J Michael Tatum 

John Michael Tatum born May 25, 1976 in McKinney, Texas is an American voice actor, ADR director, and script writer at Funimation who voices for a number of English versions of anime series, and video games.

He has played many different characters to name a few of his characters constantly mentioned in panels are Rintaro Okabe in Steins;Gate, Rikichi in Samurai 7, Kyoya Ootori in Ouran High School Host Club, Sebastian Michaelis in Black Butler and France in Hetalia: Axis Powers.

Numerous times, he has expressed his deep love for anime, Doctor Who, Vincent Price, and William Shakespeare. If you have seen any anime he has worked on and seen a panel that he has been in on YouTube or something like that, you would know he has some interesting stories and is very funny and down to earth. The list of all his works is too long so I suggest you go to wikipedia to find out if he's been the voice in your favorite anime or anime video games.
