Description
Matt Hislope is an American voice actor known for his work in English-language dubs of anime series, primarily during the early 2000s. His career in the industry is most notably associated with ADV Films, a now-defunct production company that was a major player in the North American anime localization market during that era.
Hislope is best recognized for his role as Kazuki Fuuchouin in the television series GetBackers. This character, a master of a martial art that uses sharpened strings, is known for his androgynous appearance and calm yet formidable demeanor. Hislope voiced Kazuki for the duration of the series, appearing in a majority of its forty-nine episodes as a supporting character and ally to the protagonists.

Another significant credit in Hislope's filmography is the role of Mucha in the 2001 original video animation series MazinKaiser. This series is a continuation of the classic giant robot franchise Mazinger Z. Beyond these two prominent roles, Hislope provided voices for several other projects handled by ADV Films. He is credited with voicing characters including Inorganic Biker Number Two and Monga in the English dub of the 1984 film Birth. His voice work also extended to various characters in the DC animated universe, where he performed roles such as the Mad Hatter, Toyman, and Dr. Thaddeus Sivana in voice comparisons, though specific projects for these roles are not detailed.
