum cheers him on? Chills. It’s not romantic, but it’s deeply affectionate in a way that resonates with anyone who’s had a mentor believe in them when they didn’t believe in themselves.

Why Is Fatgum A Fan Favorite In My Hero Academia?

4 Answers2026-06-20 20:41:41
Fatgum's popularity isn't just about his design—though let's be real, that fluffy hero costume is instantly iconic. What really hooks fans is how he subverts expectations. Here's this round, cheerful guy who could easily be comic relief, but then he turns out to be one of the most strategically brilliant heroes in the series. His fight alongside Tamaki against the Yakuza wasn't just action-packed; it showed his genius at adapting his Quirk mid-battle. And that moment when he transferred his fat to shield others? Pure chills. Then there's his mentorship vibe. Unlike some pros who just bark orders, Fatgum genuinely builds up his interns' confidence. Remember how he handled Kirishima's self-doubt? The way he ties hero work to personal growth makes him feel like the cool uncle everyone wishes they had. Plus, his dynamic with Rappa—turning an enemy into a mutual respect situation—adds layers most shonen villains never get.

Why Is Fatgum X Reader Such A Popular Ship?

4 Answers2026-04-24 08:24:05
Fatgum's character design in 'My Hero Academia' is such a breath of fresh air—he’s this big, cuddly hero with a heart of gold, and that contrast between his intimidating size and his gentle personality makes him incredibly endearing. There’s something deeply comforting about how he embodies both strength and warmth, which makes him perfect for reader-insert fics where people crave that sense of safety and affection. The ship thrives because it taps into the fantasy of being protected and cherished by someone who’s unapologetically kind, even in a high-stakes world like 'MHA'. Plus, his dynamic with Tamaki highlights his nurturing side, and fans love projecting that onto a reader-character relationship. It’s not just about romance; it’s about the emotional intimacy of someone who’d literally shield you from harm while also being a goofball. The fandom’s creativity runs wild with scenarios—fluffy domestic moments, hurt/comfort, or even angst where the reader helps him during his post-overhaul recovery. It’s a ship that feels grounded in his canon personality, which makes it easy to root for.

What Are The Best Fatgum X Kirishima Fanfictions To Read?

Oh wow, diving into the world of Fatgum and Kirishima fanfics feels like stepping into a treasure trove of found family vibes and heartwarming dynamics. One that absolutely wrecked me in the best way is 'Weight of Gold'—it’s this slow burn where Fatgum becomes this mentor figure who helps Kirishima unpack his insecurities about strength and self-worth. The writing is so tender, and the action scenes? Chef’s kiss. It balances their hero work with these quiet moments where Kirishima learns to embrace vulnerability, and Fatgum’s dad energy is off the charts. Another gem is 'Thicker Than Blood,' which cranks up the angst but delivers such a satisfying emotional payoff. It explores Kirishima’s backstory with a twist, and Fatgum’s protectiveness hits differently here. The author nails their banter, making the lighter moments feel earned. Bonus points for weaving in Tamaki in a way that doesn’t overshadow their bond. If you’re into AU settings, 'Counterweight' reimagines them as a detective duo in a noir-inspired universe—think gritty alleyway fights and Fatgum’s iconic coat flapping dramatically. The chemistry is more platonic but no less compelling.
