Character themes

Post by Flamzeron » Thu Feb 25, 2010 12:20 am

Since Vegeta, Dende, and Krillin all got character themes for DBKai, do you guys think that any other characters, who didn't have any themes at all, will get character themes?

Personally, I hope Takeshi Kusao (Trunks' seiyuu) sings Hikari No Willpower. That would be so badass, in my opinion.

I'd like to hear adult Goku sing. Maybe a humorous duet w/Vegeta?

Seconded.

On a semi-related note: Why in anime like Dragon Ball Z and One Piece do the voice actors sing songs in character?

As I mentioned in other threads... I'd definitely want a song by Trunks...
Maybe also a song from #18 to Kuririn or something. Either that or a song from Kuririn to #18. Would be sort of hilarious.

A song by Saiyaman about Saiyaman would be awesome too.

Why wouldn't they be in character? The CDs are just merchandise for the series. And the target audience is generally little kids, who are probably a lot more interested in hearing Vegeta sing than plain old Ryou Horikawa. Though actors often do release their own unrelated personal albums where they sing just as themselves.

Ok cool, that makes sense.
