[[Code Geass|YES, YOUR MAJESTY!]] Jun Fukuyama is a very interesting seiyuu, when it comes to his role history. At first, you won't notice him much. He usually plays typical straightforward heroes, or someone with a childish personality (something of [[The White Prince]], or [[Idiot Hero]]). These examples include [[The Ingenue|Albert de Morcerf]] of ''[[Gankutsuou]]'', [[Idiot Hero|Kyle Dunamis]] of ''[[Tales of Destiny]] 2'' , or [[The White Prince|Touga Tenkuuji]] of ''[[Gravion]]''. Even when he tries deviating a bit as [[Bleach|Yumichika]] [[Bishonen|Ayasegawa]] in ''[[Bleach]]''... he doesn't get a lot of fame.
