Are you forgetting that it's a cartoon? Is it because it's a bit unrealistic? I don't see anyone complaining about Vegeta's English voice, because who the hell talks like that in real life. Or how about a whole boat-load of voices who were miscast simply due to appearance? Just cause he looks like it doesn't mean he should be cast as such. Goku is a kid trapped in a grown man's body. So much for not judging books by their covers.DanielGClapp wrote:Are you forgetting that Goku is not a young boy anymore? I mean I'm cool with the whole idea of Goku keeping his youthful qualities, but seriously, who usually voices grown men? Oh that's right, grown men.
And what exactly do you consider a grown man's voice? Do you mean someone who always talk in a bass range or what? Everyone's vocal chords are different, so who says Goku didn't drop enough octaves? And really if you watched through all of DB you can see just how subtlety the voices gets deeper as the series goes on.
Is it as "manly" as others? Maybe not. Is it feminine? Far from.
