To all complainers about Kon's voice...

[Kanadian Kyuubi]

Let's not forget this very important detail:

When Ichigo is fufilling his Soul Reaper duties, Kon (the modified soul), sometimes is placed inside Ichigo's soulless body to fill in for him when the real Ichigo is working. Let's note, you say that Ichigo and Kon sound simliar? Don't forget, it has to look like that when Ichigo is doing his job, the Kon powered Ichigo is normal, so it's good that they have simliar voices (so they can be passed off correctly).

There, is that going to stop your complaining?

[shaoxiong]

they sound different actually.

[Buuhan1]

They need to stop *****ing "kon sounds so annoying!" NO SHIT! Hes suppose to! He doesn't sound annoying ENOUGH in the japanese version.

[LegendaryXM90]

No, no, no, Buuhan. His voice in Japanese is the true essence of annoying. (I think he's actually played by KT himself).

[Buuhan1]

I find his voice tight in japanese. Didn't know it was Tite-o. (Nickname I made up on the spot)

[LegendaryXM90]

Yeah, because when I was watching the Bleach Musical the announcer (KT) was talking, I know because he said his name, and I was like, "OMGWTF that's Kon!".

[Buuhan1]

No, Kubo Tite is not Kon.

[LegendaryXM90]

Oh, well....umm....SHUT UP! Lol, jk.

I couldn't find the Bleach Musical on Youtube that had the beginning with the announcer in it, so I won't know for a little bit.

[pylar]

KT does Kon's voice in the first OAV. :D

[Angel_shikigami]

Well his jap voice sucked big time. The english was supriseing, but I didn't hate it.

[Winter-war]

kon was voiced by KT in the first ova

[pylar]

I just said that :P

[ProtoFunc]

Well his jap voice sucked big time.

What??! are you kidding me? I'd rather have it no other way >.<

Anywho, to the first post: emmm.. no, not really. The japanese kon sounds like a humorous kind of annoying, the english one just sounds genuinely annoying. Which... is annoying.

[Kesumi]

Kon's Annoying Yet Interesting Voice Over is Fine in the Dub if you ask me :o

I Mean I just watched old eps of subbed bleach last night and i thought Japanese Kon sounds Less annoying in japanese than english.

[urusai!]

Come on guys, let's remind ourselves that the guy who played Kon tried his best. *shrug* It's not very, very bad. *nods*

[Damier]

It'll only improve as they adapt more to their characters' personality.

[Iro]

I actually think Kon's character is funny, it is also the voice of the actor that makes Kon's character more interesting, I have no problem whatsoever with his voice.I think when Kon is inside Ichigo's body he should sound like ichigo but the way he speaks should be similar to kon.

[LegendaryXM90]

I wonder how the english VA will get Kon's whiny voice made perfect by the Japanese VA down...

[Damier]

I only heard Kon's English voice for a few seconds, and it doesn't sound that bad.

[ichigo547]

I'll admit that Kon's voice was different than the Japanese version (obviously) but the fact that I prefer dubs and subs (not that much though), it didn't affect me at all. Besides, Kon is supposed to sound annoying, and that guy accomplished that.

[InsanesnakeShinigami]

I love the japanese version of kon. and come on the dude in english said "cone"

[aibyouka-kun]

What bugs me is that they call him CONE, his voice i don't mind. Its goofy and crazy, fits his personality just as well as the japanese voice.
I would go on but this isn't the place to XD
At any rate, it's impossible to have a dub with all perfect voices so.. heck, the Bleach dub is 150% better than the Naruto dub, "Believe it!" XD
Although I've gotten used to japanese voices, i still like english (my native language, how can i betray it? :winking56 ) voices. Saves my eyes the burden of reading subtitles and trying to watch whats going on at the same time X3

[ichigo547]

I love the japanese version of kon. and come on the dude in english said "cone" Actually, that's how you're supposed to say it, believe it or not. Kind of like Ichigo. We say it i-chi-go except the vowels have a short sound to it, making i sound like e. a sounds like ah, e sounds like eh, i sounds like e, and o sounds like oh. Anyways, for all of you that don't like Kon's voice, you just complaining and I'll just keep ignoring.

[Ichigo-Kurosaki]

Well i liked it. Its really gotten better. I think itll stay the same. Stop this shit! His voice rules !

[Sciky]

I have no idea why you're all saying the english version is pronouncing his name as Cone, its obvious that's just Kon trying to sound cool, the other characters will call him Kon and I don't think Kon himself will keep going "Cone!" everytime he says his name.

