Kawaki in Boruto is voiced by Yūma Uchida in the original Japanese version. In the English dub, the character is voiced by Michael Schwalbe; public dub databases also note Christopher Niosi on earlier TV-series casting for the role. TV Tokyo’s official Boruto cast page lists Uchida as Kawaki, and franchise voice-role databases identify Schwalbe as the English actor who has voiced Kawaki most often across the franchise.
Japanese Voice Actor: Yūma Uchida
Date of Birth
September 21, 1992. Uchida’s official Intention profile lists his birthday as September 21 and his birthplace as Tokyo; public profile summaries give the full date as September 21, 1992.
About Yūma
Yūma Uchida is a Japanese voice actor and singer represented by Intention. His official agency profile lists Kawaki among his anime credits and also identifies major roles such as Megumi Fushiguro in Jujutsu Kaisen, Kyo Sohma in Fruits Basket, Ash Lynx in Banana Fish, Haruka Sakura in Wind Breaker, Reo Mikage in Blue Lock, and Hayate Immelmann in Macross Delta.
For Boruto fans, Kawaki is one of Uchida’s most search-relevant roles. TV Tokyo’s official cast page lists him directly as Kawaki, and his Intention profile includes BORUTO-ボルト- NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS among his headline anime credits. That strongly suggests the role is central to his public voice-acting identity.

Full Current Filmography
The list below reflects documented public credits visible from Yūma Uchida’s official Intention profile and major public profile sources as of March 20, 2026. Because no single retrieved official page exposed a complete chronological master list for every anime, film, game, dubbing, music, and radio credit, this should be treated as a source-based documented filmography rather than a guaranteed exhaustive master list.

The same profile also lists radio work and his ongoing music career, including multiple singles, albums, and a Budokan live performance in 2024.
Critical Reception
The strongest formal evidence of Uchida’s standing is his award history. Search-result text from his official YouTube channel states that he won Lead Actor at the 13th Seiyu Awards, and public summaries also note that he won Best Rookie Actor at the 11th Seiyu Awards. Those honors establish him as one of the more decorated voice actors of his generation.
For Kawaki specifically, the strongest evidence is franchise continuity and official billing. TV Tokyo’s official cast page lists Uchida as Kawaki, and his official profile prominently includes the role among his representative anime credits. That strongly supports the conclusion that his performance is treated as the definitive Japanese interpretation of Kawaki. That is an inference from the official casting record rather than a direct quoted review.

English Voice Actor: Michael Schwalbe
Date of Birth
I did not verify a public primary source in the retrieved results that clearly states Michael Schwalbe’s full birth date, so I’m leaving it unstated rather than guessing. IMDb’s public biography does identify him as a director, writer, voice actor, and singer living in Las Vegas, Nevada.
About Michael
Michael Schwalbe is an American voice actor, director, writer, and singer. IMDb’s public biography describes him as a “vocal chameleon,” says he lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, and notes that he has worked across 100+ video games and cartoons in addition to commercial and corporate voice work. Behind The Voice Actors identifies Kawaki as the role he is best known for.
For Boruto, Schwalbe is the English dub actor now most closely associated with Kawaki. Behind The Voice Actors’ franchise page says Kawaki has been “voiced most times by Michael Schwalbe” in English, and its news archive notes that Schwalbe took over the role in Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker and Boruto: Naruto Next Generations in 2022.
Hometown
The clearest location I verified is Las Vegas, Nevada, which IMDb’s public biography identifies as where Schwalbe lives. I did not retrieve a primary-source profile stating a birthplace or hometown more specifically, so I’m not going beyond that.
Career Highlights
For this query, Schwalbe’s key credit is Kawaki in Boruto. Behind The Voice Actors lists him as one of Kawaki’s English TV voices in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, and the broader character page says he has voiced Kawaki most often in the franchise’s English-language releases.
Outside Boruto, Behind The Voice Actors highlights Jolyne’s Defense Attorney in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean and Doubledealer in Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy among his best-known roles. The same profile also lists credits such as Balrog in Devil May Cry 5, Lupo Tokk in Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Raiden Tameemon in Record of Ragnarok, and Kogen in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.
Full Current Filmography
The list below reflects documented public credits visible from Behind The Voice Actors and IMDb as of March 20, 2026. Because I did not retrieve a single official chronological master list from Schwalbe himself, this should be treated as a source-based documented filmography rather than a guaranteed exhaustive master list.
Anime and Anime-Adjacent Television
2018–present — Boruto: Naruto Next Generations — Kawaki. Behind The Voice Actors lists Schwalbe among Kawaki’s English TV voices. The same page also shows Christopher Niosi on earlier TV-series casting, so the role changed hands rather than being Schwalbe’s alone from the start.
2021 — Record of Ragnarok — Raiden Tameemon. Listed on Behind The Voice Actors’ Michael Schwalbe profile.
2021 — JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean — Jolyne’s Defense Attorney. Listed on Behind The Voice Actors.
2022 — Lupin the 3rd: Part VI — Crosbie. Listed on Behind The Voice Actors.
2023 — Ōoku: The Inner Chambers — Footman, Tokugawa Iemitsu (male). Listed on Behind The Voice Actors.

2018 — Paladins: Champions of the Realm — Bounty Hunter Lex. Listed on Behind The Voice Actors.
2019 — Devil May Cry 5 — Balrog. Listed on Behind The Voice Actors.

2023 — Pokémon: Path to the Peak — Commentator. Listed on Behind The Voice Actors.
Other Professional Work
IMDb’s public biography says Schwalbe is also a director, writer, and singer, not only a voice actor. It also says he performed extensively during and after college and built a career across games, cartoons, commercials, and corporate campaigns.
Critical Reception
The strongest public evidence for Michael Schwalbe’s standing as Kawaki is franchise continuity after recasting. Behind The Voice Actors’ character page says Kawaki has been voiced most times by Schwalbe in English, and its news archive explicitly notes that he took over the role in 2022 for both the anime and Shinobi Striker. That strongly supports the view that Schwalbe is now the definitive English voice of Kawaki for most dub viewers. That is an inference from the casting record rather than a direct quoted review.
More broadly, Behind The Voice Actors highlights Kawaki, Jolyne’s Defense Attorney, and Doubledealer as the roles Schwalbe is best known for, which is a useful indicator of fan-facing recognition even though it is not formal newspaper-style criticism.
Social Media
I found public references to a Bluesky, YouTube, and other accounts through Schwalbe’s Linktree, but the retrieved results did not expose clean direct profile URLs from a primary source in the exact handle-plus-direct-link format required here. I’m omitting the section rather than risking an inaccurate listing.
