Fantasy Anime Dub Casting Thread

[Razor]

Tactimon: Vic Mignogna

I cannot see this at all whatsoever.

 

[GingaDaiuchuu]

I cannot see this at all whatsoever.

The man has range. He was even Broly, which is about as far from some of his other roles as possible.

 

[Mandouga]

How about this for a Heroman cast?

Joey: Elisabeth Shue
Lina: Lea Thompson
Denton: Christopher Lloyd (if available; Dan Castellaneta otherwise)
Psy: Michael J. Fox (or a soundalike)
Will: Thomas F. Wilson
Nick: Crispin Glover

I chose Elisabeth Shue for Joey since Claudia Wells pretty much doesn't act anymore...

 

[Mesousa]

Pita Ten was one of the best shows I've ever watched...thing is, it has no english dub, but it had a spanish dub.

I doubt anyone could license it (the show's over 8 years old), but my ensemble cast would go like this:

Kotarou Higuchi: Aaron Dismuke
Misha: Katie Crown
Shia: Melissa Davis
Koboshi Uematsui: Hilary Haag
Takashi Ayanokoji: Grant George
Hiroshi Mitarai: Chris "Kirbopher" Niosi
Kaoru Mitarai: Annick Obonsawin
Nya: Jill Frappier

Bonus points for those who know who voices Nya in my fantasy cast version.

Kurokami The Animation

Funimation VA:

Keita- Sean Schemmel if possible, Vic Mignogna otherwise

Kuro- Laura Bailey

Akane- Colleen Clinkenbeard

Punipuni- Michael Sinterniklaas

Excel- Stephanie Sheh

Steiner- Patrick Seitz

Yakumo- Chris Patton

Riona Kogure- Luci Christian

Hiyou- Kyle Hebert if possible, Travis Willingham otherwise

Kakuma- Brittney Karbowski

Makana- Monica Rial

Nam- Jamie Marchi

Reishin- Kyle Hebert if possible, Rob Mungle otherwise

Daichi Kuraki- Chris Burnett

Yuki Kaionji- Luci Christian

Mikami Houjou- Laura Bailey


Ocean Group:

Keita- Brad Swaile

Kuro- Alexandra Carter

Akane- Chiara Zanni

Punipuni- Colin Murdock

Excel- Tabitha St. Germain

Steiner- Paul Dobson

Yakumo- Matthew Erickson

Riona Kogure- Kelly Sheridan

Hiyou- Trevor Devall

Kakuma-

Makana- Chantal Strand

Nam- Nicole Oliver

Reishin- Brian Drummond

Daichi Kuraki- Kristian Ayre

Yuki Kaionji- Moneca Stori

Mikami Houjou- Tabitha St. Germain

Vic would work for Keita, but I think I imagine Chris Patton or Jason Librecht's voice may fit Keita voice better. uh. let's change Kakuma's VA from Brittney Karbowski to Clarine Harp becuase I just watch Kurokami and found out Kakuma has a bit of a manly voice, so I imagine Clarine Harp fitting Kakuma (Ocean's VA for Kakuma should be Saffron Henderson). I actually like Jocelyne Loewen to be Kuro (after seeing how she voice Komugi in Nurse Witch Komugi, that how I imagine how Kuro would sound like if Ocean dub the series). But most of all, I think the cast are OK even though I haven't finish the series.

Isn't Jill Frapier the VA who voice Luna in Sailor Moon and I see what you did there? Anyway, I think it still possible that Pita-ten could get pick up in USA. Don't forget Turn A Gundam was shown in 1999 in Japan and yet it got pick up for America this year. So I think we could see Pita-Ten pick up in the future, I would love Funimation to pick that up. If Turn A Gundam which is a eleven years old serie (when it was debuted in Japan in 1999) can be picked up then it's possible Pita-Ten could one day be pick up by Funimation (or Sentai/Section 23 film)

Kotarou Higuchi: Aaron Dismuke or Todd Haberkorn

[Mandouga]

I just had a great idea for a Fairy Tail cast:

Natsu - Rob Paulsen
Gray - Jess Harnell
Lucy - Tress MacNeille
Makarov - Frank Welker

Bonus points if you recognize this particular lineup.

