One Piece: Ace Gets Illustration Drawn by His Japanese Voice Actor Toshio Furukawa

Toshio Furukawa, the Japanese voice actor known for voicing Ace in ONE PIECE, shared his own illustration of the character. Furukawa voiced the character from his first appearance in ONE PIECE Episode 99 (2001). We got to interview the veteran voice actor at last year’s NYC, and he spoke to us about his career, the industry, and his favorite characters.

Although he told us that Piccolo (from Dragon Ball) was his favorite, he also shared that ONE PIECE was one of his favorite works and that he didn’t want to go to the recording studio ahead of the episode where Ace died. You can see his illustration of the character below.
