Hey, It's That Voice!/S to Z: Difference between revisions

** Easy enough to believe he did ''[[ShinCrayon ChanShin-chan]]'''s narrator (which sounded a bit like [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Major Armstrong]] in episode 3), but then there's Yanro...

** And then [[Final Fantasy I (Video Game)|Garland]] in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|Dissidia Final Fantasy]]''. Sounds like a more civilized Piccolo, but only a [[Chaotic Evil|leetle bit]] more civilized.

** He's Ayame Sohma in ''[[Fruits Basket]]'', and you can hear it when he goes low. Other than that, it's NOT his usual role!

** Kuwabara from ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'', with the most distinctive voice ever...but also the ridiculously sexily-voiced Raizen, from the same anime. This troper (who hadn't seen DBZ at the time) nearly died when she heard the connections!

** [[Married... Withwith Children|Peg Bundy]] has provided the voices for [[Futurama|Leela]] and Spinelli's Mom on ''[[Recess]]'', among others.

* '''[[Chiwa Saito]]'''

** This happens with Chiwa Saito in ''[[Samurai Seven7]]'' with Komachi and in ''[[Pani Poni Dash!]]'' with Rebecca Miyamoto.

** Daisuke Sakaguchi, who also played [[Baccano (Light Novel)!|Jacuzzi Splot]] and [[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam (Anime)|Usso Ewin]].

** He also does the voice of Shinpachi Shimura in ''[[Gintama (Manga)|Gintama]]'' and even LOOKS LIKE HIM.

* '''[[Takahiro Sakurai]]'''

** Heine Rammsteiner from the ''[[DOGS Bullets and Carnage]]'' OVA. Cloud Strife from ''[[Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (Anime)|Final Fantasy VII Advent Children]]''. Let's see -- bothsee—both are light-haired [[Badass Abnormal]] anti-social and psychologically damaged [[Super Soldier|Super Soldiers]]s with [[Dark and Troubled Past|Dark and Troubled Pasts]]s who wear sleeveless dark longcoats. Hmmm....

** [[Tropers/Phoenix Fire|This troper]]'s brain kind of broke when she finally realized why [[Mononoke|the Medicine Seller]] sounded so familiar: He was ''[[D .Gray Man-man|Kanda]]''. Much-calmer-than-usual Kanda, but she was still struck by the resemblance.

** [[Cloudy Withwith a Chance of Meatballs|Baby Brent]] [[Space Chimps|dosn't want to sing a long]].

** Nozomu Sasaki. His best known roles? [[Cardcaptor Sakura (Manga)|Eriol Hiiragizawa]], [[Monster (Animemanga)|Johan Liebert]], and '''[[Yu Yu Hakusho|YUSUKE URAMESHI!]]''' [[Tropers/Diclonius Lilium|This troper]]'s overactive imagination will render ''[[Monster (Animemanga)|Monster]]'' and ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]''... difficult for a while.

** And don't forget he was also the voice of [[Death Note (Manga)|Mello]]! How's that for mind-screwy?

** Fans will be pleased to note that there is ''one'' similarity between [[Axis Powers Hetalia (Manga)|Austria-san]] and [[The Legend of Zelda|Link]], [[Twilight Princess|the Hero of Twilight]]; they both share the ''same seiyuu'', the one and only Akira Sasanuma.

** In the English dub of ''[[Witchblade (Animeanime)|Witchblade]]'', Rihoko is [[A Little Snow Fairy Sugar|Sugar]]! [[Catch Phrase|Waffo]]!!!

** OHHH YEAHH former [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] and [[WCW]] champion and Slim Jim spokesman. He's played Sasquatch in ''[[The Xs]]'', Space Ghost's granddad in ''[[Space Ghost Coast to Coast]]'', Master Sergeant Emily Dickinson Jones in ''[[Duck Dodgers]]'', Rasslor in ''[[DextersDexter's Laboratory|Dial M For Monkey]]'', and Bonesaw the wrestler in the first [[Spider -Man]] film.

** This troper freaked out when he realized his favorite [[Ar Tonelicotonelico|Reyvateil]] had the same distinct [[Tsundere]] voice as [[Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun|Houjo Reika]] {{spoiler|and the characters even have the same name}}. Also, quite notable are [[Rozen Maiden|Shinku]] (who is also very [[Tsundere]]) as well as [[Odin Sphere|Velvet]], who has the same voice, but much less Tsun.

** If this troper remembers correctly, she also voiced [[Shugo Chara|X-Chara Diamond]]. The normal Diamond, on the other hand, was voiced by Kanae Ito, the same voice actress as Amu-- OhAmu—Oh great, [[Talking to Himself]] again?!

** How could this troper forget Cammy from ''[[Street Fighter IV (Video Game)|Street Fighter IV]]''?! Also, after hearing Carl's Japanese voice in ''[[Blaz BlueBlazBlue]]'', you could definitely hear Sawashiro Miyuki in his voice, despite the character being a [[Cute Shotaro Boy]].

** It was ''very'' difficult for [[Tropers/Feral Phoenix|This Troper]] not to laugh when she heard [[Yggdra Union|Milanor's]] voice coming out of [[Bakemonogatari (Light Novel)|Kanbaru Suruga's]] mouth. They have the exact same pitch and occasionally the same speech patterns. One is an idiot thief. The other is a card-carrying yandere lesbian/BL fangirl/lolicon/possible troll.

** And a total [http://memory-alpha.org/en/index.php/Michael_Jonas weaselly bastard] on ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]].''

** AND a certain archaeologist the [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Gaang]] runs into in the Earth Kingdom.

** This troper referred to the character as "Carth" while playing [[Mass Effect]] because she couldn't remember the character's name but knew she [[Hey, It's That Voice!|recognized that voice]].

** This troper did a double-take when he saw a network-run reality show where an actor would pretend to be racist against an actress to see people's reactions. Playing the part of "racist Dunkin' Donuts (<small>[[TradesnarkTradesnark™|TM]]</small>) counter man" was none other than Carth Onasi.

** It's really bad when Shep's Biote and the Ebon Hawk pilot are the sanest things the dude seems to have played. This Troper was doing her homework and not paying attention to the tube. Queue the episode of ''[[Journeyman]]'' where he's playing a deranged and probably developmentally disabled mass murderer. The instant "I'll blow your head off" came out of the guy's mouth, there went my homework. Likewise, just TRY watching the ''[[Cold Case (TV)|Cold Case]]'' episode "Thrill Kill" {{spoiler|where he's also playing someone clearly deranged}} without a few inappropriate snickers.

** This troper couldn't place who voiced Lucario in ''[[Pokémon Lucario and The Mystery of Mew (Anime)|Pokémon: Lucario and The Mystery of Mew]]'' until near the end when he lends his aura to Mew, where his yell sounds vaguely familiar..."Holy crap, it's [[Dragonball Z|GOKU]]!"

** Watching [[Ben 10 (Animation)|Dr. Animo]]'s first scene, your contributor was partially expecting him to mention [[Chowder|a recipe for some really weird food]].

