Trending New-Generation Anime Characters (1–10)
Shinobu Kocho
The anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba has become an unprecedented hit.
Whether you’re an anime fan or not, you’ve probably seen it at least once.
If you want to do a voice impression from the series—and preferably a female character—Shinobu Kocho is a great choice.
Shinobu is known for her slender appearance and gentle tone, yet it’s striking how she sometimes delivers rather scary lines.
That contrast makes it fun to perform for others.
Try listening to Saori Hayami’s voice repeatedly and master it.

Anya
Among the popular anime SPY×FAMILY, Anya is especially beloved, isn’t she? Her charm lies in how she expresses her thoughts and feelings straightforwardly with her halting way of speaking.
When she refers to Loid as “chichi” and Yor as “haha,” those are signature phrases to remember.
It’s important to capture the key points of her innocent, wholehearted reactions to things she sees for the first time and the way she enjoys everyday life.
Keeping that in mind is essential for doing a cute impression of her.
Muneshirō Hoshina
Soshiro Hoshina, the character with a memorable Kansai dialect who appears in Kaiju No.
8, is so popular he even ranked first in character popularity polls.
In the anime, he’s voiced by Kengo Kawanishi, who has appeared in many hit series.
Try impersonating him by aiming for a breezy, nonchalant vibe with a light touch.
Going slightly higher-pitched, lighter, and with more breath might work well.
He’s also known for being quick to laugh, so when you laugh, really go for it.
It’s good to create a contrast with his usual casual conversation so that the difference stands out.
rabbit
The rabbit from Chiikawa doesn’t have any difficult lines, so it’s an easy character to try for both kids and adults.
Instead of proper words, it mostly uses sound effects like “Yaha,” “Haa,” and “Puruya,” so you can give it a go without trying too hard.
Basically, the energy level is high, so the key is to go all-out without feeling shy! You can even do it quickly during work breaks or school recess, so definitely give it a try.
Serpo alien
Serpo, a slightly creepy character appearing in Dandadan.
In the anime, he’s voiced by Kazuya Nakai, who has appeared in numerous popular works.
When doing an impression, the key is to really lean into the creepiness and grossness.
Doing it with a half-smirk might be the best approach! Even a harmless line like “Please give me a banana” becomes terrifying to anyone who’s seen the series, so try startling those around you with it!
Draluc
The romance manga from Weekly Shonen Champion that got an anime adaptation, The Vampire Dies in No Time.
How about its protagonist, the vampire Draluc? Perhaps because he’s a vampire over 200 years old, his speech has an air of aristocracy, like he’s putting on a refined act—that’s the impression he gives.
A tip to get closer is to project your voice a bit deeper than your usual speaking voice.
If you can mimic Draluc—in other words, imitate his voice actor Jun Fukuyama—you can also pull off Lelouch from Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion and Ichimatsu Matsuno from Mr.
Osomatsu!
Jinhachi the Artistically Gifted
Ego Jinpachi, a key figure in Blue Lock, is a character who pierces to the core of people with theoretical words while burning with a fierce passion inside.
His distinctive way of speaking is perfect for impersonation, and quotes like “Now, shine, you raw gems of talent.
It’s time to awaken,” resonate powerfully even when delivered quietly.
His rhetoric—both provocative in its logic and overflowing with suppressed passion—makes his speech an ideal target for impressionists.
Focusing not only on the voice, but also on timing, gaze, and facial expressions will make it feel even more authentic.
A hallmark character of the new era who speaks of intellect and ego.
