Line 5:
** Hilariously, in the manga crossover oneshot ''Cross Epoch'', guess who Piccolo is teamed up with? Yep. Zoro.
** He also does the voice of The Conqueror from ''The Last Remnant'', who... also sounds a lot like Piccolo.
** Easy enough to believe he did ''[[ShinCrayon ChanShin-chan]]'''s narrator (which sounded a bit like [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Major Armstrong]] in episode 3), but then there's Yanro...
** And then [[Final Fantasy I|Garland]] in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]''. Sounds like a more civilized Piccolo, but only a [[Chaotic Evil|leetle bit]] more civilized.
** Not quite as easy to notice, but if you listen hard enough you can hear little bits of some of his other voices in Rundas from ''[[Metroid Prime|Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]]''.
Line 15:
** [[Married... with Children|Peg Bundy]] has provided the voices for [[Futurama|Leela]] and Spinelli's Mom on ''[[Recess]]'', among others.
 
* '''[[Chiwa Saito]]'''
** This happens with Chiwa Saito in ''[[Samurai 7]]'' with Komachi and in ''[[Pani Poni Dash!]]'' with Rebecca Miyamoto.
** That voice however is similar with '''[[Rie Kugimiya]]''''s small-girl voice, so one may mistake that Rie Kugimiya's character is voiced by Chiwa Saito, and vice versa.
 
* '''Daisuke Sakaguchi'''
** Daisuke Sakaguchi, who also played [[Baccano!|Jacuzzi Splot]] and [[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam|Usso Ewin]].
** He also does the voice of Shinpachi Shimura in ''[[Gintama]]'' and even LOOKS LIKE HIM.
 
* '''[[Takahiro Sakurai]]'''
** Heine Rammsteiner from the ''[[DOGS Bullets and Carnage]]'' OVA. Cloud Strife from ''[[Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children|Final Fantasy VII Advent Children]]''. Let's see -- bothsee—both are light-haired [[Badass Abnormal]] anti-social and psychologically damaged [[Super Soldier|Super Soldiers]]s with [[Dark and Troubled Past|Dark and Troubled Pasts]]s who wear sleeveless dark longcoats. Hmmm....
** [[This troper]]'s brain kind of broke when she finally realized why [[Mononoke|the Medicine Seller]] sounded so familiar: He was ''[[D.Gray-man|Kanda]]''. Much-calmer-than-usual Kanda, but she was still struck by the resemblance.
** [[Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok|Adult!Loki]]? Please meet [[Digimon Adventure|Motimon]], [[Digimon Adventure 02|Tentomon]], et al. All these years later and this Troper's mind is still blown.
Line 43:
 
* '''[[Randy Savage]]'''
** OHHH YEAHH former [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] and [[WCW]] champion and Slim Jim spokesman. He's played Sasquatch in ''[[The Xs]]'', Space Ghost's granddad in ''[[Space Ghost Coast to Coast]]'', Master Sergeant Emily Dickinson Jones in ''[[Duck Dodgers]]'', Rasslor in ''[[Dexter's Laboratory|Dial M For Monkey]]'', and Bonesaw the wrestler in the first [[Spider-Man]] film.
 
