Etsushi Toyokawa is a Japanese actor. He studied at Shimizudani High School, and eventually dropped out of Kwansei Gakuin University to pursue a career in acting.

In 1993 he won the "Newcomer of the Year" award for his drama Kira Kira Hikaru, and the Popularity Award in 1996 for his work in the drama Love Letter. He also won the Japanese Academy Award as best supporting actor three times, the Hochi Film Award for Love Letter, No Way Back and Hanako.
