Line 118:
* Some combinations imitate ventriloquism. ''[[Vampire Princess Miyu]]'' has Megumi Ogata voicing both [[An Ice Person|Reiha]] and her [[Creepy Doll]] Matsukaze. ''[[Galaxy Angel (anime)|Galaxy Angel]]'' has Mika Kanai counterbalancing Vanilla's [[The Quiet One|lack of speech]] through [[Team Pet|Nomad]] [[Stalker with a Crush|gushing]] over her.
* Early European Portuguese dubs had this bad: ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', ''[[Saint Seiya]]'', and ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' had less than ten voice actors. They were fairly versatile, though.
* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' had a couple of shared seiyuu ([[Keiko Han]] as both Luna and Queen Beryl, [[Chiyoko Kawashima]] as Haruna-sensei, Shingo and Sailor Pluto), but usually the characters were too different, not allowing even for a small conversation between them. Then came the fifth season and brought in Chibi-Chibi, voiced by Usagi's seiyuu [[Kotono Mitsuishi]]—it's rather easy to pull off this trope when one of the characters has a trait of [[Pokémon-Speak]].<br />Worth noting that the last pair actually ends up playing the role of a [[Red Herring]], especially with all the guesses and jokes about Chibi-Chibi being Usagi's second daughter. Had the anime followed the manga closely, the shared voice would've had a justification, as Chibi-Chibi is {{spoiler|Sailor Cosmos, who is hinted to be a form of Usagi from a distant future}}. In the anime, she is a completely different entity, {{spoiler|namely, Galaxia's own Star Seed -- meaning that in this continuity she has nothing to do with Usagi apart from wanting to encourage her to defeat Galaxia}}.
* ''[[Fairy Tail]]'' has ''a lot'' of characters played by the same person in the Japanese version. For example: Jet, Macao, Horologium, and Sagittarius are voiced by Masaki Kawanabe.
** In a literal example of people talking to themselves, a bunch of characters get to meet their [[Bizarro Universe|Edolas]] counterparts, leading to plenty of this trope throughout the arc.