** For those in the 80s, he's also [[The A-Team (TV)|Howling Mad Murdock]]!

** Thrasher on the 80's ''[[G.I. Joe]]'', but best known as the voice of Peter Parker/[[Spider-Man]] in his own solo, hardly-seen syndie show, the pre-cursor to [[Spider -Man and His Amazing Friends]]. On an episode of ''[[Alice]]'', Mel, dressed in a hero costume for a party, accidentally thwarts a bank robber played by Schwartz. You didn't even have to guess.

** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] half expected [[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Gilgamesh]] to start advertising some [[Lucky Star|Comiket/anime goods]] to Shirou.

** When watching ''[[Harukanaru Toki no Naka Dede]]'', this troper could have sworn that the scene of [[Shinichiro Miki|Yorihisa]] teaching [[Tomokazu Seki|Tenma]] how to use a sword had the audio ripped straight from ''[[Vision of Escaflowne|Escaflowne]]''.

* '''[[Patrick Seitz]]'''

** ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron]]'': guest-starring Silverbolt [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|The Bloodedge]].

** Watching ''[[Adventure Time (Animation)|Adventure Time]]'' after playing [[First Encounter Assault Recon|FEAR3]] can be a little eerie, due to the fact that the voice actor for Finn also played the child version of [[Creepy Child|Paxton]] [[I Am a Humanitarian|Fettel]].

** The fact that she voices [[Devil May Cry|Kyrie]] is also amusing, since it means her love interest is Ichigo.

** Oddly enough, on my first viewing of [[Haruhi Suzumiya]], this led to an inversion of the trope. I heard Mikuru speak and went "Holy crap, it's [[Lucky Star|Tsukasa!]] Just a bit more timid." While [[Michelle Ruff|Tsukasa's VA]] ''is'' in ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya]]'', she voices ''[[The Stoic|Y]][[The Spock|u]][[The Smart Guy|k]][[Badass Bookworm|i]].'' [[Stephanie Sheh]] actually has a major part in ''[[Lucky Star]]'' - as [[Kawaiiko|Akira]] [[Hates the Job, Loves Thethe Limelight|Kogami]] (!). (Who, come to think of it, sounds like Mikuru being really, ''really'' cutesy. But only when being kawaii. Her [[Grumpy Bear]] personality sounds nothing like her.)

** Even though she is credited differently there is no doubt she is [[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Illyasviel]].

** [[Inuyasha|Sango's]] also [[X-Men: Evolution|Wanda Maximoff]]. And [[Richard Ian Cox|Inuyasha]] is her brother, Pietro. [[Kirby Morrow|Miroku?]] He's Cyclops. [[Moneca Stori|Kagome]] is Nightcrawler's girlfriend, Amanda Sefton. [[David Kaye|Sesshomaru]] is even Professor X. Both shows were so much more fun after realizing this.

** Subverted in ''[[BioBioShock Shock(series)]]'': Until looking it up on [[IMDb]], this troper had absolutely no clue that Andrew Ryan was, in fact, [[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|Quark]].

** On Kaori Shimizu, when this troper watches ''[[Shinkon Gattai Godannar]]'', she plays as the Loli Lou Roux, which obviously had her using her loli-ish voice (as shown in ''[[Serial Experiments Lain]]''). Except when she starts her battle [[Kiai]]... whereas this troper suddenly get vibes that either Signum or Lamia possessed her and gives her some hot blood elements (of course, at that time, [[The Hero]] Goh was also doing his own [[Kiai]], so it might not sound so obvious). Then again, that seiyuu also has [[Lucky Star|Hiyori Tamura]] in her resume, and she sounded NOTHING like any of these mentioned roles.

** Hiro Shimono who does voices for guys with scarves (ie. [[Phantom Brave|Ash]] and [[Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice|Almaz]]) as well as [[Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories|Cute Shotaro Boys with horns]]. Kinda funny that he shares his recent video games voices ([[Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice|Almaz]] and [[Tales of Symphonia (Video Game)|Emil]]) with a certain former [[Johnny Yong Bosch|Black Ranger]].

** When one plays the ''[[Clannad (Visualvisual Novelnovel)|Clannad]]'' [[Visual Novel]], it might be shocking to discover that Kappei is having a hard time performing menial tasks, knowing that he shares the same seiyuu with [[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate Ayasaki]].

** Apparently, Hayate can play [[Saki (Mangamanga)|mahjong]] too.

** Marc Silk has also done voices in ''[[Battalion Wars]]'' and ''[[Medi EvilMediEvil 2 (Video Game)|Medi Evil 2]]''.

** He voiced Johan Liebert in the English dub of ''[[Monster (Mangamanga)|Monster]]''.

** Tenzin in ''[[The Legend of Korra (Animation)|The Legend of Korra]]'' leads a strong female protagonist through some challenging test courses. [[Portal 2 (Video Game)|One could say he has some experience with that...]]

** For maximum WTF value watch a clip of the (short-lived) dub of ''[[Gao Gai GarGaoGaiGar]]'' and you'll probably wonder if Guy will ever spontaneously shout [[The Venture Brothers|Go Team Venture!]]".

** When Jei in episode 9 of ''[[Burst Angel]]'' talks about breaking the [[Screw Destiny|shackles of tradition and obligation]], [[Gamer From Jump|I]] said, "Hey, he sounds like an evil [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003 (Animation)|Leonardo]]!"

** And ''Nnoitra''. It's now gone from "hard" to "impossible".

** [[Doctor Who (TV)|The Daleks]] appear to have taken on the clever guise of [[Rainbow (TV series)|two innocent puppets...]]

** [[Kim Possible]]'s mom. [[Twenty Four24|Martha Logan]].

** A [[Running Gag]] in the TV sitcom ''[[Herman's Head]]'' involved office worker Louise (played by Yeardley Smith) being told by someone she was talking to on the phone that she sounded exactly like "that [[The Simpsons (animation)|Lisa Simpson]] character".

** When you hear Dana Snyder as [[Chowder|Gazpacho]], [[The Venture Brothers (Animation)|The Alchemist]], [[Code Monkeys|Todd]], or [[Fish Hooks|Mr. Baldwin]], you'll be thinking of [[Aqua Teen Hunger Force (Animation)|Master Shake]] the entire time, largely because they all have a tendency for awkward pauses and [[Large Ham|overly dramatic]] deceleration indicating they're all [[Cloudcuckoolander|a little out of it]].

** Provides the voice for Prometheus, the player's [[Voice Withwith an Internet Connection]], in ''[[The Conduit]]''.

** I don't care how she tries to disguise it, either with a Russian accent (as in ''[[Captain Planet and Thethe Planeteers]]'') or a British accent (as in ''[[The Replacements]]'' or ''Dial M For Monkey''), I know Kath Soucie's voice ANYWHERE. Okay, it is a little bit difficult to tell [[Rugrats|Phil and Lil]] from [[WITCH (Animationanimation)|Nerissa]]...

