| I know they signed up for it and all, especially the upcoming voice actors that will take anything they can get to get recognize/exposure/fame, but I do feel for them sometimes while watching shitty anime and dropping it. $ is $ but still.. =/ |

| Not really. It's more stuff to put on your resume. And a paychecks a paycheck. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| It's like feeling sorry for Nicolas Cage. |
| The existence of dialogue in porn has erased any of the limited sympathy I already had for voice actors and actors in general. They've got it pretty good in comparison. |

| why would I I don't think they give a damn about how bad the anime they voice for is it's their job and they get money for it |
 |
| Nope they get money and experience out of it, no need to feel sorry. |
| I feel a lot worse for the composer who writes a great Ost for a crap anime. |

| i kind of felt bad for the VAs for pupa not gonna lie |
 |
| No. They don't care about peeps on MAL anyway. #$ |
 |
| Well, i don't think so... It's their job.. so i think they must do it to get money. But still, i think it will be good if their can improve their talent in great anime instead in crappy anime... ( do you had any examples from great VA who acting in crappy anime?) 0: |
 |
| I don't care for VAs anyway. |
| Not really. They're still getting paid. |
 |
| Have you ever thought that they might not think its a crappy anime? |

I cry every night feeling sorry for them. @ Topic - I can't say I do. My feelings towards a VA are only the result of his or her performance, every other aspect of an anime really has nothing to do with them unless they hold multiple staff positions. Not to mention that maybe from an audience's position it's crappy, but to an actor it could very well be an important learning experience. Right now I'm hearing Miyano Mamoru in a very cheesy low budget ecchi from 2004, which I can guess is one of his early works. They've gotta start somewhere and as they say in Alan Wake, you should take pride in your work no matter how small. |

| You've gotta start somewhere. Both Ayana Taketatsu and Christine Cabanos' first anime roles were as Azusa in K-On but not everyone is lucky enough to get cast as a lead character in such a popular, well made series so early on in their careers. Everyone knows Bryce Papenbrook right? Kirito from SAO, Eren from Titan, Masaomi in Durarara, he's played all sorts of characters in popular shows recently. Many, many years before he got cast in those roles he was the lead character in both Eiken and Green Green. Both of which are near universally despised and are widely considered two of the worst anime of all time. Then again, there's also cases where experienced VAs voice characters in shitty shows. The lead characters in Dokuro-chan are played by fucking Wendee Lee and Johnny Bosch. According to BTVA this was 2010 so it's post Bebop, post Haruhi, post Trigun, post Geass, post Eureka Seven and in a period where Bleach had been on Adult Swim for several years. Apparently the audition scripts for the Strike Witches English dub had a big warning on the front that the show had underage nudity. Not to say all projects of a similar description have the same thing happening, but the VAs should know what they're getting into. As a voice actor, especially in the west where the pay for doing voice acting alone sucks unless you're Tara Strong or Troy Baker, you should be prepared to take on those sorts of projects. If Ayana Taketatsu refused to work on Kiss x Sis or Highschool DxD she would have probably missed out on a lot of money. Speaking personally, if I were cast in a shitty show like Infinite Stratos (Like Josh Grelle who I should mention also plays Armin in Titan) I wouldn't want people to feel sorry for me. I'm getting paid, I'm getting experience and I get to star in an anime series. I mean, how cool is that? Humlon said: If you think it's easy, why not go audition for an anime series? A lot of English dubs re-use actors who they know can do the job well so if you can do it better than them they'd probably love to have you on board.Poor guys, making money doing the easiest job of all. I cry every night feeling sorry for them. Chris Rock, who sounds exactly the same in Madagascar as he does in live action movies and in real life, says voice acting is easy. Someone like Crispin Freeman whose played everything from lonely perverts to immortal vampires (Both of which are very, very different to his normal speaking voice) will give you a very different response. But hey, you can trust who you want to. |

| I feel sorry for Matsuoka Yoshitsugu my boy, a VA of such extraordinary talent, voicing the same character archetype over and over again. Can't blame anyone for hating him, what saddens me the most is seeing his talent getting wasted with generic protagonists. |

| Not at all. They get paid, and they get shit to put on their resume. There is nothing for me to feel sorry for. |

| Seriously, I don't know how that would look to have something like "Mars of Destruction" of "Pupa" on your resume. Or something like "Tentacles lolirape x Aliens 21 uncensored" :') |
