Kenichi Ogata (緒方 賢一 Ogata Ken'ichi, born March 29, 1942) is a Japanese voice actor from Fukuoka Prefecture. He used to work at Aoni Production and now is working at Umikaze.

After graduating junior high school, Ogata studied cooking, and then went to high school, where he aimed to be a comedy performer and worked for some theatrical companies. His voice acting debut was in Mazinger Z, and has been voice acting since.

He is known for his unique soft voice, but also for his astringent and villain roles. Voice actress Megumi Hayashibara has pronounced him as the "Father of the seiyū world". Some of his more notable roles include Genma Saotome in Ranma ½, Professor Hiroshi Agasa in Detective Conan, Myōga in InuYasha and King Dedede in Kirby: Right Back At Ya!.
