But I wonder, who's gonna voice Gowasu? I already once said before that I would love it if Steve Kramer voiced him, but he doesn't work at Funimation. So, when we're talking about somebody who works at Funimation, or even someone who doesn't, but has been on their dubs, who should voice him?

FUNi recently got some Non TX folks for their Gosick dub (which is fantastic btw) such as Erica Mendez as Avril, so nothing is out the realm of possibility.

Ok, but that has nothing to do with my question.

You said you wanted Kramer but then said he doesn't work at FUNi, all I'm saying is you shouldn't rule that hope out since they're slowly starting to get some non TX people in their dubs.

Matthew Mercer is playing Hit?! YES!! That is PERFECT! I am soooo happy about this casting.

Also, whoever predicted that Daman Mills was going to play Monaka deserves a cookie.

Nope, it was Aaron Roberts but Sabat recasted Hit for Super likely due to the fanbase's reaction to Aaron's voice for Hit

I don't think it was because of the fanbase's reaction, it was probably because when they actually got into the Universe 6 arc, they thought Aaron's voice didn't fit, but for consistency's sake, they had to keep Aaron in Xenoverse 2 for the DLC.

Since no one mentioned it, Clifford Chapin and Greg Ayres were also confirmed to come back as Cabba and Frost from XV2 for the Super dub.

Which I'm happy about. Especially for Clifford Chapin because, the guy is amazing as Cabba in Xenoverse 2.

In the words of MasakoX in his discussion of Schemmel's first Goku Black voice with Geekdom101, it's a game, they can patch it if they change the voice. They might still have some DLC planned for adapting the current arc when it's done like the Future Trunks Arc, which would be very interesting to see, especially since we'd get a ton of new characters showing up. In the event this happens, they could easily have him rerecord the dialogue already there, like Nolan North replacing Peter Dinklage as the Ghost in Destiny, & record the new dialogue.
It's like Boruto being voiced by Maile Flannigan like Naruto in The Last movie, then in the movie, and eventually the show, he's now voiced by Amanda Miller. They had her voice him in UNS4 after Flannigan had already recorded stuff for him, so they replaced the voice clips (though, personally, I don't think Miller was the best pick for him, especially over Flannigan, so this is a reverse case of this from a meh actor to a good one for me).
Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

I disagree, I asked Roberts if he was gonna play Hit in Super aswell once the dub got announced he said he wasn't sure, likely he was just filling in.

Also Hit was never recast, XV2 is not Super.

Good that Matthew Mercer is voicing Hit.

On the other the guy who is voicing Frost, Greg Aryes...isn't he the one that has that really fruity voice? I've heard it in many shows because I watch a lot of dubbed anime and he usually always voices the little girly and wimpy boy character.

He already voices Frost in Xenoverse 2. Kinda sounds like a mix of Frieza and Jaco.

He voiced Guldo in Kai but yeah he usually does get typecast as wimpy boys lol. At first I wasn't sure about him playing Frost but I think it works, I'm glad it isn't Chris Ayres cuz Frost from another universe should sound different unlike the Japanese no idea why they stuck with Nakao.
