Yuuki Kaji once again dominated the polls this season with his performance as Eren Yeager in Attack on Titan: The Final Season Part 2 and Nishikata in Teasing Master Takagi. It’s also worth mentioning that he was the best male seiyuu in the first-ever seiyuu poll Anime Corner held. On the other hand, veteran seiyuu Katsuyuki Konishi who voiced Tengen Uzui from Demon Slayer: Entertainment District Arc ranked second followed by a rookie seiyuu, Shouya Ishige who voiced this season’s best boy Gojo Wakana.
The winter anime season of 2022 had a handful of rookie seiyuus that voiced the characters we loved. It’s also nice to see some of them get the recognition they deserve. Needless to say, the veteran and prominent seiyuus also made this season complete. The winter season may have concluded but the upcoming seasons still have a lot to offer. Rest assured, this won’t be the last time we will hear these voices.
We also would like to thank you for taking part in our Winter 2022 Seiyuu of the Season polls. We look forward to hearing more from you in future surveys.
