{{trope}}
* '''[[Mayumi Iizuka]]'''
** [[Fresh Pretty Cure|Miyuki]] = [[Pokémon (anime)|Misty]]. Nuff said.

* '''[[Shozo Iizuka]]'''
** In most series, anime or toku [[Shozo Iizuka]] does villain work using a similar tone and voice. Especially apparent in the ''Space Sheriff Trilogy'', where he voices all 3 of the [[Big Bad]]s, but in ''Gavan'', only for 10 eps before he came down with bronchitis and called in Takeshi Watabe. In Sharivan, voice effects are applied to him whenever Psycho speaks.

* '''[[Asami Imai]]'''
** Will forever be [[The Idolmaster (video game)|Chihaya Kisaragi]], her most popular character. It doesn't help that she has a very distinctive singing voice and did a lot of singing for that part: any time she sings a song, this trope is very likely to come into effect.
*** I suppose she broke away from it. I mean, look at [[BlazBlue|Tsubaki Yayoi]]...
*** [[Steins;Gate|Kurisu Makise]] is now her role that's competing with Chihaya as Imagine's best known.

* '''[[Yuka Imai]]'''
** Yuka Imai, who was also [[Now and Then, Here and There|Nabuca]], [[Digimon Tamers|Renamon]], [[Fruits Basket|Arisa]], [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Wakaba]], [[Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash Star|Kaoru]], [[Tales of Destiny|Rutee Katrea]], [[Mitsumete Knight|Priscilla Dolphan]], and [[Kisetsu o Dakishimete|Mayu]].

* '''[[Tetsu Inada]]'''
** Holy crap, <s>Elzam von Branstein</s> [[Super Robot Wars|Ratsel Feinschmeker]] is [[Turn A Gundam|Harry Ord]]!
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DX_IaXs5YQ UNIVEEEEEEEEEEERSE!]
** There's a reason why we have the term of Inada Furry. Look at [[Bleach|Komamura Sajin]] or [[Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger|Doggie Kruger]]

* '''[[Kazuhiko Inoue]]'''
** It took only 3 seconds for this troper to recognize [[Naruto|Hatake Kakashi's]] voice in ''[[The Sacred Blacksmith]]'', he voices [[The Sacred Blacksmith|Hugo Housman]].

* '''[[Kikuko Inoue]]'''
** [[Guilty Gear|I-No]] being voiced by the same actress as [[Ah! My Goddess|Belldandy]] is... weird.
** So is the fact that she's also the mercenary [[Gun X Sword|Carmen99]].
** As well as Chitose the landlady from [[Chobits]].
** And Claire Majoram of ''[[Mitsumete Knight]]'' too.
** And Durga from ''[[Asura's Wrath]]''. [[Stuffed in The Fridge|And dies in the same episode she first appeared in]].

* '''Jeremy Irons'''** In National Geographic's ''The Last Lions'', [[The Lion King|Uncle Scar]] is telling us a (long, involved and sleepy) bedtime story.<ref>If it's an old familial tale, it goes a long way in explaining why he's such a [[I Did What I Had to Do|kniving]] [[Manipulative Bastard]].</ref>

* '''Michael Ironside'''
** In ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]'' and ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]'', he showed us that DARKSEID IS!
** In the Episode "Legends of the Dark Knight" of the retooled ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]'', he provides the voice of Batman in a sequence based off of [[Frank Miller]]'s ''[[The Dark Knight Returns]]''.
** So Darkseid was the bad guy from ''Scanners'', huh? Well, he seems like the type of guy who could blow your head off just by thinking about it.
** [[Splinter Cell|Sam Fisher]]
*** As pointed out in one interview when someone recognised him. "No, no I'm not Sam Fisher, my name is...well...actually yes I am."

* '''Mariya Ise'''
** Has anyone else noticed how much [[Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt|Stocking]] and [[Yes! Pretty Cure 5|Cure Lemonade]] sound alike?

* '''[[Unshou Ishizuka]]'''
** [[Asura's Wrath|Augus]] is a member of the [[Tekken|Mishima family]], the Narrator of [[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]] as well as Alder, and [[Naruto|Zabuza Momochi]].

* '''[[Miki Ito]]'''
** [[SHUFFLE!|Asa-senpai]] and [[Fate/stay night|Fuji-nee]] sound almost exactly alike. [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Takano]] sounds like both if you tweak her voice a bit.
** Don't forget our beloved onee-sama [[Mariasama ga Miteru|Rosa Chinensis]]
** Hmm doesn't this voice also remind you of [[Dragon Ball|Android18]]

* '''[[Shizuka Ito]]'''
** When [[Mapi-chan|I watched]] the [[Code Geass|Puppet Butler]] battle Hinagiku in ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler]]'', I half-expected Hinagiku to say, [[To Heart 2|"Taka-bou, I like you."]]

* '''Mitsuo Iwata'''
** There are some similarities between [[Evil Twin|Kusanagi]] of ''[[The King of Fighters]]'' and ''[[Street Fighter III]]'''s [[Twofer Token Minority|Sean Matsuda]]. Both are [[Hot-Blooded]] (''literally'' so in Kusanagi's case), both have tan skin, and they even have a similar moveset. To top it off, they're both voiced by the same guy: Mitsuo Iwata.

* '''[[Samuel L. Jackson]]'''
** I always though [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|Officer Tenpenny's]] voice sounded familiar (Okay, I did not check the instruction booklet), until the very last mission when he calls you a "**** ******* ************ "....There it hit me in the face: [[Samuel L. Jackson]]!
** [[The Incredibles|HONEY!? WHERE IS MY SUPERSUIT!?]]
** He was "Gin" Rummy on the ''[[The Boondocks]]'', a white gangsta.
** Between moments of [[badass]]itude, he also got another paycheck signed by [[Quentin Tarantino]], as the narrator of ''[[Inglourious Basterds]]''.
** Seriously? Nobody's going to mention ''[[Afro Samurai]]''?
** He also narrated the Disney-produced documentary ''African Cats''. He is possibly the most intense narrator ever.
** He also narrates the "children's" book, "[[Go the Fuck to Sleep]]."

* '''Roger L. Jackson'''
** The title character in ''[[American McGee's Grimm]]'' considers cats to be ideal pets, since his voice actor, Roger L. Jackson, previously voiced a feline of the Cheshire variety. Grimm also is a complete and total fanboy for the fairytale figure, God[[Scream (film)|Father Death]]...
** And speaking of ''[[American McGee's Grimm]]'', he does ''every single voice in the game''. That guy has an impressive vocal range.
** Not to mention that he's [[The Powerpuff Girls|Mojo Jojo.]]
*** Oh yes, so that's why when [[Baldur's Gate|Keldorn Firecam]] is yelling his righteous yells of justice, it sounded like Mojo Jojo having a [[Heel Face Turn]] and goes on hammy justice.
** And Butch of the ''Rowdyruff Boys''.
** In the ''[[Sam and Max]]'' episodic games, if a character has a deep voice, it's Roger L. Jackson. He's voiced Abe Lincoln, Baby Jimmy Hoffa, ''Satan'', Sexy Peepers...
** What about the movie role that put him on the map: The Killer's phone voice in ''[[Scream (film)|Scream]]''

* '''[[Janyse Jaud]]'''
** I was recently on a message board talking about Lady Frenzy, a character from the French animated series ''Botsmaster'', who has a sexy voice. I posted a link to an episode [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNOd7GHeSkg like so], and another poster remarked "That's Kagura from ''[[Inuyasha]]''!" Indeed, as anyone who has seen the dubs for a number of anime series can attest, Janyse Jaud tends to play bombshells, especially in anime based on [[Rumiko Takahashi]]'s manga. See also [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVaW_JxDbnU Hinako Ninomiya] in ''[[Ranma ½]]'' and [[Bottle Fairy]] Akemi Roppongi in ''[[Maison Ikkoku]]''.
** Jarring... A [[My Little Pony|pony that loves balloons]] is actually evil, only a few inches tall, and [[Strawberry Shortcake|owns a store in Berry Bitty City]]. All, well, more reasons to hate the 2009 reincarnation I suppose.  {{spoiler|For those who still didn't get it, she is Pinkie Pie in the G3 [[My Little Pony]] series and Orange Blossom in the 2009 [[Strawberry Shortcake]] relaunch.}}

* '''[[Tony Jay]]'''
** Happens within the ''[[Legacy of Kain]]'' series, where the late [[Tony Jay]] played at least three different characters (four if you include the demon possessing one of them), using more or less the same voice.
** Of course [[Tony Jay]] has what some would describe as the "perfect" bad guy voice... so you can expect to hear him cast in a generic bad guy role for tons of other videogames and animated shows. Of course, he was ''[[ReBoot]]''{{'}}s Megabyte!
*** [[Tony Jay]] also voiced the character Spiderus in ''[[Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends]]'' and was also in both the television series ''[[Beauty and the Beast (TV series)|Beauty and The Beast]]'' and the Disney film version of ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]''.
**** And as Judge Frollo in Disney's ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]''.
*** [[Tom and Jerry: The Movie|"We've got to have]]...[[Memetic Mutation|MONEY!"]] ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flTi_XzT8o0 Inevitability ensues.])
** Nor should we overlook his contribution as the suavely sinister industrialist-financier incarnation of Shere Khan in ''[[Tale Spin]]''.
** Let's not forget Dr. Lipschitz in ''[[Rugrats]]''. Cue me imagining the child psychologist singing "Hellfire."
** As much as she loved [[Tony Jay]] in all his roles, his most memorable performance to this troper was in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeDBtexTZhk this series of commercials].
*** Taken offline. [[Tony Jay]] often credited with the line, "behold the power of cheese," actually spoken by Roscoe Lee Browne. However, he did narrate a couple Mazda commercials, saying "Mazda Six-Two-Six!" like a villain arming his superweapon.
** Arguably the king of this trope in English-language voice acting.
** [[Tropers/Ziggy Stardust Forever|This troper]] once heard [[Tony Jay]] in a radio commercial for Nabob Coffee. BEST. COFFEE COMMERCIAL. EVER.
** Not forgetting the nefarious ''[[The Tick (animation)|Chairface Chippendale]]''
** ''"I shall write my name across the face of the moon!'' '''GIMME A C!'''"
** The narrator of the modernized incarnation of ''The Bard's Tale''.
** Of the above mentioned examples, two of Tony's characters, namely Chairface Chippendale and the Elder God, were essentially faceless. This made it very, very easy to picture any of his other characters whenever he spoke.
** This troper has trouble taking that guy seriously after hearing him in Secret Squirrel. He was a much sillier character than usual.
** [[Treasure Planet|"On the clearest of nights, when the winds of the Etherium were calm and peaceful..."]] Exactly [[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|Frollo]]'s voice!
** He was also the Lamp Seller, the Arch Druid, and Captain Salidin in ''[[King's Quest VI Heir Today Gone Tomorrow]]''.
** He was Anubis on ''[[Gargoyles]]'', aka '''DEATH'''.

* '''[[Ashley Johnson]]'''
** [[Recess|Gretchen]], [[Teen Titans (animation)|Terra]], [[Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!|Jinmay]] and now [[Ben 10: Alien Force|a teenaged Gwen.]]

* '''Wes Johnson'''
** Speaking of ''[[Fallout]]'', when this troper first heard ''[[Fallout 3]]'''s Mr. Burke in [http://kotaku.com/5043549/five-new-fallout-3-gameplay-videos this gameplay video] (Second from the top), he first thought "Holy crap! [[The Elder Scrolls|Lucien Lachance]] is back and he wants to nuke us all!"

* '''[[James Earl Jones]]'''
** James Earl Jones has an instantly recognizable voice whether he's playing a [[The Lion King|lion]], a [[Star Wars|Galactic Overlord]], or doing the station identification for CNN. Or even an [[Merlin (TV miniseries)|immortal magical rock]].
** For a time, Jones was also the official voice of phone company Verizon (and before the merger, Bell Atlantic), which meant that Darth Vader thanked you for using Verizon every time you made a long-distance call.
** His Spanish counterpart, Constantino Romero, has been dubbing movies for decades and is instantly recognisable as the voice of the aforementioned James Earl Jones (and Vader), [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] and [[Clint Eastwood]], among dozens of other Hollywood stars.
*** Wow, ''that'' would add [[Talking to Himself|surrealness]] to ''[[Conan the Barbarian]]''.
*** In that movie Romero only dubbed Thulsa Doom, but he's dubbed Arnie in the three Terminator films.
** This is referenced in ''[[The Simpsons]]'' in "Round Springfield". Bleedin' Gums Murphy, dies and later gives a speech to Lisa via a cloud (itself a reference to ''[[The Lion King]]''), with the three characters above chiming in at the end.
** Also played with in ''[[Kung Pow]]'' with the Mufasa parody.
** In ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'', he gives his voice to one of the bad guys of the first-season episode "Thor's Hammer"... It gets odd when you can't shake the feeling that Col. O'neill and Teal'c are talking to Darth Vader.

* '''Alessandro Juliani'''
** ''[[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' videos on [[YouTube]] have lately been blasted by reams of ''[[Death Note]]'' fans squealing about the voice of their beloved L.
** He also was [[Bionicle|Toa Vakama]] and [[Beast Machines|Nightscream]]. And as a kid, [[Captain N|Kid Icarus]].

* '''Takeshi Kaga'''
** [[Iron Chef|Chariman Kaga]] is the voice of [[Big Bad|Golbez]] in the [[Updated Rerelease]] of ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]'' for the DS. He also reprises the role for ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]''.

* '''[[Hiroshi Kamiya]]'''
** Ever since this troper found out that the voice actor for [[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei|Itoshiki Nozomu]] and [[Fate/stay night|Shinji Matou]] were the same, he's had many, many mental images of Shinji going, "I'm in despair!" Especially appropriate since Shinji has a lot to despair about.
** He also voices [[One Piece|Trafalgar Law]] and [[Digimon Frontier|Kouji Minamoto]].
** Don't forget [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Tieria Erde]]!
** And [[Durarara!!|Izaya]] and [[Arakawa Under the Bridge|Recruit]] and [[Bakemonogatari|Koyomi]] all sound strangely similar

* '''[[Mika Kanai]]'''
** It can be very creepy when watching ''[[Code Geass]]'' when the voice of Kaguya was [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Satoko "NI-NIIII" Houjou]]. Turns out [[Mika Kanai]] also plays [[Pokémon (anime)|Chikorita and Bayleef]] and [[Sailor Moon|Mimette]] and [[Kingyo Chuihou|Wapiko]]...
** She also played Vanilla in [[Galaxy Angel (anime)|Galaxy Angel]]. Vanilla and Satoko sound very, very similar.
** This Troper just started watching the Three-Tails Arc in ''[[Naruto]] Shippuuden''. I thought at first that Yuukimaru's voice sounded familiar. It was only when he started screaming (in pain from being hooked up to a device {{spoiler|designed to use his chakra to summon the Three-Tailed Beast}}) that he recognized Satoko's voice. 'Cause... come on... ''everyone'' screams in pain/fear in [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]. Is it sad that this troper only recognized Satoko's voice when it was in distress/pain?

* '''[[Tom Kane]]'''
** Plays like every Imperial Officer in ''[[Star Wars]]'' video games, as well as a few characters in ''[[The Force Unleashed]]'' and ''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars]]''.
** Also notable for being [[X-Men|MAG-FREAKING NETO!]].
** Don't forget [[Powerpuff Girls|Professor Utonium]].

* '''[[Boris Karloff]]'''
** The man born to voice horror-movie villains. Ironically, the role that made him famous, the Monster in ''[[Frankenstein]]'', doesn't have that much dialogue.
** Supplied the narration for the seminal animated adaption of ''[[How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (animation)|How the Grinch Stole Christmas]]''.