* '''Miyuki Sawashiro'''
** This troper freaked out when he realized his favorite [[Ar tonelico|Reyvateil]] had the same distinct [[Tsundere]] voice as [[Goshuushou Sama-sama Ninomiya Kun-kun|Houjo Reika]] {{spoiler|and the characters even have the same name}}. Also, quite notable are [[Rozen Maiden|Shinku]] (who is also very [[Tsundere]]) as well as [[Odin Sphere|Velvet]], who has the same voice, but much less Tsun.
** If this troper remembers correctly, she also voiced [[Shugo Chara|X-Chara Diamond]]. The normal Diamond, on the other hand, was voiced by Kanae Ito, the same voice actress as Amu-- OhAmu—Oh great, [[Talking to Himself]] again?!
** How could this troper forget Cammy from ''[[Street Fighter IV]]''?! Also, after hearing Carl's Japanese voice in ''[[Blaz BlueBlazBlue]]'', you could definitely hear Sawashiro Miyuki in his voice, despite the character being a [[Cute Shotaro Boy]].
** It was ''very'' difficult for [[This Troper]] not to laugh when she heard [[Yggdra Union|Milanor's]] voice coming out of [[Bakemonogatari|Kanbaru Suruga's]] mouth. They have the exact same pitch and occasionally the same speech patterns. One is an idiot thief. The other is a card-carrying yandere lesbian/BL fangirl/lolicon/possible troll.
** It seems that [[Phantom of Inferno|Cal Devens]] let her hair down a bit and became a [[Catherine|succubus in the process.]]
Line 88:
 
* '''[[Patrick Seitz]]'''
** ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron]]'': guest-starring Silverbolt [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|The Bloodedge]].
 
* '''[[Rod Serling]]'''
Line 121:
 
* '''Armin Shimerman'''
** Subverted in ''[[BioshockBioShock (series)]]'': Until looking it up on [[IMDb]], this troper had absolutely no clue that Andrew Ryan was, in fact, [[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|Quark]].
** And in ''[[Ratchet and Clank Up Your Arsenal]]'' and [[Ratchet and Clank|the following games]], he plays (Captain) Quark's nemesis, [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Dr. Nefarious!]]
** And he's also been both [[Jade Empire|an emperor and the abbot who got in his way.]]
Line 130:
 
* '''[[Kaori Shimizu]]'''
** On Kaori Shimizu, when this troper watches ''[[Shinkon Gattai Godannar]]'', she plays as the Loli Lou Roux, which obviously had her using her loli-ish voice (as shown in ''[[Serial Experiments Lain]]''). Except when she starts her battle [[Kiai]]... whereas this troper suddenly get vibes that either Signum or Lamia possessed her and gives her some hot blood elements (of course, at that time, [[The Hero]] Goh was also doing his own [[Kiai]], so it might not sound so obvious). Then again, that seiyuu also has [[Lucky Star|Hiyori Tamura]] in her resume, and she sounded NOTHING like any of these mentioned roles.
** This troper was also puzzled by the casting of Ms. Shimizu as Hiyori, even though she rose to the occasion admirably. A little research shows that she also played Motoko in ''[[Fruits Basket]]'' and Keiko in ''[[Genshiken]]'', which goes a long way towards explaining it.
** Then, taken on full throttle in ''Mugen no Frontier''. Aschen seems to be a normal [[Genki Girl]]... but when she uses a certain move in her Genki mode... This Troper is pretty sure Shimizu Kaori uses the exact SAME voice she uses for Hiyori.
Line 139:
 
* '''[[Ryoko Shiraishi]]'''
** When one plays the ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'' [[Visual Novel]], it might be shocking to discover that Kappei is having a hard time performing menial tasks, knowing that he shares the same seiyuu with [[Hayate the Combat Butler|Hayate Ayasaki]].
** Apparently, Hayate can play [[Saki (manga)|mahjong]] too.
** Also, Hayate's a [[Mahou Sensei Negima|ninja]], [[Verbal Tic|de gozaru]].
Line 169:
 
* '''Yeardley Smith'''
** A [[Running Gag]] in the TV sitcom ''[[Herman's Head]]'' involved office worker Louise (played by Yeardley Smith) being told by someone she was talking to on the phone that she sounded exactly like "that [[The Simpsons (animation)|Lisa Simpson]] character".
 
