Funimation/Trivia: Difference between revisions

Line 9:

** One of the major reasons why some LA and New York based voice actors are willing to work with Funimation, being that it's located a right-to-work state, thus cheaper prices and generally a more open environment compared to Los Angeles and New York (one of the advantages is that you can actually directly call up the company doing the casting auditions and have your name put on a list. Then, on audition day you go there and take your shot in person). Heck, they even got [[Scott McNeil|a Canadian guy]] to work on a small role in ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (anime)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' and in ''[[Samurai 7]]'', and recently ''[[One Piece Film: Strong World]]''.

** For older licenses that get picked up and later have new sequels, Funimation is typically really good about bringing back the original voice actors to reprise their roles despite living outside of Texas. ''[[Bayonetta]]: Bloody Fate'', ''[[BlazBlue]]: Alter Memory'', ''[[Code Geass]]: Akito the Exiled'', ''[[Eureka Seven AO]]'', ''[[Neptunia]]'', ''[[Rebuild of Evangelion]]'' and ''[[Trigun]]: Badlands Rumbles'' all saw most, if not all, the cast reprising their roles.

* [[Money, Dear Boy]]: The reason why their best actors only appear to stick around at Funimation for a handful of years. The most popular actors in the dub of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' are all now in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, dubbing anime pays very little compared to other acting jobs, and most like to reach for union jobs instead of Funimation's non-union ones.
