I'm actually fearful of what voice they are going to use for Kyon.....

Normally, I wouldn't give a damn to these dub voices, as I always listen to the Japanese audio and can actually understand like 30% without relying on subtitles. But if you ask me, Kyon's English dub has got to be voiced by a Brit, only a Brit can give those witty sarcastic comments that define Kyon's cynical character.

funny, i was thinking the same thing.

but its America, if it's going to be a Brit its going to be the Villian, bloody Americans....
yes it makes perfect sense, my accent is so evil, because if its used in the leading character the public will vote back the King of england then we all have to pay double taxes and invade the next country.....

Choices for Kyon's are up for voting upon.

In short, they all suck. No Brits. I ened up picking the fourth one.

WARNING!
Do not listen to the last choice, it will rot your brain.

The whole site is a 404 now :p

Guess I'll have to wait a few hours.

Ugh #4 was terrible. Picked 3 myself.

I picked the third choice, too. Everyone seems to have voted for the first one, but I think that voice is more suited to Tsuruya.

i picked 3 for haruhi as well, but 5 wasn't bad. though I'm a little dissapointed I missed the Kyon vote

i shouldn't judge these actors on saying one word, but when that first one for haruhi said "so..." i cringed and moved on

edit: while looking around youtube, I found a fan dub of the scene of the haruhi vote audio.

Not bad at all. Ryoko's voice sounds badly recorded, though.

Sounded like she had a Brooklyn accent to me.

bollocks!

>_<

I dunno what they are thinking when they cast the voice of Kyon!

Boardroom:

Executive 1#: right, we need the voice of..*looks at script*...kyon, any suggestion?

Excutive 2#: oh i know! Lets grab a metrosexual softspoken with the hint of a modern girlish high school typical voice tone, to translate his heavy sarcastic Japanese counterpart into our savvy English dubs!

Executive 1#: Bollocks! DONE! Next! Haruhi?

Excutive 2#: oh i know! Lets grab a metrosexual softspoken with the hint of a modern girlish high school typical voice tone, to translate her heavy outragous Japanese counterpart into our savvy English dubs!

Executive 1#: DO- Wait! Does the English dub makes the word "Brigade" sound like "with-gays"?

Excutive 2#: Yup.

Executive 1#: DONE!

Yeah, I just posted in another thread about how curse words are replaced on here. Guess it's for the kiddies.
