Ever wondered who's the seiyuu (voice actor) responsible behind your favorite anime character?
I've been watching anime since I was 5 years old and it never occurred to me that some male characters in an anime are voiced by female voice actresses until a few years ago. So when I hear their voices in an episode, I quickly browse the net for their voice actors and actresses just to make sure.
So here's a list of some anime characters (male and young boys) that are voiced by a female seiyuu:
Paku Romi
- Hyuuga Natsume of Gakuen Alice
- Hitsugaya Toushirou of Bleach
- Igarashi Ganta of Deadman Wonderland
- Edward Elric of Fullmetal Alchemist
- Heimdall of Mythical Detective Loki
- Okamoto Katsushiro of Samurai 7
Minagawa Junko
- Yun of Akatsuki no Yona
- Echizen Ryouma of Tenisu no Ouji-sama
- Oz Vessalius of Pandora Hearts
- Kaidou Ren of Super Lovers
- Ion Fortuna of Trinity Blood
Sanpei Yuuko
- Ryuu of Akagami no Shirayuki-hime
- Uzumaki Boruto of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations
- Renton Thurston of Eureka Seven
- Kurama Shinjirou of Kamisama Hajimemashita
Kaida Yuki
- Katsura Kotarou of Gintama
- Fuji Shuusuke of Tenisu no Ouji-sama
- Kurapika of Hunter x Hunter
- Fuji Yuuta of Tenisu no Ouji-sama
Tomatsu Haruka
- Sakata Gintoki of Gintama
Kitamura Eri
- Gray Fullbuster of Fairy Tail
- Kamijou Hiroki of Junjou Romantica
- Gareki of Karneval
- Nura Rihan of Nurarihyon no Mago
- Nura Rikuo of Nurarihyon no Mago
- Yamaguchi Kenji of Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
Mitsuhashi Kanako
- Killua Zoldyck of Hunter x Hunter
Ogata Megumi
- Tsukishiro Yukito of Cardcaptor Sakura
- Rio Izumi of Fullmoon wo Sagashite
- Takenori Akagi of Slam Dunk
Saiga Mitsuki
- Teito Klein of 07-Ghost
- Wolfram von Bielefeld of Kyou Kara Maou!
- Sakuya Nijou of Norn9
- Sanjou Kairi of Shugo Chara!
That's all for now. Compiling them is not really easy. Some are main leads and some are just supporting characters. But it's really a surprise when you know some manly characters voiced by a woman.
