Inoue Makio was born November 30, 1940 in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. He is a veteran voice actor (seiyuu) currently affiliated with Aoni Production.
He began voice acting in the '60s, landing small roles in Astroboy, and was the actor of choice for deep-voiced, serious males in the '70s. These days, he rarely takes on new roles (but he does have a cameo in Samurai Champloo, playing Mariya Enshirou in episodes 24-26). He is most noted for his two longstanding roles, as the title character in Captain Harlock from 1978 though the '80s and '90s (Yamadera Kouichi of Cowboy Bebop fame took over this role in 1998), and Ishikawa Goemon XIII of Lupin III from 1977 through today (taking over from Ootsuka Chikao, who played the role in '71 and '72).
