Benjamin Stolz is a German voice actor born on March 10, 1988, who has become a prominent figure in the dubbing of anime and other audiovisual media. His path to the profession was a gradual one, inspired by his childhood love for anime. Growing up near Hannover, he watched series broadcast during the RTL2 anime era of the late 1990s and early 2000s, where he first became aware of the art of voice acting by recognizing the same voices across different characters. A news report on the German dubbing of his favorite series, Dragonball Z, cemented his interest in the career. After initially practicing on his own, he pursued formal training, working with a vocal coach and participating in workshops. He trained under prominent figures in the German dubbing industry, including Peter Minges at the Hamburger Synchron studios and Volker Gerth at Lunatic Synchron. His first professional role came through a personal connection, a small part in an anime series that received positive feedback from the director, which encouraged him to actively pursue work in the field.

Stolz has built an extensive portfolio of anime voice work, providing the German voice for a wide array of characters. He is perhaps best known for his long-running role as the electric-powered hero Denki Kaminari in the global hit series My Hero Academia, a character he has voiced across the main series, multiple films including Two Heroes and Heroes: Rising, and other related media. Another significant early role was Yuuma Isogai in the Assassination Classroom franchise. His film work includes the role of Tomohiro Nagatsuka in the critically acclaimed A Silent Voice.

His range as a voice actor is evident in the variety of other characters he has portrayed. These include the mysterious Shuichi Kagaya in Gleipnir, the confident Terunori Kuga in Food Wars! The Third Plate, and the boastful yet determined Adlet Mayer in Rokka - Braves of the Six Flowers. He also voiced Lubbock in Akame ga Kill!, Gran in Granblue Fantasy, and Schlain "Shun" Zagan Analeit in So I'm a Spider, So What?. In the Haikyu!! franchise, he is the voice of Haruki Komi. His work also extends to non-anime animation and video games, such as voicing Luke Triton in the Detektei Layton: Katrielles rätselhafte Fälle series.
