10 Griamore Was The Son Of Dreyfus & A Respected Holy Knight (Seven Deadly Sins)
Griamore was a member of the knights of Liones and the son of Grandmaster Dreyfus. His "Barrier" ability allowed him to protect comrades and vital political figures though limited his potential as an individual warrior.
Perhaps his finest moment was when he stood up to Fraudrin of the Ten Commandments and pleaded with him to end his barbarism. Since the demon shared his father's memories, he relented - only to be killed in hesitation by Meliodas with a single decisive punch.
9 Sloth Was A Homunculus Determined To Serve Father (Fullmetal Alchemist)
Sloth was a burly homunculus who was strong enough to overpower Alex Armstrong and fast enough to move in a blur (albeit without precision). He was responsible for digging a tunnel around Amestris in order to create the world's largest transmutation circle.
Ironically, Sloth only died because he overexerted himself against Armstrong and his reinforcements. With his final gasps, he embraced the void and was jubilant that at long last, he could finally seize the sleep he had been working so tirelessly to earn.
8 Keith Shadis Was A Ruthless Drill Instructor & Close Friend Of Grisha Yeager (Attack On Titan)
Patrick Seitz had an opportunity to practice the full range of his emotions with Keith Shadis. The man was a relentless drill instructor whose sole responsibility was to put new recruits under significant psychological strain and mold them into warriors worthy of Paradis' service.
However, Keith had a softer and less-explored side that nuanced him as a character. He sabotaged Eren's ODM gear deliberately in hopes of disqualifying him from the boot camp as a final favor to his longtime friend, Grisha Yeager. After seeing how determined his son was to fight, however, he knew he had to give him the chance he deserved.
7 Teuchi Was A Loveable Ramen Chef & One Of Naruto's Closest Friends (Naruto)
Teuchi was the owner of Ichiraku Ramen, Naruto's favorite restaurant since childhood. He was one of the few villagers to take pity on the troubled youth and gave him free food when he could afford to. This in turn secured Naruto's friendship, which would be useful when the establishment came under attack.
Although Teuchi has had several different English voice actors, Patrick Seitz has performed as him the most in a total of nine titles.
6 Isshin Kurosaki Was Ichigo's Father (Bleach)
Isshin Kurosaki was Ichigo's father and a man who was a Soul Reaper well before his son was. On the eve of Aizen's attack against Karakura Town, he helped him train hard and convert his spiritual energy into physical power.
Without the valuable lessons he taught, Ichigo never would have been able to defeat the rogue Gotei captain and save his friends. Fortunately, his father was much more intelligent and competent than many fans had come to believe in earlier arcs of the story.
5 Uvogin Was A Physical Powerhouse In Service To The Phantom Troupe (Hunter X Hunter)
Uvogin was arguably the Phantom Troupe's strongest member just behind Chrollo. He was powerful enough to defeat the Shadow Beasts by himself and cause massive rockslides or craters with a single pounding of his fist.
He was equally loyal to his friends, as proven when he refused to sell them out to Kurapika as Nen chains wrapped around his heart. When Uvogin was executed by his vengeful opponent, he died with far more dignity than one might expect for a thief and mass murderer.
4 Ira Gamagori Was The Disciplinary Chairman For Honnoji Academy (Kill La Kill)
Ira Gamagori was the disciplinary chairman of Honnoji Academy and a member of the Elite Four. He was fiercely loyal to Lady Satsuki, having displayed a willingness to lay down his life for her time and again.

3 Franky Was The Straw Hat Pirate's Shipwright (One Piece)
Franky was a shipwright for the Straw Hat pirates and one of its strongest members. He was introduced in Water Seven as a brutish thug who stole three hundred million berries from Luffy although was quickly turned to the captain's side after Lucci's CP9 agents put their plans into motion.
After the incident at Enies Lobby was concluded, Franky was inclined to join the Straw Hats on their adventures since he was now a wanted fugitive. In addition to avoiding the authorities, he set sail alongside his new friends with another goal in mind - to ensure that the Thousand Sunny made it across the Grand Line.
2 Endeavor Is The Current Number One Hero Of Japanese Society (My Hero Academia)
Endeavor is the father of Todoroki and the number one hero of Japanese society ever since the retirement of All Might. Although he was useful in fending off Shigaraki's first nomu attack, his most recognized feat of strength was against High-End.
By fighting the monster with everything he had and defeating it, Endeavor sent a clear message to heroes, villains, and civilians alike - times may be changing, but society would remain safe so long as he was alive. At that moment, the flaming hero's redemption officially began.
1 DIO Was The Joestar Family's Worst Nightmare (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)
Patrick Seitz's most iconic role was JoJo's DIO. The villain was an immortal vampire who had stolen Jonathan Joestar's body after his own was destroyed and used it to command vast armies of Stand users across the planet.
