Line 229:
* All dubs of [[Kaeloo]], like the original French version, had the title character voiced by a man.
* The original Japanese dub of ''[[Peter Pan (Disney film)|Peter Pan]]'' had the title character voiced by a woman (Masumi Goto), but is now voiced by a male (Mitsuo Iwata).
* The French-Canadian dub of ''[[Tom and Jerry: The Movie]]'' had the burly, brutish cat appearing in the [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]] portrayed by a woman, since he ironically spoke in a high-pitched voice.
* The Japanese dub of ''[[Invader Zim]]'' has Zim, Dib and GIR voiced by women (respectively, Nao Nagasawa, Ayumi Kida and Wasabi Mizuta).
 
Line 385:
* [[Akira Ishida]] himself is a popular inversion. His distinctive ''effeminate'' voice means he regularly gets parts normally played by women.
** This has come to the point where he voiced an ''actual woman''. Now ''that'' is something that you don't hear every day.
** It's probably worth noting that Greg Ayres (the actor of Negi from ''Negima'' mentioned above) has been cast three times in dubs for young characters voiced by Akira Ishida in the original: Kaworu Nagisa of ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'', Chrono of ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'' and Satoshi Hiwatari of ''[[D.N.Angel]]''. In fact, Greg himself tends to be a walking aversion -- heaversion—he was originally hired as a voice actor in the first place ''because'' his natural voice sounds so young.
* Sixteen-year-old Tsukiyono Omi of ''[[Weiss Kreuz]]'' is played by Yuuki Hiro, actually the oldest of the four lead voice actors of the series; his youthful voice means that he is often cast as cute young boys.
** If you can't get a woman to play a boy, you can get Yuuki Hiro.
