My Hero Academia voice actor Justin Briner reads Sykkuno cheating apology in character

The controversy surrounding Sykkuno’s cheating has reached anime fans, as My Hero Academia voice actor Justin Briner created a popular impression of Sykkuno’s apology, performing it as one of his characters.

This news arrived shortly after Sykkuno and his girlfriend released a statement about claims made against him. In it, the Twitch streamer confessed to being unfaithful but also denied some of the accusations, saying they were untrue and exaggerated.

Briner posted a video to X, jokingly imitating a streamer, and it quickly became popular. He later explained that the impression was based on the streamer’s unusual voice.

He continued the playful banter in subsequent posts, jokingly stating his disapproval of the situation and offering another insincere apology, this time referencing the cancellation of his “northernlion super cruise.”

The second post kept the joke going, as people reacted to the surprising sight of a famous anime character appearing to deliver an apology for a cheating scandal.

I apologize. I wouldn’t have resorted to this if the Northernlion Super Cruise hadn’t been canceled.

The surprising casting quickly gained attention because Briner is a very well-known voice actor in the anime world. While he’s also voiced characters in shows like Solo Leveling and Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun, it was the comparison to his role as Deku that really took off online, with clips and images being widely shared.

Briner noticed this trend after many fans started creating their own impressions of Sykkuno. The apology video itself has been widely parodied, with people imitating it using voices from characters like Deku, Light Yagami from Death Note, and other popular anime protagonists.