** Did you know that she was [[Space Jam (Film)|Lola Bunny?]] Or [[Star Wars Expanded Universe|Mara Jade?]] [[Empire At War|Or the Rebel comms officer?]] [[Knights of the Old Republic|Or Lonna Vash?]] [[[[Dark Forces Saga]] Or Tavion? After her ''[[Star Wars]]'' roles I can never watch ''[[Captain Planet and Thethe Planeteers]] or ''[[Space Jam (Film)|Space Jam]]'' without thinking of the [[Witch Withwith a Capital B|witches]] she played.

*** And oh, she has been the voice of Kanga in the [[Winnie the Pooh]] franchise since the 80s.

*** She's also Cubert in ''[[Futurama (Animation)|Futurama]]'', Amanda Evert in ''[[Tomb Raider]]'', Kar-in in the remake of ''[[Lost Vikings]] 2''...she's been around.

** She'll always be [[Sonic theSat Hedgehog (Animation)AM|Princess Sally (and her PDA, Nicole)]] to this troper.

** She also played Fifi La Fume and Sneezer in ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures (Animation)|Tiny Toon Adventures]]''.

** What about [[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents|Timmy Turner]], [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Tails]] or [[Pokémon (Animeanime)|Ash Ketchum]]?

** After watching ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood]]'' and the [[Hellsing]] [[OVA|OVAs]]s on the one day, this troper was rather disturbed to realise that Olivier Mira Armstrong was Zorin Blitz.

**** This troper always hears [[The Medic|Hanataro]] [[Bleach|Yamada]] and [[Excel Saga (Animeanime)|Dr. Shiouji]] as [[Martian Successor Nadesico|Tenkawa Akito]].

** Recently played a Saburo Togusa of ''[[Durarara!!]]'', a character that actually doesn't sound like Shinji for once. Oh, also [[Buso Renkin|Papillon]]

** What? No mention of [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Arakune]]??? You failed me Internet.

** Steve Staley tends to do similar roles as young, arrogant men. Some of his more notable roles are Neji Hyuuga from ''[[Naruto]]'', Kadaj from ''[[Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (Anime)|Final Fantasy VII Advent Children]]'', Toshiro Hitsugaya from ''[[Bleach]]'', Kamui from ''[[X 1999]]'', and Kouji Minamoto from ''[[Digimon Frontier]]''.

** Ben Stein is well-known for his dull, drab monotone voice. So dull, in fact, that it's interesting, bringing [http://everything2.com/title/The+World%2527s+Dullest+Person mathematical paradox] to mind. Among the roles in which he's alternately amused the audience/bored them to tears:

** On ''[[Duckman]]'', Stein plays Duckman's psychiatrist neighbor, who just happens to be named...[[The Danza|Ben Stein]].

** On ''[[Animaniacs (Animation)|Animaniacs]]'', Stein tormented the Warners as Francis "Pip" Pumphandle, a man prone to telling very long, very dull anecdotes in a monotone voice while following the Warners everywhere, no matter where they tried to run.

** On ''[[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents]]'', Stein voiced the incredibly dull and boring Pixies, a race of [[Obstructive Bureaucrat|Obstructive Bureaucrats]]s who wanted to make Fairy World as drab and lifeless as they were.

** Stein also counts as [[Hey, It's That Guy!]], having played an incredibly boring teacher/authority figure in productions such as ''[[Ferris Bueller's Day Off (Film)|Ferris Buellers Day Off]]'', ''[[The Wonder Years]]'', and the [[The Movie|film adaptation]] of ''[[Richie Rich (comics)|Richie Rich]]'' that starred Macaulay Culkin. Stein is also the only person who could appear on ''[[Married... Withwith Children]]'' dressed in a chicken suit and still be able to publish serious books and articles in financial and political journals.

** In ''[[The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion (Video Game)|The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion]]'', you're pretty much sent on a world-saving quest by ''Captain Picard''! Or as [[X -Play|Morgan Webb]] put it, "When Picard says 'Quest!', I say 'How long?'"

** He makes an interesting Great Prince of the Forest in ''Bambi II''.

** He did two Anime dubs: Lord Yupa in ''[[Nausicaa of the Valley of Thethe Wind]]'' and Grandfather in ''Steamboy''.

** And let's not forget his regular role as Bullock in ''[[American Dad (Animation)|American Dad]]''.

** When this troper got into ''[[MASHM*A*S*H (television)|M*A*S*H]]'' in her early teens, it didn't take her too long to figure out [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|Maj.]] [[Dr. Jerk|Winchester]] (that is, David Ogden Stiers) was actually Cogsworth from Disney's ''[[Beauty and The Beast (Disney)|Beauty and Thethe Beast]]'' and Gov. Ratcliffe ([[Talking to Himself|and]] [[My Friends and Zoidberg|Wiggins]]) in ''[[Pocahontas]]''.

** Not only was he Ratcliffe and Cogsworth, but he was also [[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|the Archdeacon]], [[Lilo and Stitch|Dr. Jumba]], and [[Atlantis: theThe Lost Empire|Fenton Q. Harcourt]]

** Speaking of ''[[One Piece]]'' and ''[[DragonballDragon Ball]]'', Sonny Strait uses a very similar voice for Usopp as he did for Krillin. Reruns of [[Dragonball Z]] were aired right after new episode of ''[[One Piece]]'', so it's very easy to compare.

** Surefire way to realize who did Misuzu in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]''? Listen to [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Maes Hughes]] squeeing over his wife and daughter.

** Compare [[Soul Eater|Ragnarok]] with [[Kenichi: theThe Mightiest Disciple|Appachai]]. The only difference is the accent.

** Let's see. The titular character in ''[[Madeline]]: My Fair Madeline'', Cassie in ''[[Dragon Tales]]'', Bijou in ''[[Hamtaro (Anime)|Hamtaro]]'', and a skittle in ''Make Way For Noddy''.

** [[Playing Against Type]] in [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]], when cast as [[Rich Bitch]] Diamond Tiara.

** Hearing [[Lucky Star|Miyuki's]] voice come out of [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Sonou Mori]] was interesting. Hearing her voice come out of [[Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini|Miyo Takano?]] [[Nightmare Fuel|Less so.]]

** I fully expected [[Code Geass|Kallen Kouzuki]] to start speaking french. I blame [[IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix|Fantine Valjean]].

** [[Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories|Adell]] is [[Tales of Legendia (Video Game)|Moses]] . And they are both [[Badass]].

** Tara Strong has done the voice of [[The Powerpuff Girls|Bubbles]], [[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents|Timmy Turner]], [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Raven]], [[Kim Possible|um...Tara]] and [[Fillmore!|Ingrid Third]] among many, many others. And that's not even covering the video game characters she voiced such as [[Killer 7Killer7|KAEDE]] and [[Final Fantasy X (Video Game)|Rikku]].

** The similarities between the voices of [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Raven]] and [[Tales of Symphonia (Video Game)|Presea Combatir]] are NOT a coincidence.

** Your contributor has noticed how similar [[All Grown Up!|grown-up Dil Pickles]] and [[Ben 10 (Animation)|Ben Tennyson]] sound.

** And like Kelly Sheridan listed above, she was also one of the 12 little girls in two straight lines in ''[[Madeline]]''.

** [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|Twilight Sparkle]] is [[The Powerpuff Girls|Bubbles]]? Now I'm lost.

