Same for me. I always thought that he provided some nice emotions for Brock and James, especially when Brock went into his girl daze mode. That really did get me to smile inside and out.
The actors are the only thing that makes 4KiRAB shows worth watching. Almost all of 4KiRAB regular VAs are fantastic actors who simply do the best with the scripts/direction they're given.
And they really shine when they get cast in more "grown up" shows like Slayers and Utena.
Yeah....I dunno what's up with all the Eric Stuart hate.
Granted, I haven't seen much of his recent work; but I never noticed any real decline in his acting ability.
Well, my liking of Eric has to do more with how nice he is to his fans, and how good he's been to me. Even when he's busy trying to shop his music (he actually travels back and forth between Brooklyn and Nashville often, hoping to get signed by a big label), he will respond to your messages, even it has to be brief. There is not another VA in the world who is that good with fans (that I know of, anyway).
