[[J. Michael Tatum]] is one of the newer American voice actors and ADR directors working for [[
Is known to be [[One of Us|a huge nerd]] who is particularly enamored with classy things like Literature with a capital L. Namely, really thick books and [[Shakespeare]]. He once read ''Beowolf'' in Old English. This works to his advantage whenever they need a script writer for a show with tons of intellectual content or sophisticated grammar (''[[Hero Tales]]'', ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]''). However, he is also a fan of many other considerably less intellectual things, such as ''[[
Not entirely unlike a Texas equivalent of [[Crispin Freeman]]; both actors have a very similar vocal range, both play similar characters, both are anime fans themselves, both share a similar academic/intellectual bent off-the-job, and both have dubbed roles [[Ghost in

{{creatortropes}}
* [[Adorkable]]: In real life. However, he tends not to play these characters very often in fiction because of the lower register of his voice.
* [[Cluster F
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: Kyoya and Tobias. Sebastian falls more under [[Affably Evil]].
* [[Large Ham]]: Eneru, William, Isaac, France.
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: Sebastian, while [[Affably Evil]], is still Evil with a capital E, and somewhat terrifying (unless you're an obsessive fangirl). However, Mr. Tatum is one of the friendliest, sweetest, funniest men you could ever hope to meet.
* [[The Nicknamer]]: He gives all his guest-stars a nickname on ''[[That Anime Show]]''.
* [[One of Us]]: Pretty big ''[[
* [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor]]: either [[The Stoic]] or the [[Villains]]. However...
** [[Man of a Thousand Voices]]: fans will argue that his voice work as France in Hetalia (which requires him to pull off a French accent) helped his vocal range greatly. The director of the dub said Tatum was the only cast member who could actually do an authentic accent of his character, even though he wanted him to go with an exaggerated, [[Straw Man]], funny one.
*** Compare his roles as [[Heroic Age
*** He had a speech impediment as a child and was trained to talk properly under a woman from the UK. Explains a lot.
* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]: With [[Brina Palencia]], who [[The Prankster|constantly plays pranks on him.]]
Line 59 ⟶ 58:
* [[The Stoic]]: some of his characters are like this, particularly Kyoya
* [[Stoic Spectacles]]: Kyoya and Scar, not to mention his own.
* [[
* [[Villains]]: If he's not voicing a stoic, then he's most likely to voice a villain. Some of the well known villains he voiced included [[Fullmetal Alchemist|an anti-villain turned anti-hero]], [[Soul Eater|an Ax Crazy villain]], and recently [[Black Butler|a villain protagonist]]. According to him, this is one of his favorite tropes he like to voice with.
