About Hiroshi Kamiya
He was born on January 28, 1975.
In parallel with his voice acting and narration work, he also focuses on singing activities under his name and is also active as a radio personality.
He loves animals, especially cats, and he has a cat (Russian Blue) named "Nyanko-sensei" at his home.
In his private life, he is the father of one child.
According to him, he has a "very negative personality and doubts everything", so he sympathizes with Nozomu Itoshiki who played in "Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei".
In 2006, he was hospitalized due to a traffic accident while driving a motorcycle.
The company did not disclose what kind of accident he had.
It took nearly a month for him to regain consciousness due to this accident, and although he was in a dangerous state such as cardiopulmonary arrest at one point.
He made a remarkable recovery, regained consciousness, and was discharged from the hospital.
After that, he continued rehabilitation and returned to the role of Teruma Kamioka in the final episode of the "Crash B-Daman" broadcast.
While he was in the hospital, his friends gave him a cross necklace as a talisman, wishing for his recovery.
After leaving the hospital, he wore it almost every day, and he now carries it around in his bag to keep it from getting damaged.
Since he was a child, he's been a fan of Gundam and dreamed of riding one.
He said the good thing about becoming a voice actor is that he played the role of Captain Gundam in "Superior Defender Gundam Force".
When he went around the "GUNDAM BIG EXPO" booth for the project, he talked in detail about the exhibition toys in the same work corner and said that
I still have many displayed at home.
Along with Gundam, he is also famous for his love of special effects.
Biography of Hiroshi Kamiya
He is one of the few who played all the main characters in the original works of
- Weekly Shōnen Sunday
- Weekly Shōnen Magazine
- Weekly Shōnen Jump
The three major weekly shonen manga magazines.
His voice acts as
- Junichiro Kagami in Ultimate Otaku Teacher
- Nozomu Itoshiki in Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei
- Kusuo Saiki in The Disastrous Life of Saiki K
Furthermore, there is also a common point that the main character who played is wearing glasses.
After retiring from the karate club when he was in his third year of high school, he joined a drama club created by a friend and won an individual performance award at a competition.
After that, he aspired to be an actor and applied to an art university, but failed the exam.
After worrying about his career path, he entered a voice actor training school without knowing that it was a voice actor training school.
His first job was as a student in a drama CD.
A few years after his debut, he did much narration work.
However, as a voice actor, it was a bit of a late-blooming breakthrough, and although he made his debut in 1994, it was after 10 years that he really took off.
Until then, he had gained a certain amount of recognition and popularity, but it is hard to say that he is on the front line, so compared to the voice actors of the same period, the breakout characters are biased toward works from the late 2000s.
“ONE PIECE” is famous for the episode that shows the difference between the early days and after the breakthrough in popularity.
In the same work, he appeared in a minor role such as Pirate A from the first episode, but he rarely played named characters.
After more than 10 years, when he performed "TRAFALGAR LAW", he said with joy that he was an "upstart" by himself.
This was triggered by the reality that someone else would take away the role he played or was supposed to play after recovering from the accident.
As a result, he begins to actively participate in auditions, thinking,
I'd rather go get my job than let someone else take it away.
This was what drove him to become popular.
Mr. Kamiya's role in future anime has also been decided.
Let's look forward to his future activities.