*** If that's not weird enough for you, she's also Margaret Moonlight, the 4th ranked assassin in ''[[No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle (Video Game)|No More Heroes 2 Desperate Struggle]]''.

** She voiced [[Spider -Man: Shattered Dimensions|Doctor Octopus 2099]], a notable case of [[Playing Against Type]].

** She's also voiced [[Gotham Girls|Bat]][[Batman: The Animated Series (Animation)|girl]], [[Wolverine and Thethe X -Men|X-23, marrow]], [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Billy Batson]], [[Drawn Together|Princess Clara]], [[Transformers Animated|Sari Sumdac]], [[FostersFoster's Home for Imaginary Friends|Terrence]], [[Xiaolin Showdown (Animation)|Omi]], [[Danny Phantom|Ember]], [[Blue Dragon|Kluke]], [[Jak and Daxter|Keira]], and [[Fairly Oddparents|Timmy Turner]]. The similarities cannot be unheard.

** Don't forget [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|Twilight Sparkle]] and [[Batman: Arkham City|Harley Quinn]].

** As the page quote lampshades, Eric Stuart has similar voices for [[Pokémon (Animeanime)|Brock]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Kaiba]], as well as [[The Slayers|Gourry]], though he has a completely different style when he did [[Pokémon (Animeanime)|James]], [[Yami no Matsuei|Wataki]], and [[Kirby: ofRight theBack at StarsYa!|Meta Knight]]. Ironically, Yami's own VA is quite recognizable in [[Four Kids4Kids! Entertainment|4Kids]] shows himself (especially when doing the Yami tone), [[Yu-Gi-Oh!: theThe Abridged Series|because he's voiced by]] '''DAN GREEN'''!

** [[Twenty Four24|Jack Bauer]] rescues you from a Japanese POW camp in the very first mission of ''[[Call of Duty]]: World At War.''

** He is [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Beast Boy's]] dad in ''[[The Wild]]''.

** Don't forget, he was also {{spoiler|the sniper}} in the 2002 psychological thriller, ''[[Phone Booth (Filmfilm)|Phone Booth]]''.

** In an episode of ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate the Combat Butler]]'' season 2, the cast are trapped in a dungeon. Nagi finds herself in the vicegrip of a robot, and Hayate wishes he had the power to save her. Cue dead priest Linn telling him to ''[[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Image it]]''.

** That scene was an [[Actor Allusion|exact parallel/parody]] of the scene in ''[[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight]]'' before Berserker dies.

** This editor was half expecting to hear the priest say that [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|everything in the dungeoun belongs to him.]]

** [[Death Note (Manga)|Light]] has the same voice of Quatre of ''[[Gundam Wing]]''. Oh, Quatre...(not to mention that insane follower Mikami's dub voice is Trowa; in the original Japanese, he's the Ohtori Kyouya to Light's Tamaki.)

** Not really surprising, considering that Brad Swaile's done several notable ''[[Gundam]]'' characters, including the protagonist of the original series. And yet again, he's been tapped for more ''Gundam'' - he's the VA for Setsuna in the English dub of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00]]'' as well...

*** [[Name's the Same|Which is]] a [[Mega Man (Videovideo Gamegame)|different kind of funny.]]

** Swaile also played Nightcrawler in ''[[X-Men: Evolution]]''. Try reconciling the fuzzy blue dude with Light Yagami.

** I can top that. Brad Swaile also voices Lan from ''[[Mega Man NT Warrior (Anime)|Mega Man NT Warrior]]''. You can do a double take upon hearing that particular voice for Light, rather understandably as Lan is the ultimate personification of the [[Idiot Hero]]...not to mention ''twelve.''

** Equally weird: [[Ranma One Half½|Mousse]]

** Top this: Swaile is the voice of Maxwell from ''[[Hamtaro (Anime)|Hamtaro]]''. Maybe one of his books is a Death Note.

** Before being Lan, he dealt with [[Robot Girl|another kind]] of artificial intelligence as Otaru in ''[[Saber Marionette J (Anime)|Saber Marionette J]]''.

** Given the popularity of both shows on this wiki, [[Tropers/Rogue 7|This Troper]] is honestly astonished that no one else pointed out that [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|StrikerS! Chrono]] is also [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Kyon]] before he did.

** What makes it more funny is that [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Inspector Acous]] is also [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Itsuki]]. That scene where they are eating cake together never fails to make me laugh.

** And then there's that extremely obvious [[Shout -Out]] in ''[[Kanon]]'' 2006...

*** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] had a fangasm when she watched the opening moments of ''[[ShuffleSHUFFLE!]]'' and heard Mikuru's voice come out of Kaede's mouth. Then she literally exploded when she heard Kyon's voice come out of Rin's.

** Also, [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Kyon]] is [[Gintama (Manga)|Gintoki]]. Yup - a [[Deadpan Snarker]] [[Ordinary High School Student]] sharing the same voice acting as a [[Sweet Tooth]] Jump-loving [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]].

** And now we have [[Umineko no Naku Koro Nini|Ronove]], whose relationship with Battler completely reverse the dynamic shared by Kyon and Koizumi.

** And he's got white hair, an...interesting sword and gets into comical fights over food with a weird being who has no concept of proper behavior. It's not [[Gintama (Manga)|Gintoki]] it's [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Ragna the Blood Edge]]!

** [[Tropers/Mini Nephthys|This troper]] had to go look up a clip of [[Riviera: theThe Promised Land|Hector's]] voice in Japanese, because she read that he had the same voice actor as [[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Shirou]]. They sound very similar. They act absolutely ''nothing'' alike.

*** This makes it funnier when you realize that he also voices [[Black Butler (Manga)|William T. Spears]], a work-a-holic Shinigami in ''[[Black Butler (Manga)|Black Butler]]''.

** You're forgetting [[Axis Powers Hetalia (Manga)|England]]!

** Here's another offer: [[Hey Arnold!|Stinky Peterson]], [[FostersFoster's Home for Imaginary Friends|Bloo]], and even [[Phineas and Ferb|Buford]].

* '''[[Nicole Sullivan (Creator)|Nicole Sullivan]]'''

** Nicole Sullivan provides the voice for Shego from ''[[Kim Possible (Animation)|Kim Possible]]'' and Franny Robinson from ''[[Meet the Robinsons (Disney)|Meet the Robinsons]]''. Needless to say, this troper kept expecting Franny's hands to start glowing green at any moment.

** Franny's younger self is voiced by Jessie Flower, who also voices Toph on ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]''. Young Franny's threats of using her martial arts skills suddenly make more sense.

** She also does Louise in ''[[Slacker Cats (Animation)|Slacker Cats]]'' and [[Joan of Arc]] in ''[[Clone High (Animation)|Clone High]]''.

** [[Tropers/Danny Lilithborne|This troper]] can't really hear Shego and not think "[[Mad TV|You know what? Nuh uh!]]".

** Don't forget Sullivan's role as Mira Nova on ''[[Buzz Lightyear of Star Command (Animation)|Buzz Lightyear of Star Command]]''... something that this troper had forgotten she'd even seen until watching ''[[Meet the Robinsons (Disney)|Meet the Robinsons]]''.

