Masaya Onosaka

Masaya Onosaka (小野坂 昌也, Onosaka Masaya, born October 13, 1964) is a Japanese voice actor and narrator who is affiliated with Aoni Production. He was born in Sumiyoshiku, Osaka and is a graduate of Aoni Jyaku. His nickname with other voice actors is "Yang". Onosaka is best known for being straightforward and chatty, his energetic nature making him popular for hosting radio shows. He has been criticized by some voice actors to be "too serious" at times, but his commitment to his career earns him respect. In his free time, he likes to buy expensive items, swim at the beach, play a few video games, and browse the internet. Apparently, during one of his radio shows, Onosaka took a peek at his Japanese Wikipedia page and complained about its "utter inaccuracy" on air.

A few of Onosaka's character roles include Mantaro Kinniku in Kinnikuman Nisei, Speedwagon in the Jojo's Bizzare Adventure: Phantom Blood game, and Vash the Stampede in Trigun. Although popular with female fans, Onosaka claims he will never do boys love material since he doesn't like men personally. However, he can perform fanservice lines in otome games without any hesitation. Onosaka also claims to have no memory of his participation in the Neoromance events, despite participating in several of them.

Humorously, Onosaka pointed out that none of the contestants dressed as his characters in the TGS Dynasty Warriors Cosplay Event. Out of the two characters he plays for the Dynasty Warriors series, he finds Zhao Yun to be harder to perform than Zhuge Liang. For the strategist, he keeps the same calm voice and emotion throughout his lines. Zhao Yun, on the other hand, is full of emotions and has to project his voice more. He especially struggles when Zhao Yun speaks with a quiet voice since he fears he sounds too much like Zhuge Liang when this happens.
