No but a good Seiyuu can make me like a character more.


I asked this question before I think, but do people like Tsukiyama from Tokyo Ghoul because of his VA?
I dont think thats all the reason but yeah i do think some of his popularity come from being played by a very popular Seiyuu

Yes, Skuld's voice is cancer. I have heard her seiyuu voice another character though and it wasn't as annoying. I think Skuld's seiyuu specifically uses an annoying voice for Skuld.

The name KENN sounds familiar...I think I saw his picture on one of those seiyuu pages on FB and all of the fangirls went crazy because he is cute.

EDIT: Okay he's in Brothers Conflict as Futo!

Jesus Yamato from Gundam Seed, but to be honest his voice was just the cherry on the icing on the top of the cake that was his hypocritical, whiny, poorly written mess of a main character.

No but it may contribute to it. If the characer's good enough then the voice doesn't matter. The main character of Fly High has the voice of Shinpachi from Gintama who I found annoying and it bothered me for a little while but I eventually got over it. Sasuke's voice for Shirou in FSN made me dislike him more though.

Yuki Kaiji's performance as Issei in Highschool DxD annoys the shit out of me. I hate him as a character but above all else I can't stand his voice. I know that for a fact because as soon as I switched to the English dub he became instantly more likeable from the moment he opened his mouth.

That might have also been a result of how much funnier the script is in comparison to the bland, derivative ecchi humour in the original but seeing as that's going a bit off topic I'll just say Scott Freeman did a much better job of emphasising his endearing traits.

I agree with this. I tried to watch DxD subbed but I didn't enjoy it. I really liked the dubbed version of this show. The script for the dub was hilarious and like you said the dubbed VA did an excellent job as Issei. Good job Funimation!

Btw, I don't dislike Yuki Kaji at all.

When I was 11 I tried watching Fruits Basket and I couldn't stand how this male character Yuki Sohma's voice sounded too much like a girl's (yes it was a female voice actress). I tried to bear with it but was constantly turned off by how feminine he sounded, I eventually dropped the whole series because of how much it was getting on my nerves.

So let's say there's this generally cool character and you actually quite like them and all. Has it ever happened to you that you couldn't totally 'fall' for the character because the seiyuu's voice/work just didn't sit well with you?

If yes, please do give examples of characters or their seiyuus. I'm curious.


Of course. I actually give an anime one less point for its rating then I would have given it for a character with an annoying voice. :)

same here. it's why i personally dislike a lot of girl characters. not because of their general character but because the voice acting for them is so high-pitched it makes me angry