* '''Casey Kasem'''
** The voice of America's Top (whatever) Countdown, Casey Kasem, also gave voice to:
** Norville 'Shaggy' Rogers in the [[Scooby Doo]] franchise
** Flakey Fakem in an episode of ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]''
** Cliffjumper in the Transformers cartoon
** Robin (Dick Grayson) in all incarnations of ''[[Superfriends]]'' cartoons.
*** This is the character he's voiced the second longest after Shaggy. And it's his own natural voice. When this troper first heard America's Top 40, he wondered, "What's Robin doing on the radio?"
** Meriadoc Brandybuck in the animated ''Return of the King''.
** Mark in ''Battle of the Planets'' aka ''G-Force''.
** Alexander Cabot III in ''[[Josie and the Pussy Cats]]''.
** A handful of characters in one episode of ''The Batman/Superman Hour'' (but not Robin this time).
** An announcer at the ''[[Rugrats in Paris]]'' movie.
** The bumpers for NBC's Saturday morning shows in the 1985-86 season.

* '''David Kaufman'''
** [[Tropers/The Toon Geekette|This troper]] watched ''[[Freakazoid!]]'' for the first time since she was a youngster, and the minute Dexter Douglas first spoke, she thought ''"[[Danny Phantom]]?!"'' Apparently, David Kaufman must like voicing losers who turn into superheroes.
** Don't forget Jimmy Olson from ''[[Superman: The Animated Series|Superman the Animated Series]]''.
** This troper, in addition to hearing Danny in ''[[Freakazoid!]]'', also can't help but hear him instead of [[The Buzz on Maggie|Aldrin]] or Kaufman's narration during several commercials. Perhaps Danny's overshadowed all these people.
** It had a reverse effect on this troper- He heard Danny and thought "[[Back to The Future (cartoon)|Marty?!]]"

* '''[[Tomoko Kawakami]]'''
** You can easily tell that [[Kanon|Sayuri]] and [[AIR|Misuzu]] have the same seiyuu, because Misuzu's "Nihaha[[" sounds exactly like Sayuri's "Ahahaha]]"
** Rounding off [[Key Visual Arts]], [[Tomoko Kawakami]] also voices the Girl in the Illusionary World in ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]''.
** [[Gungrave|Mika!]] "Dr. Tokioka told me...about you. That you're a friend of my mother."
** Wait, why does this destructive little girl sound familiar? (checks seiyuu) ...[[Kanon|Sayuri]] = [[Elfen Lied|Ma]][[Person of Mass Destruction|ri]][[Tyke Bomb|ko]]?!
** No mention of [[Hikaru no Go|Hikaru Shindo]]?
** Or for that matter, [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Utena Tenjou?]]

* '''[[David Kaye]]'''
** ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' Optimus Prime is a really odd one. His best known role before that was ''[[Beast Wars]]'' Megatron. Cue the [[Verbal Tic|"yesss..."]] He's also the voice on the Enzyte commercials, [[Mega Man NT Warrior|Protoman.EXE]], and even has the same general voice tone as [[Ranma ½|Soun Tendo]].
** "Wait, why is Optimus Prime trying to sell me beer?"
*** And if none of those ring a bell, how about [[Inuyasha|Sesshoumaru]] or [[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Treize Khushrenada]] or [[Broken Saints|Lear Dunham]]? David Kaye's voice credits go on and on.
** He was not just Megatron in ''[[Beast Wars]]'' and ''[[Beast Machines]]'', but the Unicron Trilogy as well. In other words, he was Megatron in five different series.
** He was also Clank in ''[[Ratchet and Clank]]'' games.

* '''Michael Keaton'''
** ''[[Batman]]'' voicing the rival car in ''[[Cars]]'' and Ken in ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]] 3''.

* '''Brandon Keener'''
** Go look up any clips of Keener's live-action roles on [[YouTube]] (''[[He's Just Not That Into You]]'', ''[[Raising the Bar]]'', and commercials for Geico and Budweiser, for one) and you'll be hard-pressed to find a comment made within the last 5 months that ''doesn't'' have anything to do with [[Mass Effect|Garrus Vakarian]]. Just try.
** Or for that matter the 'Causeway' mini-campaign in ''Company of Heroes''. Hey, I didn't know Garrus fought in World War Two! And, appropriately enough, in the 'Normandy' campaign!
** He also had a two-minute scene in ''[[The Pacific]]'' as a West Point graduate who missed the war. It was a particularly memorable scene too.

* '''Garrison Keiller'''
** Garrison Keillor of ''[[A Prairie Home Companion]]'' is instantly recognizable whenever he steps into another voiceover role, such as his ads for Honda UK.

* '''[[Tom Kenny]]'''
** From ''[[Transformers Animated]]''. Tom Kenny generally has a very wide range, but it's still somewhat noticeable when he voices Starscream that it's also [[SpongeBob SquarePants]] due to them both being high-pitched and grating. Oddly enough, it ''works''... probably since the original Starscream's voice (Mr. Latta, noted below) was also high-pitched and grating.
** While he sounds a bit like Spongebob he sounds ''a lot'' like the Penguin in ''[[The Batman]]''.
*** Speaking of ''Transformers'' and Kenny, Wheelie in ''[[Transformers (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' definitively sounds like a modified SpongeBob.
** A particularly specific example: In an episode of ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'', SpongeBob, voiced by Tom Kenny, becomes "normalized", and affects a new "normal" voice; one nearly identical to the voice used by Tom Kenny for one-shot character Adlai Atkins on ''[[Futurama]]'', who also has a penchant for normalcy.
** This "50's narrator-ish" voice was also used as many of the automated machines in ''[[Idiocracy]]''.
** In the prom episode of ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'', [[Rocko's Modern Life|Heffer]] says, "Go wreck someone else's prom!"
** Can you believe that the person who voices Spongebob is the same one who voices [[Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!|Hal Gibson]]?
*** Can you believe that the person who voices Spongebob and Patchy the Pirate are THE SAME PERSON?
** On the other hand, the voice he used for Spongebob is ''almost exactly the same'' as the one he used for Carl in ''[[Johnny Bravo]]''.
** What no [[Powerpuff Girls]] mention? Tom Kenny voices the Mayor and the Narrator.
** Why wouldn't he be versatile? [[Plastic Man]] [[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|can expand]]!
** How can [[CatDog|Dog]] be versatile when he's joined to his brother?
** He appears to use an identical voice for SpongeBob's dad and Wally from ''[[Mission Hill]]''. If you've seen the show, you'll know that some of the things Wally's said would be both creepy and hilarious coming from SpongeBob's old man.
** Rabbit in the new [[Winnie the Pooh|Pooh]] movie. This is either going to be really good, or really bad.

* '''Daniel Dae Kim'''
** Jin from ''[[Lost]]'' puts his DHARMA security guard training to good use on the streets of [[Saints Row|Stilwater]] as Saints lieutenant Johnny Gat.

* '''[[Mami Kingetsu]]'''
** It feels really strange to hear [[Yume De Aetara|Nagisa Shiozaki]] and [[Princess Nine|Izumi Himuro]] with the same voice as [[Tokimeki Memorial|Shiori Fujisaki]]. Even more creepy, is that [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World|Alice]] sounds like what the Superstar of Kirameki High would be [[Face Heel Turn|if she turned evil]].

* '''Eri Kitamura'''
** Eri Kitamura's done a lot: she's been [[Toradora!|Ami Kawashima]], [[Kodomo no Jikan|Rin Kokonoe]], [[Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch|Seira]] and [[Fresh Pretty Cure|Cure Berry]].

* '''Eartha Kitt'''
** We would like to take a moment of silence to honor the loss of Eartha Kitt aka [[The Emperor's New Groove|Yzma]], [[Batman (TV series)|Catwoman]] and [[My Life as a Teenage Robot|Vexus.]] RIP.

* '''Hidenobu Kiuchi'''
** [[Darker than Black|Hei]] is [[Monster (manga)|Tenma]].

* '''[[Sanae Kobayashi]]'''
** [[D.Gray-man|Allen Walker]] is ''[[Elfen Lied|Lucy]]?'' [[Nightmare Fuel|I don't think I'll ever sleep again]].
** Lucy is apparently also [[Lyrical Nanoha|the silver-haired avatar of an ancient magical tome that can destroy worlds]].
** And, Allen Walker is Namie Yagiri from Durarara... that's pretty hard to believe... a badass and messiah Exorcist is a brother-obsessed sister.
** Better yet, they apparently are also [[Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch|an androgynous vampire]].
** She was, [[Super Smash Bros.|for at least twice]], [[Ice Climber|2 Eskimo children]].

* '''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'''
** When I first heard [[A Certain Scientific Railgun|Wataru Kurozuma]] open his mouth, I half-expected him to break into a [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Kamina]] speech. Their voices are absolutely '''identical'''.
** Ever heard [[Assassin's Creed|Altair]] speak in Japanese? Hell YES he's voiced by Kamina in the dub!

* '''[[Ami Koshimizu]]'''
** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] nearly fell off her chair when she noticed that [[Ace Pilot]] [[Code Geass|Kallen Kouzuki]] had the same voice as [[Gag Boobs]] [[Moe Moe]] [[Saki (manga)|Nodoka Haramura]]. And then she fainted when she heard her again as [[Abusive Parents|Abusive Parent]] [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Rosa Ushiromiya]].
*** Abusive? [[Memetic Mutation|Badass mother]] is more like it, if the brat gets on your nerves as much as [[Also Sprach Odin|mine]].
*** Like above, this troper almost had an a heart attack when he realized that the same [[Ace Pilot]], [[Code Geass|Kallen]], had also the same voice of the [[Cloudcuckoolander]] [[Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter]] and [[Cute Monster Girl]] with surgical skills [[Franken Fran|Fran Madaraki]].
*** Speaking of pilots we cant forget our speed loving babe [[Strike Witches|Shirley Yeager]] who was based from that [[Danger Deadpan|Legendary Dude]].
*** Almost as stubborn as [[Code Geass|Kallen]], and still a pilot, there's Mintao from [[Sora O Kakeru Shoujo]]

* '''Yuka Komatsu'''
** Can you believe that in the Japanese dub of ''[[Avatar (film)|Avatar]]'', Neytiri sounds just like [[Fresh Pretty Cure|Cure Passion]]? That's because they're both voiced by Yuka Komatsu. If you don't believe me, check [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aW943RepPfM this commercial] (it's at 00:42).

* '''[[Satomi Koorogi]]'''
** [[Pokémon (anime)|Togepi]], meet [[Thundercats 2011|Snarf]]. Or better yet, [[The Magic School Bus|Arnold]]!

* '''[[Takehito Koyasu]]'''
** Odds are that if you've watched even just two different anime series, you'll have heard his voice at least once. This guy ''really'' gets around, especially if you watch [[Humongous Mecha]] series.
** Just from [[Gundam]]:
*** [[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Zechs Merquise]]
*** [[Turn A Gundam|Gym Ghingnham]]
*** [[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Mu La Flaga]]
** [[Overman King Gainer|Asuham Boone]]
** [[Excel Saga (anime)|Il Palazzo]]
** [[NEEDLESS|Adam Blade]]

* '''[[Rie Kugimiya]]'''
** Obviously, there exists [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]], [[The Familiar of Zero|Louise]], [[Hayate the Combat Butler|Nagi]], and [[Toradora!|Taiga]], so just [[Catch Phrase|shut up, shut up, and SHUT UP ALREADY!]]
** Though there are a few boy roles in the mix of [[tsundere]]s, like [[Fullmetal Alchemist|Alphonse Elric]] and [[Digimon Savers|Ikuto Noguchi]].
** And [[Gintama|Kagura]], aru.
** [[Rosario + Vampire|Mizore]] is [[Stalker with a Crush|stalking]] this article right now...
** And [[Saki (manga)|Yuuki]], who's more than fond of tacos.
** Not to mention [[Yes! Pretty Cure 5|Dark Lemonade]].
** Don't forget [[Axis Powers Hetalia|Liechtenstein]]!
** And a [[Fairy Tail|Cat]].
** And a [[Asura's Wrath|Non Violent Priestess]].
** She's [[Ruby Gloom]]!

* '''[[Mila Kunis]]'''
** It's hard to take all of the ugly jokes seriously, when you realise [[Family Guy|Meg]] actually looks like [[Max Payne (series)|Mona Sax]] and [[Book of Eli|Solara]]
** She also plays a lot of the bit parts in ''[[Robot Chicken]]''

* '''[[Natsuko Kuwatani]]'''
** This Troper immediately recognized Yue's voice in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', but couldn't remember from where. Looking it up, it turns out she's also [[Rozen Maiden|Suiseiseki]], although they don't sound too much alike. Listening to Yue's first line again, it's clear: it ends in [[Memetic Mutation|"desu"]].
** Even more obvious in ''[[Haruhi-chan]]''; Achakura using an umbrella to open a door is a reference to ''[[Rozen Maiden]]''.

* '''[[Maurice LaMarche]]'''
** Best known for being [[Pinky and The Brain|The Brain]], 89% of Maurice LaMarche's voice work sounds like he's doing an impression of [[Orson Welles]] (whom he's DIRECTLY impersonated at least four times), so it's very distinctive whenever it's heard.
** This also means that [[Codename: Kids Next Door|Father]] is voiced by the Brain?
** Note that he is almost completely unrecognizable as [[The Tick (animation)|The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight]], but quite recognizable as Morbo and Kif Kroker on ''[[Futurama]]'', among many others.
** He is also the narrator in ''[[Pom Poko]]''
** Also did a really good job of capturing Harold Ramis' quirky mannerisms in the role of Dr. Egon Spengler in ''[[The Real Ghostbusters]]''
** Very recognizable in [[Guild Wars]], but it helps that Vekk is a little guy whose entire species likes to talk about how much smarter than you they are.

* '''[[Phil LaMarr]]'''
** Hermes Conrad on ''[[Futurama]]'', The Green Lantern, John Stewart, on ''[[Justice League]]'' and ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]''; Wilt and Jackie Khones on ''[[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends]]''; Static from ''[[Static Shock]]''; ''[[Samurai Jack]]''; Jazz from ''[[Transformers Animated]]'', and some non-superheroes on ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]''. And don't forget [[Metal Gear Solid|Vamp]]!
** And [[Wolverine and the X-Men|Gambit.]]
** Hilarious [[Lampshading]] in an episode of ''[[Static Shock]]'' where [[Talking to Himself|Static helps out Green Lantern John Stewart]] take on Sinestro. Did Phil LaMarr get paid for voicing two parts?
** Phil LaMarr voices both Vamp (sexy Eastern European bisexual possibly-a-vampire) from the above series, and Hermes Conrad from ''[[Futurama]]''. The worst part is that you can ''hear'' it.
** Phil had also voiced Reddas, a key character in the plot and a [[Guest Star Party Member]] in ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]''.
** A couple roles in the ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'' series as well - the good gangster Gadon Thek in the first, and Captain/Major Riiken in the second. Identical to his John Stewart voice in both cases, which makes playing the games a bit hilarious at times.
** He's also [[Mercenaries|ExOps]] [[Private Military Contractors|mercenary]] Chris Jacobs. [[All There in the Manual|Apparently]] ex-Delta Force.
** He's the [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|Earth King]] as well.
** Phil also played the part of Mr. Sunshine in ''Saint's Row 2''. Its not very obvious though, just like [[Neil Patrick Harris]] as Veteran Child.
** He also provided some voices for ''[[Doom|Doom 3]]'', for instance a minor character by the name of T. Washington that shows up walking out of a restroom in the intro level.
** And in ''[[Dead Island]]'', you can hear him perform the title song as the rapper Sam B.
** His voice can be distinctively heard in [[Mass Effect]] 2 on the Citadel when you listen in on two NPC krogan talking about fish.

* '''Campbell Lane'''
** [[Battlestar Galactica|First Hybrid]] and [[Homeworld|Bentusi]], anyone? Campbell Lane really has ominous voice.
** Considering that the two characters are essentially the same concept, extra points to the BSG writers for being such nerds.
** Lane is also the narrator in the English dubbed version of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Gundam Wing]]''.