** You'd think [[Western Animaton/The Secret Saturdays|Zack Saturday]] would behave better, knowing that Mom not only has a [[Flaming Sword]], but those [[Kim Possible (Animation)|glowing green hands]]...not to mention that she was tough enough to take on [[The King of Queens|Jerry Stiller]] as a dog-walking client. Not the dog owner, but as someone to be walked.

** This troper expects [[The Penguins of Madagascar (Animation)|Marlene]] to turn evil any day now. Or at least start working for [[John Dimaggio|Rico.]]

** [[Rugrats|Susie Carmichael]], [[Histeria (Animation)!|Aka Pella]], [[Drawn Together|Foxxy Love]], [[Codename: Kids Next Door|Numbuh 5]], [[Danny Phantom|Valerie Gray]], [[Atlantis: theThe Lost Empire|Princess Kida]], [[Gargoyles (Animation)|Hyena]]... you know this voice.

** Let's not forget a girl who could be an older and evil version of [[Rugrats|Susie Carmichael]], if not her older and evil cousin. [[As Told Byby Ginger|Miranda]]. (Fun fact: Miranda was actually retconned as black because of her actress)

** Also [[Batman Beyond (Animation)|Maxine Gibson]]. Terrifingly, she also plays Mercy Graves in [[Superman: Doomsday]], there was nothing more shocking for this trooper than to see the sexy if heartless bodyguard open her mouth... and hear Maxine Gibson speaking to Lex Luthor.

** And apparently, even the [[Care Bears]] needed her help. She's the voice of Kim in the first movie and Christy in the second movie. [http[wikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cree_SummerCree Summer#Filmography |She's certainly done a lot of stuff.]]

** Believe it or not, she was [[Mortal Kombat|Kitana]] in the [[Animated Adaptation]] ''[[Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm (Animation)|Mortal Kombat Defenders of the Realm]].''

** [[Tropers/Metool|This troper]] was playing ''Tony Hawk's American Wasteland'' when he made the connection between punk chick Mindy and energetic poodle Cleo from ''Clifford the Big Red Dog'' on the nearby TV where his younger brother was watching.

** All five of us who played ''[[Arc the Lad (Video Game)|Arc the Lad]]'''s sequel ''Twilight Of The Spirits'' would recognize that Cree Summer is also playing Tatjana. Odd considering Tatjana's blonde and caucasian.

** And Penny from ''[[Inspector Gadget]]'' [[Batman: Arkham Asylum|isn't the only Penny she's voiced...]]

** [[Willy Four Eyes|This]] ''[[Dynasty Warriors: Gundam]]''-playing troper won't be able to separate [[Mai-Otome|Tomoe Marguerite]] from [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam (Anime)|Haman]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ (Anime)|Karn]], even though the two characters couldn't be any further polar opposites (the former an [[Yandere|unstable]] [[Smug Snake]], while the latter is a cool-yet-cruel [[Magnificent Bastard]]).

** This [[Gundam]] fan was pretty freaked out when he realized he knew [[Ranma One Half½|Tatewaki Kuno]]'s seiyu from somewhere. In fact, [[The Other Wiki]] did proof he is indeed the very same as [[Bright Slap|Noah Bright]]. Never imagined I'd ever laugh about Bright-san...

** Does the warden of the Fire Nation's prison ship in episode 1x06 of ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' sound a bit like Lieutenant Sulu, by any chance? It's no coincidence; that is indeed George Takei providing his voice.

** How 'bout Ricardio on [[Adventure Time (Animation)|Adventure Time]]?

** [[Arrested Development (TV series)|George Bluth Sr.]] is also [[Archer|Len Trexler and Trevor Utne]].

** While watching ''[[Clannad (Visualvisual Novelnovel)|Clannad]]'', one might mutter "[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|White Devil]]? Is that you?" upon hearing Mei speak. Both characters were voiced by Yukari Tamura. This troper wonders if the [[Fan Sub]]'s usage of "Speak of the [[Fan Nickname|devil]]" to refer to Mei in one scene was intentional or not.

** And then it goes around full circle when [[Yukari Tamura]] voices [[Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini|Rika Furude]], whose regular cutesy voice sounds almost exactly like Mei, and her serious voice sounds almost exactly like Mai.

** Now that deep voice sticks to her when she's voicing [[Umineko no Naku Koro Nini|Frederica Bernkastel]].

** [[This Troper]] doubts she'll ever be able to watch ''[[Black Cat (Mangamanga)|Black Cat]]'' again without expecting Echidna to start [[Beam Spam|Beam Spamming]]ming up the place and calling Creed "[[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Souichirou-sama]]".

** When [[This Troper]] was playing ''[[Valkyria Chronicles]]'', he was literally thinking "[[Hey, It's That Voice!|Hey, I know that voice!]]" The Captain is [[Ghost in Thethe Shell|the Major]]!"

** Mayumi Tanaka is known primarily for playing the role of various [[Cross -Dressing Voices|young males]] in shonen anime. Hearing her play possible female romance interest Kanna Kirishima in ''[[Sakura Taisen]]'' using a voice similar to plucky male hero [[One Piece|Monkey D. Luffy]] is really, really ''weird''.

* Is that Luffy's voice in [[MegamanMega Man Legends|Mega Man Volnutt's]] mouth?

** Another one with the surname Tanaka. This troper wonders what would be one's face if it was noted that [[Chobits (Manga)|Chii]] has the same voice as [[Futari wa Pretty Cure|Shiny Luminous]].

** ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini]] Kai'': That strange woman Takano is always talking to on the phone sounds a lot like (and looks a lot like) [[Rozen Maiden|Suigintou]].

** And now she's [[Adventure Time (Animation)|Princess Bubblegum]].

** Hey, [[Yes! PrecurePretty Cure 5|Cure Rouge]] too.

*** And in the ''[[Digimon Savers]]'' dub, the two newcomers to the series playing main characters also had ties to ''Naruto'': Gaomon is Might Guy and Marcus is Iruka -- thatIruka—that is to say, Skip Stellrecht and Quinton Flynn respectively.

** and [[Monster (Animemanga)|Dieter]] is Naruto.

** Listen to the voice of [[StarcraftStarCraft II|James Raynor]]'s chief engineer/mechanic/new-unit-provider, Mr. Swann. If you've played ''[[Gears of War]]'', doesn't he sound familiar? That's right, [[Mr. Fixit|Damon]] [[Genius Bruiser|Baird]] is the [[Cool Starship|Hyperion]]'s engineer!

** Let's see, he's been [[XXX Holic×××HOLiC|Doumei]], [[Ouran High School Host Club|Kyoya]], and [[Ghost Hunt (Manga)|Lin]] opposite [[Todd Haberkorn|Watanuki!]] What else is he going to do?

*** The new [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Scar]]?

*** He's [[Axis Powers Hetalia (Manga)|France]] as well.

** [[This Troper]] ended up spending several minutes trying to place [[Final Fantasy X (Video Game)|Tidus]]'s voice. When she did, she nearly started shouting at her TV, recognizing him as [[Tales of Symphonia (Video Game)|Yggdrassil]].

