'''Hey, hey, hey, hey, HEY!''' '''''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (Anime)|WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK KYLE HEBERT IS?!]]'''''
 
'''He is the champion of Justice, The defender of what is right!!''' '''''[[Dragon Ball (Manga)|THE GREAT SAIYAMAN!!!]]'''''
 
Kyle Hebert (make a note of the last name, it's French and tends to get spelled and pronounced wrong fairly often) is a voice actor who originally did work for [[FUNimation]], which is in Texas. His most notable roles are Teen Gohan and the 2nd Narrator in ''[[Dragon Ball (Manga)|Dragon Ball]] Z''. Soon afterward he started working in California dubs. He's recognizable by his gruff and suave tone present in many of the characters he voices.
 
As stated above, he is the dub voice of Kamina in ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (Anime)|Gurren Lagann]]''. Naturally, due to Kamina's [[Memetic Badass]] status, this just made him much more popular. He's present at many anime conventions and does a lot of Q&A sessions with his former FUNimation compatriots.

He's also an Internet star thanks to not only his role as [[Magnificent Bastard]] [[Bleach (Manga)|Sosuke Aizen]], but also due to his role as Wario in fellow voice actor Matthew Mercer's web series ''[[There Will Be Brawl]]''. He also hosts [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20090727161719/http://thebigbaldbroadcast.com/ his own podcast] (yes, named after Hebert's [[Bald of Awesome]]), along with Indie-Rock musician Otherworld Steve. The podcast is not only supported by ''another'' podcast (hosted by Canadian voice actor Trevor Devall), but also supports yet ''another'' podcast, hosted by [[Naruto the Abridged Series|MasakoX]] and other [[The Abridged Series]] creators.

* [[Bald of Awesome]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in his appropriately named podcast, "Big Bald Broadcast."

* [[Kamehame Hadoken]]: Noted on the [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] page, he's the only one so far who have voiced ''two'' characters who use this move (Adult Gohan for the Kamehameha and Ryu for the Hadoken).
Line 60 ⟶ 61:
* [[One of Us]]: video games, anime, manga, comic books, you name it.
** He doesn't get invited to cons as often as some other voice actors. Never stopped him showing up anyway as a fan (and "crashing" panels).
* [[Playing Against Type]]: The calm and collected [[Bleach|Aizen]] isn't one of his usual roles.
* [[Unions in Hollywood]]: [[Discussed Trope|Discussed]] in his [http://www.kylehebert.com/?page_id=241 FAQ]
** Do note however, that his name appears in non-union (mainly Funimation and anime) ''and'' union (LA based work) projects.