* '''[[Lex Lang]]'''
** After watching ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'' (dubbed) I heard Kenshiro and after I had to think for a while, I finally remember where I've heard that before: [[Lupin III|Goemon]].
** Speaking of the FOTNS dub, listen to Shin's voice, even for a little while. This troper was half expecting Shin to [[Naruto|summon Manda]] and sic him on Ken before declaring [[Cowboy Bebop|"Bang!"]]. And who voices him? Only a certain Steven Jay Blum.
** Meanwhile, in [[Dynasty Warriors|ancient China]], he is both an eloquent if monotone [[The Strategist|strategist]] and a [[Hulk Speak|grammar-deficient]] masked hooligan.

* '''Carolyn Lawrence'''
** Hey, doesn't [[The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron|Cindy Vortex]] sound a lot like [[SpongeBob SquarePants|Sandy Cheeks]]?
*** Not only that, but both characters do karate!
** [[Resident Evil|HELP ME, LEON!]]

* '''Denis Leary'''
** It came as a surprise to learn that the smooth-talking sabre from ''[[Ice Age]]'' is the same as the temperamental Francis "Just-because-I'm-a-ladybug-automatically-makes-me-a-girl?" Ladybug from ''[[A Bug's Life|A Bugs Life]]''.

* '''[[Amanda Winn-Lee]]'''
** It might surprise you to learn that the original voice of [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Rei Ayanami]] is also Konoko from ''[[Oni]]'', Yukiko from ''[[Persona 4]]'', Pandy from ''[[Dead Leaves]]'', "Miss Deep" from the ''[[Read or Die]]'' OVA, the original voice of Etna from ''[[Disgaea]]'', Lucia from ''[[Luminous Arc]]'', Argilla from ''[[Digital Devil Saga]]'', and Maria from ''[[Trauma Team]]''. Or, hey. Maybe not.

* '''Christopher Lee'''
** Christopher Lee; Dracula, Saruman, Count Dooku... [[Kingdom Hearts|Ansem the Wise?]] Suprisingly not evil in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'', though chillingly immoral  {{spoiler|1=to the point where there's more than a little fan speculation that DiZ is a Nobody himself...}}.
** One rather weird example of voice recognition will occur if you ever watch the German dub of ''[[The Last Unicorn (animation)|The Last Unicorn]]''. That King Haggard sure sounds familiar...because it's actually Christopher Lee doing the dubbing. And may I add, he's pretty damn good at it.
** Hardly surprising—Lee speaks German, French, Spanish, and Italian fluently, and has some facility with even more languages.
*** Including the dark tongue of [[Lord of the Rings|Mordor]].
** {{small-caps|[[Discworld|Death]]. 'Nuff said.}}
** And in [[Tim Burton]]'s ''[[Alice in Wonderland (film)|Alice in Wonderland]]'', he gives an appropriately sinister voice to  {{spoiler|the Jabberwock!}}

* '''Peggy Lee'''
** Peggy Lee, also a popular singer, played a major part in the making of ''[[Lady and the Tramp]]''. She was given three, er, four roles, too: the Siamese Cats, Mrs. Darling, and Peg.

* '''[[Wendee Lee]]'''
** Wendee Lee sounds the same dubbing both Faye Valentine from ''[[Cowboy Bebop]]'' and Angel from ''[[The Big O]]''. This became evident to this troper in any scenes she had with Roger Smith, voiced, amusingly enough, by Spike Spiegel's voice actor [[Steve Blum]].
** [[Samurai Champloo|This happens]] [[Megas XLR|with those]] [[Rurouni Kenshin|two]] ''[[Relationship Voice Actor|a lot]]''.
*** This troper once played a single mission of ''[[Ace Combat]] 5'' for hours just to hear [[The Big O|Angel and Roger]] or [[Cowboy Bebop|Fay and Spike]] flirt.
** [[Haré+Guu|Weda]] is sad and whining in one scene, and suddenly, Konata's voice comes out!
** One of the few kicks of the ''[[Tsukihime]]'' anime was noting how Normal Schoolgirl / [[Church Militant]] Ciel sounded like Jaded Schoolgirl / {{spoiler|Nascent God-being}} [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Haruhi]].
** As well as a [[Adventures of Mini-Goddess|miniature goddess]] and a [[Ai Yori Aoshi|surprisingly tender-hearted]] [[Bottle Fairy]].
** Oddly enough, saying just Steven Jay Blum and Wendee Lee, is a good way to get somebody to watch ''[[Samurai Girl Real Bout High School]]''
** Apparently [[Soul Series|Xianghua]] sounds like Haruhi... This was scrutinized by a [[That Guy With The Glasses|Channel Awesome]] member toward her tendency to land a role in anything she tries out for!
*** ''Exactly'' like Haruhi, at points. Which leads to much amusement when Xianghua says things like "I choose to believe in myself", because, well, [[Physical God|with Haruhi and all...]]
** It took me a little bit to catch it, but [[Haruhi Suzumiya]] in [[Genki Girl|genki-mode]] sounds like [[Ai Yori Aoshi|Tina Foster]] without the southern accent used for Tina's [[Kansai Regional Accent]]. They also have [[Skinship Grope|grabbiness]] in common, as Mikuru discovers.
** Takeru "T.K." Takaishi, without Steven Blum, but she was also MarineAngemon in Tamers, who's partner was Kenta, voiced by Blum.
** You can hear [[Lucky Star|Konata]] in [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Haruhi]] when Haruhi is mad or snarky. (Reverse, not so much). At one point, Konata cosplays as Haruhi, and even DOES THE VOICE!
** Wendee Lee also voices Xing Cai from ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'' and Rozalin from ''[[Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories]]'', both with her signature Haruhi voice.
** Once you've heard one role by Wendee Lee, it's insanely easy to pick out the rest. Faye Valentine in ''[[Cowboy Bebop]]'', Yui in ''[[Fushigi Yuugi]]'', Tina Foster in [[Ai Yori Aoshi]], Urd in ''[[Ah! My Goddess|Adventures of the Mini-Goddesses]]'', Nel Zelpher in ''[[Star Ocean: Till the End of Time]]'', Aribeth in [[Neverwinter Nights]], ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya|Haruhi]]''...the list goes on and on.
** Wendee voices Selphie from ''[[Rune Factory]]''.
** I recognized her as Loretta Oratorio in ''[[Wild ARMs]]: Twilight Venom''.
** And she's teamed up with [[Outlaw Star|Jim Hawking]].
** [[Retroactive Recognition]]: [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|Scorpina]] sometimes sounded a bit like Haruhi.
** It took me a shamefully long time to pick up on the fact that she is also Lily in the mage origin of [[Dragon Age]].

* '''[[Julie Lemieux]]'''
** She uses a very similar, gravelly for Batty on ''[[Almost Naked Animals]]'' that she did almost 13 years prior for Sleepy Bat on ''[[Birdz]]''.

* '''[[Andrea Libman]]'''
** Listen to a song from the second season of ''The New Adventures of [[Madeline]]'' where the titular character sings (this troper recommends ''A Crown Of Gold'' from ''Madeline and the Lost Crown''). Now listen to [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|G4 Fluttershy]] singing in ''The Cutie Mark Chronicles'' with your eyes closed. If you have a visual image of Madeline being lifted by a flock of butterflies, congratulations! You have realized that Madeline is Fluttershy!
*** In a [[Talking to Himself|TalkingToHerself]] moment, she is also 4G Pinkie Pie, but Pinkie Pie has Shannon Kent-Chan (A fellow Madeline alumni) as her singing voice.
** Also, [[Strawberry Shortcake|Lemon Meringue]] is [[Care Bears|Harmony Bear]] and [[Dragon Tales|Emmy]]!
** And on another note, [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|Fluttershy]] becomes even more Badass, when you consider she provided the voice of [[X-Men: Evolution|X-23]].
** And on another note, there's [[ReBoot]]'s young AndrAIa.

* '''[[Jason Liebrecht]]'''
** [[Baccano!|Luck Gandor]] sounds like [[Darker than Black|Hei]] with a Brooklyn accent.
** Who in turn sounds like an older version of [[Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle|Syaoran]].

* '''David Lodge'''
** He's a [[Bleach|Kenpachi]], a [[Naruto|Jiraiya]], [[Tales of Vesperia|Don Whitehorse]], a [[World of Warcraft|Archimonde]] AND [[Digimon|Puppetmon]]. Oh, and he's [[The Wizard of Oz (animation)|The Scarecrow]].

* '''George Lowe'''
** George Lowe played [[Space Ghost]] on [[The Nineties]] Adaptation ''[[Space Ghost Coast to Coast]]''. His voice lasted the show, appearing on ''[[Aqua Teen Hunger Force]]'' & ''[[The Brak Show]]'' as many other characters.

* '''John Patrick Lowrie'''
** If you've played ''[[Vidoegame/Half-Life 2|Half-Life 2]]'' you know him as the voice of most of the male citizens: "Hey, it's Freeman! Let's follow him!" He's also John Slater in ''[[Left 4 Dead]]'', the Sniper in ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'', and Bruno Lawrie in the ''[[No One Lives Forever]]'' series. He also shows up in several roles in the two ''[[The Suffering|Suffering]]'' games; he's unmistakable as the first CO Torque meets after his escape. More surprisingly, in the first ''Suffering'' he's also the ghostly executioner Hermes and the perpetually stoned Russian prison guard Sergei.

* '''[[Yuri Lowenthal]]'''
** [[Ben 10: Alien Force|Teenage Ben]] or [[Legion of Super-Heroes (TV series)|Superboy]]? [[Naruto|Sasuke Uchiha]], [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Simon]], or [[Code Geass|Suzaku]] speaking English? Yuri Lowenthal's your man.
** Hearing Ben as Sasuke was weird enough. Watching him and thinking of ''Suzaku''? Nearly broke my brain.
*** Finding out he also voiced the British-sounding [[Prince of Persia]] from the recent trilogy shocked this troper as well.
*** He voiced [[Final Fantasy IV|Cecil Harvey]], but this troper was surprised when he saw that he also voiced [[Ace Combat|Solo Wing Pixy, and Strigon 12]]. Add his roles together, combine with [[Johnny Yong Bosch]], and let the [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] good times roll.
*** He also voices a character in ''[[Veggie Tales|The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A Veggie Tales Movie]]''.
** You get to {{spoiler|Bury him alive}} in ''[[Saints Row 2]]''. He plays Shogo Akuji.
** He's one of the few male voice actors capable of playing younger teenage male characters and sounding convincing. As a result he gets these roles a lot.
*** And how as [[Tales of the Abyss|Luke fon Fabre]] and [[Persona 4|Yosuke]].
*** Hey don't forget that when he wasn't ''killing'' Shadows, he ''[[Persona 3|was]]'' one.
** [[.hack GU Games|Haseo]] and [[Soul Nomad|Gig]] sound an awful lot alike.
** Little Guy and Derek Stiles, both from the same [[Trauma Center|game series]], have his voice.
*** Similarly, Charlie MacDonald and Jasper Batt Jr. from ''[[No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle|No More Heroes 2 Desperate Struggle]]''.
** He voiced [[An Ice Person|Iceman]] from ''[[Wolverine and the X-Men]]'' as well.
** And of course, half of these voices become instantly hilarious if put into the context of [[Dynasty Warriors|Sun Ce]], ruler of Wu.

* '''Sherry Lynn'''
** Sherry Lynn, the much less obscure voice of [[Fate/stay night|Sakura]], [[Ah! My Goddess|Skuld]], and [[Ghost in the Shell|the Tachikoma units]].
** She's also the voice of [[Tenchi Muyo!|virtually every incarnation]] [[Pretty Sammy|of Sasami]] as well as [[Xenosaga|MOMO]] (the young, video game version, that is)

* '''[[Seth MacFarlane]]'''
** Causes a lot of this on ''[[Family Guy]]'', where in addition to his long list of major and recurring characters (below), he plays literally hundreds of one line wonders and bit parts.
** Good luck trying not to think of ''[[American Dad]]'' whenever Johann Krauss speaks in ''Hellboy II''.
** Sorry, all this troper hears is Dick Rogers from ''[[Crank Yankers]]'' and [[Robot Chicken|Emperor Palpatine]].
** He does Peter, Stewie, Quagmire, Carter, Tom Tucker, Jake Tucker, Dr. Hartman, Seamus, and Brian on [[Family Guy]] and Stan and Roger the Alien on ''[[American Dad]]''. The guy has a surprising voice range.
** Although the voice of Brian is pretty much MacFarlane's normal voice.
*** [[Sarcasm Mode|Gee]], [[Author Avatar|I wonder why]]...
** Also causes a lot of Hey It's that ''Singing'' Voice, because besides singing as all the above characters, he's heard on the sound track of his own shows and sometimes [[Futurama|others]].


* '''[[Tress MacNeille]]'''
** [[wikipedia:Tress MacNeille|Tress MacNeille]]. If you've watched a cartoon in the past twenty years or so, you've heard her voice—a sampling of her numerous roles over the years includes Gadget Hackwrench and [[Cross-Dressing Voices|Chip]] [?!] (''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]''), Dot Warner and Hello Nurse (''[[Animaniacs]]''), Toast and Pepper Mills (''[[Histeria!]]''), Babs Bunny and Rhubella Rat (''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]''), Principal Skinner's mother Agnes (among several other ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' voices, including ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'', where she was Lisa's boyfriend Colin), Mom and "Good Morning Earth" co-host Linda (''[[Futurama]]''), Lady Bane and Marzipan (''[[Gummi Bears]]''), Callie Briggs (''[[Swat Kats]]''), Colleen (''[[Road Rovers]]'')...chances are, you've heard her voice.
** And yes, [[This Troper]] can confirm beyond mere cast listings that Tress did Chip in ''Rescue Rangers''. How? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKTPyxAJB2s Just watch this video.]
** Petrie's mom, Ducky's and Spike's mom (''[[The Land Before Time]]''), certain incarnates of Daisy Duck and [[The Flintstones|Wilma Flintstone]], Charlotte Pickles (''[[Rugrats]]''), and you forgot on ''[[Futurama]]'': Hattie, the suicide booth, Leela's mom, Tinny Tim, Ndnd, Fanny, The Grand Midwife, and just about every adult female extra voice. To name a few more...
** If you watch ''Avatar: The Last Airbender'' and hear Hama, there's a good chance you'll do a double take and go "[[The Simpsons (animation)|Agnes Skinner]]?" To this day I'm not sure if this makes the episode more or less creepy.
** [http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=b02IEYdSJXA Hey, look!] Hoodsey from ''[[As Told by Ginger]]'' leaves calls on [[Animaniacs|Minerva Mink's]] answering machine!
** She even got to be in nearly EVERY [[Studio Ghibli]] dub done by [[Disney]]!
** This troper remembers a commercial for Twinkies from around 2001 (I think) with some vultures that mistaken a yellow VW beetle for a Twinkie, and then one of the vultures says "HEY! Where's the cream filling? Now THAT'S the stuff! Hostess." Right when I heard that vulture talk, I thought, "Hey that's Agnes Skinner!" Yes, [https://web.archive.org/web/20091112022054/http://www.obligation.org/channelonevideo.php?id=80 Tress MacNeille even gets into junk food commercials]!
** [[Hey Arnold!|Arnold's]] [[Crazy Awesome]] grandma, anyone?
** However, [[Rugrats|she's not Tommy!]] [[Nightmare Fuel|Hahahahahaha!]]

* '''Julie Maddalena'''
** A bizarre coincidence, or [[Actor Allusion]]? Julie Maddalena is the English voice of [[Tenchi in Tokyo|Sakuya Kumashiro]] and [[Wolf's Rain|Myu]]. If you've seen both series, you'll know [[Lotus Eater Machine|the connection]].
** She's also the [[Ghost in the Shell|Tachikomas]]!
** She was also a [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1127697/ frog] for some time. They've since replaced the voice actor for the series (along with giving the series an [[Art Shift]]), but this troper will always remember her as a smart and sweet frog.
** This troper knows her best as [[Vandread|Dita Liebely]], the future Mrs. Alien.
** Not to mention [[Magic Knight Rayearth|Hikaru Shidou]].

