Eric Stuart
Voice ActorEric Stuart is a longtime voice actor and musician whose 4Kids Entertainment client work made him known for playing Brock and James in the original Pokemon anime and Seto Kaiba in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters. That same 4Kids voice pool also ties him to the studio's early English dub of One Piece.
One Piece Role
Stuart's connection to One Piece runs through the same 4Kids Entertainment dubbing operation that produced his best-known Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! work, since 4Kids also handled the original English adaptation of One Piece during the mid-2000s. His specific One Piece assignment sits within that shared roster of New York area voice talent rather than as a headline role.
