Voices of the "Hero" characters in Ultimate Blast-Tenkaichi

Post by TheGmGoken » Sun Dec 08, 2013 3:05 pm

Sorry if this been covered before but I could't find info on them. So do anyone know about them? Who are they? Do they work for Funimation or are they local or cheap voice talents. Same goes for the JPN audio. Are the voices well known JPN voices or are they just local talent.

I would ask about Latino but.....I'm not sure if they dub their games(Didn't they dub the Tenkaichi games?)

The site 'Behind the Voice Actors' has just about everything you might need to know on this.

Hero (Childish)
English: Luci Christian
Japanese: Sayaka Hirao

Luci Christian is quite iconic in English dubbing with lots of major roles in popular and fan favorite titles. Sayaka Hirao though, seems to be somewhat newer. Oh, and I want to say Luci did a few background roles in Kai, but nothing of note.

Hero (Cocky)
English: Marcus Mauldin
Japanese: Kota Nemoto

Both of these guys seem to be fairly new from what we can tell here.

Hero (Cool)
English: Ian Sinclair
Japanese: Atsushi Kisaichi

Ian Sinclair is quickly becoming a major player at FUNimation, and it's worth noting that he's the one rumored to be Whis in Battle of Z. Atsushi Kisaichi has done a fair amount of work, and most notably here - he was Oob in GT.

Hero (Crazy)
English: Bryan Massey
Japanese: Kenji Akabane

Bryan Massey is still somewhat new, but he's done a pretty good amount of work. Notably, he's our new official voice for Oolong. Akabane has a handful of roles but nothing else Dragon Ball.

Hero (Energetic)
English: Josh Grelle
Japanese: Miyu Irino

Josh Grelle has done a lot of work too, but nothing else for Dragon Ball. Irino has a fair few roles too, but again, this is his first/only Dragon Ball work.

Hero (Evil)
English: Joel McDonald
Japanese: Masakazu Morita

Joel McDonald has done a pretty good amount, but I wouldn't call him a major player. Masakazu Morita is very noteworthy though, not only being the main character of Ichigo in Bleach, but he's also been both Table and Whis in Dragon Ball stuff.

Hero (Silent)
English: Jason Douglas
Japanese: Masaya Takatsuka

Jason Douglas has done a lot of work, but most notably for us is the fact that he's the new voice for King Cold. He's also the one rumored to be Beers in Battle of Z. Takatsuka hasn't done quite as much work and this is his only Dragon Ball role, but I guess it's worth noting that he was the Blue Dragon in the anime based on the game, and that's a game Toriyama did designs for.

Hero (Teenager)
English: Leah Clark
Japanese: Aiko Hibi

Leah Clark has become a major player at FUNimation, but her only other DB role is being the re-dub actress for Maron on the Season Sets. Hibi...seems to only have done other work for One Piece besides this, so she's probably a Toei stock actress.

Haha, well in my defense, I haven't seen Seiya. Or read any of it really. I know what it is and what it's about roughly, but never really gotten to give it a go, so...my bad. ^_^;

Well to be fair he was merely replacing Toru Furya so it shouldn't be shocking that people don't immediately picture him in the role.
If you're not here soon... GET ON!
