J. Michael Tatum is one of the newer American voice actors and ADR directors working for [[FU NimationFUNimation]]. Notably breaking out with Kyoya of ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'', his roles seem to have an academic, calm, cool, and collected theme...though that can [[Not So Stoic|break]] every once in a while. He's also one of the co-hosts of ''[[That Anime Show]]'' with Terri Doty.
 
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 ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]''.
Line 45:
 
* [[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 -Bomb]]: On ''[[That Anime Show]]'', though it's a bit less noticeable with Terri as the cohost.
* [[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 ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' fanboy to say the least, and he did ''not'' turn down the chance to be on ''Pokemon'' even if it meant flying to New York. He has quoted ''[[Family Guy]]'' on a few occasions.