** Also James Arnold Taylor, plays [[The Lion King|Timon]] and freaking '''''[[Pirates of the Caribbean|Capt. Jack Sparrow]]''''' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II (Video Game)|Kingdom Hearts II]]''.

**** Not to mention playing Clone-Wars era Obi-Wan Kenobi in most of his video game appearance and the original Clone Wars cartoon.

** Be careful, though, if you're his teenage sidekick; you'll be expected to [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|fish his bow out of a crocodile pit.]]

** [[Left 4 Dead|Zoey]], [[Halo|Cortana]], [[Super Mario Bros.|Toad AND Princess Peach]] -- she—she was even [[The Other Darrin]] for [[No One Lives Forever|Cate Archer]] -- Jen—Jen Taylor has played a number of iconic characters.

** Recently, she's the voice of the floor announcer for ''[[One1 Versusvs. a Hundred (TV)100|One Versus a Hundred]]''. Having Cortana ask you what the Daikatana ads said John Romero was going to make us was a priceless moment for me.

** [[Tropers/GracieThis Lizzie|Gracie LizzieTroper]] had no interest in ''[[Dinosaur King]]'' when she first heard it. Then she caught a few seconds of the dub and did a double take when she recognized Ash from ''[[Pokémon (Animeanime)|Pokémon]]'' 's voice in Max's body. That is, Veronica Taylor. The show now makes [[Tropers/GracieThis Lizzie|Gracie LizzieTroper]]] smile for the nostalgia kick (as Veronica Taylor and the rest of the ''Pokémon'' got a case of [[The Other Darrin]] forced on them and because [[Tropers/GracieThis Lizzie|Gracie LizzieTroper]]] hasn't watched ''Pokémon'' in ages).

*** [[Tropers/LoveThis Is Weird|Love Is WeirdTroper]]] had the same reaction, with "Wait a sec, isn't Ash a Pokemon Trainer?"

** Don't be surprised if you start playing ''[[Ape Escape (Video Game)|Ape Escape]] 2'' and ask yourself, "Since when did Ash change careers to chasing monkeys?"

** ''[[Seven of Seven]]''. The Nanas. [[Pokémon (Animeanime)|One's Ash, another's May]]. Also doubles as a case of [[TalkingInner to ThemselfDialogue]].

** And Ash is [[Warrior Cats (Literature)|a bunch of cats]] [[Omen of the Stars|too]]?

** For his leads, Mr. Templeman is often typecast to play [[Magnificent Bastard|Magnificent Bastards]]s, for which he usually employs the same voice. It's quite interesting to find out that [[Legacy of Kain|Kain]] not only has a feud going with [[Fantastic Four|Reed Richards]] and a stake in the ''[[Jade Empire]]'' arena, he is also making a bid for the throne of [[Dragon Age|Ferelden]].

** Don't forget about Bill Thompson! He's the voice of [[Peter Pan (Disney film)|Smee]], [[Alice in Wonderland (Disney film)|The White Rabbit and Mr. Dodo]], [[Sleeping Beauty (Disney film)|King Hubert]], five different parts in ''[[Lady and The Tramp (Disney)|Lady and Thethe Tramp]]'' (including Jock the Scottish Terrier), Ranger Woodlore from the Humphrey the Bear series, and he even got the honor of playing Scrooge McDuck in the featurette ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcIszzV-WrY Scrooge McDuck and Money]'' before Alan Young came along. As for a non Disney example, Bill Thompson is also Droopy Dog and Spike/Butch!

** [[Naruto|Kisame Hoshigaki]]? Yeah, he's [[Bobobo-Bo BoboboboBo-bobo|Don Patch]]. When this troper mentioned this at GameFAQs, they couldn't believe it.

** This troper had a nerdgasm when he realized [[Tales of the Abyss (Video Game)|Jade Curtiss]] was [[Ace Combat|AWACS Thunderhead]].

*** Just when you though Saix couldn't get any crazier, it turns out he shares the same voice as [[Cowboy Bebop (Anime)|Mad Pierrot]].

*** Hope he's not yelling, "[[Candyman (Film)|Candyman]]!"

**** Worse. "[[Transformers (Filmfilm)|The last Prime is dead!]]"

** [[Splinter Cell|Andriy Kobin]] and [[Assassin's Creed|Federico Auditore]] [[Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Video Game)|never asked for this]].

** [[WITCH (Animationanimation)|Taranee]] and [[American Dragon: Jake Long|Trixie]] really couldn't be any more different (except for a few [[Character Development|episodes in the second season]]), but it's pretty easy to tell that they're voiced by the same woman.

** [[VI Warshawkski]] isn't bad, [[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?|she's just drawn that way]]. (uncredited)

** [[Tropers/Grev|This troper]] was flipping past [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] one Saturday morning and came across a short-lived kids' show called ''[[Teamo Supremo]]'', then heard Rope Girl speak up and yelled, "That's [[BeakmansBeakman's World|Josie]]!"

** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] just started watching ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate the Combat Butler]]'' recently, and when Sakuya was introduced, the image of [[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Rin Tohsaka]] doing a [[Boke and Tsukkomi Routine]] with Archer instantly came into her mind. Sakuya's got high grade [[Zettai Ryouiki]] too.

** [[Handy Manny]] (from ''Playhouse Disney'') is [[That '70s Show|Fez]]!

** [[Batman: Arkham Asylum|Poison]] [[Batman: Arkham City|Ivy]] is [[Metal Gear Solid (Video Game)|Sniper Wolf]], [[Spider-Woman (Comic Book)|Spider-Woman]] from ''[[Marvel Ultimate Alliance]]'', Shaak Ti in [[Star Wars: theThe Clone Wars]], Ultimecia in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'', amongst other roles. She was also on several television shows in the 1980s.

** Okay, so this VA probably isn't as well known as other examples on this page, but [[Willy Four Eyes|I]] definitely got a deja-vu vibe while playing ''[[Blaz BlueBlazBlue]]'' and joked that [[Guns Akimbo|dual-gunslinger]] Noel Vermilion could pass for a slightly-grown-up [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Nanoha Takamachi]].

** She's branching out, having played [[Dynasty Warriors|Lian Shi]].

** A VA whose most famous work is one of the Eds on ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]''. This Troper was seriously disturbed to find out [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Tieria Erde]] and [[Gundam Seed|Athrun Zala]] were done by the same guy as Double D.

*** [[Hamtaro (Anime)|Dexter]] sounds much closer to Double D.

** And a [[Blood Plus+|Chiropteran Queen]].

** If you watch any anime featuring a powerful, [[Magnificent Bastard]]-style villain, or [[Ax Crazy]] maniac bad guy, chances are quite high that they will be voiced by a certain Norio Wakamoto. He has voiced many villains in his time, ranging from Cell of ''[[DragonballDragon Ball]]'' to M. Bison of ''[[Street Fighter]]'' fame, Black Shadow in the ''[[F-Zero]]'' anime, Emperor Charles Di Britannia from ''[[Code Geass]]'' and Igniz, the final boss of ''[[The King of Fighters|King Of Fighters 2001]]'' (and at one point, Rugal). [[Tropers/Mighty Kombat|this troper]] was surprised to face Rugal in KOF 2002 and suddenly blurt out "You mean this time he's voiced by CELL?!"

