The three voice actors in question that I’m referring to for this hypothetical scenario are Mark Hamill, Steve Blum, and Grey DeLisle. They’re all pretty high profile voice actors, but we most likely won’t be hearing them in any Funimation licensed dub of Dragon Ball. With that being said, if these guys were each to voice one respective Dragon Ball character, who would you choose for each of them?

Grey DeLisle: Bulma
Steve Blum: Piccolo
Mark Hamill: Frieza

Well Steve Blum actually played Goku in Final Bout, so there's that. I've joked about getting him to play Jiren in the Super dub because he has a cool deep voice and very few lines so they wouldn't have to pay him much. But if we can choose anyone from any era...I'd want him to play Icarus using his Guilmon voice. That would be The Best Thing.

I think a lot of people have joked about getting Hamill to play Belmod for the obvious Joker reference, but he's got more range than that and I could see him making a good Freeza.

Finally, Grey DeLisle is good enough to play any of the girls. She would be badass as Android 18.

All three as the Kamikaze Fireballs :thumbup:

Jokes aside;

Blum: Dyspo. I think he plays a lot of super serious characters, I'd love to see him play a more goofy sounding character ala Guilmon
Hamill: Belmod, but NOT with his Joker voice.
DeLisle: Su Roas / Rozie

For Steve Blum, basically any role that needs or requires some sort of charisma, because he's got plenty. Honestly he could've been Freeza himself. He'd probably have to go for slower reads, but his more feminine voices combined with that snakely texture of his, he'd be a deadwringer. And he can do those high pitched shrills no problem, too.

Mark Hamill sounds like an old man now, so it'd be kind of amusing if he played guys like Muten Roshi or Tao Pai Pai. Belmond would be a bit too easy. But he barely does anything, so I think it's kind of a waste. Freeza would work pretty well, too.

Grey DeLisle would work best as most of the deeper sounding girls, except for probably Lunch?

The point of Dragon Ball is to enjoy it. Never lose sight of that.

I love the idea of Mark Hamill as Tao! That would be my choice as well.

Steve Blum: Piccolo
Grey DeLisle: Chi Chi