* '''Mitsuako Madono'''
** This Troper found it amusing that while [[Fate/stay night|Issei]] sounds nothing like [[Bleach|Kon]], Mitsuaki Madono ''does'' use practically the same voice for Kon's [[Image Song]].
*** He also sounds exactly the same for [[Busou Renkin|Papillon]]. Characters could not be more different.
** Strangely enough, I was surprised when I found out that Mitsuaki Madono played Prince Toma in the second ''[[Ranma ½]]'' movie, and it was even stranger that when I found out Allesandro Juliani (Prince Toma's dub VA) played L in ''[[Death Note]]''

* '''Mako'''
** The late Mako. It's really weird to think of [[Samurai Jack|Aku]], [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (film)|Master Splinter]], and [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|Iroh]] as the same guy. Though those last two aren't much of a stretch. Also, he narrates [[Conan the Barbarian]].

* '''Dave Mallow'''
** {{spoiler|The Anti-Spiral King}} from ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' is a nihilistic [[Digimon|Angemon]] or (more appropriately) an all-powerful [[FLCL|Amarao]]. Weird. What's weirder... is that two of them are both produced by GAINAX!
** Sounds more like MagnaAngemon with the reverb. [[Calling Your Attacks|Gate of Destiny!]]
*** Ever want to hear Amarao talk with a mouth full of toothpaste? Just look at [[Bleach|Kensei]]!

* '''[[Patty Maloney]]'''
** In ''[[Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School]]'', Patty used her [[The Little Rascals|Darla Hood]] voice for Tanis the mummy girl.

* '''Sharon Mann'''
** In ''[[Code Lyoko]]'', Sharon Mann plays both Jeremie and Aelita. So the [[Beta Couple]] is [[Talking to Himself|talking to themselves]]!
** By the way, the show has a limited (and obscure) voice cast, so there's a lot of [[Talking to Himself]] going on there.

* '''[[Jason Marsden]]'''
** Jason Marsden gets around a lot. Haku in ''[[Spirited Away]]'', Kovu in the second ''[[Lion King]]'', Chase Young in ''[[Xiaolin Showdown]]''. Also Tino from ''[[The Weekenders]]'', Richie from ''[[Static Shock]]'', Chester and Gary from ''[[The Fairly OddParents]]'', and [[Goof Troop|Max Goof]]. So he sort of switches from deep and sexy to sort of nerdy. He is also [[Dark Forces Saga|Rosh]] whose voice work is a common reason he is seen as [[The Scrappy]]...
** Maybe that's why I get nervous every time I see him as Jaime Reyes' buddy Paco. As deep as ''[[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]'' digs, I'm nervous that Vibe is gonna show up some episode...
** Adding to the list: a young Clark Kent (as well as Snapper Carr, another, unrelated reporter) in the [[DCAU]] and the annoying Dustil "Carth's Son" Onasi (and gang leader Brejik too) in ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]].''
** He was Haku in ''[[Spirited Away]]''.
*** This troper actually yelled "TINO TONITINI" when watching ''[[Spirited Away]]'' and hearing Haku's voice.
** And he's Nermal in ''[[The Garfield Show]]'', with the same voice he uses for Chester.
** Let's not forget his contributions to Black Isle Studios: Cernd (''[[Baldur's Gate]] II'') and Myron (''[[Fallout 2]]''). ... Actually, on second thought you might ''want'' to forget the latter.
** He was also recognizable as Schnookums in ''[[The Schnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show]]'', using a voice similar to Chester's.
** He was also the voice of the cat, Thackery Binx, in ''[[Hocus Pocus]]''.
** Crest in ''[[Dark Cloud]] 2''. Poor, poor Crest.
* '''[[Mona Marshall]]'''
** Mona Marshall is instantly recognisable whenever she is cast in the role of a little boy, [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|which is often.]]
** This troper was so familiar with Marshall as Toboe in ''[[Wolf's Rain]]'' that he found it incongruous when she replaced Petrea Burchard as the voice of Ryoko in ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]]''. He can't help thinking she sounds like Toboe doing a fair-to-middling impression of Ryoko.
** That may have happened because Ryoko's JP actress has done cute little boy roles. Genis of ''[[Tales of Symphonia]]'', for example.
** [[Digimon Adventure|Koushiro 'Izzy' Izumi]] and [[Persona 3|Ken Amada]].
** Hell, go watch ''[[Last Exile]]''. The two creepy albino Guild guys are voiced by Tai and Izzy. It's quite unnerving.
** Hell, Izzy and [[Digimon Savers|King Drasil]]! Jeff Nimoy claims this comparison was on purpose. Like Ichigo/Lelouch.
** Feldrance of ''[[Mahoromatic]]'' is voiced by Mona Marshall, which is why he sounds like [[Digimon Adventure 02|Izzy Izumi]].
** Also in the Pigeonholing, Ascot from ''[[Magic Knight Rayearth]]''.
** Out of mold, but the same voice was also [[X 1999|Nataku]]
** A perfect androgynous voice I might add, for a genderless character.
** She used her exact same Izzy/Toboe voice for the moose kid in the pilot for the aborted ''[[The Get Along Gang]]'' CGI [[Revival]].
** Dude. She's the [[Brave Fencer Musashi|Brave fencer, Musashi!]]
** As mentioned above, her role as cute little boy Seere in ''[[Drakengard]]'' is instantly recognizable, but perhaps not so obvious—and considerably more brain-breaking—is the fact that she also provides the voice of Angelus, the huge, snarky red dragon in the same game.
** This troper first got weirded out by recognising a voice from her past in [[Blue Dragon|Shu]] and recognised the aforementioned Izzy Izumi. About a month later she started ''Naruto'' and recognised Marshall as Inari (the little kid with the hat in the Wave Country, anyone? Aka [[Naruto the Abridged Series|Gilligan]]) and Young Haku.

* '''Vincent Martella'''
** Those with sharp ears will reconize the English voice of ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'''s Hope as the voice of [[Phineas and Ferb]].
*** Forcing one scene in FFXII to hit harder for the Phineas and Ferb fans.
{{quote|'''Hope (in Phineas' voice):''' Mommy? Mommy!  {{spoiler|His mother's dead. He's seeing an illusion. And he uses a more mature tone normally so...}}}}
* He was also the young Robin that gets his arse handed to him by the Joker and a crowbar in ''[[Batman: Under the Red Hood]]''.

* '''[[Charles Martinet]]'''
** The Homunculus in ''[[Shadow of Destiny]]'' is voiced by Charles Martinet, who is better known as the voice of [[Super Mario Bros.|Mario]]. These may be the two least similar characters in the history of video games.
** He also did all the voices in ''Super [[Punch-Out!!]]'' including all the opponents, the referee (ironically) and the blond Little Mac.

* '''Tim Matheson'''
** The voice of [[Jonny Quest]] in TOS.
** Besides extensive live action work in TV and film, he would also do voice-work on ''Sinbad, Jr.'', ''[[Space Ghost]]'', ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]'', and ''[[The Legend of Calamity Jane]]''.

* '''[[Miyu Matsuki]]'''
** [[Hayate the Combat Butler|Isumi Saginomiya]], [[Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu|Yukari]] (no not [[Azumanga Daioh|that]] one), and [[Da Capo|Yoriko/Misaki]] at your service.

* '''Yuki Matsuoka'''
** [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Tsuruya]], [[Azumanga Daioh|Osaka]], and [[Elfen Lied|Nana]] are one and the same. And don't forget [[Bleach|Orihime]] and [[Ojamajo Doremi|Aiko]].

* '''Rick May'''
** Went from doing five distinct voices in ''[[Star Fox (series)|Star FOX]] 64'' to doing one instantly recognizable voice in ''[[Team Fortress 2]]''.

* '''Rik Mayall'''
** Rik "[[The Young Ones]]" Mayall has a fairly recognizable voice. He voiced Prince Froglip, the villain of the 1992 movie ''The Princess And The Goblin''; [[King Arthur]] in ''[[King Arthur's Disasters]]'', a German falcon in ''[[Valiant]]'' and [[Talking Pest|a germ in a Domestos advert]]. He also provides numerous voices for ''[[Hogs of War]]'', including one with a Rick-style voice.
** And, in live action, ''[[Drop Dead Fred]]''.

* '''Anndi McAfee'''
** This troper recently learned that [[The Land Before Time|Cera]] is Monica of ''Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicle''.

* '''David McCallum'''
** When Doctor Paradox was telling [[Flash Back|his story]] in a recent ''[[Ben 10: Alien Force|Ben 10 Alien Force]]'' episode, it finally clicked for me...[[NCIS|"Ducky?"]]
*** This troper just watched an episode of Alien Force today and, being a fan of NCIS, was shocked to discover what the above troper found out. There was no way of mistaking David McCallum's voice for any other.

* '''James McCaffrey'''
** [[Max Payne (series)|Max Payne]] and [[Alone in the Dark|Edward Carnby]].

* '''[[Michael McConnohie]]'''
** [[Tropers/Cidolfas|This troper]] will forever associate Michael McConnohie with noble baddie Commander Margulis from ''[[Xenosaga]]''. This makes his appearances as noble baddies in ''[[Tales of the Abyss]]'' and ''[[Star Ocean]] 3'' seem like deja vu, and his voice is very noticeable in [[Haibane Renmei]] and as [[Disgaea: Hour of Darkness|Gordon, DEFENDER OF EARTH!]] in ''very'' different roles.
** Or that [[Code Geass|Emperor Charles]] is The Director in [[Crackdown]] and [[Street Fighter|Seth]].
** There's also a character that I'm sure few people have heard of. He's known as [[World of Warcraft|The Lich King]]...
*** [[Bleach|Make that two Lich Kings he's voiced.]]
** The Lich King was a [[Haré+Guu|tribal elder dude]]? Weird...
** Wait, [[Vampire Hunter D]] and the narrator from [[Dynasty Warriors|Dynasty Warriors 6]] and [[Warriors Orochi]] are the same guy?

* '''Kevin McDonald'''
** Kevin McDonald uses pretty much the same voice for several animated characters, including Pleakley from ''[[Lilo and Stitch]]'', ''[[Invader Zim|Invader Zim's]]'' Almighty Tallest Purple, Waffle from ''Catscratch'', and Ivan, a character who appeared in an episode of ''[[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends|Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends]]''...and Waffle. Splee!
** He's also the announcer at the convention at the end of ''[[Galaxy Quest]]''.

* '''[[Norm MacDonald]]'''
** Years ago, I watched an ep of something on [[YouTube]] where Norm MacDonald played some kind of psychologist that was talking to a kid that believed he was [[Pokémon (anime)|Ash Ketchum]]. Then I watched ''[[The Fairly OddParents]]'' a few years later and he was [[Literal Genie|Norm the Genie]]. That was very ironic, since on the [[YouTube]] thing, he had trouble controlling Pokémon and could somehow [[Reality Warper|create Poké Balls from thin air]]. I recognized the tone of scorn. Very hilarious.
** He's also Death on ''[[Family Guy]]''.

* '''Jesse McCartney'''
** Yes, this singer also was the voice of Roxas and Ventus in the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' series, as well as Terence in the ''Tinker Bell'' series, Theodore in ''[[Alvin and the Chipmunks]]'', JoJo in ''[[Horton Hears a Who!]]'', and Huxley in ''The Clockwork Girl''.
* '''[http://jessicaerinmartin.com/ Jessica Martin]'''
** The voice of Samus Aran in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]'' is also a prominent actress in the Seattle theatre scene.

* '''Malcolm McDowell'''
** ''[[Fallout 3]]'' apparently [[Heroes (TV series)|Mr. Linderman]] apparently has become president. The best part is that he barely [[Not Even Bothering with the Accent|bothers with the accent]]. Kentucky, my ass.
** This troper would love to have heard his campaign speeches: "Vote for me, John Henry Eden. Because there's plenty more [[Dropped a Bridge on Him|bridges]] where that one came from."
*** [[Teen Titans (animation)|ALLO DUCKIES!]]
** A double dose in the [[DCAU]]: Arkady Duvall, AKA  {{spoiler|Ra's Al Ghul's son}} on ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]'' and Metallo on ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]'' and ''[[Justice League]]''.
** Voices the animated version of his character from ''[[Wing Commander (video game)|Wing Commander]] III'' and ''[[Wing Commander (video game)|Wing Commander]] IV'', in ''[[Wing Commander Academy]]'' (as does [[Mark Hamill]] and Tom Wilson, for their respective characters).

* '''Roddy McDowall'''
* [[Tropers/Bat 1701|This troper]] knew [[Pinky and The Brain|Snowball]] was crazy but upon closer observation realized he was [[Batman: The Animated Series|Mad as a Hatter]].

* '''[[Mary Elizabeth McGlynn]]'''
** ''[[Supreme Commander]]'' had a female commander voiced by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn, who also does Maj. Kusanagi in ''[[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex]]''.
** The icing on the cake? Batou is her second-in-command.
** She also voices Estelle Oratorio, elder sister of [[Wendee Lee|Loretta]], on episode 9 of ''[[Wild ARMs]]: Twilight Venom''.
** If you'd like to hear her sing she's done numerous songs for the ''[[Silent Hill]]'' games.

* '''Julia McIlvaine'''
** While not a profilific voice actress, this troper was watching ''[[MAD]]'' for the first time, and was thinking...''[[KaBlam!|June]]!?''

* '''Ellen McLain'''
** Valve has spawned some notorious [[WMG]] by using the same voice actress (Ellen McLain) for the [[Half-Life|Combine Overwatch]], [[Portal (series)|GLaDOS]], and [[Team Fortress 2|the Announcer]].

* '''Scott McCulloch'''
** Chris Redfield in the original ''[[Resident Evil]]''.
** Wild Dog in the ''[[Time Crisis]]'' series.
*** Derrick Lynch in ''Crisis Zone''.
** Dracula in ''[[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night]]''.
** Greg in ''[[Bloody Roar]]''.

* '''Patrick McKenna'''
** The more you listen to [[Scaredy Squirrel|Nestor]], the more he sounds like [[The Red Green Show|Harold]]. This is particularly evident when either character yells. Patrick's [[Spliced|Two-Legs Joe]] voice, on the other hand, is much deeper.

* '''[[Scott McNeil]]'''
** In ''[[Transformers Armada]]'' and ''[[Transformers Energon]]'', Jetfire sounds a heck of a lot like [[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Duo Maxwell]], who himself sounds suspiciously like [[Mega Man (video game)|Proto Man]]. The odd thing about this is that their shared voice actor, Scott McNeil, normally avoids this effect completely (see ''Beast Wars'', where he voiced Rattrap, Waspinator, both versions of Dinobot, and Silverbolt!).
** This troper was a fan of ''[[Beast Wars]]'' and ''[[X-Men: Evolution]]'' back when they were new. It took him several trips to [[The Other Wiki]] to learn that Badass Dinobot and Badass Wolverine are one and the same guy.
** Still, he does seem to have a few favorite voices. In particular, if he's voicing a reptilian character, he will likely sound exactly like Dinobot. And [[Inuyasha|Koga the feral wolfy guy]] sounded just like ''Evolution'''s Wolverine the feral wolfy guy.
** Snarling, psychotic [[Dawn of War|Lord Bale]] loses some of his menace when you learn he has the same voice actor as [[Care Bears|Funshine Bear]].
*** He loses more of it once you find out that he's also the same voice actor that plays a tree that [[Pungeon Master|cracks bad jokes]] in ''[[Dragon Tales]]''.
** How has [[Darkstalkers|Lord Raptor]] not been mentioned yet?!
** This troper once saw part of the [[So Bad It's Good]] ''[[Street Fighter (animation)|Street Fighter]]'' cartoon, and literally said "Rattrap, is that ''you?''" once Ken opened his mouth.
** And don't forget Piccolo of Dragonball Z.
** The titular [[Sealed Evil in a Can]] in ''[[Ys]]: The Ark of Napishtim''.

