My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen are two of the most loved anime of recent history. If you like both anime, you might have noticed something familiar about some characters. That’s because some of the same voice actors work on both shows.
It’s amazing how one person can voice a relaxed hero in My Hero Academia. The same person can also play a scary curse user in Jujutsu Kaisen. Here are ten character pairs that share the same voice actor.
10 Pairs of My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen characters who share the same voice
1. Yuichi Nakamura as Gojo Satoru and Hawks

Gojo Satoru from Jujutsu Kaisen is aware that he is the strongest sorcerer. Wearing a blindfold to conceal his Six Eyes, he is fun and self-assured. Gojo doesn't give a damn about risky fights. However, no one can touch him when he becomes serious.
Hawks from My Hero Academia has that same relaxed vibe. He’s the number two pro hero, and he’s fast and smart. Hawks always looks calm, even when things get intense.
Both guys have this cocky but likeable thing going on. Nakamura nails their teasing, smooth-talking personalities perfectly.
2. Junichi Suwabe as Sukuna and Eraser Head

In Jujutsu Kaisen, Sukuna is an old demon called the King of Curses. He loves causing chaos and doesn’t care about anyone. He’s cold, cruel, and way too powerful. You can feel how scary he is just from the way he talks.
Eraser Head from My Hero Academia is a total opposite personality-wise, but Junichi Suwabe’s voice really suits him as well. Shota Aizawa is always exhausted and has no time for kids. He might not be as much of a showboat as the other heroes, but his quirk, Erasure, is one of the most lethal.
Suwabe gives both characters a voice that is deep and intimidating. Whether it’s Sukuna laughing at people dying or Aizawa telling students they’re expelled, the voice fits.
3. Uchiyama Kouki as Inumaki Toge and Shigaraki Tomura

Jujutsu Kaisen's Inumaki Toge can only speak in rice ball ingredients because his Cursed Speech is too powerful to use for regular conversation. He’s a good friend to have, even if he can’t talk like other people. Uchiyama Kouki has to make Inumaki’s emotions come across through things like “salmon” and “bonito flakes,” which is difficult.
Shigaraki Tomura from My Hero Academia is the complete opposite. He leads the League of Villains and just wants to destroy everything. At first, he acts like a whiny kid throwing fits, but later on, he becomes really dangerous.
You can hear how he changes from a whiny villain to a confident leader. It’s wild that Uchiyama voices both a sweet hero and one of the scariest villains ever.
4. Tsuda Kenjiro as Nanami Kento and Chisaki Kai

Nanami Kento is one of the most loved characters in Jujutsu Kaisen. He’s a salaryman turned sorcerer who treats jujutsu like a regular job. Nanami is serious, professional, and super skilled with his ratio technique. He’s also really kind, especially to Yuji. Kenjiro Tsuda gives him a low, measured tone of voice, making everything he says sound grave.
Chisaki Kai (Overhaul) is a My Hero Academia villain who can’t stand germs. He also believes himself to be a god. He’s intelligent, ruthless, and will murder anyone in his path.
Both are cool characters but have vastly different ambitions. Tsuda’s voice makes them both sound smart and cautious about everything they do.
5. Tomokazu Seki as Panda and Selkie

Jujutsu Kaisen's Panda isn’t a real panda. He has three identities and three cores, which makes him a cursed corpse. He is upbeat and optimistic, and he even faces adversity with a sense of humor. Panda is a good fighter who cares about his allies while looking cute sometimes.
My Hero Academia's Selkie is a professional hero. He does aquatic rescues and has a seal-like appearance. He is enthusiastic and upbeat, and he always has a good word to say.
Both characters are so charming because they exude such a positive kind of light. Tomokazu Seki demonstrates his ability to make non-human characters feel entirely real by bringing warmth and comedy to both parts.
6. Marina Inoue as Mai Zen'in and Yaoyorozu Momo

Mai Zen'in in Jujutsu Kaisen has a tough relationship with her twin sister, Maki. She’s bitter and sarcastic. Mai hates being part of the jujutsu world and feels trapped in it. She acts strong and mean, but deep down, she’s struggling with family pressure and self-doubt. Marina Inoue does a great job showing her attitude and emotions.
Yaoyorozu Momo from My Hero Academia is almost Mai’s opposite. Momo is kind, polite, and incredibly intelligent. Her Creation Quirk lets her make anything from her body, but she struggles with confidence despite her abilities.
Both characters deal with expectations and self-doubt in different ways. Inoue shows incredible range by voicing both the sharp-tongued Mai and the gentle Momo.
7. Tetsu Inada as Juzo Kumiya and Endeavor

Juzo Kumiya makes a small appearance in Jujutsu Kaisen. He is a Grade 1 sorcerer whose curse technique involves construction. He’s pragmatic and straight-laced, stepping in to assist on matters of great importance. He may have few scenes, but he leaves an impression.
In My Hero Academia, Endeavor took over as the new number one hero following the retirement of All Might. Enji Todoroki is fiercely competitive, hot-headed, and fixated on overtaking All Might. He is also a bad father who abused his family in the quest to make the perfect hero. Endeavor’s character development shows him trying to atone for his past.
Tetsu Inada’s powerful voice makes both characters sound authoritative and commanding.
8. Wataru Hatano as Haruta Shigemo and Hitoshi Shinsou

Haruta Shigemo in Jujutsu Kaisen is a curse user who works with the enemy during the Shibuya Incident. He’s cowardly, sadistic, and relies on his luck-based cursed technique to survive. Haruta enjoys causing pain and doesn’t care who gets hurt. He’s basically a bully with powers.
Hitoshi Shinsou from My Hero Academia is completely different. He has a brainwashing Quirk that people automatically assume makes him villainous. But Shinsou desperately wants to be a hero and prove everyone wrong. He’s determined, hardworking, and willing to push himself beyond his limits.
Wataru Hatano voices both characters with distinct energy. One is whiny and cruel, the other is tired but passionate.
9. Koichi Yamadera as Miguel and Gentle Criminal

Miguel is a Special Grade sorcerer from Jujutsu Kaisen who originally worked with Geto. He’s confident, skilled, and surprisingly reasonable for someone on the villain’s side. Miguel’s Black Rope technique made him a serious threat even to Gojo. He later shows up helping train Yuta overseas.
Gentle Criminal in My Hero Academia is an aspiring villain who commits crimes to gain internet fame. He can be a little dramatic, but he has good manners and, deep down, believes that what he is doing is meaningful. Gentle is not truly a villain; he’s simply desperate for recognition and relevance.
Koichi Yamadera brings theatrical flair to both roles, making them memorable despite limited screen time.
10. Shinichiro Miki as Atsuya Kusakabe and Sir Nighteye

Jujutsu Kaisen's Atsuya Kusakabe is a Grade 1 sorcerer and teaches at Jujutsu High. He is not the strongest person in the series, but Kusakabe is still around when it counts. His “simple domain” method is thrilling and effective, even if he doesn’t have flashy powers.
My Hero Academia’s Sir Nighteye was All Might’s previous sidekick. His Quirk is called Foresight. He’s serious and has nearly unattainable standards. Nighteye believes in fate and struggles with the visions he sees of the future.
They’re both really smart, tactical, and confident in their own ways. Shinichiro Miki gives them both a knowing, thoughtful-sounding voice.
Conclusion
My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen may be two very different tales, but they feature some of the best voice talent in anime.
The next time you tune in to either My Hero Academia or Jujutsu Kaisen, keep an ear out for these performances. You’ll see exactly how much work goes into giving these characters a sense of reality and differentiating them from one another.
