Episode 3: Dub! I'm sorry. It has to be said.

Oh my god, he killed Kenny!

That bastard!


--

Brandon has the dub voice of Jin from SC and Hotohori from FY. Oddly, it sounds too feminine for Brandon. More feminine than I expected.

Harry's voice I don't recognize, though it's not entirely unfamiliar. Kenny's voice sounded exactly like how I expected it would sound.


I promise, this is the last Gungrave post I make without spoiler-cuts. But really, it had to be said! Long live the SouthPark generation.


p.s. Brandon is hot! Yes, I am smitten. I don't know if I'll like his future incarnations, but Street!Punk!Brandon with the sleeveless vest and tight black pants and dog tags and shaggy Johnny Depp hair... looking about my age... yeah. I'm totally smitten.

Yeah, I was going to mention it earlier about Brandon's voice being Jin's but forgot. I'm still kinda soso on his dub voice too but after awhile it grows on me. Though when I think about it, I really don't know who could've done Brandon's voice aside from the guy they used (maybe Vash?)

The more I think about it, Harry's voice overall isn't too bad, they got it down pretty good when he's an older man (though to me he still sounds like a bit of Vincent Price *lol*) Hmmm...young Harry's dub has done voices as (depends if you've seen these or not dubbed):

Saiyuki Reload - Sha Gojyo and GTO - Murai.

Oh my god, he killed Kenny!

Goes to show how long its been that I rewatched the earlier eps, I forgot all about using that quote for him. Should've made something like that for my SP GG version of Kenny.

Thought you might get a kick out of these (http://www.livejournal.com/community/gun_grave/53860.html). They are just as cute in person as they are in those pics.

Harry's English voice I like pretty well.

Cute keychains. Though this isn't really a show where I *want* to see the characters all chibi-- they're a little too violent for that to work for me.

I was just browsing your LJ... I find the idea of Heero's voice for Sasuke amusing (I had to check the name on google and imdb.com... I didn't realize Heero's VA was cute and young). And actually, I think I'd be okay with that. Though my ideal Sasuke choice would be Chris Patton, doing the same voice he uses for Fakir in Princess Tutu.

The news of Kakashi's voice was... well, my worst nightmare for the Naruto dub. The only thing I've spent months and months silently and mentally begging the studio people not to do... I didn't care about the other voices as long as they didn't pick HIM for Kakashi. And then they did! And I was thoroughly disgusted. I want that man to stop putting his fingers in all my favorite anime, dammit! Weren't all the other ones enough? At least he's not in the FMA dub.

Why couldn't they have had Wolfwood's dub actor be Kakashi? That so would have worked for me.

I'd be okay with JYB (Vash) doing Naruto, I suppose. If he made his voice REALLY young. Did he do young Vash? Whoever did kid Vash could do Naruto alright.

I was shocked that not only did they finally make keychains but to have them as chibis. Though Harry could look a bit more sinister even as a chibi. Then again, I did make a Crazy! Harry SP character *lol*

Yeah I can see Mark voicing Sasuke but I guess we might not even hear it if it was a hoax regarding 3 of those VA's. The only ADV series I have is FMP! so thats the only version of Chris I get to hear.

I remember a long time ago when a few peeps were just joking around about who did they think would do voices in Naruto dub. I believe Steve's name did come up and its still not surprising that he was picked for the role. I guess in some ways, Steve is like Crispin, almost everywhere you look, they are tagged for main characters or its just too easy to automatically KNOW who is going to be picked for whatever character cause its always going to be one or the other to get that role. Its funny cause back in the days, it used to be Scott McNeil.

Quite shocking that Steve wasn't in FMA. Steve also does voice tracks for Gungrave Overdose game as Fangoram, Zelle, and get this....Bunji >____< I was actually disappointed in his way of voicing Bunji. It wasn't the way that we are used to hearing Bunji in the anime dubbed or subbed, he didn't have that rough and tough smokers voice.

I never thought about Wolfwood's voice for Kakashi, interesting. I don't think I ever heard him in anything else aside from Trigun, though I see he's listed for Gundam 08th MSTeam (my fav series aside from GW) but it doesn't say as who. Yeah, thats my thoughts too on how Johnny could pull off doing Naruto IF he is the VA picked for him. It would still sound kinda weird. And I just realized it after I mentioned about Johnny could've voiced Brandon, perhaps not. Ppl would complain "its too much like Trigun even if he is speaking quieter." Which I think he still could've done Brandon okay, just picture Kiba, he did a pretty good job on how he handled the tone for the character. Yeah! Kid Vash would be a good choice for Naruto too.

I wasn't thrilled with him as Kiba, I kept hearing hm being Vash. And then I quit after episode 4, so I never got a chance to bond with him in that voice. I don't think I'd like him as Brandon though.

The thing with Heero's VA doing Sasuke that amuses me is that Sasuke's japanese voice sounds so frickin' old... and I always thought Heero's voice sounded too old, too manly. So it'd be a neat little paralell there if he was chosen.

Scott McNeil as Kakashi was my second worst nightmare, but that was still SECOND, not FIRST. And sadly my first worst nightmare happened afterall.

I'm still bummed it wasn't Wolfwood's VA, however. Now that the idea has occured to me it's kinda growing in appeal. ::slams down growing appeal:: I shouldn't get attached to the idea, though, knowing it's not gonna happen.

I admit, in my head Sasuke's dub voice is already chosen... it's the voice from the Ninja of the Night video. That's bonded as English!Sasuke voice in my mind.

::points to icon::

This is his third incarnation. Which is near the end of the flashback arc.