[hasuke]

No, no, no, Buuhan. His voice in Japanese is the true essence of annoying. (I think he's actually played by KT himself).

Wrong. Kubo only voiced Kon in the Memories in The Rain OVA (in which the only lines where "eh?" and "nee-san?")

In the anime, it's someone else. And eh, Kon's dub voice kinda buggered me cause it was...odd. It'll probably be better IN SHOW considering ya know, it was just a preview. I love how people ***** about how he pronounced the name though. hahahaha, lern2japaneseplx.

Kohn-pah-koo. Soul. Kon's nickname is Konpaku cut short. henceforth, it's pronounced like the word "cone"

THE MORE YOU KNOW~

[NekogaaruAmber]

Regardless of how Kon pronounces his name, the important thing is that his lines will be very close to the original and not chopped up like certain other animes... *cough Naruto cough cough believe it cough*
When you think about it, goofy pervs shouldn't have a "cool" sounding voice :winking56
Can't wait for Ep 2!!! :D

[Winter-war]

I just said that :P
oh really...ok kool

[hasuke]

Regardless of how Kon pronounces his name, the important thing is that his lines will be very close to the original and not chopped up like certain other animes... *cough Naruto cough cough believe it cough*

FOR THE 909027529832657823TH TIME, BELIEVE IT IS THE ACCURATE TRANSLATION....believe it!

[CurlyQ1989]

I much prefer Kon's japanese voice... It's probably because I'm so used to the japanese voice, but the japanese VA was really good at getting Kon's voice perfect... I don't know if the english VA will be able to live up to it ^__^

[OMGWTFitzBEN]

Also, you only heard his voice for like, what 5 seconds? Just wait until you see the actual episode starting him. -_-;

[InsanesnakeShinigami]

Well i liked it. Its really gotten better. I think itll stay the same. Stop this shit! His voice rules !
:shithappe :Haha

[Kzimask]

Kon aint annoying though, hes voice makes him funny....

[the ghost]

although it was for a brief moment, kon's voice sounds strange. i dunno, maybe its because we're used to his japanese voice. -_-

[Nrvnqsr Chaos]

They need to stop *****ing "kon sounds so annoying!" NO SHIT! Hes suppose to! He doesn't sound annoying ENOUGH in the japanese version.
not trying to starts a fight, but its not annoying, its flat out crap

[Chichiri97]

Was playing that Bleach video game, had a promo video of the voice actors, seems that the Japanese guy that does Kon's voice is going to kill his vocal cords very soon. Whoever does Kon's voice, I gotta give props, its like the most annoying voice ever that's vocal cord straining...

"It was that one moment, a tiger! I turned into a tiger!! Superdynamicblahomghesaysitsofastshoooooot!!! GOAAALLLL!!"

Studio people: Can you do that again?
Kon voice actor: I think I just coughed up blood...

[Angel_shikigami]

I liked it, it was just odd because I'm so used to the subbed voice

[The_lone_sprit]

Kon's voice isn't that bad and i don't think its annroying i think its kind of funny and in the Dub he sounds kind strange

[*Hollow*Ichigo]

i dont bother watching the dub version but if they really really REALLY messed up kons voice den....FGRRRRR

[Arekkusu]

His voice isn't that bad. Perhaps they wanted there to be a difference between an american pervert's voice and a japanese pervert's.

http://orihimeschest.ytmnd.com/ ;D

[Nrvnqsr Chaos]

o.o...............................boobies......... ..

[DarkCut-Lucky]

i love Kon's vioce, but it doesn't fit him when he is in Ichigo's body, but when he's in the loin plushie, i dont think his voice could be more perfect. Anyone who doesn't laugh when he yells "NEE-SAN!!!" needs to get a better sense of humor.

[DarkCut-Lucky]

His voice isn't that bad. Perhaps they wanted there to be a difference between an american pervert's voice and a japanese pervert's.

dude...do u need to pay to keep that site/page up?...cuz idk, i laughed, but u might wanna like um...not pay if u have 2 =P

...oh crap...sry for the double post =/

[Arekkusu]

I didn't even make it, I just found it and thought it would be enjoyed here. But no, YTMND sites are entirely free.

[Captain BenZ]

They're both annoying, to simply put it.

English and Japanese.

[Aarom12]

I never watched the Japanese version, so I can't compare, but I like Kon's voice in the English version. The voice actor for Kon is also the same one who did Iruka in English Naruto.

[ichigo547]

Kon's voice is awesome. I like it more than the Japanese voice of him, but the Japanese voice is good also.
