Chris Niosi, known online as Kirbopher, is best known for pioneering early internet flash animation and comedy. While studying flash animation at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, he created and voiced several viral series that defined early YouTube culture, including "Go, Go, Parody Rangers," "Nin10doh!," and "Brawl Taunts"—the latter a collaboration with voice actress Kira Buckland that fans still cite as a classic.
Beyond his own projects, Chris became a prolific voice actor in abridged series and fan animations, lending his talents to "Yu-Gi-Oh! the Abridged Series," "Dragon Ball Z Abridged," and "Bastardized." His work helped establish the abridged series format as a legitimate creative outlet on the internet.
He eventually transitioned to professional voice acting, making his debut as Khoury in Pokémon.
