Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

blah....

Erhamgerd, Fifth Element's on netflix! :D

Dat Chris Tucker

about freaking time...

I know, that his most known role, haha! I didnt mention it because I figured everyone knew already :P

He also did Kimahri and Wakka in Final Fantasy X, Gilgamesh in Final Fantasy XII and Final Fantasy XIII-2, Doctor Drakken from the Kim Possible TV series, General Grievous from Star Wars: The Clone Wars, the Scotsman from Samurai Jack, and Gonza in Princess Mononoke.

That's just what I know off the top of my head :P
He's a big voice actor and gets around apparently. He's got a lot of great roles under his belt.

Voice actors overall impress me.

It's an under appreciated talent.

Agreed! I wish I had the talent. It's definitely a fun job, and to see the film/game/show once it's finished has to be an extraordinary feeling :3

I especially like watching the "Behind the Scenes" things, like the Joker video I posted last night with Mark Hamill. It's a lot of fun to see them actually performing the role, getting up and acting it out while doing the voice.

Too bad JRPGs get such shitty ones

inb4 laughing scene

edit: also anime, watching the american version of Naruto makes me want to puncture my ear drums.

Laughing Scene in FFX: Funny, I JUST PLAYED THROUGH THIS SCENE NOT 10 MINUTES AGO. It was intended to be that way, awkward and out of place. I thought it made sense, considering the story and the circumstances. Tidus was upset with Auron, and about the news he got from him. Yuna finds out, and explains that so many people in Spira are depending on her so she has to keep up a happy face/positive attitude even when she's feeling the worst. The laughing bit was trying to get Tidus to understand and lighten up about his situation.
Yes, it was awkward (the stares they got from Auron/Lulu/Wakka LOL) but it had a point and it was made very clear ^^

I'm sure you all knew this, but still. I felt like typing xD

Naruto: The only voice I could tolerate in that was Kakashi's. I never watched too far into Naruto...it just didn't click for me. I didnt make it past the Rock Lee VS Gaara fight in the Genin Exams near the beginning.

Meh, it was over 1/3'd of the way in if you don't include the lolfiller (which I don't).

Personally I don't mind that scene so much in X, but so many people rage over it.

I watch it subbed, and hadn't watched episodes of the show in months, I'll catch back up again soon, I read weekly though.

Anime voices are so god damn awful, especially the female characters. They just sound so odd

Depends on the person.

I absolutely HATE Rie Kugimiya's voice (tsundere queen). It's the same in every god damn anime and you can tell who it is. Kinda like Kana Hanazawa, but her's is tolerable (it's soft and sweet).

I used to think the same about Aki Toyosaki (Yui from K-on) until I watched Medaka Box and I was shocked at how good she can be. Too bad she didn't really change it for Kon in Tokyo Ravens =(.

and I don't give a *** what people say about Aya Hirano (Haruhi), she's got *** talent.

I hate Kugimiya Rie's voice too, very annoying except when she does Alphonse.

Drac, correct me if I'm wrong but I believe we were talking about english dub, not JP dub.

I'm also assuming that these are JP voice actors you're talking about here.

Back when I first heard her, I thought it was interesting. Now everytime I hear her it's like URGH.

Kinda like her voice in No Game No Life. (Which is very similar to Mondaiji-tachi) When I heard it yesterday watching Ep 1, I nearly tore out my hair.

Tho her voice was very well suited for her roll in Kyousou Giga imo. I also figured she'd play Sena in Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to. When reading the manga I had her voice to that character lol.

I don't mind Hanazawa Kana, I liked her Shiemi/Nessa. Ooooh she's gonna be Rize in Tokyo Kushu too, looking forward to that

Yes, these

I don't watch most of those, I can't get into them.

I think I just need to watch more shows...

I've only seen a small handful of ones with some of them in it.

I mostly read Korean stuff since I don't like how Japanese characters fit into a handful of personalities. I like darker stuff though and most of that isn't animated :/ Gonna check out Hitsugi no Chaika though, it has lots of killing and fighting lol

What are you watching this season?

I can tell you right now, Soul Eater Not! is really good already and it just started lol.

It's pretty good so far. First ep ended with a cliffhanger tho. /tableflip

So far only Black Bullet because I read the manga and will look at Hitsugi no Chaika sometime and Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei since I read that too. Hate the sister with a passion though.

Most things look kinda ***, like Blade and Soul and Dragonar Academy.

I can't stand the "little sister" characters and since anime/manga is so full of them I'm really picky with what I watch/read

They need some older characters or just not annoying ones

Not a little sister character but the worst character last season was definitely Himeragi Yukina from Strike the Blood, so god damn annoying. IIE SENPAI

Yeah, I've seen both seasons and the movie. It's okay. Tomoki's JP VA is annoying and fitting.

Blade and Sword is meh and Dragonar Academy is ok so far. Those aren't ones I'd recommend, but that's also what happened with Toaru Hikuushi e no Koiuta and right now I recommend it.

I really enjoyed that show because I enjoyed the movie a lot

I prefer Ikaros over Nymph and Astrea =x I just like how she takes things seriously lol