* '''Dana Snyder'''
Line 183:
** In ''[[Transformers Animated]]'', the minor supervillain Professor Princess sounds like an even more grating version of Lil from ''[[Rugrats]]''.
** I don't care how she tries to disguise it, either with a Russian accent (as in ''[[Captain Planet and the Planeteers]]'') or a British accent (as in ''[[The Replacements]]'' or ''Dial M For Monkey''), I know Kath Soucie's voice ANYWHERE. Okay, it is a little bit difficult to tell [[Rugrats|Phil and Lil]] from [[WITCH (animation)|Nerissa]]...
** Did you know that she was [[Space Jam|Lola Bunny?]] Or [[Star Wars Expanded Universe|Mara Jade?]] [[Empire At War|Or the Rebel comms officer?]] [[Knights of the Old Republic|Or Lonna Vash?]] [[[[Dark Forces Saga]] Or Tavion? After her ''[[Star Wars]]'' roles I can never watch ''[[Captain Planet and the Planeteers]] or ''[[Space Jam]]'' without thinking of the [[Witch with a Capital B|witches]] she played.
*** And she played another bitch in ''[[Dragon Age Origins]]'' in the form of [[Manipulative Bastard|Marjolaine.]]
** She's both Jetta Hanover from ''[[Clifford the Big Red Dog]]'' and Daffodil from ''Clifford's Puppy Days''. In both case, she was a b...witch as well. Go figure.
Line 198:
** Believe it or not, she also voices the [[Lemmings]] in ''Lemmings 3D'' and ''The Adventures of Lomax''.
** [[The Voice|Sam's sister]] who would drop things on him in ''[[Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad]]''
** What about [[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents|Timmy Turner]], [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Tails]] or [[Pokémon (anime)|Ash Ketchum]]?
 
* '''[[Yoko Soumi]]'''
** After watching ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood]]'' and the [[Hellsing]] [[OVA|OVAs]]s on the one day, this troper was rather disturbed to realise that Olivier Mira Armstrong was Zorin Blitz.
 
* '''Daniel Southworth'''
Line 214:
** I SWEAR he voiced Milanor in ''[[Yggdra Union]]''. The character may be more butch than Spike's standard fare, but just listen to him when he's yelling. I'd recognize that scream anywhere.
** Spike seems to be all about the mechas: first, Evangelion, then Code Geass R2, and now [[Steambot Chronicles]].
** Recently played a Saburo Togusa of ''[[Durarara!!]]'', a character that actually doesn't sound like Shinji for once. Oh, also [[Buso Renkin|Papillon]]
** What? No mention of [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Arakune]]??? You failed me Internet.
** He opted out of mechas and turned to cyborgs in the Battle Angel OVA of the Battle Angel Alita franchise. He played Yugo/Hugo, a maintenance worker for Dr. Ido.
 
Line 225:
** On ''[[Duckman]]'', Stein plays Duckman's psychiatrist neighbor, who just happens to be named...[[The Danza|Ben Stein]].
** On ''[[Animaniacs]]'', Stein tormented the Warners as Francis "Pip" Pumphandle, a man prone to telling very long, very dull anecdotes in a monotone voice while following the Warners everywhere, no matter where they tried to run.
** On ''[[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents]]'', Stein voiced the incredibly dull and boring Pixies, a race of [[Obstructive Bureaucrat|Obstructive Bureaucrats]]s who wanted to make Fairy World as drab and lifeless as they were.
** Stein also counts as [[Hey, It's That Guy!]], having played an incredibly boring teacher/authority figure in productions such as ''[[Ferris Bueller's Day Off|Ferris Buellers Day Off]]'', ''[[The Wonder Years]]'', and the [[The Movie|film adaptation]] of ''[[Richie Rich (comics)|Richie Rich]]'' that starred Macaulay Culkin. Stein is also the only person who could appear on ''[[Married... with Children]]'' dressed in a chicken suit and still be able to publish serious books and articles in financial and political journals.
** He plays an elf tour guide in the CG special ''Santa vs the Snowman'', giving the North Pole tour the excitement it merits.
 