** Not really good or evil, but he has also voiced a [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|cat]] and a {{[[Nichijou |wooden cube}}]], I kid you not. Heavy dramatic voice and all.

** Someone pointed out in the [[Moe]] page that Hynden Walch, who voiced Yutaka in ''[[Lucky Star]]'', also voiced Starfire in ''[[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Teen Titans]]'', only in a much higher pitch. Just look at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWylCsSYKew about 2:35 in on this]...

** [[Gurren Lagann|Nia]] (pre-[[Time Skip]]) = [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Starfire]] (she even talks similarly). It actually works pretty well. Though after the [[Time Skip]] she has an entirely different VA.

** Don't forget [[Adventure Time (Animation)|Princess Bubblegum!]]

** [[Adventure Time (Animation)|Princess Bubblegum]] and [[Chalk ZoneChalkZone|Penny Sanchez]] sound... exactly the same. Both hail from shows from Frederator, both hail from shows starting out cartoon shorts shows, and both are ([[Insufferable Genius|insufferable]]) genius female inventors. It took watching both on DVR back to back for me to figure out that they sound exactly alike.

** Not all of her roles are [[Moe]] though. Case in point: [[The Batman (Animation)|Harley Quinn]], [[Generator Rex|Breach]], [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Blackfire, and Madame Rouge]].

** Ms. Edna Krabappel of [[The Simpsons (animation)|Springfield Elementary]] might sound familiar to older viewers who remember Wallace as Carol, Bob's receptionist on ''[[The Bob Newhart Show]]''.

** Wholesome mom Fran on ''[[Dinosaurs]]'' was voiced by Jessica Walter, who became not-so-wholesome mom Lucille Bluth on ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]''.

** If you need a badass, he's your guy. Joe in ''[[Family Guy]]'', Brock Samson in ''[[The Venture Bros]]'', ''[[The Tick (animation)]]'', and the animated series version of [[Buzz Lightyear of Star Command]], to name a few.

** Oh, come on -- [[The Emperor's New Groove (Disney)|Kronk]] is a nice guy -- untilguy—until you diss his spinach puffs!

** It was a shock to the system to realise [[BaldursBaldur's Gate|Jon Irenicus]] is actually [[Star Trek|Chancellor Gorkon.]]

** On the other hand, Irenicus ''is'' a nice match for [[Batman: The Animated Series (Animation)|Ra's Al-Ghul]].

** [[Freakazoid!|The Lobe]] as [[Gargoyles (Animation)|The Archmage]], not so much. They're similar in attitude, though.

** [[Men in Black (Animationanimation)|Alpha]], [[Spider -Man: theThe Animated Series|Herbert Landon]], and [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy|Nergal]]

** Also [[Tron|Ed Dillinger, Sark, and the MCP]] (the former two live-action roles, the latter voice-only, and all those only in the original movie--reprisalsmovie—reprisals of any of those roles tend to fall to Corey Burton).

** In the animation department, she played [[Astro Boy]], [[Kimba the White Lion]], [[Gigantor|Jimmy Sparks]], and her final role has her [[Playing Against Type]] as [[Courage the Cowardly Dog|Eustace's Mother]].

** Albert Wesker in ''[[Resident Evil Code: Veronica]]'', ''[[Resident Evil 0Zero]]'', and ''[[Resident Evil 4]]''.

** The [[Spike TV]] series ''[[Deadliest Warrior]]'' is narrated by none other than David Wenham. The same David Wenham who played the narrator Dilios in ''[[Three Hundred300]]''. [[So Cool Its Awesome|Yeah...]]

** Even versatile voice actors can have this happen when they voice a lot of characters. The prolific [[Frank Welker]] is, among other roles, recognizable as Soundwave in ''[[Transformers]]'', [[Darkseid]] in the two "Super Powers" series of ''[[Super FriendsSuperfriends]]'', Freddy in ''[[Scooby Doo]]'' and Dr. Claw in ''[[Inspector Gadget]]''.

*** And neither was it for the entirety of ''[[Transformers (Filmfilm)|Revenge Of The Fallen]]'', meaning he was pretty much Dr. Claw on a satellite. It's pretty damn effective though.

** The above tropers have a talent for understatement. [[Frank Welker]] is arguably the most prolific voice actor of all times (over 90 movies, not counting TV shows). Known especially for his critter voices. Welker is listed as the number one "All Time Top 100 Stars at the Box office," not as a box office draw, but in terms of the total revenue the over 90 films he has participated in have generated. [[Ghostbusters|Slimer]], [[Aladdin (Disney film)|Abu]], [[Scooby Doo]], [[Transformers|G1 Megatron, Rumble/Frenzy]], [[Challenge of the Go Bots|Scooter]], [[Futurama|Lord Nibbler]] (both his squeaking and talking versions), and [[The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron|Goddard]] are just some of the voices he's done. Odds are, if you've watched a cartoon in the last 40 years, you've sampled his work.

** When the "critter" role on ''[[Gargoyles (Animation)|Gargoyles]]'' was being cast, another actor who was auditioning for the part said, "I'll just hold the script until Frank gets here."

** He was Totoro in the redub of ''[[My Neighbor Totoro]]'' (duh!) as well as the Cat Bus. Plus, he has a role in ''[[Nausicaa of the Valley of Thethe Wind]]''.

** Some more obscure roles include Father Time and Fatch in ''[[Histeria (Animation)|Histeria!]]'' and Meat in ''[[The Schnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show]]''.

** In one of his most obscure roles ever, he played a demonic banana in ''[[DuckDuckTales Tales(1987)]]'', who has Megatron's voice. That's right: '''Megatron as a killer banana'''.

** [[Tropers/Furry Kef|This Troper]] noticed immediately when watching ''[[Futurama]]'' for the first time that Fry's voice sounded exactly like Doug Funnie's did (the original ''[[Doug]]'', not the newer series).

** [[Futurama|Dr. Zoidberg]]'s voice was lent to a Stegosaurus in the ''[[Histeria (Animation)|Histeria!]]'' episode "The Dawn of Time".

** Red M&M, the current [[Bugs Bunny]] and Elmer Fudd and Porky Pig and Woody Woodpecker, some incarnates of Stitch and Rayman, Professor Farnsworth, Zapp Brannigan, Lars Fillmore, Leo Wong, Richard Nixon's head (during two commentaries he uses Nixon's voice to say "Rubber baby buggy bumpers,") know him?

** He also played Skeets in ''[[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]''.

{{quote| '''Sonic:''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}ZNC9dpy2EYU&fmt{{=}}18 Everything about you but yer rhymes are fat. *crash* Did I do that?]}}

** Not to mention that in ''[[Sonic Underground]]'' he did the speaking voices of [[Talking to Himself|all three]] hedgehog siblings (yes, [[Cross -Dressing Voices|he voiced Sonia]]), while their singing voices were given by different actors.

** Mae Whitman voiced Katara from ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' and Rose from ''[[American Dragon: Jake Long]]''.

