Voices of the characters you don't like.

[HokageMassashi]

I was just wondering what voices you like and dont like.
I hate Gin's voice. Zaraki's voice is not the best. Ichigo's voice is ok. Urahara's voice is not bad. Byakuya's voice i think is good, but not as good as his japanese voice.

[Kagebu]

Love = Ichigo, Kon, Orihime, Yoruichi, Keigo

Not Bad = Urahara, Kenpachi, Byakuya, Ukitake

Hate = Ichimaru, Renji, Ishida

Those are all the voices that made an impression on me. I might be forgetting some others. Chad's voice has no emotion and he can't act, but the voice itself is dead on, so I have no idea where to place him. I'm also indifferent to Rukia's voice.

[DireCry]

I like Rukia's, Ganju's, Ishida.

I dislike Ichigo, Orihime, Renji.

[Raeoki]

I hate Ichimaru's and Renji's. Other than that they are all decent. Not as good as the japanese voices but still good.

[tracysw]

Yourichi's voice is soooo far away from the original as to be totally wrong to my ears it just doesn't work doesn't have any power to it.

[Guy]

Love=Kon, Karin, Urahara, Ganju

Above average=Zaraki, Zangetsu, Ichigo, Rukia

Hate: Byakuya, Ichimaru, Renji

Everyone else's ok.

[Livius]

Love= Aizen, Ichigo, Chad,
Ok= Ishida, Orihime, Urahara, Kon, Ganju
Hate= Gin, Kenpachi, Byakuya

[Angel_shikigami]

Renji and Ishida. Ishida is so whiney in the english and Renji sounds like a drill sargent.

[bluec5834/IchixMatsuxHime]

I like ichigo and ishida and orihime and tatsuki and chad renji's voice was horrible and so was ganju's and ichimaru's zaraki's actually fits his personality

[Triddy]

Like: Chad, Ichigo, Aizen
Dislike: Renji, Ishida, Orihime

[The Dragonlord]

Most of the voices are good, although some are just inexcusable.

Love: Ichigo (I mean, it's the same voice as Vash), Chad, Urahara, Yoruichi (cat form), Rukia, Aizen, and Ganju

Not bad: Byakuya, Orihime, Tatsuki, Kon, Ishida, and Zaraki

Just bad: Ichimaru, Jinta

[bluec5834/IchixMatsuxHime]

Yeah cause the black power ranger from the first series is the voice of renton and the voice of vash. didnt know about ichigo though

[VinScythe]

Isshin sounds too childish, it's hard to believe he's actually serious sometimes, really, ISSHIN YOU GOTTA HIT PUBERTY QUICKLY! Well Renji might need a little work but I'm sure the va will quickly blend into that classic Abarai style.

[Zaenos]

Voices that I like better than the Japanese originals: Byakuya (I mean, he sounds a lot like Kratos Aurion from ToS, and that fits him perfectly) Ganju (personally, I think the Japanese voice sounds annoying), Urahara (I just don't know why, it just sounds better to me), Kon (see Ganju, same reason)

The same: Ichigo, Rukia, Chad, Yoruichi (cat form), Zangetsu, Orihime (well, kinda. I don't hate it, but I don't really like it)

Ones I think they got wrong: Gin (Not sly like a fox sounding), Kenpachi (C'MON, man, it shouldn't be that hard to find an English voice that sounds like the Japanese), Renji (too high pitched), Ishida (dear god, he sounds so whiney)

[Semprini]

I dislike Renji, just doesn't fit for me, and Gin, it sounds to sophisticated (but we'll see in future episodes)
everybody else seems to be doing a good job

[theblack_dragon]

ok let see
like - Ichigo, Kon, Orihime, Yoruichi, Keigo, Ichimaru, Byakuya

hate - Renji, kenpachi and hmmmmmm gotta think about the rest

http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/382/vaizard8rt.jpg

[Steve2k]

unlike everyone else i like Gin's voice he sounds sly and mischievious, i do like the japanese version better but i think they did a good job on Gin, but they could of done better

[Slasher]

Personally, I'm really not into Renji's voice and Ishida. Aside from them, everyone else is ok.

[Matt-san]

I like Ichigo and Rukia's, but the worst I would have to say is Renji. He sounds awesome on the Japanese version but the best on the english dub

[Kefka]

I HATE..no wait, DESPISE Urahara's voice. He sounds like some punk kid, not the great mysterious shinigami that he is. Jinta's is also horrible.

[II Xion II]

I am going out of my way to comment on this thread, that is how pissed off I was with Gin's voice. It's wrong, so wrong. I like some of the voice actors in this anime (especially Ichigo's), but Gin's was the worst. It was a massacre to my ears. I am so ashamed I might have to change my avatar and my sig. ;)

[metalkupo]

Here's mine:

like - ehhh... can't think of any that are impressive.

adequate - Ichigo, Urahara (on the borderline of hate), Kon, Orihime, Yoruichi, Ichimaru, Byakuya, Ganju

hate - Yoruichi, Ichimaru, Byakuya, Renji, Kenpachi

Any character not mentioned would probably either be adequate or like. I haven't watched all the dub episodes so there may be some important liking or hating missing.

