Such is the dismal fate of Jaken.

Yūichi Nagashima (長島 雄一 Nagashima Yūichi born December 15, 1957) is a Japanese voice actor who is nowadays credited as Chō (チョー). He is most famous for playing Chō in the 1984-1991 children's show Tanken Boku no Machi, eventually becoming synonymous with the character and using the name as his stage name.

A few of Nagashima's other roles include Jaken in InuYasha, Ginnosuke Nohara in Crayon Shin-chan, Brook in One Piece, the President of Everything in Super Milk-chan, Wilson Phillips in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Misuzu Sonada in Ouran High School Host Club.

In Japanese dubbing he has dubbed the voices for Gollum in The Lord of the Rings series, Scooby-Doo in the Scooby-Doo live-action movies, Elmer Fudd in Looney Tunes media, Plankton in The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, Big Gay Al in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, I.R Baboon in Cow and Chicken, Cecil in Reboot, and Winston Zeddemore in Ghostbusters.

Notes

  • In the preview for "Fierce Battle at the Bottom of the Lake", Nagashima announces a fictional ditty called "Blitzwing's Song". He apparently pulled a similar gag during the ending credits of Beast Machines when he was playing the role of Savage/Noble.