* '''Courtland Mead'''
** In [[The Nineties]] he starred in three different [[Disney]] shows: Gus Griswald in ''[[Recess]]'', Lloyd Nebulon in ''[[Lloyd in Space]]'', and Ned Needlemeyer in ''[[Nightmare Ned]]''

* '''[[Scott Menville]]'''
** Scott Menville did the voice of the main character in ''[[Dark Cloud]] 2''.
** He also did the voice of the main character in ''[[Tales of Symphonia]]''.
** THIS troper noticed on his second playthrough of ''Tales of Symphonia'' that Scott Menville also voiced one of the villagers of Isalia in one of the cutscenes. The irony? This particular villager was among the group of villagers blaming Lloyd for {{spoiler|the attack on the village.}} He was essentially advocating his own exile!
** This troper however had the horrible fortune to first hear him as Kevin French in ''[[Mission Hill]]''. It took a long, long time to untrain that reference.
** He also played Yaibal in ''FFX-2''.
** The only time this troper has heard him voice a character with anything other than the distinctive Robin voice is when he did Ma-Ti's horrendous accent in ''[[Captain Planet and the Planeteers]]''.
** [[Metal Gear Solid|Genome Soldier 2]]. A low point. Or not, if you enjoy beating, shooting and snapping the neck of Robin as often as you want.
** An episode of ''[[Scrubs]]'' had J.D. be followed around by [[Donnie Darko|an imaginary guy in a rabbit costume]]. And when that rabbit speaks, guess who's voice comes out? [[Teen Titans (animation)|Robin]]/[[Captain Planet and the Planeteers|Ma-Ti]]/[[Tales of Symphonia|Lloyd]]!
*** Again using his Kevin French voice.
** He played the actor playing Sokka in "The Ember Island Players", with a voice almost identical to the one he uses for Kevin French from ''[[Mission Hill]]''
** This Troper knew all along that it had to be [[A Pup Named Scooby-Doo|Red Herring]]!.
** He plays Egon Stetmann in ''[[StarCraft II]]'' using his [[Dark Cloud|Max]] voice. It is really apparent when he says "Just fascinating!".
** He also played King in the Wild Cards episode of the Justice League. Given that this is in the same universe as the Teen Titans it was awkward to hear Robins voice coming out of a villain.
** On top of that he did extra voices in a ton of video games including FFXII in which he gave one bystander the voice of Robin.

* '''Matthew Mercer'''
** Matthew Mercer? Let's see...[[Mortal Kombat|Kurtis Stryker]], [[Fist of the North Star|Rei]], [[Street Fighter|Fei-Long]], [[Sengoku Basara|Keiji Maeda]], [[No More Heroes|Skelter Helter]]...
*** And now? [[Mortal Kombat 9|Kurtis Stryker]]. Way to go to [[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap|rescue someone from the Scrappy heap!]]
** Outside of fighting games, he also voices [[Ace Combat 5 The Unsung War|Albert Genette]] and [[Star Ocean: The Last Hope|Edge Maverick]]. Both with a similar-sounding opening narration, too!

* '''Don Messick'''
** Voice actor Don Messick (RIP) was in dozens of [[Hanna-Barbera]] cartoons, most notably as Ranger Smith and Boo Boo in ''[[Yogi Bear]]'' and as Dr. Benton Quest and Bandit in ''[[Jonny Quest]]''. If you were very young and watched both shows, you started expecting Race Bannon to show up in Jellystone Park with a picnic basket.
** If this troper remembers correctly, Don also voiced Hamton in ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]''.
** And [[Scooby Doo]]!
** And Papa Smurf.

* '''[[Vic Mignogna]]'''
** A minor role in ''[[Bleach]]'' for Vic Mignogna was a screaming character in the 11th squad (Ikkaku Madarame). The voice was the same as the voice used for the main character in ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', and therefore a bit confusing to this troper.
** This troper, a fan of Vic, has learned to pick out his voice in the most minor of roles, including a Professor in ''[[Dirty Pair]]'' and as random goons in ''[[Noir]]''.
** This troper was flabbergasted when watching the first episode of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle and could only wonder why Edward Elric in a quiet mood was voicing Fay D. Fluorite.
** There is an exception where it's almost not recognizable at all: [[Dragonball Z|Broly]]. Unfortunately, Vic has made it clear at various cons that he loses his voice for a while afterwards and so doesn't like doing him (considering that the games aren't stopping...yeah.).
** This Troper was shamed that he could not tell that he voiced Junpei of [[Persona 3]] fame. However he could tells very quickly that he voiced Kurz Webber of Full Metal Panic! fame.
** Did we mention we can add [[Ouran High School Host Club|Tamaki]] to that list? That was the sound of a thousand fangirls doing a group [[Squee]], especially since [[Caitlin Glass|the same person that was Winry]] plays Haruhi.
** How can you forget Antoinette?! He played a DOG.
** This Troper can't believe nobody added Kensei Ma or [[D.N.Angel|Dark]] yet.
** [[Aura Battler Dunbine|Neal Givens]] has a, shall we say, strange Scottish accent, but you'll know it's Vic when you hear him barking orders at the crew of the Zelana.
** He also voices [[One-Scene Wonder]] Femio from ''[[Princess Tutu]]'', which is [[Crowning Moment of Funny|downright hillarious]]. It's made all the more awesome when you realize how similar he is to Tamaki.
** ''And'' he had a small part opposite [[Travis Willingham|Roy Mustang]] in [[Mushishi]].
** Recently cast as Spirit Albarn for the English dub of [[Soul Eater]].
** Here's a voice that nearly killed this troper due to laughter: [[Ambiguously Gay|Lacerta]] [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Misty]] in the English dub of [[Saint Seiya]]. I have never heard Vic Mignogna pull a voice like that ever in my life, but I guessed it due to too much watching of [[Fullmetal Alchemist]]! It's the laugh.
** He's also Bui in ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'', in which his voice is much deeper than expected and rather nice.
*** And Uraurashima from the same show, which sounds a bit more typically "him."
** He's also the main character, Mao, in ''Disgaea 3''.
** This troper has trouble finding an anime that he ISN'T in, courtesy of countless small roles in Tactics, Moeyo Ken, Kaze No Stigma, Mushishi, Darker Than Black, Spiral, Orphen, Pumpkin Scissors, D.Gray-Man... the list goes on and on. Every time this troper tries a new series, there he is.
** Very soon, he's going to be voicing Zero from [[Vampire Knight]]
** He's the newest voice for Omega from ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]''.
** Let's not forget a very interesting turn as Kensei of ''[[Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple]]''.
** He's played a pair of Mitsuhide Akechis, [[Samurai Warriors|one good]], [[Sengoku Basara|one... not so much]].

* '''Shinchiro Miki'''
** Shinichiro Miki, better known as [[Bleach|Urahara]], [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Lockon Stratos]], [[Initial D|Takumi Fujiwara]], [[Full Metal Panic!|Kurz Weber]], [[The Dark Knight Saga|Batman in Gotham Knight]], [[Scrapped Princess|Shannon Casull]], [[Strait Jacket|Leiot Steinberg]], and [[Weiss Kreuz|Yoji Kudo]].
*** Don't forget [[Pokémon (anime)|Kojirou]].
*** He was also the Japanese voice of the titular character in ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]''. Yeah.
*** And now he's [[Fullmetal Alchemist|Roy Mustang]]

* '''[[Lara Jill Miller]]'''
** Lara Jill Miller has had a bit of an illustrious voice acting career, immediately recognizable as the English dub voice Kari Kamiya from the ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'' series, the teacher in Digimon Tamers, one of the Tachikomas in ''[[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex]]'', Scheris Adjani from the anime ''[[S-Cry-ed]]'', and as the eponymous [[The Life and Times of Juniper Lee|Juniper Lee]]. Each character having essentially the same voice.
** Gaara's student Matsuri is played by her, and sound a lot like Kari.
** Same with Misao Kusakabe in the ''[[Lucky Star]]'' dub.
** She's also ''Clifford the Big Red Dog'', when he's a puppy. I started laughing when I first heard that fact.

* '''Shirley Millner'''
** Though she's appeared in relatively few shows compared to some other VA's on this page, her distinctive syrupy, nasal voice is instantly recognizable to fans, no matter who she plays. She has had roles in shows such as ''[[Dragon Tales]]'' and ''[[Silverwing (animation)|Silverwing]]'', but [[User:Ziggy Stardust Forever|this troper]] shall forever remember her as Hexadecimal from ''[[ReBoot]]''.
** Same, here. Anytime this troper watches any of her other roles, all she can think is, "AHHHHHH, HEXADECIMAL!!!".

* '''[[Candi Milo]]'''
** She's done characters from [[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends|Coco]] all the way to [[Dexter's Laboratory|Dexter]].
** What would [[My Life as a Teenage Robot|Tuck]] sound like with a Bronx accent? That's [[ChalkZone|Snap]] for ya.
** [[Dissidia Final Fantasy|Shantotto. OHOHOHOHO!!!]]

* '''Junko Minagawa'''
** She's voiced [[The Prince of Tennis|Ryoma Echizen]] and [[Loveless|Ritsuka Aoyagi]], who sound exactly alike.
** Not to mention she also voiced Ayaka Yukihiro. and [[Code Geass|Cornelia li Britannia]]. She may sound the same when she does boys, but that doesn't make her any less talented!

*  '''Lani Minella'''
** Her Interactive has established her as the video-game voice of [[Nancy Drew]], which leaves one wondering why the girl detective moonlights as a [[Ms. Fanservice|talking bat]] in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]''.
** She's also a [[Mother 3|blond psychic]] and an [[Kid Icarus|angel warrior]] in the third game of the [[Super Smash Bros.]] series. [[Cross-Dressing Voices|Both are male.]]

* '''[[Kotono Mitsuishi]]'''
** Excel's [[Kotono Mitsuishi|Japanese voice actress]] in ''[[Excel Saga (anime)|Excel Saga]]'' also did the voice of the title character in ''[[Sailor Moon]]''. This troper has been reassured that both characters have roughly the same personality.
** Lampshaded in the English dub, during a ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' parody, where Excel claims "No fair! I wanted that part, but it was dubbed in Canada!"
** Even more fun is the gag at the end of one episode where Hyatt, for whatever reason, starts saying lines from Omi Minami's past roles (Monica Rial's in the dub). Excel realizes this, [[No Fourth Wall|of course]]. "Hey Hatchan... ''wrong character!''"
** One that goes against almost every other character she's done, and astonished it's not mentioned--[[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Katsuragi Misato]] Hearing Usagi's voice in hers is... yikes.

* '''[[Yuko Miyamura]]'''
** It took a few moments to sink in, but imagine the shock when finding out that [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Asuka]] is the lone girl {{spoiler|(excluding [[Mind Screw|Xion]])}} of [[Kingdom Hearts|Organization 13]]! (Though she could never really match Larxene's [[Giggling Villain|psychotic little giggle]])

* '''[[Mamoru Miyano]]'''
** This ''[[Death Note]]'' fan had a hard time thinking about anything else whenever Tamaki spoke in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]''.
** This troper had the opposite problem as the original poster; he could not stop hearing Tamaki in Light and that made it so much harder to take [[Death Note]] seriously.
** Watch the cutscenes from ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' in Japanese, then. ... Or don't. Comparing Light and Riku kind of hurts my brain.
** And [[This Troper]] found it extremely difficult to avoid seeing Light behind both LA from ''[[El Cazador de la Bruja]]'' and Setsuna from ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Gundam 00]]''. What with being a psycho and a [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]], respectively...
** Unfortunately, this troper gets the same feel even when listening to Chaoji in ''[[D.Gray-man]]'', although he is neither as smart as Light, nor as handsome as Light or Tamaki.
** Also noticeable is the fact that Mamoru does the voice of Death the Kid in [[Soul Eater]] and does a fairly good job of changing from deathly serious son of the grim reaper to wacky symmetry obsessive at break neck speeds.
** He's also the Japanese-dubbed voice of [[Watchmen (comics)|Nite Owl II]].
** Recently, he's started voicing Ling Yao in ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]:Brotherhood''.
** And even more recently, Dento in the latest season of ''Pokémon'', which... at least, isn't too far from his roles as Tamaki or [[Keet|Kida Masaomi]] in ''[[Durarara!!]]''.

* '''[[Kouki Miyata]]'''
** He voices Yamada Hanataro in ''[[Bleach]]'' and Labrador in ''[[07-Ghost|Zero Seven Ghost]]'' and it's easy to recognize him.
** Also [[The Imp|Picodevimon]] from [[Digimon Adventure]] and young [[Trigun|Vash the Stampede]]

* '''Kaori Mizuhashi'''
** We've got Kaori Mizuhashi, who has done [[La Pucelle|Culotte]], [[Disgaea|Laharl]], [[Phantom Brave|Marona]], [[Makai Kingdom|Pram]], [[Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories|Hanako]], [[Soul Nomad|Shauna]] and [[Hidamari Sketch|Miyako]].

* '''Kaoru Mizuhara'''
** The [[Lucky Star|excitable girl yelling "Hiiragi!"]], Misao, is also the girl who yells "Don't call me your older sister!", Yomi in ''[[Ga-Rei Zero]]''.

* '''[[Nana Mizuki]]'''
** Speaking of Nanoha-related connections, this troper thinks the similarities between [[Shugo Chara|Hoshina Utau]] and [[Lyrical Nanoha|Fate Testarossa]] are...a lot. Same VA? Check. Uses a lot of black clothing? Check. Blonde hair? Check. Twintails? Check! Wait, is this a [[Shout-Out]]?
*** It doesn't help that she is an [[Idol Singer]] and she sings Mizuki Nana's song. While Fate may not, every opening songs of the Nanoha series is sung by this very woman. Likewise, Yukari Tamura, Nanoha's seiyuu, sings every ending songs of this series.
** So [[Heartcatch Pretty Cure|Cure Blossom]]'s voice is done by the same gal as [[Princess Tutu|Princess Kraehe]]'s even if they are complete opposites? Wow.

* '''Yuko Mizutani'''
** I found myself watching Kashimashi, and I couldn't help but to suddenly like [[Dojikko|clumsy teacher]] Namiko Tsuki. Then I said: "Wait a minute!", I did a quick search on [[The Other Wiki]] to found something I should have noticed earlier: She's [[Super Robot Wars|Excellen Browning!!]] (voiced by Yuko Mizutani) That's not so obvious with other of her characters, like [[Ill Girl]] [[Tekkaman Blade|Miyuki Aiba]], but Namiko is so Excellen-like, down to the goofy voice and noisy persona.

* '''Dominic Monaghan'''
** This Troper burst out laughing when she realized that Merry from ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]'' also did the voice for Glenn/Glenda in ''Seed Of Chucky''.
** Hell WORMTONGUE of all people voiced Chucky!!
*** Hate to rain on your parade, but it was Billy Boyd, ''Pippin'' from ''Lord Of The Rings'' who voiced Glenn/Glenda in ''Seed Of Chucky''.

* '''Ricardo Montalban'''
** And now a moment of silence for Ricardo Montalban, aka [[Freakazoid!|Gutierrez]] and [[Kim Possible|Señor Senior, Sr.]] RIP.
** A very brave cow in ''[[Family Guy]]''.
** I scared the crap out of my little sister while she was watching Kim Possible by yelling KHAAAAAAAN! at the screen when I heard Señor Senior, Sr. speak.

* '''Toshiyuki Morikawa'''
** Japanese voice actor, has borrowed his voice to [[Brad Pitt]], [[Keanu Reeves]], [[Tom Cruise]] and... Katsuya Jounouchi in the Toei version of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]''

* '''[[Masakazu Morita]]'''
** This troper has fell out of her chair when she was listening to [[Beck]] and she heard [[Bleach|Kurosaki Ichigo]] talking. The voices were so identical that she was really wondering why she hadn't notice before. [[Beck|Masaru Hyoudou]] is a side-character so by the time she realised his voice, he was already out of the picture...

