Notes[]
- In addition to being "hot-headed" in his voice roles, Seki is a Gunpla (Gundam plastic models) fanatic early on since childhood that he's often cast in mecha anime shows, including Gundam.
- However Seki can be very versatile, refusing to be pigeonholed by performing very different roles, even as a villain.
- Apart from voice acting, Seki is also a chairman of a stage troupe company, thus also spending time at theatre.
- Very often, the characters he voiced have very comical sides to their seriousness, such as Toji Suzuhara in Neon Genesis Evangelion, Sagara Sousuke in the Full Metal Panic series, and Kenichi Shirahama in Shijou Saikyou no Deshi Kenichi.
