Tetsu Inada

Tetsu Inada voiced Nappa, Vegeta's dimwitted but devastatingly powerful Saiyan companion in Dragon Ball Z. Inada's delivery emphasized Nappa's brutish nature and explosive temper, making him memorable despite his limited screen time before the Saiyans' defeat. He also voiced Bizu and Mad Chilli in Dragon Ball GT, and Lord Slug in the film Dragon Ball: Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans. In Dragon Ball Kai, he provided the voice of South Supreme Kai, continuing his association with the franchise across its various continuities. His role as Shisami in Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' added to his catalog of secondary but impactful characters.

Based at Aoni Production since birth year 1972, Inada has maintained steady work across anime voice acting. While Dragon Ball remains his most recognized work, he has contributed to numerous other anime productions, establishing himself as a reliable performer for both major and supporting roles across the industry.