* '''[[Kirby Morrow]]'''
** While watching ''Barbie and the Nutcracker'' with my little sister, I immediately recognized the Nutcracker Prince's voice as the guy who did Miroku on the English dub of ''[[Inuyasha]]''! It's even more awesome when you realize that Barbie happens to be Sango from the same show!
** He's also Cyclops in ''[[X-Men: Evolution]]''.
** Rad in ''[[Transformers Armada]]'' and ''Energon'', and [[The Other Darrin]] for Hot Shot in ''Cybertron''.
** What would happen if [[Inuyasha|Miroku]] got his hands on a [[Death Note]]? DELETE! DELETE! DELETE!!

* '''Kate Mulgrew'''
** This troper had this rather spectacularly subverted on her. Since she heard [[Star Trek: Voyager|Janeway]]'s voice before she actually saw the visuals from the show, her first thought was, "Holy shit, Katharine Hepburn's been reincarnated!" Well, then she saw the [[Fan Nickname]] for the aforementioned Captain and busted a gut laughing.
** Per the ''[[Gargoyles]]'' tradition of casting ''[[Star Trek]]'' actors in voice roles, we have [[Star Trek: Voyager|Captain Janeway]] as Titania, Queen of the [[The Fair Folk|Third Race]].
** ...Did [[Star Trek: Voyager|Captain Janeway]] really just [[Dragon Age|turn into a dragon and attack me]]?
** She also played The Claw, a minor [[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman]] villain.

* '''[[Bill Murray]]'''
** Bill Murray voiced the film version of [[Garfield]] as an homage to Lorenzo Music. Among many other notables, Music voiced Murray's ''[[Ghostbusters]]'' character, [[Ghostbusters|Dr. Peter Venkman]]. ''See below.''

* '''Brian Doyle-Murray'''
** Brian Doyle-Murray. You know, [[SpongeBob SquarePants|the flying dutchman]]? You'll know him when you hear him.
** Hell, ''any'' character played by Brian Doyle-Murray.
** I swear, everytime that granddad in [[The Goode Family]] speaks, I can't help but think of [[The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack|Captain K'Nuckles]].
** Mayor Jock Mulligan in ''Ghostbusters: The Video Game''.

* '''Lorenzo Music'''
** As a child, [[Tropers/Xyzzy|this troper]] liked ''[[Adventures of the Gummi Bears]]''. Later in life, the wonders of cable television syndication introduced her to ''[[Garfield and Friends]]''. She then started to watch another cartoon which had previously failed to interest her, ''[[The Real Ghostbusters]]'', due to accidentally hearing a few seconds of dialogue from Peter. A few years later, she found ''Gummi Bears'' on the air again, and tuned in for nostalgia's sake. "Gee, it's been so long," mused the tropette. "I don't even remember which was my favorite gummi bear..." A few seconds later, Tummi opens his mouth and: "Oh. It must have been that one." In conclusion, Lorenzo Music.
** Speaking of which, Music also did the voice of Peter Venkman on ''[[The Real Ghostbusters]]'', which surprised [[Tropers/SAMAS|This Troper]] when he first heard Garfield speak. He also thought it a nice touch when, after Music's passing Bill Murray (who of course was Venkman in the movies) voiced Garfield for ''his'' movie.
** To Tropers of a certain age Lorenzo Music will always be Carlton The Doorman from ''Rhoda'', which was his first VO part.
** Mr. Music (heh) also provided the voice for Sgt Dunder, in the [[Disney]] cartoon ''[[Tale Spin]]''.

* '''[[Hitomi Nabatame]]'''
** Apparently, [[Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu|Ruko Ayase]] sounds like a more violent, but no less drunk [[Hayate the Combat Butler|Yukiji Katsura]].

* '''[[Mai Nakahara]]'''
** [[Saki (manga)|Saki]]'s big sister sounds awfully familiar in those flashbacks of hers... wait a minute, [[Lyrical Nanoha|Teana]]? Is that you?
** When not affected by {{spoiler|Hinamizawa Syndrome}} and when not [[I'm Taking Her Home with Me|taking things/Rika home]], [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Rena Ryuugu]] sounds ''exactly'' like [[Clannad (visual novel)||Nagisa Furukawa]]. [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] is now kept awake at night because she always imagines Rena taking the Big Dango Family home, or conversely, Nagisa having one too many bad days and suddenly screaming "USO DA!"

* '''Yuichi Nakamura'''
** This editor's fiancee has a massive fangirl crush on [[Shugo Chara|Tsukiyomi Ikuto]]. This editor knows his voice actor best as being [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Graham Acre]]. The looks he gets from his fiancee when he refers to Ikuto as [[Memetic Mutation|Tsukiyomi HOWWAAAARRRD MAAASOOOOON Ikuto]] are increasingly hilarious.
** Kafuka and Fuko DO technically share eccentric traits. Well, it took this troper to realize until certain episodes involving baseball and random [[Ho Yay]] jokes in ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'' that Tomoya (the male lead) is Tayaka Abe from ''[[Ookiku Furikabutte]]''. Although not to the point of practically having [[Expy]] qualities, the two characters share the same sarcasm and wittiness traits as well. Does Yuichi Nakamura ever change his voice?
** What about someone as [[Hot-Blooded]] as [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Graham "TODAY I SURPASS THE ASHURA!!!" Aker]]?
** Try someone as EVIL as [[BlazBlue|Terumi Yuuki]], easily summable with "Give Graham more HAMS and evil." "THIS WORLD IS NOTHING BUT LIES!! LET ME SHOW YOU JUST ONE TRUTH, ONE TRUTH THAT IS 'I AM A [[Large Ham|GIGANTIC HAM]]!!'"

* '''Ryusei Nakao'''
** This person is possibly best known as ''[[Bleach]]'''s aptly nicknamed Captain Freakshow, Mayuri Kurotsuchi. Bet you didn't know he also provided the japanese dub voices for [[Tiny Toon Adventures|Buster Bunny]], ''[[Animaniacs|Yakko Warner]]'', and '''''[[Garfield|Jon Arbuckle]]'''''.
** He also [[Dragon Ball|killed an entire warrior race]]. [[Bleach|Twice]].
** He also voices [[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Demon Lord Ghirahim]].

* '''[[Joji Nakata]]'''
** Hearing [[Fate/stay night|Kotomine's]] voice come out of a [[Melty Blood|small catlike creature]] was disconcerting. Then again, Joji Nakata has a role in most parts of the [[Nasuverse]].

* '''[[Liam Neeson]]'''
** [[Tropers/Joie De Combat|This troper]] was thrilled to recognize <s>[[Schindler's List|Oskar Schindler]]</s> <s>[[Star Wars|Qui-Gon Jinn]]</s> <s>[[The Chronicles of Narnia|Aslan]]</s> <s>[[Les Misérables|Jean Valjean]]</s> <s>[[The Dark Knight Saga|Ra's Al Ghul]]</s> Liam Neeson as the voice of the Player Character's father in ''Fallout 3''.
** There have been reports that watching [[Taken (film)|Taken]] shortly before seeing ''[[Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea]]'' results in the impression that Ponyo's father is going to kill everybody to get his daughter back...

* '''George Newburn'''
** [[Justice League (animation)|Superman]] is [[Final Fantasy VII|Sephiroth]]? Wait- ''WHAT''?

* '''Richard Newman'''
** [[Street Fighter|M. Bison]] wants to know if you [[Punch-Out!!|NEED A HUG!?]]

* '''[[Leonard Nimoy]]'''
** In the fourth installment of the ''Civilization'' series, a quote is read to you whenever you have finished researching a technology... by [[Star Trek|Mr. Spock]].
*** That isn't his first time doing voices in video games though. Remember ''Seaman'' for the [[Sega Dreamcast]]? Yep, he was the strange fish AND the narrator.
** [[Star Trek|Spock]] and [[Transformers|Galvatron]] have more than [[Back from the Dead|resurrection]] in common. They're both voiced by Leonard Nimoy. Possibly the most diametrically opposed characters ever played by the same guy.
** And while watching ''[[Atlantis: The Lost Empire]]'', one can't help but notice the King of Atlantis sounds an awful lot like [[Star Trek|Spock...]]
** It seems that a character in the upcoming American release of ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep]]'' will be voiced by none other than [[Star Trek|Mr. Spock]], yes THAT [[Star Trek|Mr. Spock]]
** As soon as [[Transformers Film Series|Sentinel Prime]] speaks, one can't help but think "Crap, it's[[Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep|Master Xehanort]]!" This, and Wheelie seeing the [[Star Trek]] episode "where Spock goes nuts", {{spoiler|foreshadows Sentinel's [[Face Heel Turn]]}}.

* '''Ai Nonaka'''
** When [[Tropers/Shay Guy|this troper]] first started watching [[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]], he almost immediately thought "Holy crap, it's [[Clannad (visual novel)||Fuko]]!"
** She also plays [[Kamichu!|Sageusa Miko]]. This troper was like "So when is she gonna start calling Yurie Pink Supervisor?"
** It took [[DKN 117|this troper]] less than three seconds after hearing [[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei|Kafuka]] start talking to think "[[Mahou Sensei Negima|Konoka-chan]]!". The fact that [[Yuu Kobayashi|Setsuna]] is in this show too makes it moreso.

* '''Nolan North'''
** [[Uncharted Drakes Fortune|Nathan Drake]], [[Assassin's Creed|Desmond Miles]], [[Prince of Persia|The Prince]], [[Deadpool]], this guy has really been busy lately. In ''[[Singularity]]'', his distinctive voice is actually used as a [[Red Herring]].
** Elliot Salem in ''[[Army of Two|Army of Two: The 40th Day]]'', replacing the voice actor from the first game.
** Male Jedi Consular from ''[[The Old Republic]]'', who, interestingly, [[Uncharted Drakes Fortune|starts the game searching for an ancient treasure, and then has to deal with a plague/curse.]]
** ''[[Naruto|Madara-]][[Precision F-Strike|fucking-]][[Playing Against Type|Uchiha]]''.
* A little mod for ''[[Skyrim]]'' made by Valve resulted in the Space Core from [[Portal 2]] appearing in Skyrim, with Nolan North doing the voice work. From the official [http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=7375 mod description:]
{{quote|Also, since Skyrim was the only major release of 2011 without Nolan North in it, you should consider this mod a patch to fix that problem. You can now feel free to include Skyrim in the "Nolan North" section of your video game library, which is to say, [[Lampshade Hanging|your video game library]].}}

* '''[[Mamiko Noto]]'''
** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] did a double take when she watched ''[[Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu]]'' and realized that [[Clannad (visual novel)||Kotomi]] was an [[Otaku]]. The same thing happened in ''[[Girls Bravo]]'', crossdressing voice notwithstanding.
** Also, [[Mahou Sensei Negima|Nodoka]] playing [[Witchblade (anime)|Masane]]. Quite the transition.
** And now she also plays a ghost from a horror film... wait, never mind, it's just [[Kimi ni Todoke|Sawako]]. Still, the combination is remarkably effective...
** Also, Noto-san is either [[Kanokon|a boy named Kouta]] or [[Elfen Lied|a girl who is pining after a boy named Kouta]].
** How can we forget [[Keroro Gunsou|Angol Mois]] our lovely [[Dark-Skinned Blond|ganguro]] girl who is in love with her uncle. Sweet and Gentle but take note this girl can [[Person of Mass Destruction|destroy Planets]]

* '''Jerry Orbach'''
** Jerry Orbach voiced Lumiere in ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]'', and that voice is instantly recognizable at ''[[Disney Theme Parks|The Enchanted Tiki Room: Under New Management]]'' as Pierre
*** Not to mention the very different ''[[Law & Order|Law and Order]]'' he was enforcing as Zachary Foxx of the ''[[Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers|Galaxy Rangers]]''.
** He's also Sa'Luk in ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin and the King of Thieves]]''.

* '''[[Liam O'Brien]]'''
** While it's ''quite'' obvious that Liam O'Brien plays a very good [[Tales of the Abyss|Dist the Runny]], [[Valkyrie Profile|Lezard in Silmeria]], and [[Tales of Vesperia|Cumore]], all characters who have that rather demented and arrogant sounds to them, you can also hear that he's [[Bleach|Captain Utitake]] and that he doesn't ''always'' make his characters sound rather...demented.
** For the single line that [[Final Fantasy VII|Red XIII]] speaks, its' him.
** ...You mean that Lezard Valeth and Dist the Runny, all insane geniuses, is actually of all people, [[Naruto|GAARA?!?!?!?!]]
** ...And [[Persona|Akihiko]]?! (Well you shoulda guessed because several of his other roles are white-haired men.)
*** He's also [[Soul Nomad and The World Eaters|Levin]]. The two roles are a little alike: he's a fistfighting tank who battles for his sister.  {{spoiler|Except for the bit where that was all a lie, and Akihiko isn't somewhere on the wrong side of the [[Moral Event Horizon]]. Perhaps I should have mentioned that he also plays Raksha?}}
** As well as being [[Ergo Proxy|Vincent Law]] and [[Final Fantasy IV|Kain Highwind]]. It's no wonder Kain constantly feels like he's doing an emo monologue.
** He is also Kenzo Tenma in the English dub of ''[[Monster (manga)|Monster]]''. [[This Troper]] did a double take when she realized that Tenma is voiced by the same person who did [[Code Geass|Lloyd Asplund]].
** It's quite odd hearing an effeminate scientist, [[Code Geass|Lloyd Asplund]] as the evil pope, Sanctus in ''[[Devil May Cry]] 4''.
** And now apparently [[Fate/stay night|Archer]] has been reborn as a [[StarCraft II|Ghost]].
** And before that, he was [[Tokugawa Ieyasu|Tokugawa]] [[Sengoku Basara|Ieyasu]], in the most GAR form available.
** He's Spanish fighter Miguel Caballero Rojo in ''[[Tekken]] 6''.
** Don't forget [[Final Fantasy XIII-2|Caius Ballad]].

* '''Richard O'Brien'''
** Laurence (the father) from ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' is voiced by [[The Rocky Horror Picture Show|Riff Raff]].
** To make things even crazier, [[wikipedia:Barry Bostwick|Brad Majors (Asshole!) plays the grandpa]] and [[Tim Curry|Dr. Frank N Furter]] makes a guest appearance in one episode.
*** It's like a Rocky Horror voice reunion...in a kids' cartoon!
*** Maybe [[Meat Loaf|Marvin Lee Aday]] will show up as an adult Buford?

* '''[[Megumi Ogata]]'''
** Because it resulted in an [[I Knew It!]], Megumi Ogata. Known for playing boys ([[Yu Yu Hakusho|Kurama]], [[Cardcaptor Sakura|Yukito]], [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji]]) or tomboyish girls ([[Sailor Moon|Haruka]]), she also played the art thief Clayman in ''[[GetBackers]]''. Having already recognized her distinctive husky voice, the ''second'' Ban mentions that nobody knows anything about Clayman, including the thief's gender, this troper thought "I see you!! You're going to be a girl for the twist!"
** This troper will like to challenge the above troper to listen to Ogata in ''[[Samurai Deeper Kyo]]'', and try to determine the two characters she voices. Yukimura Sanada is the easy one; try picking out Kosuke Anayama without the visual cue.
** Shinji Ikari IS [[Super Robot Wars|Ring Mao]]. And they ''[[Talking to Himself|meet]]''. Repeatedly. With Ring piloting a machine that's called the "Berserker".
** This troper not only picked out Ogata as Masaya in ''[[Tokyo Mew Mew]]'', but also eagerly awaited Masaya to at some point be given the opportunity to go into full Engrish mode. The series did not disappoint.
** The only reason Toei's ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' anime is watchable is because hearing Yami Yugi talk like Sailor Uranus is [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|undoubtedly awesome]].
** Exception! Emeraude and [[Glass Mask|Maya Kitajima]], anyone?

