Which cast members have you met?

Super Sonic · Post by **Super Sonic** » Sun Feb 27, 2011 5:04 pm

I think there was something on this topic many years ago, but since it was 4-5 years ago, thought I'd ask, who here has met any DB cast members? Be they the original Japanese, Ocean, Funimation, or in the case of you foreigners whom English is not your native tongue, whoever was in your versions. For myself:

Japanese:

Mayumi Tanaka (Krillin, Yajirobe)
Ryo Horikawa (Vegeta)

Ocean-seasons 1 & 2 (not counting afterwards as I never saw those episodes):

Scott McNeil (Piccolo)
Michael Dobson (Nail)
Lisa-Ann Beley (Chi Chi in at least one of the movies, but not sure if elsewhere)
Paul Dobson (Zarbon)
Brian Drummond (Vegeta)
Cathy Weseluk (Puar)
Saffron Henderson (Gohan)

Funimation

Vic Mignogna (Broly)
Chuck Huber (Pilaf, Android 17, Garlic Jr, Crane Hermit)
Kent Williams (Tao Pie Pie, Dr. Gero/Android 20, Kaioshin)
Eric Vale (Future Trunks, Tournament announcer)
Dameon Clarke (Cell, Bora)
Brina Palencia (Kai Puar)
Todd Haberkorn (Kai 19)

That's who I've met as of this writing, though a few Funimation cast members will be at my local con in a month and 1/2 so will meet more by then.

I've only met Eric Vale and Laura Bailey (who was gorgeous, by the way). It was back when Score did one of their events for the old DBZ card game. They were both really fun people. They had a stack of promotional kid Trunks cards they were autographing, and Laura kept drawing these silly costumes on Trunks for my brother and I, like a wizard hat and robe. I must have about 15 copies of that same stupid card still.

SonGokuGT, you've met a few guys who I would love to meet. Also remembered I had also met Saffron Henderson, but forgot when making the post, so added her.

The only voice actor I've ever met was Monica Rial, and it was way before she was Bulma.

I do love me some Monica Rial, though. <3

I don't get out enough to meet VAs. I did get an e-mail from Wendee Lee (another Bulma voice!) once, but it wasn't DB-related.

I have met,

(Funimation)

Sean Schemmel (Goku)
Vic Monogma (Broly)
Collean Clinkinbeard (Zangya)
Monica Rial
Teryl Rothery (Mai)
Laura Bailey (Kid Trunks) (Probably the nicest person i have ever met and also very attractive)

I will also be meeting Mike Mcfarland (Matser Roshi) in a couple of months.

None. Our conventions don't have any Japanese guests (or American VA's for that matter), and when I was in Japan I couldn't find the official area of Comiket with all the stands of Toei and such so if there were any VA's there I've missed them.

FML.

Masako Nozawa decided to make me her godchild and teach me all her great martial arts and voice acting secrets.

... No, I'm sorry. That's a lie.

But I and a few certain others did get a shout-out from Sean Schemmel when he visted Australia for a con.

I met Ryou Horikawa at last year's Sakura Con. It was the highlight of my anime fandom so far

Also had an amusing encounter with Sonny Strait at last year's Kumori Con (though I didn't actually talk to him). He somehow got talked into participating in a hentai panel, and first thing he did was start offering to autograph body parts. It was hilarious to hear him shouting out in his Krillin voice, "Krillin's signing titties!"

Met-met? Like, actually had a long-form conversation with? Spent time with? Just Eric Johns-- ... er... Vale. Oh, and I judged Iron Editor at AWA once with Monica Rial, but that was long before she was a part of the cast.

Casually met, attended a panel of, possibly said hello to once, etc.? Hrrm...

- Hikaru Midorikawa
- Yuuji Mitsuya
- Sean Schemmel
- Chris Sabat
- Sonny Strait
- and I'm pretty sure Vic Mignogna asked me once at AnimeNext if we had any FMA videos in the AMV contest

... uhh... I think that's it...? I don't typically attend English voice actor panels, so I really have to go out of my way to meet them

. Was foiled out of seeing Mayumi Tanaka once, too (Anime Expo New York) when she couldn't attend at the last minute.

I'd love to meet Sean Schemmel, Chris Sabat and Eric Vale. If I had a chance I'd love to meet Ryuusei Nakao and Ryo Horikawa on the Japanese side of things!

Speaking of meeting VAs... did Masako Nozawa ever attend any US cons? or any cons for that matter....

I don't know if she's ever been to a US one, and know a lot of guys wish she'd be at one, but don't think it'll happen on account of her age. Still, would be awesome if they could do a meeting of her and Sean Schemmel and/or Stephanie Nadolny as I've seen a vid of Luci Christian and her counterpart from Princess Tutu together, and how they tried to have Romi Park and Vic Mignogna together for the Conqueror of Shamballa premiere.

I remember at some convention I went to (in 2007...?), I met Chris Sabat. He saw my badge was "professional" type so he asked what kind of business I was in. I told him me and my friend just got a tax ID and started selling video games. He then went on and on about a company he started that makes.... sound effects? I don't know for sure, I wasn't really listening. Not to be rude I would just nod and say things like "wow, that's pretty neat" or "hmm, interesting". Nothing against him, he seemed like a nice guy but there were people behind me who really wanted to have their DVD's signed by him and it kinda looked like I was eating up his time.

Sean Schemmel and Laura Bailey were there too. Sean pointed to me and did the "can I have the check" signal to me wich was his way of asking if I wanted my DVD signed and Laura Bailey was just smiling and talking to fans.

This was a cell phone pic from right before I went up to meet these guys...

Cast I have talked in person @ Anime/comic conventions:

Chris Sabat
Sean Schemmel
Colleen Clinkenbeard
Vic Mignogna
Laura Bailey
Brina Palencia
J. Michael Tatum - I was probably the first fan to get a Zarbon items signed from him, I knew he played the roll before it was officially announced for Kai & when he played stupid pretending he didn't know what I was talking about he signed my Zarbon card

Cast I've seen in person @ Anime/comic conventions but didn't talked to:

Kyle Hebert
Dameon Clarke
Mike Mcfarland
Travis Willingham
Chris Ayres
Greg Ayres
Kara Edwards

All the rest of the DBZ FUNi cast who I haven't met, I want to meet!

Was that at Supanova? He's been there a couple of times, but I only went to see him once back in 2006.

None.

Absolutely none.

Super Sonic · Post by **Super Sonic** » Fri Mar 11, 2011 12:32 am

Added another one as new eps of Kai show Todd Haberkorn as Kai 19. Met him before Kai premiered and again last August.

ConfusedPhantom · Post by **ConfusedPhantom** » Fri Mar 11, 2011 12:48 am

The only VAs I've seen in person was Sonny Strait (Kuririn) and Steve Blum (Son Goku in Dragon Ball Final Bout), but that's it. Unfortunately, I didn't get to talk with either of them.
