Line 49:
** So, [[Bleach (Manga)|Zangetsu]]'s [[Monster (Anime)|a detective now]]?
** If you go back a bit you'll also realize he was Khyron's aide and Lunk in ''[[Robotech (Anime)|Robotech]]''. Guy's been in the business quite awhile.
** Holy shit, [[Ghost in The Shell|Batou]] went rogue, turned into a [[White -Haired Pretty Boy]], and formed [[Kingdom Hearts|an evil Section 9!]]
** He recently became the VA for [[Mortal Kombat|Raiden.]] He also voiced [[The Joker]] in the Mortal Kombat vs. DC crossover.
 
Line 134:
** [[Eureka Seven (Anime)|Holland]] would not be bloodily tearing apart mooks with demonic wolf-headed-tentacles.
** Or [[Ghost in The Shell|chasing cyber-criminals in futuristic Japan]].
** or [[Blood Plus+ (Anime)|eviscerating vampires]].
** He [[Castlevania|does it again too]].
*** [[Hellsing|Several times.]]
** The main difference between them is the tone they take, which varies from angry (Holland), to flat ([[Suzumiya Haruhi|Kyon]]), to [[Extreme Doormat]] ([[Blood Plus+ (Anime)|Haji]], [[Naruto (Manga)|Itachi]]).
** Not to mention pure sleaze with [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Touga Kiryuu,]] [[X 1999 (Manga)|Fuuma Monou,]] and [[Hellsing|Alucard]]. Really, it's more scary when imagining Kyon breaking out the Girlycard form.
** On the other hand, he's also [[Irresponsible Captain Tylor]], and [[Blood Plus+ (Anime)|Van Argiano]].
** He also voices Albedo (uncredited, ''[[Xenosaga (Video Game)|Xenosaga]]''), Albel Nox (Star Ocean 3), and Itachi Uchiha (''[[Naruto (Manga)|Naruto]]''). Those three roles alone scare me far more than any of his other roles combined.
** [[Xenosaga (Video Game)|Albedo]] isn't the only creepy albino he voices. There is also the dimension-hopping certifiable [[Badass]] Karasu, from the anime [[Noein]]- he lends his voice to the titular character, as well. {{spoiler|Understandable, considering they're... pretty much the same person.}}
Line 167:
** The first time I heard Crispin was in ''[[Xenosaga (Video Game)|Xenosaga]]''. I wasn't familiar with him at the time, and it was a surprise to me that he was both Nigredo and Albedo. They didn't sound the same to me until I learned they were both Crispin. After watching a few of his anime though, the only time I've ''not'' been able to recognize Crispin's voice was when he played Tabool in ''[[Now and Then Here And There]]''. This was a considerably older anime and he was relatively new to the scene back then, so perhaps his voice changed a little. He was also playing a child in that series which is rare, but it's hard to believe that it was his voice.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v17gWskmvYA He is utterly and completely incapable of playing a] [[Fake Brit]] (around the 5 minute mark).
*** [[So Bad ItsIt's Good|And it's hilarious]].
*** That is [[Are You Pondering What I'm Pondering?|almost verbatim]] what I said to my friend upon seeing it for the first time.
** I actually died playing [[Too Human]] when I realized that [[Chobits (Manga)|Hideki]] was [[Too Human|Baldur]].
** And if you think all that is awesome, remember [[The Slayers|Zelgadiss]] has to ''sing'' in the second season. That's right, [[Hellsing|Alucard]]/[[Chobits (Manga)|Hideki]]/[[Naruto (Manga)|Itachi]]/[[Suzumiya Haruhi|Kyon]] ''sings''.
Line 260:
** Germain used the same voice for [[Jimmy Two Shoes|Heloise]] as she did for [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]].
** '''[[Pucca|TABITHAAAAA...LOVES GARUUUUU...]]'''
** She does several voices (including main character Rarity) in ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]''.
 
