Masako Nozawa back-to-back SON Family Acting
Masako Nozawa back-to-back SON Family Acting
I really thought this was interesting and decided to share, just to honor her ability and skillset to voice so many different characters in the SON family.
Re: Masako Nozawa back-to-back SON Family Acting
How the heck is she able to change the pitch of her voice so rapidly
Also, if it isn't any trouble, can someone tell me how long she's been acting? I find it awesome she's been doing TV appearances since the frickin' 80s. I think the LaTAM actors have made a few TV appearances as well. Have any of the Funi actors done interviews or TV appearances? I could've sworn they were on GMA in 2014 or somethin'.

Apparently she has been acting all of her life, since age 3, according to the always reliable Wikipedia.Bansho64 wrote:Also, if it isn't any trouble, can someone tell me how long she's been acting?
She turns 80 this October, what a fantastic talent.
Re: Masako Nozawa back-to-back SON Family Acting
It truly brought a smile to my face witnessing how quickly she broke into her Goku character with that signature, hearty chuckle. She deserves her legendary recognition. To have discernible range like that with the same voice type is such a talent to behold.Crinchy wrote:I really thought this was interesting and decided to share, just to honor her ability and skillset to voice so many different characters in the SON family.

I'm someone that you could call a "Johnny-come-lately" when it comes to appreciating Nozawa's contributions to Dragon Ball, as well as her talent in general so for most people, this quick shift in range probably won't surprise them but it does for me. I'm now just realizing just how distinct her Gohan is from her Goku. Pretty darn impressive stuff.
Re: Masako Nozawa back-to-back SON Family Acting
It's crazy how she can switch on different characters and tones on a drop of a hat. It's really hard to go from high pitched to lower pitched, without missing a beat or preparing in between.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

That was a really cool clip.

Re: Masako Nozawa back-to-back SON Family Acting
I made a comment in another thread and it really applies here, too:
Nozawa, despite voicing several male characters in the series, always seems to bring a distinctive tone with each different male character she voices, whether it be Goku, Goten, Gohan, Bardock and Turles. This gonna sound weird, but even during scenes when Adult Gohan, Goku and Goten would be talking to each other, their voices always sounded so distinguished and different from each other.
