Grim’s Voice Actor Sugiyama Noriaki

Grim’s seiyuu Sugiyama Noriaki has been voice acting since 1999. 

His first recurring role in an anime was as the voice of Uchiha Sasuke in Naruto. He is also the voice of Ishida Uryuu in Bleach and Emiya Shirou in Fate/stay night.

An in-depth interview with Sugiyama on voice acting as a whole and voicing Grim in particular was published in the Twisted Wonderland Official Fanbook (vol.1), translated here ▶︎

He also does dubs of foreign movies and cartoons, providing the Japanese-language voices of Bloo from Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends and Kevin Levin from Ben 10.

Sugiyama has a video game-based YouTube channel which sounds not dissimilar to Grim playing video games.
