Voice Actors

It comes as no surprise to those of you who know me that I love Anime. And what's the coolest thing about Anime (besides the amazing storylines)? The talented voice actors!
Anime would lose its golden chair if the voice acting sucked! It would be like watching Star Wars with Xena playing in the background!
So, without further ado I wish to give a shout out to 3 of my favorit voice actors! Each of them so well known to me that I can ALWAYS pick them out of a show!
Counting down please :)

3. Yuri Lowenthal



Yuri is probably most known for his part as Sasuke Uchiha in Naruto. Another role he did that I absolutely love is Suzaku Kururugi in Code Geass.
Here's a link for him doing a little spill for Sasuke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIbHT23XqcU





2. Johnny Yong Bosch



Johnny does many characters I love. His most well known roles are: Ichigo Kurosaki from Bleach, Vash from Trigun, and Lelouch Lamperouge from Code Geass.
On top of being a voice actor he was also one of the first origional Power Rangers which, less face it, I was a HUGE fan of as a kid :) . . . even though it's a little dorky now lol.
Also, he's a martial artist which I absolutely think is a valid argument to making him a cooler voice actor in my own mind. So here is a link for Johnny being an angry Ichigo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiNJUhq7DS0


AND NOW FOR #1


Vic Mignogna



Vic *drool* is awesome. He's best known for Edward Elric in Full Metal Alchemist, (my personal favorite) Tamaki Suou from Ouran High School Host Club, and VERY recently Zero Kiryu from Vampire Knight. If you take a look at his rap sheet on Wikipedia you will see that he's done LOADS of stuff!
The reason I really like Vic is because he's seems so friendly with the fans. Do a search on Google and you'll find pictures of him hugging fans. Not just little hugs but full fledge arms around, head to head, huge smile hugs.
On top of having possibly the most adorable voices he's very nice looking, especially since he's nearing 50.
Vic's is really funny and in every video you'll find on Youtube with him he's cracking jokes, teasing/flirting with the fans, and just overall having a good time. I would love to meet him :)
Here is a hilarious link for Vic's favorite line from OHSHC (further proof that he's great with fans): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xN8ZyxkCHE&NR=1
So there you have it! All three of these guys I would love to meet, they each have a special place in my heart for making characters real to me :)
I love you Vic, Johnny, and Yuri!

  1. Very interesting! Since I haven't watched anime for about 15 years I'm definitely out of the loop. Thanks for the info.

  2. Thats so cool! I have to admit I don't know you're #1 (The other too, cool! The power ranger, awesome!) but I liked his youtube video very much. He just made an awesome experience for that girl.
