Bryce Papenbrook (born February 24, 1986), [1] sometimes credited as Bryce Rothstein, is an American voice actor. He is a prolific performer, with hundreds of credits across film, television, and video games, and is known in particular for his work on English-language anime dubs.
Bryce Papenbrook's parents were both voice actors. At a young age, Bryce says he accompanied his father to a Power Rangers recording session. The director needed a child voice actor, and the senior Papenbrook volunteered his son—"that was it, I was a voice actor," said the younger Papenbrook.
Papenbrook attended UCLA for political science and philosophy. He planned to go to law school and also trained in martial arts, contemplating a career as a Muay Thai fighter. But he had already booked a voice acting role and instead decided to focus on his voice acting career. [2] [3]
Papenbrook is best known for his work in English dubs of Japanese anime. His credits are numerous and he has voiced both major characters and a multitude of smaller roles. Some of his most famous roles include Eren Yeager in Attack on Titan and Kirito in Sword Art Online .
Papenbrook has also worked in film, non-Japanese animation, and has dozens of credits in video games.
Papenbrook is an avid martial artist, practicing American Tang Soo Do. He has also worked as a kickboxing instructor in addition to voice acting. Papenbrook and his wife have three children together. [4] [5] [ better source needed ]