* '''[[Sayaka Ohara]]'''
** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] shat bricks when she discovered that [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Beatrice]] was also [[Code Geass|Milly Ashford]] and [[Toradora!|Ryuuji's mom]].
*** She also voices [[×××HOLiC|Ichihara Yuuko]] opposite Watanuki, aka [[Code Geass|Lelouch]] [[Jun Fukuyama|Lamperouge]]. This explains quite a lot of things.

* '''[[Ikue Ohtani]]'''
** This troper's anime illiterate boyfriend was able to quickly recognize Chopper's voice from ''[[One Piece]]'' as that of [[Pokémon (anime)|Pikachu]].
** It's also kind of hard to listen to [[Gash Bell]] without thinking "Pika pika unu!"
** [[Ojamajo Doremi|Pororin Pyurarin Hanahana Pi!]] Amusingly, Hana-chan has a habit of donning [[Blush Sticker]]s when at her damn cutest.
** Let's not forget [[Detective Conan|Mitsuhiko]] of the Detective Boys!
*** I keep expecting all of these characters to break out in a spontaneous case of Ike Ike Go Go JUMP, when they're not being halfway purified by Eternal Sailor Moon...
** I'll raise you [[Animaniacs|Dot Warner]] for that!

* '''[[Ryotaro Okiayu]]'''
** He voices Kuchiki Byakuya in ''[[Bleach]]'' and Siegfried in ''[[The Sacred Blacksmith]]'' and it took only 3 lines for this troper to recognize him.
** Don't forget [[Heartcatch Pretty Cure|Ban-kun]] himself!
** Not to mention [[The Prince of Tennis|Tezuka Kunimitsu]] off ''[[The Prince of Tennis]]'', [[Slam Dunk|Mitsui Hisashi]] in ''[[Slam Dunk]]'' and Scar himself from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' just to name a few.

* '''Tony Oliver'''
** The narrator from ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' and {{spoiler|Old Simon}} is [[Fate/stay night|Lancer]].
** For video game dubbies, one might also recognize his [[Large Ham|hammy]] [[Dynasty Warriors|Ma Chao]] voice...as [[BlazBlue|Bang Shishigami]].
** Not to mention the titular character of ''[[Lupin III]]'' and Rick from ''Macross''

* '''Olivia Olson'''
** She plays both Vanessa Doofenshmirtz on ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' and Marceline the Vampire Queen on ''[[Adventure Time]]''. What's frightening is the similarities between both characters. They both have more than human powers (Vanessa has martial arts skills, Marceline's a vampire who can transform into an [[Eldritch Abomination]] / [[One-Winged Angel]]), daddy issues, a penchant for the goth culture and an incredible singing voice reserved for the best songs on both programs.

* '''J. Pat O'Malley'''
** J Pat O'Malley is all over the place in the Disney canon. He's [[The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad|Cyril Proudbottom]], [[Alice in Wonderland (Disney film)|Tweedledee, Tweedledum, The Walrus AND The Carpenter]], [[101 Dalmatians|Jasper]], [[The Jungle Book (Disney film)|Colonel Hathi]], and others. If you hear a Cockney accent in a Disney film, it's most likely O'Malley.

* '''Chiaki Omigawa'''
** [[Hidamari Sketch|Nazuna]] = [[Soul Eater|Maka Albarn]]. [[Beware the Nice Ones]] indeed.

* '''[[Daisuke Ono]]'''
** [[AIR|Yukito]] sounds a lot like [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Akasaka]] and [[Saki (manga)|Hagiyoshi]]. Make him sound a bit more lighthearted and you get [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Koizumi]]. Give his voice a little "perverted feel" and you get [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Battler]].
** Throw in some rage and you get [[Durarara!!|Shizuo Heiwajima]]
** Shigure Shinguji from [[Sora O Kakeru Shoujo]] which was only noticed by this troper after watching [[Black Butler]], where he voices Sebastian Michaelis

* '''Alan Oppenheimer''':
** Several ''[[Transformers]]''
** [[He-Man and the Masters of the Universe|Skeletor]]
** Darm and the opening narrator in ''[[Ys]] Book I and II''.
** Dr. Ivanovich in ''[[Soldier of Fortune]] II: Double Helix''.

* '''[[Lisa Ortiz]]''':
** You can easily tell that [[Slayers|Lina Inverse]] is Lisa Ortiz if you have heard her [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Amy Rose]] voice.
** Her first role was that of Deedlit in ''[[Record of Lodoss War]]''.
** And her [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Serenity Wheeler]] voice.
** And her [[One Piece|Tony Tony Chopper]] voice.
** And pretty darn EVERY voice she's ever done on ''Pokémon''.
*** Lisa Ortiz's Sabrina (''Abra And The Psychic Showdown'') is [[Playing Against Type|different]], however.
** She doesn't even make much effort to make [[Winx Club|Musa, Digit, and Mitzi]] sound different. {{spoiler|She does put in the effort for Icy, though.}}

* '''[[Colleen O'Shaughnessey]]'''
** [[Digimon Adventure|Sora]]! What are you doing in my ''[[Danny Phantom]]''?!
** Of course, after [[Digimon Adventure|Sora]] died, she was reincarnated as a [[Naruto|bratty blonde kunoichi]] who was then trapped as the[[Bleach|cutest widdle Arrancar]]
** And she was the voice of Genis in [[Tales of Symphonia]]... at least, in the first game.

* '''Otsuka Hochu'''
** He voices Jiraya in [[Naruto]], Metastacia in [[Bleach]] and [[The Sacred Blacksmith|August Arthur]] in ''[[The Sacred Blacksmith]]''. This troper thinks that these 3 voices are so alike that it's impossible to miss the link!
** What you might miss is that he is Xigbar and his hearted counterpart Braig in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'', well, you'll miss it if you turn off the sound anyway.
* He's also the voice of Gates, from [[Full Metal Panic!|Full Metal Panic: Second Raid]].
** And [[Captain Planet|Earth's greatest hero]].

* '''Gary Owens'''
** Gary Owens is the narrator of ''[[Space Quest]]'' 6. However, once you realise that he also provided the voice of one ''Roger Ramjet'', you'll never hear it the same way again.
** Not to mention the original (pre Coast to Coast) ''[[Space Ghost]]''.
** As well as Powdered Toast Man on ''[[The Ren and Stimpy Show]]''.
** He also played the announcer in ''[[Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In]]''. "And Morgul as the friendly Drelb!"

* '''Frank Oz'''
** Watch ''[[The Muppet Show]]'', and then watch ''[[The Empire Strikes Back]]''. Frank Oz voices Yoda in a very similar manner to the way he voices Fozzie Bear (and [[Sesame Street|Bert]]). Wakka Wakka Wakka!
** And Grover. Not so close to Miss Piggy, though.
** It is (perhaps appropriately) a bit of a shock when one realizes that Mr. Collins from the American embassy in ''[[An American Werewolf in London]]'' sounds exactly like Bert.
** Back on [[The Muppets]], Oz also plays Sam the Eagle and Animal.

* '''Jason Paige'''
** The guy who performed ''Walkie-Talkie Man'' and ''Canned Heat'' in ''[[Elite Beat Agents]]'' was '''the guy who sang the Pokémon theme'''. [[Lampshade Hanging|Yes, I know this may not be]] ''[[Lampshade Hanging|that]]'' [[Lampshade Hanging|shocking, but still!]]

* '''[[Hayden Panettiere]]'''
** There are those who know her not so much as [[Heroes (TV series)|an indestructible cheerleader]] or [[Remember the Titans|a pre-teen football freak]] than as [[Kingdom Hearts|Kairi]].
** She's also been [[Robot Chicken|Cheetara]].
** And [[Hoodwinked|Little Red Riding Hood]].
** And [[American Dad|one of Steve Smith's potential love interests]].
** And though some would say she's more of a fox, [[Alpha and Omega|a wolf]].
** And for [[Disney]] (okay, and [[Pixar]]) she's played [[A Bug's Life|a bug]], [[Dinosaur|a dinosaur]], and (in a case of [[Playing Against Type]] even by cartoon standards) [[Fillmore!|a Japanese girl]].

* '''[[Mike Patton]]'''
** There are many statements that Mike Patton, the same guy who voices the Infected in ''[[Left 4 Dead]]'',  {{spoiler|also voices the anger sphere in [[Portal (series)|Portal]].}}
** The Infected are actually victims of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7JofEjNxeI&feature=related The Darkness].
** He was also every monster in [[I Am Legend]], plus one of the Constructicons in ''[[Transformers (film)|Revenge Of The Fallen]]''
** He's the de facto voice of Mr. Bungle, [[Faith No More]], and Fantomas, among others.

* '''Robert Patrick'''
** If you hear [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|Piandao]], you'll probably be wondering why Sokka is taking swordsmanship lessons from [[Terminator|the T-1000]].
** Robert Patrick was also the voice of Race Bannon in the early seasons of ''[[The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest]]''.

* '''[[Rob Paulsen]]'''
** ''[[Planescape: Torment]]'' becomes somewhat more interesting when you learn that [[Animaniacs|Yakko Warner]] is your friendly neighborhood disembodied talking skull, Morte.
** Now I'll be expecting it to blurt out "[[Pinky and The Brain|NARF]]!" at some point.
** He's also [[Bubsy]] the Bobcat. Or ''was'', anyway, before that [[PS 1]] game that ''did'' [[Catch Phrase|possibly go wrong]].
** This troper is thinking [[Dexter's Laboratory|Major Glory]] once he hears [[Danny Phantom|Jack Fenton]] speaks.
** [[Jimmy Neutron|Carl Wheezer]], [[Goof Troop|PJ]], and [[Danny Phantom|the Box Ghost]] all have similar "fat guy falsettos" from this guy.
** He is also the voice of Grey Fox in the ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' remake, ''The Twin Snakes''.
** It's not surprising that he gets around, since he can [[Ben 10|duplicate]]. (Ditto ''was'' basically Yakko with [[Me's a Crowd]] powers)
** [[Lemony Narrator|The Trublador]] in ''[[Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers]]''.
** He also appears in several bit parts scattered along the ''[[Monkey Island]]'' franchise, most noticeably as Bob the Ghost Pirate in the Special Edition re-release of ''[[The Secret of Monkey Island]]''.

* '''[[Romi Paku]]'''
** Let's just say that [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Edward Elric]] = [[Bleach|Toshiro Hitsugaya]] = [[Yes! Pretty Cure 5|Shirou Amai]], okay?
*** And [[Digimon Adventure 02|Ken]].
*** And [[Axis Powers Hetalia|Switzerland]].
*** And [[Nana|Nana Oosaki]].
*** And [[Higepiyo]].
*** And [[Turn A Gundam|Loran]].
*** Not to mention [[Kaiba|Popo]] and [[Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok|Heimdall]].
*** More recently, Zoroark from ''[[Pokémon: Zoroark: Master of Illusions|Pokémon Zoroark Master of Illusions]]''. In Japanese AND English.
*** And also recently, [[Toriko|Komatsu]]
*** And [[Naruto|Temari]].
*** She shall soon dub [[Adventure Time|Finn the human]].

* '''Barry Pepper'''
** [[Modern Warfare|Cpl. Dunn]] must be [[Prototype (video game)|really hungry.]]

* '''[[Ron Perlman]]'''
** [[Fallout|War. War never changes.]]
** He also did a great job as the ultra-creepy/awesome Slade on ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]''. Every other voice he does sounds like a less creepy version of Slade.
** Which makes his role as [[Danny Phantom|Mr. Lancer]] so much more bizarre, considering Mr. Lancer is a well-meaning teacher.
** And ''[[Hellboy (film)|Hellboy]]''. And he was even in a brief scene in ''[[Looney Tunes: Back in Action]]'' as the VP of Never Learning (if you miss him, he's the guy who was eaten by the Tasmanian Devil)
** [[Mortal Kombat|Kurtis Stryker]] in the [[Animated Adaptation]] ''[[Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm|Mortal Kombat Defenders of the Realm]].''
** He's also Clayface and Orion in the [[DCAU]].
** Interesting that he got Clayface (possibly the ultimate "heavy makeup" role?) after becoming known as the REALLY heavy makeup Vincent, "the Beast" to Linda Hamilton's "Beauty".
** Mr. Perlman also provided the voice for Daimon Karnes, in the ''[[Wing Commander Academy]]'' episode "The Last One Left", as a former Confederation hero turned renegade.
** He would also like to know [[Halo|what the Master Chief is doing on that ship]] (finishing this fight, naturally).
** The current narrator of ''[[1000 Ways to Die]]''.

* '''France Perras'''
** Bulma in some older episodes of ''[[Dragonball Z]]''.
** Terra and Crevia in ''[[Ys|Ys: The Ark of Napishtim]]''.
** Carla in ''Barbie Presents: Thumbelina''.
** Sandra Roslin in ''[[Battlestar Galactica]]''.
** Various survivors/zombies in ''[[Dead Rising 2]]''.

* '''Ethan Phillips'''
** One of the colonists on [[Knights of the Old Republic|Dantooine]] is [[Star Trek: Voyager|Neelix]]. And [[The Scrappy|not a douche]].
** He also played some mercenary on Manaan in the first game. But he was a douche.

* '''David Hyde Pierce'''
** [[Frasier|Niles Crane]] as Abe Sapien in the first ''[[Hellboy (film)|Hellboy]]''. Doug Jones got to do his own voice in the second, though.
*** Because David Hyde Pierce was blown away by Doug Jones' physical performance, what with it being fucking incredible. Pierce refused to take credit for the VO work in the first movie and insisted Jones get full credit.

* '''[[Tara Platt]]'''
** Gives a wonderful performance as Mitsuru Kirijo and Elizabeth in ''Persona 3''.
** Hmmm... Where have I heard [[Eternal Sonata|Claves's]] voice before...
** Ugh, they changed Raine's voice actor for Dawn of the New World. Wait is that Tara Platt? Ok I'm fine with it now.
*** She also voices Raine in Radiant Mythology.

* '''Alexander Polinsky'''
** When Alexander Polinsky voices Headmaster in ''[[Transformers Animated]]'', it's hard not to think of [[Teen Titans (animation)|Control Freak]].

* '''Mike Pollock'''
** Had voiced Dr. Eggman in ''[[Sonic X]]'' wich lead him to voice him later in the games.
** Mayor Len in Samo from [[Kirby Right Back At Ya]].
** [[Viva Pinata|Lanston Lickatoad]] and [[Smeshariki|Big-O Riki]].

* '''Tony Pope'''
** Tony Pope, best known as [[Transformers Generation 1|Wreck-Gar]] and the voice of [[Small Annoying Creature|Furby]].

* '''[[Laura Prepon]]'''
** Wow, ''[[Halo 2]]'' rocks! Wait, why is [[That '70s Show|Donna]] telling me to move my ass?! She also showed up on an episode of ''[[King of the Hill]]''.

* '''[[Jamieson Price]]'''
** [[Gurren Lagann|Lord Genome]] sounds so much like [[Code Geass|Diethard Ried]] it's ''scary''. He also sounds like [[Eureka Seven|Norb]], which is just slightly less weird.
** He also played Reeve Trusti who helps the player party in ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' , as well as playing a prominent role in it's video game sequel ''[[Dirge of Cerberus]]''. Among other roles, he was a [[Ace Combat|Belkan Ace Pilot]], a [[Bobobo-Bo Bo-bobo|Jelly Man]], the First Hokage in ''Naruto'' and the leader of [[Rainbow Six|a counterterrorism special forces group]].
** Papa [[Nie R]] must have a [[BlazBlue|GIGANTIC TAGER]].
** [[Dynasty Warriors|"Can't anyone provide me with a decent challenge!?"]]
** This troper will never forget watching [[Akira]] after a [[BlazBlue]] marathon only to hear Iron Tager barking out orders in the form of the Colonel.

