Ugaki’s portrayal of the muscular, manly-man Higashi made the main cast shine back when the series aired. Part of the main cast, Higashi is an important character that provides not only comic relief but is also responsible for helping making the story progress by providing training to Toshihiko Sanada, character voiced by fellow 81 Produce talent, Shinichiro Miki. Ugaki was casted to voice Denji Higashi in the 1996 sports anime, Ganbarist! Shun. During this 4-year span, he voiced a wide array of random and secondary characters and 1 main role. This period proved to be important for Ugaki to build up his repertoire in hopes of nailing yet another main or leading role in an anime series. Ugaki started to be typecasted for characters that were big, imposing or, in contrast, family figures, due to his considerably deep and hearty manly voice. Ugaki’s performance as a man wanting to repent for his sins, made Gulskii an interesting cast in the classic anime series.įrom 1995 onwards, Ugaki started to be casted often in the role of “father” or “uncle” to characters in anime series such as Azuki-chan (1995), Yanbou Ninbou Tonbou (1995), Chou Mashin Eiyuuden Wataru (1997), Pokemon (1999), Bouken Ou Beet (2004), Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live (2014), just to name a few. Gulskii is not a main character in the anime series but still holds some importance in the main story. Another character that stood out during this period was Argo Gulskii in the mecha anime, Mobile Fighter G Gundam (1994).