Meanwhile, I'm not sure who would be right for Happy or Erza.

Meanwhile, I'm not sure who would be right for Happy or Erza.

I know! Animaniacs! (the names and the particular fact that they were lead voices in that series got to me)

Anyways, I'm back and this time, I'm going to do something interesting. As some of you may recall, there were two anime series that were set in the same universe as Beast Wars entitled Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo. And I was thinking yesterday about the casts for both series. I figured that in II, Animals fought vehicles and as such, I thought Old vs. New. Have Canadian voice actors do the Maximals and Americans voice the Predacons (I really don't get why TakaraTomy never changed the names, so don't ask me). Neo, I thought, would have a similar way of doing it. Only instead of vehicles, there are dinosaurs. So I just thought why not. and so I did. Now onto the casts:

And remember, I'm only going with the actors available within the time periods, I am not going to go too crazy with today's actors.

Beast Wars II:

Maximals:
Leo Convoy, Mantis: David Kaye
Apache: Blu Mankuma
Bighorn, Diver, Powerhug: Scott McNeil
Tazmania Kid, Tonbot: Ian Corlett
Scuba, Drill Nuts: Lee Tockar
Scissor Boy, Skywarp: Brian Drummond
Bigmos, Ikard: Ron Rubin
Lio Junior: Tara Strong
Tripledicus, DJ: Rino Romano (hey, he played a Latino in Nascar Racers, why not here?)
Motorarm: Paul Dobson
Gimlet: David Sobolov
Magnaboss, Santon: Don Francks

Maximal Allies (also cast with American actors, as they're not really Maximals after all):
Artemis, NAVI-Chan: Wendee Lee
Moon: Brianne Siddall

Predicons:
Galvatron: Mike Reynolds
Megastorm/Gigastorm: Richard Epcar/Brad Garrett (respectively, of course)
Starscream/Hellscream: Charlie Adler
BB/Max B, Autolauncher: Gregg Berger
Dirge/Dirgegun: Tom Kenny
Thrust/Thrustor, Autostinger: Neil Ross
Autocrasher, Sea Phantom: Jim Cummings
Autojetter, Terrormander: Michael Bell
God Neptune, Halfshell: Frank Welker
Coelagon: Cam Clarke
Scylla: Mona Marshall


Beast Wars Neo (mostly different, but a fair amount of it has cast from the previous list above):

Maximals:
Big Convoy- Gary Chalk
Longrack- Jim Brynes
Cohrada, Randy- Scott McNeil
Stampy, Heinrad- Brian Drummond
Break- Colin Murdock
Rockbuster- Ron Pardo
Mach Kick- Joseph Motiki
Sharp Edge- Michael Dobson
Bump- Don Brown
Survive- Paul Dobson

Great Convoy: Peter Cullen (couldn't resist)
Leo Convoy: David Kaye (obviously)
NAVI (No relation to the other one in II): Julie Lemieux

Predacons:
Magmatron: Neil Ross
Guiledart: Tom Kenny
Saberback: Peter Renaday
Sling: Jess Harnell
Dead End: Pat Fraley
Hydra: Allen Oppenhimer
Crazybolt, Killer Punch: Frank Welker
Archadis: Michael McConnohie
Hardhead: Clancy Brown
Bazooka: Jeff Bennett

DNAVI: Tress MacNeille

Blenatrons:
Rartorata:Steve Blum (can work, remember Green Goblin?)
Elephorca: Lawrance Bayne
Drancron: Kirk Thornton
Unicron: Tony Jay (Couldn't help it)

So there you have it. Enjoy.