* '''[[Derek Stephen Prince]]'''
** In ''[[Bleach]]'', Uryu Ishida is voiced by Derek Stephen Prince who is sounds like [[Naruto|Sasuke Uchiha]]. It doesn't help that Uryu looks like a cross between the two.
** For this troper, Uryu's dub voice actor's best known as Shino in ''[[Naruto]]''.
** You can tell [[Gurren Lagann|Attenborough]] is voiced by the same guy as [[Bleach|Uryu Ishida]], which is pretty weird even though he does a pretty good job, since Uryu's pretty much [[The Stoic]] while Attenborough is moderately [[Ax Crazy]] (though his laugh sounds like a less evil [[Digimon Adventure 02|Ken Ichijoji]]).
** This troper wishes she could unhear [[Digimon Adventure 02|Ken Ichijoji]] as [[Kingdom Hearts|Vexen]]... once she heard his voice, she wanted to cry.
** Hey, at least you don't hear him as ''[[Persona 3|Takaya]]''. * shudder* (He sounds like Vexen, only a lot creepier.)
** Speaking of ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'', Derek also voiced Veemon there. Another example of [[Talking to Himself]].

* '''Greg Proops'''
** While we're on the topic of ''[[Star Wars]]'', the podrace from ''[[The Phantom Menace]]'' is announced by [[Whose Line Is It Anyway?|Greg Proops]].
** And he uses the same exact voice for one of the commentators in [[MadWorld]].

* '''Moira Quirk'''
** Remember ''[[Nickelodeon Guts]]''? The referee, Moira "Mo" Quirk, has an interesting amount of voices she did. She was Brit Krust, one of the two Krust Cousins, in ''[[My Life as a Teenage Robot]]''.
** Also, she [[Playing Against Type|played against her heroic/anti-heroic(ish) type]] when she voiced [[Ax Crazy]] [[Meido]] Daniella in ''[[Haunting Ground]]''. If you're hearing your childhood screaming in horror, that's why.

* '''John Ratzenberger'''
** [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in the movie ''[[Cars]]'', where one of the characters, played by John Ratzenberger (Cliff Clavin on ''Cheers''), is watching a bunch of movies and complains that the same guy is doing all the voices, and it's because he's the one who did those characters in those movies. (P.T. Flea in ''[[A Bug's Life|A Bugs Life]]'', Ham from ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]'', and the Abominable Snowman from ''[[Monsters, Inc.]].'')
** He's [[The Incredibles|the Underminer]]! NOTHING is beneath him!
** It's become rather a [[Running Gag]] at [[Pixar]] for Ratzenberger to be a voice in all their films. He's their "good luck charm". Because it's ''Pixar'', the joke [[Overly Long Gag|never gets old]].
** ''Cars'' also had cameos by NPR mechanic talk show hosts Tom and Ray Magliozzi as Rusty and Dusty Rust-Eze, even using catch phrases from their show.
** When John Lasseter produced the English adaptation of ''[[Spirited Away]]'', he gave John Ratzenberger a role in ''that'' too.

* '''[[Thurl Ravenscroft]]'''
** Best known as the voice of ''Frosted Flakes'' mascot Tony the Tiger, he has also done Kirby in ''[[The Brave Little Toaster]]'', sang "[[How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (animation)|You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch]]", and several rides at [[Disney Theme Parks]], including ''[[The Haunted Mansion]]''.
** He was also a member of Disney's stock vocal team the Mellomen, so you'll often hear his voice in vintage Disney animated features and shorts, especially when a good bass-baritone voice is required.

* '''Paul Reubens'''
** Paul Reubens, best known as ''Pee-Wee Herman'', usually does the distinct laugh when doing other characters. This includes ''[[Flight of the Navigator]]'' and REX in the [[Star Wars|Star Tours]] ride at [[Disney Theme Parks]].
** Anyone who's seen the pilot movie for ''[[Out of Jimmy's Head]]'' might recognize [[The Nightmare Before Christmas|Lock]] as Golly Gopher.
** Also Reuben in [[Chowder]].

* '''John Rhys-Davies'''
** John Rhys-Davies, mentioned below and known for playing a [[The Lord of the Rings|dwarf and a talking tree]], also voiced the narration in the adventure/rpg hybrid ''[[Quest for Glory]] 4''. Anyone who's played this game has probably had his "[[Adventure Narrator Syndrome|That didn't do anything!]]" ingrained in their memories after frustratingly clicking on every inch of screen.
** The best part is the annoyed tone he uses, like the narrator is pissed at you doing things that lead nowhere.
*** This just shows that John Rhys Davies would be an AWESOME [[Game Master]] for any [[Tabletop RPG]]
** Mr. Davies also provided the voice of Prince Thrakhath nar Kiranka, in ''[[Wing Commander (video game)|Wing Commander III]]''.
*** Which happened to be a double shot as he was also live-acting the role of James "Paladin" Taggart at the same time.
** His voice was also a pleasant surprise in ''Freelancer'' as Tobias, who, of course, is the closest thing Freelancer's got to a [[Boisterous Bruiser]].
** John Rhys-Davies of ''[[Indiana Jones]]'' and ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]'' fame plays Hades in a couple episodes of ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]''.
** He was also [[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]'s dad Cassim in the third movie.
** And Macbeth in ''[[Gargoyles]]''.
** And Ma-ma-ma-mamama, ma-ma-ma-mamama, ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants|MANRAY]]!''
** [[Sliders|Professor Arturo's]] not ''that'' short!
** Watch him play a russian with a british accent in ''[[The Living Daylights]]''.

* '''[[Monica Rial]]'''
** Compare Monica Rial as [[Tsukuyomi Moon Phase|vampire pseudo-catgirl Hazuki]] to Monica Rial as [[Ouran High School Host Club|dating sim fangirl Renge]]....or [[Excel Saga (anime)|Hyatt]] to [[Ghost Stories|Momoko]] to [[Kiddy Grade|Lumiere]] to [[Mahou Sensei Negima|Konoka Konoe]]. You're welcome.
** [[Excel Saga (anime)|Hyatt]] sounds a lot like [[Azumanga Daioh|Nyamo]] if she was [[Ill Girl|very,]] ''[[Ill Girl|very]]'' [[Ill Girl|sick.]]
*** How about even [[Ill Girl|MORE]] of an [[Ill Girl]], as [[AIR|Misuzu Kamio]].
**** And Sakura from ''[[Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]]''. who is also a somewhat ''[[Ill Girl]]''.
***** One more [[Ill Girl]] for you, Angelica from ''[[Gunslinger Girl]]''.
** Asa Shigure from Shuffle! sounds almost exactly like Konoka Konoe from ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]''. Right down to the mischeviousness...
*** Ironic since she is also Kazumi and Satsuki ALSO from ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]''.
** She is also Fiore in ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'', this troper did not recognize her at all, especially since her first work he heard was Towa from ''[[D.N.Angel]]''.
*** Another one out of character for her is Lara in ''[[School Rumble]]''.
** She has another niche as the "Shy, cute, but funny girl" such as her role in ''[[Pani Poni Dash!]]'' and ''[[Rumbling Hearts]]''.
** She does a pretty funny cockney accent as the maid from ''[[Black Butler]]''

* '''[[Kevin Michael Richardson]]'''
** So [[Knights of the Old Republic|Jolee Bindo]] is a [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|captive Earthbender]], huh?
** In the [[Grand Finale]] of ''Avatar: The Last Airbender'', you can easily tell that {{spoiler|the Lion Turtle}} is Kevin Michael Richardson, using a similar voice as he did in ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' for {{spoiler|Omega Supreme}}. However, his voice for Tyro (Haru's dad), while not quite as similar, is still noticeable.
** ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' season 4 leads to an interesting revelation: The voice, the glowing eyes, the [[Omnicidal Maniac]]... Sarevok's back! Doing well for himself, isn't he?
** This troper just returned from the ''[[Transformers (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' midnight premiere held in his area, and immediately recognized Kevin Micheal Richardson's voice coming from {{spoiler|the only one of the Primes that spoke before they brought Sam back to life}}.
** He also played Lucius Fox in the ''Gotham Knights'' tie-in. And couple other guys too.
** And he also played [[Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!|Antauri]].
** Also does a mean Keith David impression; a lot of viewers thought it was David doing Despero again on ''[[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]''.
** And plays [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] Chairman Drek (eventually Ultimate Supreme Executive Chairman Drek) in [[Ratchet and Clank|the first Ratchet and Clank game]].
** He even ''[[The Other Darrin|replaced]]'' Keith David (after the first episode) as [[The Spectacular Spider-Man|Tombstone]].
** And a Bill Cosby one as well. Compare [[Codename: Kids Next Door|Dr. Lincoln]] and [[Family Guy|the]] [[The Boondocks|man]] himself.
** Replaces Cedric the Entertainer as Maurice on ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''. Also does recurring secondary character voices.
** Speaking of all the roles he's done for Batman, is everyone intentionally ignoring the fact that [[The Batman]] cast him as [[The Joker|the goddamned JOKER]]? Come on, crowning achievement right there.

* '''[[Alan Rickman]]'''
** Speaking of ''[[King of the Hill]]'', this troper kept expecting King Philip (from the episode "Joust Like A Woman") to address Hank as "[[Harry Potter (film)|Mister Potter]]".
** No mention of [[Help! I'm a Fish|Joe]]? This troper remembers the ads for the movie kept referring to both Alan Rickman and Terry Jones.
** There's an icon floating around [[LiveJournal]] involving [[The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy (film)|Marvin the Paranoid Android]] dressed as [[Harry Potter (film)|Snape]].
** Don't forget Alexander aka Dr. Lazarus in ''[[Galaxy Quest]]''.
** And this troper could never take the movie version of ''[[Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (film)|Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street]]'' seriously, since not only did Rickman use the same voice for Judge Turpin that he did for Snape, but Timothy Spall played opposite him as Beadle Bamford, who is basically Turpin's [[Harry Potter|Wormtail]]. [[Helena Bonham Carter]] didn't help things either.

* '''Don Rickles'''
** If you visit ''The Enchanted Tiki Room: Under New Management'' at [[Disney Theme Parks|Disney World]], you'll be able to hear [[Toy Story (franchise)||Mr. Potato Head]] get into a fight with [[The Simpsons (animation)|Troy McClure]]

* '''[[Sam Riegel]]'''
** One wonders if [[Naruto|Shino Aburame]] has named any of the bugs inside him [[Digimon|Wormmon]].
** Oh, dear heavens, this happens a ''lot'' with ''[[Naruto]]''. While watching, one will wonder if Izumo will bust out his [[Rurouni Kenshin|Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu]], Genma will use [[Bleach|Zangetsu]], or if Homura will start hassling someone for [[Cowboy Bebop|always losing the bounty]].
** He was also [[Code Geass|Clovis]]. And he sounded fairly obvious in ''that'' role, too.
** He generally has two voices: smug bastard (Zaku, Clovis), and largely normal guy ([[Haruhi Suzumiya|Taniguchi]], [[Fate/stay night|Shiro Emiya]], [[Lucky Star|Minoru Shiraishi]]). With Viral, he's usually the first, and sometimes the second.
** Besides the technically-inclined Shirou, he was the technically-inclined Ninja Turtle [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003|Donatello]] ('03 version).
*** When I heard [[Tales of Eternia|Reid Hershel's]] voice, I thought he would say [[Ace Combat|'''Go dance with the angels''']].
** Sam plays Pull in the ''[[Ergo Proxy]]'' episode "The Girl with a Smile". He sounds like a pitched-up Donatello.
** About the only thing [[God Hand|Azel]] is missing is the [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|shark teeth]], but in terms of voice the two are practically indistinguishable.
*** I'm surprised the developers didn't give [[Transformers: War for Cybertron|Star]][[The Starscream|scream]] teeth.
** And here, I was thinking, "Hey! It's [[Eternal Sonata|Allegretto]]!"
** The first role that got this troper interested in him was [[Ax Crazy|the]] [[Laughing Mad|demented]] Pandora from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]''
** [[Phoenix Wright]] in [[Marvel vs. Capcom 3]] sounds like Minoru and, by extension, Taniguchi.

* '''Shane Rimmer'''
** [[Tropers/Ptitlevos 5 dvs 8|I]] always smile whenever I hear Shane Rimmer's voice on TV, film, Internet, or wherever, mainly because I have always had this big crush on Scott Tracy from [[Thunderbirds]], whose voice is provided by Shane, and he never puts too much variation on that voice of his. ([http://www.plotfish.com/tic/library/_shanerimmer/ShaneWagonTrain.wma Except when he sings of course...]{{Dead link}})

* '''[[Susan Roman]]'''
** This troper was horrified when she first started playing ''[[Mega Man Legends]] 2'', only to hear [[Sailor Moon|Sailor Jupiter]].

* '''Christy Carlson Romano'''
** Yuffie from ''[[Advent Children]]'' and the original ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' sounds like ''[[Kim Possible]]''.
** She can do anything, even say [[Avenue Q|"f*ck, it sucks to be me"]].

* '''Freddy Rodriguez'''
** Who woulda thought that [[Six Feet Under|Rico]] [[Gratuitous Spanish|y]] [[Grindhouse|El Wray]] voiced both [[Teen Titans (animation)|Más Y Menos]]?

* '''[[Michelle Rodriguez]]'''
** The "tough" female [[Redshirt Army|Redshirt Marines]] in ''[[Halo 2]]''.
** Calita in ''Driv3r''.
** [[Humongous Mecha]] pilot Liz in [[IGPX]].

* '''Michael Rosenbaum'''
** In an episode of ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]'' where [[The Flash]] and [[Lex Luthor]] switched brains. Unlike most animation, this did not [[Voices Are Mental|involve the characters switching voices]]. This gave Micheal Rosenbaum a chance [[Actor Allusion|to use his]] ''[[Smallville]]'' [[Shout-Out|Lex Luthor voice]].
*** Think it was jarring hearing Flash's voice as Lex Luthor? Try the episode of ''[[Smallville]]'' where  {{spoiler|the spirit of General Zod possess Lex. Worse thing than hearing Flash's voice as Lex? Hearing the Flash say "[[Kneel Before Zod]]".}}
** And Clancy Brown was a riot as Flash-stuck-in-Luthor: "Aren't you going to wash your hands?" "No, because I'm EVIL!"

* '''[[Michelle Ruff]]'''
** Michelle Ruff, best known as [[Code Geass|Euphemia Li Britannia]], [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Yoko]], [[Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team|Kiki]], [[Disgaea|Etna]], [[Lucky Star|Tsukasa]], [[Lucky Star|Minami]], [[Digimon Frontier|Izumi]], [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Yuki Nagato]], and [[Bleach|Rukia]].
** Hey! [[Disgaea|Etna]] sounds a lot like [[Persona 3 Yukari|Takeba]]!
** Whoa, [[Ai Yori Aoshi|Aoi Sakuraba]] is the [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] [[Wild ARMs|Laila Lie/Gina Angel/Goddess]]? The latter's "sad" voice sounds a lot like the former.
*** Ruff shares another series with an ''[[Ai Yori Aoshi]]'' voice actor. Dave Lelyveld (Whittenburg) played Kaoru Hanabishi and plays Commander Irving Vold Valeria on ''[[Wild ARMs]] Twilight Venom''.
** Interestingly, she's also the mercenary Carmen 99 in ''[[Gun X Sword]]''. You can't say it's [[Playing Against Type]], since Michelle's characters vary so much.
** Cream the Rabbit from ''[[Sonic Riders|Sonic Free Riders]]'' and ''[[Sonic Generations]]'' sounds like Tsukasa.
** Have we all forgotten ''[[Lupin III]]'''s main squeeze and [[Unknown Rival|unknown]] [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder|betrayer]] Fujiko Mine?
** It's not really fair to list Michelle (I doubt a self respecting VA would want to be listed on this page) because she's actually one of the few very versatile VAs. She can do quite a large range of voices and emotions, including young boys which is a sign of a wide vocal range. Visit her [https://web.archive.org/web/20160305222043/http://voiceofmichelleruff.com/resume.html website] for a good audio sample.
