For anyJujutsu Kaisenfans of either the Japanese or English dub who are wondering if they have heard the elusive and handsome Toji Fushiguro’s voice floating around in other series, here are some of the most popular animes thatJapanese voice actor, Takehito Koyasu, andEnglish voice actor, Nicolas Roye, have been featured in.
8English VA: Tokyo Revengers - Kisaki Tetta
While Roye voicesJJK’s Toji, he also voices yet another infamous antagonist in theTokyo RevengersEnglish dub. Kisaki is the main antagonist in the series and always seems to be a step and a half ahead ofcrybaby protagonist, Takemichi.
Kisaki is cold and calculated and is only ever seen smiling when he’s finally won and manipulated everyone around him to get his way. Toji and Kisaki aren’t too different; they both are determined antagonists who won’t hesitate to kill to achieve their goals. Because of their similarities in personality and methods, Roye’s work inTokyo Revengersis rather easy to pick out as JJK’s fellow assassin, Toji.
7Japanese VA: Ouran High School Host Club - Ryoji “Ranka” Fujioka
Ouran High School Host Club’s protagonist, Haruhi, often visits her loving (sometimes overly protective) father, Ryoji (also known by his stage name Ranka) for advice or just to check in. Just like Ranka’s appearance, his voice ranges from a light, feminine melody to a deep, commanding tone (usually when he’s angry).
Every so often, the famous cross-dressingOurandad lets out his more intimidating side, sounding almost exactly like tough-guy Toji. Toji could only wish to beas good of a fatheras the famous Ryoji Ranka Fujioka.
6English VA: Sailor Moon R/Crystal - Shingo Tsukino
The prolificSailor Moonseries has spawned many spin-offs and films that expand on the overall Sailor Guardian universe. Among the plethora ofSailor Moonspin-offs areSailor Moon RandPretty Guardian Sailor Moon: Crystalanimated series. Surprisingly enough, Toji’s voice actor takes the role of young Shingo Tsukino in the English dub of both series.

Shingo is protagonist Usagi’srebellious younger brotherand is often known to pick on Usagi, despite being the younger sibling. As expected, Roye’s voice when playing Shingo is much higher and sounds almost unrecognizable asJJK’s bloodthirsty Toji Fushiguro.
5Japanese VA: One Piece - Admiral Aokiji (Kuzan)
Admiral Aokiji served as an antagonist for a handful ofOne Piece’s arcs as a Marine Admiral before eventuallyjoining Blackbeard’s Crew. Despite his immense power and authority, he has a very laid-back attitude and overall lazy personality.
When voicingOne Piece’s Kuzan, Koyasu keeps a similar tone to Toji in his voice but adds a touch of calm and levelheadedness to Kuzan’s portrayal. While to two do sound very similar and are easy to pin as sharing the same voice actor, Kuzan’s lazy cadence is what sets him apart from the stern Toji Fushiguro.
4English VA: Twin Star Exorcists - Tooru Fushihara
Twin Star Exorcistsis all about the world of banishing andexorcizing evil spiritsand follows protagonists Rokuro Enmado and Benio Adashino. During their journey together, they meet fellow exorcist Tooru Fushihara who operates in Magano.
Fushihara is an exorcist of Mainland at Ayame City Branch and also cares for children at a daycare when he is not busy with his other duties. While it may be a surprise to some, Toji’s English voice actor Roye also playsTwin Star Exorcists' Tooru Fushihara.
3Japanese VA: Moomin - Snufkin
It may be a surprise to many, but the beloved vagabond that occasionally visits Moomin and his friends in Moominvalley is actually voiced by Koyasu. The soft-spoken Snufkin in theMoominJapanese dub (the series originally from Finland) may seem much too calm (and kind) to share the same voice as the ruthless Toji Fushiguro.

However, when listening closely, die-hard fans ofJJKmay be able to pick out the similar toneMoomin’s Snufkin has to Toji as the wise little Snufkin sounds just like Toji if he were ten times more calm and ahundred times more kind.
2English VA: Bungo Stray Dogs - Chuuya Nakahara
Bungo Stray Dogs' Chuuya Nakahara is amember of the Port Mafiaand is known for his arrogant, flashy attitude. Despite being Dazai’s former partner in Twin Dark, he and Dazai are constantly seen bickering and picking on one another.
Chuuya is haughty, and always interested in showing off his combat skills. When voicing the short-tempered Chuuya inBungo Stray Dogs, Roye uses a higher-pitched, energetic voice; contrary to the overly-serious and tough Toji, making the two sound entirely different.
1Japanese VA: Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure - Dio Brando
Dio Brando isJojo’s Bizarre Adventure’s main antagonist throughout the series and takes the form of a powerful, immortal vampire and Stand User. Dio isa famous villainnot just in theJJBAworld, but in the world of all anime, and is known for being incredibly ruthless, bloodthirsty (no pun intended), and power-hungry.
As both Toji and Dio are merciless killers in their respective series, Koyasu’s voice is recognizable in an instant. The low, intimidating cadence of their speech and the commanding nature of their words make the pair easy to pick out as characters that share the talented Takehito Koyasu’s unique voice.
(Bonus) English VA: Jujutsu Kaisen - Junpei Yoshino
Although Junpei’s arc was a little while back (all the way in season one), fans may recognize Toji’s voice coming from a much more sympathetic character. Before Roye went on to voice Toji in season two ofJJK, he first appeared in season one as yet another fan favorite, Junpei Yoshino.
Hopefully, if Roye gets another gig in theJJKseries in the future, he’ll have a longer stay as a regular.
