Line 42:
 
* '''[[Unshou Ishizuka]]'''
** [[Asura's Wrath|Augus]] is a member of the [[Tekken|Mishima family]], the Narrator of {{Pokemon}}[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]] as well as Alder, and [[Naruto|Zabuza Momochi]].
 
* '''[[Miki Ito]]'''
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 ''[[Re BootReBoot]]''{{'}}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]]''.
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 Reimagined(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]].
 
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 226:
 
* '''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'''
** When I first heard [[ToA AruCertain Kagaku noScientific 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!
 
Line 253:
 
* '''[[Rie Kugimiya]]'''
** Obviously, there exists [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]], [[ZeroThe noFamiliar Tsukaimaof 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 (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]].
** {{smallcapssmall-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!}}
 
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.
** [[Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi 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]].
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 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 [[Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi 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?
 
Line 519:
 
* '''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|Alvinandthe 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.
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 [[Tropers/User:Ziggy Stardust Forever|this troper]] shall forever remember her as Hexadecimal from ''[[Re BootReBoot]]''.
** Same, here. Anytime this troper watches any of her other roles, all she can think is, "AHHHHHH, HEXADECIMAL!!!".
 
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 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 [[xxxHolic×××HOLiC|Ichihara Yuuko]] opposite Watanuki, aka [[Code Geass|Lelouch]] [[Jun Fukuyama|Lamperouge]]. This explains quite a lot of things.
 
* '''[[Ikue Ohtani]]'''
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 [[Nie RNieR]] 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.
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 1,125:
** 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 [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20160305222043/http://voiceofmichelleruff.com/resume.html website] for a good audio sample.
