He has appeared in at least 2 roles with Hoshi Soichiro whereby both of their characters are close friends/comrades. The most famous of their many collaborations is in Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny, with Soichiro as Kira Yamato and Akira as Athrun Zala. A close second will be Saiyuki and its sequels, with Soichiro as Goku and Akira as Hakkai. Also, in the anime "The law of Ueki", he voices Inumaru while Hoshi Soichiro appeared as Sano Seiichirou. They also appeared together as Nanami Kai and Fujimori Sunao/Ran in the BL game Sukisho and its anime. Finally in the Meine Liebe series, the two of them again voice two friends/comrades in the forms of students Naoji (Akira) and Camus (Shouichiro).

Coincidentally, in both Meine Liebe and Saiyuki, they are both led by a character voiced by seiyu Toshihiko Seki. He voices the monk Genjou Sanzo in Saiyuki and the scholar Ludwig in Meine Liebe. Also, in Gundam Seed, Toshihiko voices Akira's "boss" and Soichiro's enemy (Toshihiko voices Rau Le Creuset while Akira does Athrun Zala and Soichiro voices Kira Yamato.).