Line 241:
 
* '''David Ogden Stiers'''
** When this troper got into ''[[MASHM*A*S*H (television)|M*A*S*H]]'' in her early teens, it didn't take her too long to figure out [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|Maj.]] [[Dr. Jerk|Winchester]] (that is, David Ogden Stiers) was actually Cogsworth from Disney's ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]'' and Gov. Ratcliffe ([[Talking to Himself|and]] [[My Friends and Zoidberg|Wiggins]]) in ''[[Pocahontas]]''.
** Not only was he Ratcliffe and Cogsworth, but he was also [[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|the Archdeacon]], [[Lilo and Stitch|Dr. Jumba]], and [[Atlantis: The Lost Empire|Fenton Q. Harcourt]]
** He was also Kamaji in ''[[Spirited Away]]'' and Piccolo in ''[[Porco Rosso]]''.
Line 265:
 
* '''[[Tara Strong]]'''
** Tara Strong has done the voice of [[The Powerpuff Girls|Bubbles]], [[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents|Timmy Turner]], [[Teen Titans (animation)|Raven]], [[Kim Possible|um...Tara]] and [[Fillmore!|Ingrid Third]] among many, many others. And that's not even covering the video game characters she voiced such as [[Killer 7Killer7|KAEDE]] and [[Final Fantasy X|Rikku]].
** The similarities between the voices of [[Teen Titans (animation)|Raven]] and [[Tales of Symphonia|Presea Combatir]] are NOT a coincidence.
** That old lady Truffles from Chowder...sounds exactly like Toot Braunstein from ''[[Drawn Together]]'', which is one of the [[Dead Baby Comedy|least kid-friendly shows ever broadcasted]]. (Between Tara Strong and [[Cree Summer]], this trope is arguably the funniest part of ''[[Drawn Together]]'', considering the roles they're famous for...)
** Your contributor has noticed how similar [[All Grown Up!|grown-up Dil Pickles]] and [[Ben 10|Ben Tennyson]] sound.
** And like Kelly Sheridan listed above, she was also one of the 12 little girls in two straight lines in ''[[Madeline]]''.
** [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|Twilight Sparkle]] is [[The Powerpuff Girls|Bubbles]]? Now I'm lost.
Line 277:
 
* '''[[Eric Stuart]]'''
** As the page quote lampshades, Eric Stuart has similar voices for [[Pokémon (anime)|Brock]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Kaiba]], as well as [[The Slayers|Gourry]], though he has a completely different style when he did [[Pokémon (anime)|James]], [[Yami no Matsuei|Wataki]], and [[Kirby: ofRight theBack Starsat Ya!|Meta Knight]]. Ironically, Yami's own VA is quite recognizable in [[4Kids! Entertainment|4Kids]] shows himself (especially when doing the Yami tone), [[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|because he's voiced by]] '''DAN GREEN'''!
 
* '''Kiefer Sutherland'''
Line 304:
 
* '''[[Tomokazu Sugita]]'''
** Given the popularity of both shows on this wiki, [[This Troper]] is honestly astonished that no one else pointed out that [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|StrikerS! Chrono]] is also [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Kyon]] before he did.
** What makes it more funny is that [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Inspector Acous]] is also [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Itsuki]]. That scene where they are eating cake together never fails to make me laugh.
** And then there's that extremely obvious [[Shout-Out]] in ''[[Kanon]]'' 2006...
*** [[Mapi-chan|This troper]] had a fangasm when she watched the opening moments of ''[[ShuffleSHUFFLE!]]'' and heard Mikuru's voice come out of Kaede's mouth. Then she literally exploded when she heard Kyon's voice come out of Rin's.
** Also, [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Kyon]] is [[Gintama|Gintoki]]. Yup - a [[Deadpan Snarker]] [[Ordinary High School Student]] sharing the same voice acting as a [[Sweet Tooth]] Jump-loving [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]].
** And now we have [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Ronove]], whose relationship with Battler completely reverse the dynamic shared by Kyon and Koizumi.
** And he's got white hair, an...interesting sword and gets into comical fights over food with a weird being who has no concept of proper behavior. It's not [[Gintama|Gintoki]] it's [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Ragna the Blood Edge]]!
 