Kinda sad that the more interesting the character, the worse the VAing.

[themicahman]

i dont mind any of the dubbed voices.
all anime's to are worse dubbed except for DBZ series and this

[Kyoko<3!]

Which voices do I not like????

Hmmm...Everyone's.

[ToastRhapsody]

Is it just me or is Jinta's voice very......VERY childish.

And I'm gonna cry when English episode 27 comes out..because Ikkaku's and Hanataro's voices will come up.
I'll just go listen to Hanataro's voice once...and maybe scream.

[Wanderweiss]

I hate Ichimaru's voice, its not menacing enough. :(

I also hate Kon's voice, its really annoying... but I like all of the other voices. :) Especially black ranger-kun Ichigo

[Alyson]

Ishida, Ichimaru, Renji, and Kenpachi.

Ally thinks Ishida's voice is really hard to dub. It's supposed to be dorky + chivalrous + shy + determined + oozing with Quincy Pride all in one, and only Ishida's seiyuu can do that. :o Ally was also hoping to hear Ichimaru sound as creepy and sly as he is, but his voice lacks the edge to it. Renji and Kenpachi's just doesn't fit.

Oh, and, Orihime's voice ish sorta okay, but it could be better.

Love Ichigo's, though. <3

[Kagebu]

Is it just me or is Jinta's voice very......VERY childish.
And I'm gonna cry when English episode 27 comes out..because Ikkaku's and Hanataro's voices will come up.
I'll just go listen to Hanataro's voice once...and maybe scream.
Apparently Hanatarou is going to be Spike Spencer and Ikkaku is going to be voiced by Vic Mignogna. They're in good hands, and I have to say, these sound like very nice casting decisions, although I'm curious as to how "punk" Vic can sound. Spike, on the other hand, is going to make the perfect Hanatarou.

[ToastRhapsody]

That reassurance better be true.
Although I am curious about Ikkaku's voice now that you brought it up....

[Abarai-Renji]

I like all the Japanese voice actors, however, as far as the dubbed voice actors, I cannot stand Ganju, Gin, Kon, or Isshin.

[Tsuki Garyuu]

It's just what I like and what arn't so bad

Me like: Ichigo, Rukia, Uryu, Byakuya, Kinsuke, Karin, Ukitake
Me kinda like: Gin, Renji, Hisagi

Personally, I'm beginning to like Gin's voice better. His accent kinda fits Gin's style. Renji's voice is rather impressive. He almost sounds like Ichigo which shows their alikeness. What I'm worried about now is Hitsugaya's. It's REALLY Steve Staley casting him!

[.Rik-uh-shey]

wtf Yourichi sounds like a dude!?!?!?

[Seilin]

I love Ichigo's voice most from the whole Bleach dub and I really can't get used to the VA for Ishida >_< I think it's too deep still and the rest is really ok, but some is also very good some times.

@Xx13thApOsTlExX- I'm not sure if you are talking about the cat Yoruichi but even though I stopped watching a few of the recent dub episodes, I'm pretty sure the real form Yoruichi didn't appear yet. Yoruichi is suppose to sound like a "dude".

[DireCry]

wtf Yourichi sounds like a dude!?!?!?

wtf you only just noticed?

[theblack_dragon]

im saying u cant believe that he only just noticed that

but yea ichigo has a great voice it does match him and his japanese VA who ever that is

[EndlessSky]

I was surprised at Ichimarus voice. I expected him to talk country and all.

[Hitsugaya2080]

Hate: Gins, Rinji's, Hitsugaya's(haven't heard too much of it.. but.. so far XP) Chad
Like: Ishida's, Orihime's, Ichigo's, and Kenpachi's

[Alyson]

Hitsugaya's voice s-u-c-k-s! :< Granted, he only said a few things so far; but it still sucks. Ally was hoping for Brianne Siddall, if her voice isn't perfect for Histu, then at least it's a hundred times better than it is now.

[Liete87]

I was surprised at Ichimarus voice. I expected him to talk country and all.Seconded I was expecting a sarcastic southern accent.

[reiko2]

for me ... i hate the voices of Ganju , Kenpachi (he can't scare me with that voice) Renji and Aizen (probably)

[higgamo]

liked: Kenpachi's Chad's, Aizen's

dislike: Rinji's, Ishida's

[SoundWave]

Dun like hitsugaya's voice...

[InsanesnakeShinigami]

Man, I like all the voices except for Gin!

I expected some country hick that sounds like me!

[Sakura_Drops]

<3 Yoruichi and Renji's.

</3 Ichimaru's.

[EndlessSky]

He also kinda took the fun and "finesse" out of when he knocks ichigo back out the gate with shinsou and says like "Bye then" instead of that "Byeeee Byeee" voice that was so great.

