Current Events > I have a weird thing for dub voice actors

(+) Yeah! (+)

I can remember a ton of them off my head and name shit they been in that i ain't even seen

I will play games and watch tv shows just because they have my favorite voice actors in them

Explain why my brain so fucked up

I like playing the "Whos that voice?" Game as well.

Although.. i maaay do it the opposite way. IE if theres a new show/movie/game i do occasionally wikiwalk on the VAs to see if i find anyone recognizeable, and gets giddy if i do.

EDIT: Not "Exclusive" to dub, but as i only speak 2 languages, i dont really notice nuance outside of those.

If you knew 10% of what I do you'd think your brain is the most normal on the planet.

Seems we have ourselves a derp brain duel on the horizon

I've got a talent for recognizing faces and voices really easily and quickly and I think that plays into it some

I have a weird thing where I think certain voice actors have hot voices

I enjoy spotting voice actors in things, be it in video games, tv shows, and movies. Thanks to HBO Max, my wife wanted to watch the Studio Ghibli stuff on there, and it has been spot the voice. I found James Arnold Taylor (Obi-Wan in most other media besides the movies, Tidus in FFX) in one a few days ago.

I do this too, and I also look for voice actors when they show up in live action TV/movies.

Like Gideon Emery in the first season of Daredevil.

I always thought Crispin Freeman had a hot voice until he voiced Winston in Overwatch ;-;

I had a fun time with finding Garrus Vakarian in an episode of Castle.

He's one of the Russian brothers, specifically the one who gets his head destroyed in a car door by Kingpin.

I knew a guy who was a bit extreme like that.

Like if you talk to him about a show, hell mention how like, Magic Girl Adelaide is actually voiced by Margaret Marjorie, and then go through that actors entire filmography.

well, almost, because halfway through that monologue theyll mention that in 1997 Margaret was in Kung Fu Cyber Quest, which is where Felix Donaldburg debuted in voice acting as Deep Fist Kaiser, and before you know it youve played Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but instead of Kevin Bacon its some dub voice actress and now youre an expert on anime that even native Japanese otaku have never even heard of.

Unfortunately this fetish doesn't extend to things from the west. I don't know why

Naussica of the Valley of the Wind. He doesn't have many lines, but when you hear him, you hear him.