* '''Grant George'''
Line 293:
** When [[Mapi-chan|I watched]] episode 18 of ''[[Shuffle]]'', I was freaked out when I realized that [[Tomokazu Sugita]] voiced both Kyon and Rin. Cut to a [[Nightmare Fuel]] [[Imagine Spot]], where I imagined that [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Mikuru]] slashed Kyon's eye with a boxcutter.
** Same thing in ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate the Combat Butler]]'': When the Maou Queen showed up, she immediately called [[Yuko Goto|Yuko Goto's]] voice on it. The [[Once an Episode]] commercial break [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] things even further by giving the Maou Queen that [[Suzumiya Haruhi|waitress costume, with the fingers over the eye, and the line "Sumeshi Beam!" (Vinegar'd Rice Beam!)]]
** Combines with [[NamesName's the Same]] for extra fun, if you want to dig into some of her lesser-known works. Both ''Mizuiro'' and ''[[Lamune]]'' feature a male protagonist named Kenji. In both, [[Yuko Goto]] plays the childhood friend of said male protagonist. In both, she can be heard saying "Ken-chan" frequently... ''with the exact same tone''.
 
* '''Gilbert Gottfried'''
Line 308:
* '''[[Dan Green]]'''
** While watching the dubbed version of ''[[Yami no Matsuei]]'' it is almost impossible to take Tsuzuki's attempts at angst seriously when every time he opens his mouth Yami from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh]]'' pops out.
** Not to mention his singing as [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Troubadour]].
** Though as [[Gao Gai Gar|Taiga]] you half-expect him to say something about believing in the heart of the cards.
** He played two souls in one body again in [[Samurai Deeper Kyo]]
Line 320:
** He was sad when Treecko evolved because he couldn't voice it anymore.
** I can't imagine [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers (Video Game)|Grovyle]] [[Yu-Gi-Oh|playing Duel Monsters]].
** [[Now and Then Here And There|Nabuca]] [[Yu-Gi-Oh!: theThe Abridged Series (Web Video)|can do whatever he wants because he's voiced by]] '''[[Dan Green]]'''!!!
** He's also done work on the dubs of a couple of hentai animes. Under a different name, of course. Yes, really.
 
Line 334:
 
* '''[[Todd Haberkorn]]'''
** The same guy who plays [[Xxx Holic (Manga)|Watanuki]] also plays the [[Tall, Dark and Snarky]] [[Ghost Hunt (Manga)|Naru]]? Opposite [[J Michael Tatum|Doumeki]]? :D
** And he's also the brother of [[Initial D|Ryosuke]] who is ALSO played by Tatum. Mind = blown.
** [[D Gray Man|Allen Walker]] = [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Manga)|Ling Yao]] = [[Ouran High School Host Club|Hikaru]] = [[Soul Eater (Manga)|Death the Kid]] = [[Baccano (Light Novel)|Firo Prochainezo]]? Now that's a lot to digest!
Line 341:
 
* '''Olivia Hack'''
** The voice of [[Hey Arnold (Animation)|Rhonda]] is also [[Blood Plus+ (Anime)|Mao]]. And they are almost the same personality wise.
 
