This pose looks familiar...

Describe Takahiro Sakurai here, Troper-han!

Not interested... Guess I have to, though. Where do we start?

Think of him as a slightly older version of Mamoru Miyano: handsome guy (just check out his shots taken at the 62nd Venice International Film Festival) who also receives handsome guy roles by the truckload. Said handsome guy can be angsty (Cloud), mean (Kanda) or smooth-talking (Kagami). Most of all, a guy dedicated for his angsty Anti-Hero roles. He has made one notable exception of playing Suzaku, a guy who usually plays the hero, but this is later subverted. Big time.

In Relationship Voice Actor terms, Sakurai is often partnered with Kenichi Suzumura; the two are good friends in real life, formed a singing duo named R16, and host a radio show together. Both men also work with actress/singer Maaya Sakamoto somewhat often. Thanks in large part to Code Geass, he's starting to form a few connections with Jun Fukuyama. Chris Patton is something of an English equivalent of his--they share a few of the same roles (Fakir in Princess Tutu and Sasame in Prétear) and both are known for the Bishounen they play. Some of his roles has also crossed paths with Yuri Lowenthal (Yuuri Shibuya from Kyo Kara Maoh, Suzaku Kururugi from Code Geass, and Haseo from .hack series). Junichi Sato seems to really enjoy Sakurai's work--he appears in several of the shows Sato has directed, normally as the (take a guess) Troubled but Cute Bishonen.

Takahiro Sakurai also does a lot of roles with vampires, in fact he may even be a vampire fan himself...

He's probably not related to Harumi Sakurai or Masahiro Sakurai.
