He saves Eren and Mikasa, showing character development from a drunken soldier to a selfless hero. The show gives depth to even secondary characters like Hannes, including the meaning behind their names.
3. Tatsu in The Way Of The House Husband

The voice actor Tsuda does a great job with both the funny and serious moments in the show, and Tatsu’s intimidating presence adds humor to everyday tasks like shopping.
2. Kishibe in Chainsaw Man
In the first season of Chainsaw Man, Kishibe may not have a lot of screen time, but every time he appears, it’s very memorable. He debuts in episode 10 when he’s assigned to train the main characters, Denji and Power.
The training scenes are both funny and unique because Kishibe’s tough methods clash with Denji and Power’s humorous approach. Tsuda’s portrayal of Kishibe with his clever and dry humor makes the character a fan favorite for a good reason.
1. Jigen/Isshiki Ōtsutsuki in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations
Tsuda has a strong voice and plays the villain Isshiki and his vessel Jigen in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. Isshiki is a major villain in Boruto, and Naruto has to use his super-strong Baryon Mode to have a chance against him.
Regardless of how fans feel about Boruto overall, the fight between Isshiki and Naruto is a standout moment, and Tsuda’s performance makes the character even scarier. While Tsuda has played scarier villains before, few are as powerful or leave as big of an impact as Isshiki.
