A Silent Voice Manga Dub - For Video Essay
Spencer s for Teacher (Takeuchi)
Takeuchi (竹内, Takeuchi?) is a supporting character in the Koe no Katachi series. He was the homeroom teacher of Shōya Ishida, Shōko Nishimiya and their peers during their sixth grade year at Suimon Elementary.
Personality:
Takeuchi appears to be a rather uncaring and self-righteous individual, especially in his outlook on the bullying of both Shōko Nishimiya and Shōya Ishida. Soon after Shōko’s transfer into his class, Takeuchi begins to see her as a burden and is quick to hand some of his responsibility for her onto Naoka, who is also another student he should be guiding.
Voice:
Takeuchi's voice should be calm and authoritative, with a clear and steady tone that reflects his role as a mentor and guide. His voice carries a sense of confidence and wisdom, often imbued with a subtle warmth that makes him approachable and trustworthy. There should be an underlying firmness in his voice, indicating his ability to provide guidance and support while maintaining discipline.
For best reference, refer to his voice sounding like the English Dub of Shōta Aizawa from My Hero Academia.

(Calmly attempting to get Shoko Nishimiya to introduce herself to the class) All right. Introduce yourself. *pauses* Oh... Introduce yourself.
(Calm with a hint of irritation. He is counseling Shoya Ishida) You're still the one who started it aren't you? What right does the boy who bullied Shoko have to judge his friends?
(Angrily yelling. He is fed up with Shoya Ishida) Stand up Ishida!!!! We all know it was you, you little twerp!!
