  • Marth Debuted in Smash Bros: Has actually starred in a movie set in America way back in 1988 and filmed entirely in San Francisco. It was a Hong Kong production, however, and he starred with Stephen Chow there. The latter was playing one of his few serious roles.
  • Martial Pacifist: Most of his other roles.

  • Mean Character, Nice Actor: Played villainous roles from time to time after he debuted in Hollywood.
  • Nice Guy: Started a charity after he escaped the 2006 tsunami. Also tends to play this type of characters before he moved to Hollywood.
  • Shuichi Ikeda: He normally dubs his movies in Japan. Yep, that's right, Char Aznable can not only being three times faster, he can kick your ass three times faster too!