* '''[[Noriaki Sugiyama]]'''
Line 347:
 
* '''Tracy Sutton'''
** [[Willy Four Eyes|This]] ''[[Dynasty Warriors: Gundam]]''-playing troper won't be able to separate [[Mai-Otome|Tomoe Marguerite]] from [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Haman]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ|Karn]], even though the two characters couldn't be any further polar opposites (the former an [[Yandere (disambiguation)|unstable]] [[Smug Snake]], while the latter is a cool-yet-cruel [[Magnificent Bastard]]).
** I freaked out when I realized that she played Executor Selendis.
 
Line 362:
 
* '''[[Yukari Tamura]]'''
** While watching ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'', one might mutter "[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|White Devil]]? Is that you?" upon hearing Mei speak. Both characters were voiced by Yukari Tamura. This troper wonders if the [[Fan Sub]]'s usage of "Speak of the [[Fan Nickname|devil]]" to refer to Mei in one scene was intentional or not.
** [[Subverted Trope]] in that Mei Sunohara sounds nothing at all like [[Kanon|Mai Kawasumi]].
** And then it goes around full circle when [[Yukari Tamura]] voices [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Rika Furude]], whose regular cutesy voice sounds almost exactly like Mei, and her serious voice sounds almost exactly like Mai.
Line 368:
 
* '''Atsuko Tanaka'''
** [[This Troper]] doubts she'll ever be able to watch ''[[Black Cat (manga)|Black Cat]]'' again without expecting Echidna to start [[Beam Spam|Beam Spamming]]ming up the place and calling Creed "[[Fate/stay night|Souichirou-sama]]".
** When [[This Troper]] was playing ''[[Valkyria Chronicles]]'', he was literally thinking "[[Hey, It's That Voice!|Hey, I know that voice!]]" The Captain is [[Ghost in the Shell|the Major]]!"
 
Line 384:
** Watch the original version of ''[[Digimon Frontier]]'' and listen to Takuya's voice. Then listen to [[Naruto]]'s Japanese voice and WHOA!
** Hey, [[Yes! Pretty Cure 5|Cure Rouge]] too.
*** And in the ''[[Digimon Savers]]'' dub, the two newcomers to the series playing main characters also had ties to ''Naruto'': Gaomon is Might Guy and Marcus is Iruka -- thatIruka—that is to say, Skip Stellrecht and Quinton Flynn respectively.
** and [[Monster (manga)|Dieter]] is Naruto.
** And Naruto is also [[Street Fighter|Rainbow Mika]].
Line 390:
 
* '''[[Fred Tatasciore]]'''
** Listen to the voice of [[StarcraftStarCraft II|James Raynor]]'s chief engineer/mechanic/new-unit-provider, Mr. Swann. If you've played ''[[Gears of War]]'', doesn't he sound familiar? That's right, [[Mr. Fixit|Damon]] [[Genius Bruiser|Baird]] is the [[Cool Starship|Hyperion]]'s engineer!
 
* '''J. Michael Tatum'''
** Let's see, he's been [[xxxHolic×××HOLiC|Doumei]], [[Ouran High School Host Club|Kyoya]], and [[Ghost Hunt|Lin]] opposite [[Todd Haberkorn|Watanuki!]] What else is he going to do?
*** The new [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Scar]]?
*** He's [[Axis Powers Hetalia|France]] as well.
Line 407:
 
