Ken Ryuguji, or Draken as he’s better known in popular manga/anime series Tokyo Revengers will no longer be voiced by Tatsuhisa Suzuki. Earlier today, the Tokyo Revengers Twitter account made the announcement, together with a screenshot of the same announcement over on the series’ official website.
【龍宮寺 堅役に関してのお知らせ】
龍宮寺 堅役を演じてこられた鈴木達央さんですが、
事務所、委員会双方協議の上、役を交代となりますことをお知らせいたします。聖夜決戦編の制作をキャスト・スタッフ一丸となって進めて参ります。https://t.co/b9qrXU2B3T pic.twitter.com/s21CLasp1Y

In English, the tweet reads, “We would like to announce that Tatsuhisa Suzuki, who has been playing the role of Ken Ryuguji, will be replaced after discussions between his agency and the production committee. The cast and staff of ‘Tokyo Revengers’ will continue to work together on the production of the ‘Christmas Showdown’ arc.”
Currently, there is no word of a new voice actor for Draken in Tokyo Revengers, following the dismissal of Suzuki. The voice actor has lost several voice acting roles after allegedly cheating on his wife, LiSA. Amongst them include Anos Voldigoad from The Misfit of Demon King Academy and Regal from Alchemy Stars. He has since been replaced by Yuichiro Umehara for the former, and Shintaro Asanuma for the latter.
Voice actors losing their roles after cheating allegations isn’t uncommon for the Japanese voice acting industry. Earlier this month, Runa Narumi also didn’t voice Yuika Mitsumine in the latest event for The Idolmaster: Shiny Colors after allegations of cheating on her boyfriend, a popular YouTuber known as Mokou.
