Ryo Horikawa speaking English well

Wow, he's actually pretty good for not having English as a first language. I found this through boredom on YouTube.

Of course Captain Falcon has good english!
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]

Ah crap! I didn't even notice how I wrote the title. I'm going to change that and my mistakes on the intro sentences too.

EDIT: Done, I guess. I hate when I don't catch mistakes like that.

I wonder if he could do an English Vegeta voice.....
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Yes he speaks English well does he not. I am no grammar nazi or anything, but that was just asking for it. I don't know why I just think that if you are English speaking you should make some kind of effort. Mistakes, are find every once in a while however. :wink:

I've heard him speak in Vegeta's voice in english once before; but I don't have a link to it.

Either way, Mr. Horikawa is awesome and my favorite Vegeta VA. X3

It still shocks me whenever I remember that he also voices the Captain. Simply awsome. I wish I could find a video of him doing a Captain Falcon voice.

Well, he's like the opposite of Vegeta in real life, but that's always a good sign of an actor. If he keeps improving I'd think he could pull off a good Vegeta in English had he ever the chance.

Who taught him English? Christopher Walken?

It's pretty awesome, It's a rare thing to see such a great seiyuu speaking English.