*** This troper kept secretly hoping that [[Disney Fairies|Tinkerbell]] would start [[Kill It Withwith Water|waterbending]].

** Once he read the cast list, this troper always pictured [[Arrested Development (TV series)|Ann Veal]] reciting Avatar's opening narration.

** And long before Ann Veal, she was the president's kid in ''[[Independence Day]]''. <ref>While [[Mary McDonnell|the First Lady]] moved on to playing [[Battlestar Galactica|an actual president]].</ref>

** This troper couldn't help but notice how much [[Transformers Animated|Swindle]] sounded like [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy|the Boogie Man]].

** It's rather funny when you realize that Charden, the most [[Noble Demon|noble of the villains]] in ''[[Black Cat (Mangamanga)|Black Cat]]'' is voiced by the guy that also voices the [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', Father.

** As great as Williams is at improvising, it's pretty easy to notice that [[Aladdin (Disney film)|Genie]], [[Robots|Fender]], [[Fern Gully|Batty]], and [[Disney Theme Parks|the mad scientist from The Timekeeper]] all sound the same.

** After hearing him as Roy Mustang, Travis Willingham is ''very'' easy to spot as Darlton on ''[[Code Geass]]''.

** Would you expect [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Ragna the Bloodedge]] to say something like that? No? Of course not.

** [[The Super HeroSuperhero Squad Show|TRAVIS SMASH!!]]

** It ''really'' doesn't help that he plays a [[Handsome Lech|similar]] [[Chivalrous Pervert|character]] on ''[[Ghost Hunt (Manga)|Ghost Hunt]]'' (well, similar to Roy Mustang), and he does it opposite of [[Colleen Clinkenbeard]]. Oh dear.

** Hearing [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Roy Mustang]]'s voice coming out of Kanda's mouth in the dub version of ''[[D .Gray Man-man]]'' was the funniest thing this troper had heard in a while.

** Diagnostician [[Trauma Center|Gabriel Cunningham]]'s voice was eerily familiar to This Troper when she was watching [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'s Roy Mustang. You don't need a beaker to make scrambled eggs, Gabe - use alchemy.

** You keep expecting [[Gargoyles (Animation)|Matt Bluestone]] to call someone a [[Back to The Future|butt head]].

*** That was about the only thing that [[Wing Commander (Videovideo Gamegame)|Maniac]] ''didn't'' call his long-time rival, [[Mark Hamill|Luke Skywalker]].

** [[Back to The Future|Biff]] shows up as Flats the Flounder in an episode of [[SpongebobSpongeBob SquarePants]]. Both have the compulsion to spout "butt" a lot.

** One of the most iconic villain voices of all time. Did anyone ever wonder if [[Dastardly and Muttley Inin Their Flying Machines|Dick Dastardly]] and [[The Smurfs|Gargamel]] were related?

** And yet he was also [[Winnie the Pooh|Tigger]].

** [[Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy|Zaphod Beeblebrox]] as Judge Ghis in ''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XII]]''.

** [[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|Kefka]] sounds an awful lot like [[Persona 4|Teddie]] for a few moments, doesn't he?

** [[Digimon Frontier|The Trailmon and EmperorGreymon]] are also secretly related to [[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Yazoo]].

** [[Ben 10 (Animation)|Upchuck]] is secretly [[Kikaider|Jiro]] in disguise.

** Commander Irving Vold Valeria on ''[[Wild ArmsARMs]] Twilight Venom'' sounds like a [[Smug Snake]]![[Ai Yori Aoshi (Manga)|Kaoru Hanabishi]]. Talk about your differing personalities. Wittenberg joins another ''AYA'' alum on this series; See [[Michelle Ruff]]'s [[Hey, It's That Voice!/I to R|entry]].

** This troper started laughing once he figured out that [[Star Ocean 3|Cliff Fittir]] was [[Naruto|Kakashi]], [[Xenosaga (Video Game)|Allen]], and [[Digimon Tamers|Henry]].

*** You're telling me that [[Xenosaga (Video Game)|Allen]] is the distant descendant of [[Sakura Taisen|Sunnyside?]]

** He also played a nameless extra of a scientist who talked to [[Prototype (Videovideo Gamegame)|Alex Mercer]] during one of the Web Of Intrigue segments (specifically, the one where {{spoiler|the real Alex mentions that he wasn't paid to feel}}) -- [[Liangnui|I]] was wondering what [[Naruto|Kakashi]] was doing working in the [[Big Applesauce]]. I checked the ''very long'' credits list to be sure. He's actually not listed for that one.

** [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|CJ]] has to jump on board a plane and kill everyone while it's taking off? Why should he? Oh, [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)|Hades]] told him to. OK then.

** Also, it's creepy hearing James Woods in [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)|Hercules]] after watching ''Videodrome''. For that matter, [[Nightmare Fuel|anything is creepy after watching Videodrome]]!

** It's hard to imagine [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)|Hades]] working as a [[Shark|prosecution lawyer]].

** [[Final Fantasy: theThe Spirits Within (Anime)|I KNOW!!!]]

** Apparently {{[[[Ghost In The Shell Anime]] the Puppet Master}} is secretly [[Ghost in Thethe Shell: Stand Alone Complex|the Minister of Home Affairs]]!!

** Koichi Yamadera, better known as [[Cowboy Bebop|Spike Spiegel]], [[Ranma One Half½|Ryoga Hibiki]], [[Ghost in Thethe Shell|Togusa]], [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Ryoji Kaji]], and [[Chars Counterattack|Gyunei Guss]].

** This troper finds it hard to imagine anyone played by Mayumi Yamaguchi (Lee Jenrya in ''[[Digimon Tamers]]'', Forte from ''[[Galaxy Angel (Animeanime)|Galaxy Angel]]'', for example) as anyone but Envy from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]''. It can be kind of jarring at times.

** Also the voice of [[Vandread|Hibiki Tokai]], who despite his upbringing had better luck with the ladies than [[Panty and& Stocking Withwith Garterbelt (Anime)|Brief]].

** [[American Dragon: Jake Long|Lao Tsu]] and [[Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi|Kaz]] have one thing in common. They are short, old, Asian and voiced by this guy.

** Along with [[Dante Basco]] and [[Mae Whitman]], he is another ''ADJL'' alumnus in ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' that makes us wonder "I thought that voice sounds familiar..." (He voiced Jeong Jeong.)

** [[Higurashi|Mion/Shion]], Satsuki Yukino is, beyond everything else [[Full Metal Panic!|Kaname Chidori]] and [[Inuyasha|Kagome Higurashi]].

** In relation to [[Fan Nickname|Shmion]], this troper first encountered her as [[Clannad (Visualvisual Novelnovel)|Misae Sagara]], so when Shion started to shout "Satoshi-kun," she noticed her inflection and voice sounded a lot like "Shima-kun."

** Back in the late nineties, this troper watched ''[[Beverly Hills, 90210]]'', starring Ian Ziering as Steve Sanders. Fast forward to 2004, and he played ''[[Freelancer]]'', starring Ian Ziering as Edison Trent -- thisTrent—this time with an older, deeper voice.