* '''Jen Taylor'''
** [[Left 4 Dead|Zoey]], [[Halo|Cortana]], [[Super Mario Bros.|Toad AND Princess Peach]] -- she—she was even [[The Other Darrin]] for [[No One Lives Forever|Cate Archer]] -- Jen—Jen Taylor has played a number of iconic characters.
** Recently, she's the voice of the floor announcer for ''[[1 vs. 100|One Versus a Hundred]]''. Having Cortana ask you what the Daikatana ads said John Romero was going to make us was a priceless moment for me.
** Being an announcer isn't new for her. She was also the voice of Sunny Day in the ''[[Backyard Sports]]'' series before [[The Other Darrin|the entire voice cast changed]].
Line 419:
*** Maybe when Chimchar decided to play with him by [[Running Gag|stealing his hat]].
*** She was even joined by Misty (Rachel Lillis)!
** ''[[Seven of Seven]]''. The Nanas. [[Pokémon (anime)|One's Ash, another's May]]. Also doubles as a case of [[TalkingInner to ThemselfDialogue]].
** Plays Amelia in ''[[The Slayers]]'' and Narue in ''The World of Narue''.
** No mention of Leo from ''[[Tekken]]''? I am disappoint.
** And Ash is [[Warrior Cats|a bunch of cats]] [[Omen of the Stars|too]]?
* '''Simon Templeman'''
** For his leads, Mr. Templeman is often typecast to play [[Magnificent Bastard|Magnificent Bastards]]s, for which he usually employs the same voice. It's quite interesting to find out that [[Legacy of Kain|Kain]] not only has a feud going with [[Fantastic Four|Reed Richards]] and a stake in the ''[[Jade Empire]]'' arena, he is also making a bid for the throne of [[Dragon Age|Ferelden]].
** He became a quarian admiral in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'' and also the [[Complete Monster|enormous bastard]], Dr. Gavin Archer.
 
Line 432:
* '''[[Kirk Thornton]]'''
** [[Two Words]]: Kirk. Thornton. This troper has just gotten into the ''[[Gungrave]]'' anime (where he is the dubbed voice of Brandon Heat/Beyond the Grave). All I could think was....[[Digital Devil Saga|Roland]]? [[Samurai Champloo|JIN]]??? Is that you?
** [[Naruto|Kisame Hoshigaki]]? Yeah, he's [[Bobobobo Bobobo-Bo Bo-bobo|Don Patch]]. When this troper mentioned this at GameFAQs, they couldn't believe it.
** This troper had a nerdgasm when he realized [[Tales of the Abyss|Jade Curtiss]] was [[Ace Combat|AWACS Thunderhead]].
** To add to the people from [[Ace Combat]], he also played Schnee 1 in ''Zero'' and the Sgt. McKnight in ''6''.
Line 449:
 
* '''Kali Troy (Kittie)'''
** [[WITCH (animation)|Taranee]] and [[American Dragon: Jake Long|Trixie]] really couldn't be any more different (except for a few [[Character Development|episodes in the second season]]), but it's pretty easy to tell that they're voiced by the same woman.
 
* '''Kathleen Turner'''
Line 455:
.
* '''Alanna Ubach'''
** [[This troper]] was flipping past [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] one Saturday morning and came across a short-lived kids' show called ''[[Teamo Supremo]]'', then heard Rope Girl speak up and yelled, "That's [[Beakman's World|Josie]]!"
 
* '''[[Kana Ueda]]'''
Line 474:
 
* '''[[Cristina Valenzuela]]'''
** Okay, so this VA probably isn't as well known as other examples on this page, but [[Willy Four Eyes|I]] definitely got a deja-vu vibe while playing ''[[Blaz BlueBlazBlue]]'' and joked that [[Guns Akimbo|dual-gunslinger]] Noel Vermilion could pass for a slightly-grown-up [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Nanoha Takamachi]].
** She's branching out, having played [[Dynasty Warriors|Lian Shi]].
 
Line 490:
*** Kari also voices Shellsea and the unnamed snake (in [[The Stinger]]) on ''[[Fish Hooks]]''.
** Also played [[Last Exile|a mail carrier named Lavie]], [[Eureka Seven|a mecha pilot named Anemone]], and [[Witch Hunter Robin|a witch hunter named Robin]].
** And a [[Blood Plus+|Chiropteran Queen]].
 
