| Whenever a girl has a high pitched chipmunk voice I get nauseous and almost have to drop the whole series if her character is important. Whenever I hear a voice like that, it feels like I'm being stabbed repeatedly in the heart! What to do? How do you guys feel about them? Do you find it attractive? Some guys must surely do because it's so common. |

| I've gotten a bit more used to it but I used to really hate it. I still dislike it. I like lower voices and I think an adult or teenage woman with a voice as high-pitched as the average anime chick is very rare. |
 |
| no it turns me on nice examples btw tbh fam |
 |
| The only female voices in anime I tend to hate are those of arrogant mature women. |
 |
| It doesn't bother me really. It all comes down to the personality for me, but an annoying character with a voice that sounds like they huff helium all day, definitely makes them even more annoying. |
 |
| Yes, I hated Kotori from Love Live because of her voice, now Im used to it, still I dont like it. |

| Twitter and it's consequences had been a disaster for the human race |
| Since I rarely watch high-school comedies, I don't hear those voices all that often. If the show is compelling enough, and there is some variety in the voicings, I can watch it. Lucky*Star, AKB0048 and The Idolm@ster are good examples. However a show like this season's Hackadoll became unwatchable by the end of the first episode even though it's by Studio Trigger. |
| Only when they cry. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| It's annoying, yeah. |
| nope, i don't mind them. |
 |
| No, not at all. |

| Ogura Yui. Enough said tbh. |
 |
| It really depends how high I guess. I know a lot of likeable high-pitched VAs and Seiyuu, but I also know many unlikeable ones too. |
 |
| It can be really annoying, yes. |
 |
| Depends really. Yuno Gasai (At least her Japanese VA, I love Brina Palencia) is annoying as shit but I like Yui Ogura and Aya Uchida. Same goes for Stephanie Sheh and Monica Rial (Although they both have a fantastic range so I prefer to hear them play more diverse characters). |
 |
| Only when they say "watakushi", "desuwa", and "hohoho" repeatedly i would flip out my table. |
| Yeah it can turn me off a show if it's too annoying |
| Sometimes, but rarely, I usually like it, I find it cute. |

| Brace yourself. Soon as LotGH 2017 comes out. The anime community is going to become so cancerous you will need to take cover and hide. |
| Most of the time it is extremely annoying. |
| To be honest I'm sort of 'picky' when it comes to high voices. I like high voices that aren't the forced screechy or nasally kind, but if it's not a naturally high voice I loathe it to the point that I've dropped animes because of it before now. I almost stopped watching Kuroshitsuji because of Lizzy as one example. Her voice gives me migraines. |
 |
| It depends, in a more serious anime it can honestly kill a character for me. In others...it doesn't really matter much besides it being possibly annoying. hated! this first time, after third it was stuck in my head and I liked it lol |

Never heard that one :S I can't really blame her for 'trying too hard to sound cute' though even if it did bother me. Most actors who play those sorts of characters (Stephanie Sheh being one of them) sound more like their lower range characters in real life. But the high pitched voice that Rial uses for most of her characters is remarkably close to her speaking voice. |

Her highest range certainly is high for an English VA, especially her Mio or Index, so I see what you mean there. Not your everyday Seiyuu high, but high nonetheless. |

| I know afew girls irl who have high pitched voices and get made fun of for it. But it really doesn't bother me high voices can be cute. I mean just imagine if every anime's voice actors deep or just plain bad >.> |
| Yes, Hayao Miyazaki has claimed these actresses unnatural, that's why he prefer new actresses in his movies |
| It is so dense. Every single image has so many things going on. |
| Yuuki Aoi a shit I can tolerate Kugimiya to a certain extent though Also some high pitched voices are okay in songs Remv_quevav said: I actually like itinb4 YUKI bashing [yt*]k7dNlDzIDNM[/yt] Oh w8, no one knows about her here |

Joekstar said: Depends. I think the same. By example, Rie Kugimiya can be insufferable when she uses her high pitched voice, Mine's voice in Akame ga Kill was also very irritating and the voice of the pig from Nanatsu no Taizai was fucking annoying. However, I like the high pitched voice of seiyuus like Chiwa Saito or Kaori Nazuka. At the end is all a taste matter. |

 Hate them, her particularly. I had to mute the anime when she was speaking.. |
| Japanese people love it to death, Baka Gaijins hate it to death. /Thread |

| Holly fucking Donald Bojanggles, i thought i was the only one. It's so god damn Irritating to me. I literally cant stand it. |

 This one almost perforates my poor eardrums, but there were just a few times I found a high pitch voice annoying |

| Generally it doesn't really bother me. If it fits the character like a young person or a loli, then it's good. It's when a character that seems to be mature has a high pitched voice that's a problem. It just feels so out of place that you just can't stop thinking about it. |
RodrikZen said: This one almost perforates my poor eardrums, but there were just a few times I found a high pitch voice annoying It does not surprise me that you find her pitch annoying, she is voiced by Tomoko Kaneda, the queen of the high pitched voices, just look this information about her: Her typecast is usually that of the young-child, due to her cute, young and high pitched voice. In fact, it has been reported that her voice is capable of producing sounds at a frequency beyond that of human hearing. She says in her blog's introduction, "My voice hardly changes even if I breathe in the helium gas". She has more than 40 years btw. |

| No unless they "sing". |

Although there are exceptions, mainly Monica Rial who uses the same voice as Index for Mirajane but still manages to make it work. But like it was said earlier what's high pitched for her isn't exactly Kugimiya, know what I mean? |
