Oh man. This may sound really bad to some people, but I just realized...

Ayres' Freeza sounds almost exactly like Invade Zim sometimes. ^.^;

I don't find this to be a bad thing. In fact, with the right acting, I think Richard Horvitz (the voice actor for ZIM) wouldn't be bad at all as Freeza.

[MR.Mark]

I still hear a little Doc Ock myself, but it doesn't matter anyway. Whatever similarities the voice has to other characters, the most important point is that it suits Freeza PERFECTLY.

Freeza's transformations, especially his final form, are gonna be even MORE to look forward to.

I assume this has to do with Chris changing the voice up without the need of filters correct?

Well based on watching episode 21 of DBZ Kai, I am one of the group who gives Chris Ayres a thumbs up for his performance so far. While I was not quite sure if his take on Freeza was still too feminine but I find that it is only when Freeza is cool and collected. When he raises his voice we get a male smarty pants and when he get's angry, it's actually a bit unerving. Unerving is what we should all expect from Freeza . I look forward to hearing Ayres' take on Freeza's other forms later in the series and when the space tyrant actually get's his hands dirty.

Screw Zim, I realized the other day that he frequently sounds like Captain Janeway, from Star Trek Voyager. Also, re-listening to the voice it doesn't sound quite as bored as I'd remembered from my first two listens. Still not a fan of the voice, but it scores some coolness points for sounding like Janeway.

Now that I think of it, anyone else find it funny that the new Frieza is the brother of the voice of Saiyuki Goku?

[MR.Mark]

watched episode 23:

Some Freeza sexyness near the end, with some nice boisterous "NA-HAHA!" Nakao-like laughs.

[Codarik]

I love Chris Ayres' Frieza. I did like Linda Young's Frieza but it feels like Chris' voice fits the character more than Young's did. Though I do feel sorry for Linda having to be replaced, seeing how it was the most popular character she's ever voiced. At least she still has Fortuneteller Baba.

[Metalwario64]

In the latest episode, Ayres' Fri­eza kept shifting between the raspy Newstone impression, and his more Nakao performance. I wonder if it's intentional, but either way I really wish he would be more consistent and stick with the more gentlemanly Nakao-esque performance.

[MR.Mark]

I've been downloading the Nicktoons eps for repeat views and I dunno. I just hear creepy Freeza myselff, no Newstone to me.

[Ishtar318]

We get more taste of Chris Ayres' angry Freeza:

"This is your mess YOU find him!"

I think that about sums it up.

[jjgp1112]

Holy shit, he sounds REALLY bad when he's screaming in those two clips. Yuck. He sounds like a grandma.

[batistabus]

I'm not getting any grandma out of that. It's high pitched rasp, which is reminiscent of an agitated Nakao.

What program that you use to download it?

You need to talk to different grandmas.

[Kendamu]

Holy shit, he sounds REALLY bad when he's screaming in those two clips. Yuck. He sounds like a grandma.

Yeah, but you have to remember that if it's not Linda Young you're going to hate it, anyway. So you might as well make due.

[penguintruth]

Holy shit, he sounds REALLY bad when he's screaming in those two clips. Yuck. He sounds like a grandma.

Because a lusty, chainsmoking transvestite fit the character so much better, amirite?

At least Ayres has made some steps away from Pauline Newstone, and his delivery is better.

[Gaffer Tape]

Hmm, I'm still very much on the fence when it comes to this new Freeza, and those last two clips certainly haven't done much to sway me in either direction. But I'm still loving that Zarbon. I love when his voice cracked on the word "ship."

[ohaimynameiserik]

I'm with Kendamu and penguintruth.

Don't bash the new Freeza and say it sounds like a grandma while even faintly having the mindset that Linda Young's Freeza was any good whatsoever.
