Kenjiro Tsuda nails Manji’s voice—equal parts exhausted and lethal. It’s funny because Tsuda often plays characters who sound like they’d rather be napping (see: Seto Kaiba in recent 'Yu-Gi-Oh!' stuff), but when Manji snaps into fight mode, his voice drops to this terrifying register. Pro tip: Listen to him in 'Tokyo Revengers' as South; same energy, but cranked to 11. Tsuda’s Manji feels like the midpoint between that and his laid-back Katsuragi in 'Sk8 the Infinity.'

Manji's voice in 'The Blade of the Immortal' anime is brought to life by the talented Kenjiro Tsuda. His gravelly, world-weary tone fits the immortal swordsman perfectly—like he's seen centuries of bloodshed and still can't be bothered to care. Tsuda's range is insane, though; he also voices Nanami in 'Jujutsu Kaisen,' who's all smooth sarcasm, and Overhaul in 'My Hero Academia,' dripping with creepy intensity. It's wild how he flips between roles.

I first noticed him in 'Golden Kamuy,' where he played Ogata, another morally gray sniper with a death wish. Dude specializes in giving villains (or antiheroes like Manji) this hypnotic, almost lazy menace. When Manji growls about cutting down a hundred more men, you believe it because Tsuda sounds like he's already done it a thousand times before.

Kenjiro Tsuda! The man’s voice is like whiskey poured over gravel—rough but weirdly hypnotic. What’s cool is how he contrasts Manji’s brutality with this... almost bored delivery? Like slaughtering fools is just Tuesday for him. If you wanna fall down a Tsuda rabbit hole, check out 'Banana Fish' (he voices Dino, a sleazy mafia boss) or 'The Case Study of Vanitas' (he’s the flamboyant vampire Noé).

Fun detail: Tsuda also voiced Manji in the 2019 live-action movie’s promotional anime shorts. Dude’s got a monopoly on the character at this point. Even in games, he’s everywhere—Kuroo in 'Haikyuu!!' games, Tatsu in 'Way of the Househusband.' Manji might be his grittiest role, though. That ‘I’ll kill you, but I’ll yawn first’ energy is iconic.
