* ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' - Koji Kouda

Due to distinctive high-pitch voice (which is unusual for a man in his 40s), he is often [[PigeonholedVoiceActor cast as young boys]], often either {{Butt Monkey}}s, cute little boys, or {{Kid Hero}}es. In fact, his voice is high-pitched enough to voice young boys that can be as young as ''8-years-old''.

* ''Manga/OnePiece'' - Cabaji the Acrobat

* OneOfUs: He's been an otaku since he was a kid.

* ''[[Manga/MahouSenseiNegima Negima!]]'' - Negi Springfield

* PlayingAgainstType: Guldo from ''Anime/DragonballKai'' is a villain. Masato Inohara from ''LightNovel/LittleBusters'' is a [[DumbMuscle tall, muscular, idiotic]] ButtMonkey. Kazama from ''VisualNovel/MajiDeWatashiNiKoiShinasai'' is a tall, charismatic and HotBlooded {{Bishonen}}.

* ''ViualNovel/DiabolikLovers'' - Azusa Mukami

* ''Anime/SpacePatrolLuluco: Machspeed

* ''Anime/DragonBallSuper''- Frost

Due to distinctive high-pitch voice (which is unusual for a man in his 40s), he is often [[PigeonholedVoiceActor cast as young boys]], often either {{Butt Monkey}}s, cute little boys, or {{Kid Hero}}es. In fact, his voice is high-pitched enough to voice young boys that can be as young as ''8-years-old''. Basically is the Texan equivalent to California's Creator/BrycePapenbrook, Creator/BenDiskin, Creator/MaxMittelman, Nicolas Roye, and Creator/MattHill. Also is the Western counterpart of Creator/RomiPark, as well as Texas's counterpart to Creator/AkiraIshida, Creator/YuukiKaji, Creator/SoichiroHoshi, Creator/NobuhikoOkamoto [[note]]In terms of shared roles, he currently shares a total of ''six'' roles with him, although it should be noted that Okamoto's vocal range is more similar to Creator/JohnnyYongBosch, Creator/BlakeShepard, and Creator/MicahSolusod rather than Greg's[[/note]], and Creator/HiroShimono. His DistaffCounterpart is Michelle Newman and in terms of vocals alone, his Distaff Japanese Counterpart could arguably be Creator/TomokoKaneda, since they both have unusually childish voices for their ages in not only in their performances, but also in real life, and their voices can be [[LoveItOrHateIt rather polarizing at times]].

* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Sometimes, he jokingly describes himself this way.
* CuteButCacophonic: His voice is unusually high for a man in his mid-40s, hence his [[PigeonholedVoiceActor typecast]] as shotas, and also why he's viewed as divisive and even a borderline CreatorsPet in the fandom when it comes with voicing characters past childhood age, the biggest examples being [[Manga/{{Karneval}} Gareki]] and [[LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana Keisaku Sato]]. In his defense, this is mostly because he's been in the business so long that his acting skills for most personality types is pretty solid, so he's cast in major roles ad nauseam. It's unfortunate that his voice doesn't always fit the ''appearance'' of who he's acting as.
* [[DigitalPiracyIsEvil Digital Piracy and Fansubs are Evil]]: Something he kind of stressed in every panel, to the point of using ''a steamroller'' [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4ognjIKR8E to destroy bootlegs]].
* GameBreakingInjury: In his youth, Greg was badly assaulted, and suffered considerable injuries to his mouth and jaw. He needed bridgework and other dental procedures to correct the issues...which over time have deteriorated and recently fallen out. A donation drive was set up to raise the ten thousand dollars needed for surgery.
** The money was raised [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming in less than two weeks]].
* {{Irony}}: Greg, as he described himself, was "an anime fan who hated English anime," on the "Sub" side of the "Sub vs Dub" debate; now he works as a voice actor for English dubs of anime.
* OlderThanHeLooks: Take one look at him; would you ever guess that he's in his mid-forties?

* SmokingIsCool: Averted. He did used to smoke, but due to fan pressure and concerns of his health, he decided to quit smoking.
* StraightGay: Is openly gay and lives with his boyfriend/fiancee.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: See the page image, he frequently dyes his hair, ranging from pink to purple to green to yellow, etc.

* CrossdressingVoices: Averted. His high-pitch allows him to voice young boys as young as 8-years-old. In fact, some of the young boy roles he gets are voiced by a woman in the Japanese dub.
** But played straight with [[spoiler:[[VisualNovel/TearsToTiara Rathy]]. Although to be fair, the director and even himself mistakes Rathy as a boy]].

* DyeHard: Does this in every convention.

* OneOfUs: He's been an otaku since he was a kid.

* PlayingAgainstType: Guldo from ''Anime/DragonballKai'' is a villain. Masato Inohara from ''LightNovel/LittleBusters'' is a [[DumbMuscle tall, muscular, idiotic]] ButtMonkey. Kazama from ''VisualNovel/MajiDeWatashiNiKoiShinasai'' is a tall, charismatic and HotBlooded {{Bishonen}}.
** There's also Hajime Muroto from ''Manga/{{Gantz}}'' while said character is a teenager, he is also a psychotic serial killer and a rapist.
* PromotedFanboy
