by Hazel

Excitement stirs among One Piece fans as the long-running anime series introduces a new voice actor for the enigmatic character Dragon, leader of the Revolutionary Army and father to protagonist Luffy. Reports had previously hinted at the anime’s search for fresh talent to portray the elusive figure, and now, the role has been filled. Stepping into the shoes of Dragon is none other than Kazuhiro Inoue, renowned for his iconic portrayal of Kakashi in Naruto.

At 69 years old, Inoue brings his seasoned expertise to the role, taking over from Hidekatsu Shibata, who turns 87 later this month. Shibata, known for his memorable performances as Hiruzen Sarutobi in Naruto and Igneel in Fairy Tail, has gradually scaled back his involvement in recent years, paving the way for Inoue to assume the mantle of Dragon in One Piece.
