Line 8:
* '''[[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 [[
*** [[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
*** [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]]
Line 42:
* '''[[Unshou Ishizuka]]'''
** [[Asura's Wrath|Augus]] is a member of the [[Tekken|Mishima family]], the Narrator of
* '''[[Miki Ito]]'''
Line 56:
* '''[[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.
Line 79:
* '''[[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 ''[[
*** [[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]]''.
Line 110:
*** 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 (animation)|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
** He also was [[Bionicle|Toa Vakama]] and [[Beast Machines|Nightscream]]. And as a kid, [[Captain N|Kid Icarus]].
Line 134:
* '''[[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 [[Wolverine and the X-Men|MAG-FREAKING NETO!]].
** Don't forget [[Powerpuff Girls|Professor Utonium]].
Line 156:
* '''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]]?!
Line 177:
* '''Michael Keaton'''
** ''[[Batman]]'' voicing the rival car in ''[[Cars]]'' and Ken in ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]] 3''.
* '''Brandon Keener'''
Line 226:
* '''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'''
** When I first heard [[
** Ever heard [[Assassin's Creed|Altair]] speak in Japanese? Hell YES he's voiced by Kamina in the dub!
Line 246:
** Just from [[Gundam]]:
*** [[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing|Zechs Merquise]]
*** [[Turn A Gundam
*** [[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Mu La Flaga]]
** [[Overman King Gainer|Asuham Boone]]
Line 253:
* '''[[Rie Kugimiya]]'''
** Obviously, there exists [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]], [[
** Though there are a few boy roles in the mix of [[tsundere]]s, like [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Alphonse Elric]] and [[Digimon Savers|Ikuto Noguchi]].
** And [[Gintama|Kagura]], aru.
** [[Rosario + Vampire|Mizore]] is [[Stalker with a Crush|stalking]] this article right now...
Line 319:
** 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 [[The Lord of the Rings|Mordor]].
** {{
** And in [[Tim Burton]]'s ''[[Alice in Wonderland (film)|Alice in Wonderland]]'', he gives an appropriately sinister voice to {{spoiler|the Jabberwock!}}
Line 330:
** [[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.
** [[
** 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]].
Line 342:
** 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
** And she's teamed up with [[Outlaw Star|Jim Hawking]].
** [[Retroactive Recognition]]: [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|Scorpina]] sometimes sounded a bit like Haruhi.
Line 407:
** [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!]]
Line 439:
* '''[[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
** 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]].''
Line 500:
* '''James McCaffrey'''
** [[Max Payne (series)|Max Payne]] and [[Alone in
* '''[[Michael McConnohie]]'''
Line 507:
** 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 [[
** Wait, [[Vampire Hunter D]] and the narrator from [[Dynasty Warriors|Dynasty Warriors 6]] and [[Warriors Orochi]] are the same guy?
Line 515:
* '''[[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
** 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
* '''[http://jessicaerinmartin.com/ Jessica Martin]'''
** The voice of Samus Aran in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]'' is also a prominent actress in the Seattle theatre scene.
Line 536:
** ''[[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
** 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...''[[
* '''Ellen McLain'''
Line 580:
*** 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
** He plays Egon Stetmann in ''[[
** 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.
Line 587:
* '''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
** 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!
Line 597:
* '''[[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 (manga)|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.
Line 609:
** ''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 (manga)|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."
Line 623:
*** 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 (manga)|Roy Mustang]]
* '''[[Lara Jill Miller]]'''
Line 632:
* '''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 [[
** 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 [[
** [[Dissidia Final Fantasy|Shantotto. OHOHOHOHO!!!]]
Line 665:
** 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 (manga)|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!!]]''.
Line 692:
* '''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.
Line 734:
* '''[[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 [[
* '''Ryusei Nakao'''
Line 763:
** 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
** 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]]
Line 769:
* '''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.
Line 782:
* '''[[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...
Line 802:
** 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 [[
** 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''.
Line 823:
* '''[[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 [[
* '''[[Ikue Ohtani]]'''
Line 840:
* '''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 [[
** Not to mention the titular character of ''[[Lupin III]]'' and Rick from ''Macross''
Line 904:
** 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]]'''
Line 933:
*** And [[Nana|Nana Oosaki]].
*** And [[Higepiyo]].
*** And [[Turn A Gundam
*** 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.
Line 993:
** [[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 [[
** [[Dynasty Warriors|"Can't anyone provide me with a decent challenge!?"]]
** This troper will never forget watching [[Akira]] after a [[
* '''[[Derek Stephen Prince]]'''
Line 1,014:
* '''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]].
Line 1,030:
* '''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 "[[
** 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
*** 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]].
Line 1,073:
** 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 [[
** 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]]'''
Line 1,095:
* '''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]]'''
Line 1,120:
** 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
*** 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
** 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 [