* '''[[Norio Wakamoto]]'''
Line 504:
** [[Gurren Lagann|Nia]] (pre-[[Time Skip]]) = [[Teen Titans (animation)|Starfire]] (she even talks similarly). It actually works pretty well. Though after the [[Time Skip]] she has an entirely different VA.
** Don't forget [[Adventure Time|Princess Bubblegum!]]
** [[Adventure Time|Princess Bubblegum]] and [[Chalk ZoneChalkZone|Penny Sanchez]] sound... exactly the same. Both hail from shows from Frederator, both hail from shows starting out cartoon shorts shows, and both are ([[Insufferable Genius|insufferable]]) genius female inventors. It took watching both on DVR back to back for me to figure out that they sound exactly alike.
** Let's just say that [[Moe]] is Walch's [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|main forte]].
** Not all of her roles are [[Moe]] though. Case in point: [[The Batman|Harley Quinn]], [[Generator Rex|Breach]], [[Teen Titans (animation)|Blackfire, and Madame Rouge]].
 
* '''Marcia Wallace'''
** Ms. Edna Krabappel of [[The Simpsons (animation)|Springfield Elementary]] might sound familiar to older viewers who remember Wallace as Carol, Bob's receptionist on ''[[The Bob Newhart Show]]''.
 
* '''Jessica Walter'''
** Wholesome mom Fran on ''[[Dinosaurs]]'' was voiced by Jessica Walter, who became not-so-wholesome mom Lucille Bluth on ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]''.
*** And later the impossibly even less-wholesome mother, Malory Archer.
** And long before either, she was the [[Yandere (disambiguation)|crazy chick]] who stalked [[Clint Eastwood]] in ''[[Play Misty for Me]]''.
 
* '''[[Patrick Warburton]]'''
** If you need a badass, he's your guy. Joe in ''[[Family Guy]]'', Brock Samson in ''[[The Venture Bros]]'', ''[[The Tick (animation)]]'', and the animated series version of [[Buzz Lightyear of Star Command]], to name a few.
** Oh, come on -- [[The Emperor's New Groove|Kronk]] is a nice guy -- untilguy—until you diss his spinach puffs!
** He is also your friendly chief flight attendant in the safety video on the Soarin' over California attractions at Disney's California Adventure Park and Epcot.
** [[Kim Possible|Mr. Barkin]] was a [[Hoodwinked|wolf]].
Line 526:
** It was a shock to the system to realise [[Baldur's Gate|Jon Irenicus]] is actually [[Star Trek|Chancellor Gorkon.]]
** On the other hand, Irenicus ''is'' a nice match for [[Batman: The Animated Series|Ra's Al-Ghul]].
** [[Freakazoid!|The Lobe]] as [[Gargoyles|The Archmage]], not so much. They're similar in attitude, though.
** [[Men in Black (animation)|Alpha]], [[Spider-Man: The Animated Series|Herbert Landon]], and [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy|Nergal]]
** Also [[Tron|Ed Dillinger, Sark, and the MCP]] (the former two live-action roles, the latter voice-only, and all those only in the original movie--reprisalsmovie—reprisals of any of those roles tend to fall to Corey Burton).
 
* '''[[Billie Lou Watt]]'''
Line 534:
 
* '''Richard Waugh'''
** Albert Wesker in ''[[Resident Evil Code: Veronica]]'', ''[[Resident Evil 0Zero]]'', and ''[[Resident Evil 4]]''.
 
* '''David Wenham'''
Line 550:
** He was Totoro in the redub of ''[[My Neighbor Totoro]]'' (duh!) as well as the Cat Bus. Plus, he has a role in ''[[Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind]]''.
** Some more obscure roles include Father Time and Fatch in ''[[Histeria!]]'' and Meat in ''[[The Schnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show]]''.
** In one of his most obscure roles ever, he played a demonic banana in ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'', who has Megatron's voice. That's right: '''Megatron as a killer banana'''.
** ''[[Fangface|Ooh! Ooh! What about me? Grr!]]
 
