Yūichi Nagashima (長島 雄一 Nagashima Yūichi), nowadays credited as Chō (チョー), is a Japanese voice actor born December 15, 1957 in Saitama, Japan. 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 from One Piece, the President of Everything in Super Milk-chan and as Winston Zeddemore in the Japanese dub of Ghostbusters.