* '''Gene Hackman'''
Line 375:
** Mark Hamill voices both Harabec and Caanon Weathers in ''Starsiege''. He's nigh-unrecognizable as the gruff Caanon, but his performance as Harabec has plenty of "Tosche station to pick up some ''power'' converters" whine.
** Also Emperor Griffon from ''Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicle'' (not Sirus, for that is Phil and Lil).
** Mark Hamill has made a huge career out of voice acting (mainly villains, we all knew Luke was really evil anyway, right?), but if you've been exposed to one of his best known roles, [[The Joker]] on ''[[Batman: theThe Animated Series (Animation)|Batman the Animated Series]]'', a few of his other roles might not be quite as obvious.
** Hamill's voice career predates ''[[Star Wars]]''. He was Corey Anders on ''Jeannie'' and did incidental voice work for other [[The Dark Age of Animation|70's Saturday morning shows]]. He was also the voice of Seth in ''[[Wizards]]''.
** Hamill, along with Tom Wilson and Malcolm McDowell, also provided the voice for the earlier version of the character he played in ''[[Wing Commander (Video Game)|Wing Commander]] III'' and ''[[Wing Commander (Video Game)|Wing Commander]] IV'', in the [[USA Network]] cartoon series ''[[Wing Commander Academy (Animation)|Wing Commander Academy]]''. He was also the voice of "Merlin" (Blair's fighter computer) in ''[[Wing Commander (Film)|Wing Commander]]'' [[The Movie]].
*** "Isn't that the guy from Star Wars?"
** Hamill and McDowell reunite in ''[[Metalocalypse]]'' as the [[Big Bad]] and his cohort respectively. Though considering the main characters destroy the world on a weekly basis, this is subject to interpretation.
** Despite having a very distinct voice for [[Batman: theThe Animated Series (Animation)|Joker]], Mark Hamill does use similar voices for [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Ozai]] and [[Metalocalypse|Senator Stampingston]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3aC5f23q7E as shown here].
** The Birthday Bandit from ''[[Teamo Supremo]]'' sounds quite like [[The Joker]].
** He also did the Hobgoblin in the 90's Spider-Man cartoon, sounding like a more restrained Joker.
Line 390:
** Is it just me, or does [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|the Firelord]] sound a lot like an [[Danny Phantom|evil, self-regenerating plant ghost]]?
*** My, who knew [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|the Firelord]] is also [[Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep|a very skillful Keyblade Master]]?
** He voices Klaw in ''[[The Avengers: EarthsEarth's Mightiest Heroes (Animation)|Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes]]'' and he teams up with Man-Ape, who is voiced by [[Kevin Michael Richardson|another]] [[The Batman (Animation)|Joker]]
** He Also did the voice of The Red Skull in ''[[The Super Hero Squad Show]]''.
** Asst. Director Aaron Wilson, the [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Soldier of Fortune]] II''.
Line 451:
*** He was also [[Millennium (TV)|Frank Black]].
** [[Transformers Animated|Lockdown]], anyone?
** I was shocked to hear the [[The Avengers: EarthsEarth's Mightiest Heroes (Animation)|Grim Reaper]] with Lockdown's voice.
 
* '''[[Kyle Hebert]]'''
Line 465:
 
* '''Noriko Hidaka'''
** When the ''[[Inu Yasha (Anime)|Inu Yasha]]'' anime was being voice-cast in Japan, Noriko Hidaka, who voiced Kikyo, expressed worry that her scream of "Inuyasha!" would sound the same as when she called out to [[Ranma One Half½ (Manga)|Ranma]] as Akane.
** Which says nothing about the fact that Ranma and Inuyasha are voiced by the same person in Japanese ''and'' English (Okay, so only seasons 4-7 of Ranma for English, but still).
** That person is [[X Men Evolution|Pietro]] and the other (the Japanese one) is [[Death Note (Manga)|L]]
Line 512:
** To an extent, [[Fushigi Yuugi|Miaka]] also applies.
** Or [[Scrapped Princess|Raquel Casull]], and [[Magic Knight Rayearth|Fuu Hououji]], both ever so graceful...[[Magic Misfire|not 100% of the time, in Raquel's case]].
** [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Belldandy]] sounds a lot like [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Ryoko Asakura]]. It's hard hearing Belldandy speak without being slightly... [[Nightmare Fuel|uneased.]] God knows how bad it would be for an [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Ah My Goddess]] fan to watch [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHkM6Ru3xhc this scene].
*** Interestingly, she manages to make subtle distinctions between them. Belldandy's voice is a little lower, and Ryoko's is a little more clipped, as befitting the [[Uncanny Valley Girl]].