Line 570:
 
* '''[[Mae Whitman]]'''
** Mae Whitman voiced Katara from ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' and Rose from ''[[American Dragon: Jake Long]]''.
** What would Katara have done if she had seen the dragons in Avatar?
*** This troper kept secretly hoping that [[Disney Fairies|Tinkerbell]] would start [[Kill It with Water|waterbending]].
Line 576:
** Once he read the cast list, this troper always pictured [[Arrested Development (TV series)|Ann Veal]] reciting Avatar's opening narration.
*** Her?
** And long before Ann Veal, she was the president's kid in ''[[Independence Day]]''. <ref>While [[Mary McDonnell|the First Lady]] moved on to playing [[Battlestar Galactica|an actual president]].</ref>
** And [[Johnny Bravo|Lil Suzy]].
 
* '''Fred Willard'''
** This troper couldn't help but notice how much [[Transformers Animated|Swindle]] sounded like [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy|the Boogie Man]].
** But its pretty easy to notice how [[WALL-E|Shelby Forthright, BnL CEO]] and Boogie sound the same.
 
Line 594:
** Speaking of Travis Willingham, after realizing he was Roy Mustang, this troper couldn't take Takashi from ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'' seriously anymore, couldn't stop picturing Takashi suddenly shouting to the club "TINY MINISKIRTS!!".
*** That said, hearing Roy Mustang's voice angsting about cavities killed this troper with the hilarity.
** Would you expect [[Blaz BlueBlazBlue|Ragna the Bloodedge]] to say something like that? No? Of course not.
*** Except that's not Travis Willingham, it's Patrick Seitz.
** This Troper laughed his ass off when he heard a modified version of Roy Mustang's voice coming out of [[One Piece|Ace's]] [[FUNimation]]-dubbed mouth.
Line 624:
** [[Digimon Frontier|The Trailmon and EmperorGreymon]] are also secretly related to [[Final Fantasy VII|Yazoo]].
** [[Ben 10|Upchuck]] is secretly [[Kikaider|Jiro]] in disguise.
** Commander Irving Vold Valeria on ''[[Wild ArmsARMs]] Twilight Venom'' sounds like a [[Smug Snake]]![[Ai Yori Aoshi|Kaoru Hanabishi]]. Talk about your differing personalities. Wittenberg joins another ''AYA'' alum on this series; See [[Michelle Ruff]]'s [[Hey, It's That Voice!/I to R|entry]].
** Take one look at Dave Wittenberg's Wikipedia page and see ''how'' many roles he plays you actually recognize as him before reading it. I dare you. This troper somehow didn't even make the connection between Henri and Katsuya before he read it up.
** This troper started laughing once he figured out that [[Star Ocean 3|Cliff Fittir]] was [[Naruto|Kakashi]], [[Xenosaga|Allen]], and [[Digimon Tamers|Henry]].
Line 631:
 
* '''James Woods'''
** [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|CJ]] has to jump on board a plane and kill everyone while it's taking off? Why should he? Oh, [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)|Hades]] told him to. OK then.
** Also, it's creepy hearing James Woods in [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)|Hercules]] after watching ''Videodrome''. For that matter, [[Nightmare Fuel|anything is creepy after watching Videodrome]]!
** It's hard to imagine [[Hercules (Disney1997 film)|Hades]] working as a [[Shark|prosecution lawyer]].
** [[Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within|I KNOW!!!]]
 
Line 654:
 
* '''[[Keone Young]]'''
** [[American Dragon: Jake Long|Lao Tsu]] and [[Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi|Kaz]] have one thing in common. They are short, old, Asian and voiced by this guy.
** Along with [[Dante Basco]] and [[Mae Whitman]], he is another ''ADJL'' alumnus in ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' that makes us wonder "I thought that voice sounds familiar..." (He voiced Jeong Jeong.)