[Vash002]

Like: Everyone except....
Dislike: Renji and Ishida
:winking56

[Yūki Miaka]

Hate: Yoruichi ( in cat form), Renji, Inchigo, Ishida, Byakuya
Everyone else is ok

[Hiyuu Tatsuma]

i dislike Renji, and Hitsugaya's

[DarkShadow]

Hate: Hitsugaya's (even though he didn't say much, i still don't like it), Ganju's, and Ishida's
Likes: Ichigo's, Renji's, Urahara's, Rukia's, Orihime's, and Gin's

[ReaperChik22]

Love: Urahara, Ichigo, Zangetsu, Aizen
Hate: Ichimaru
the rest are alright. Urahara's just awesome, I love his Urahara, he brings out Kisuke's personality perfectly.
Ichigo, John's voice work just rocks, he's so talented. He just makes Ichigo more 3D for me, he can play out all the emotional angles.
the first time I heard Zangetsu in his scenes with Ichigo, he gave me goosebumps.
Aizen- I love Kyle's voice overs, even with just the small amount of stuff from Aizen so far, his voice has given him so much personality, at this point you really can't see that aizen's evil.

[gchrono]

The voices I dislike are Gin, Renji, and Ishida.

[millsholla]

like: Ichigo, Rukia, Kon, Renji, Byakuya, Urahara(the best so far)
ok: Ishida, Yoruichi(in cat form)
dislike: ganju,kenpachi,and gin

[SageOfHalo]

While I won't say I hate it, the VA for Urahara I think is just not as expressive as their Japanese counterpart. Example, when he's comforting Ururu after she is all upset about giving Rukia the wrong stuff, the Japanese voice sounds really fatherly, concerned, etc. Whereas the dub voice just sounds nasaly. Not sure why. It just sounds to me like regardless of the situation, the dub voice sounds the same, whether it be mad, amused, cryptic, witty, fatherly, business-like, etc. a little variation would do wonders there...

Ichigo's voice: awesome

Orihime: not bad... could be better, but tolerable. again, the Japanese VA has a broader vocal range for different situations

Gin: I don't know what I was really expecting, but what I hear certainly ain't it. W. R. O. N. G. Gin needs to sound like he could skewer you and roast you over a fire just as easily as he can be friendly to you. The kind of charming voice that would come from the devil himself.

Hitsugaya: not quite there... I can't place my finger on what's missing, but his voice just isn't working for me...

the rest are ok. Nothing outstanding for me, but tolerable.

[Zero™]

Only watched first few episodes but Ichigo's voice kinda annoys me because its the same guy who voices Vash the stampede off Trigun and when ever i hear it it kinda makes me think im watching trigun but im not :/

[supratt232]

yea i dont think ichigos voice matches...it should be a lot deeper and have more feeling. the way it sounds now he seems way too happy and light hearted. maybe thats just me.

[Kagebu]

Yeah, it's just you. Actually, more like a small percentage, because most people I've noticed who watched all of the dub so far have warmed up to Bosch as the perfect Ichigo. I also think he's the best dubbed character on the show.

Not to mention, it seems alot of people really wanted some sort of harcore, badass Ichigo, but that's not really what Ichigo is all about. He's just a guy with a short temper is all. I don't get "too happy" from Bosch's Ichigo, either. Ichigo is still quite grumpy in the dub.

Anyways, time to update. I'm not going to reiterate my previous list, because nobody's moved around on it yet.

Love (new) = Yachiru (KARI WAHLGREN!!!!!!) Matsumoto, Hinamori, Iba, Aizen (still need to see him do a warm, caring scene, but so far I like it), Ganjuu

Not Bad (new) = Mayuri (could use a chill pill), Ikkaku (lose the growling), Yamamoto (could sound more like an angry old man)

Hate (new) = Hitsugaya (too old sounding), Soi Fong (too perky, too high, not old enough)

I'm still indifferent to Yumichika, though so far it's not all that bad. I still need to hear more of it. Same goes for the other captains.

[h0f5]

bosch does quite well, but his voice just sounds the same nomatter what he does, unlike the japanese counterpart. But he's ok

I HATE urahara. His voice is done horribly in the dub, it just sounds disgusting. Urahara in the japanese version sounds awesome. The english dubbed one isnt even average.

[Toutaku Chuuei]

i hate Ichigo's dubbed voice...it suxors

[supratt232]

i hate Ichigo's dubbed voice...it suxors

lol at least im not alone

[Yūki Miaka]

Kinda hard to say now... I mean i stick with the original post of dislikes but i have goten so used to the subbed version that the I don't really like the dubbed version. My opinon only.

[SLVR]

Gin- I mean they took away his dialect..... they make him sound to high pitched. They ignored his sarcasm and make him look more devious. It sux

[Guy]

Gin sounds like a nobleman, if you ask me. It's improving, but I really wish they gave him a low-class, slangy accent. It doesn't seem to fit Gin's casual character.

[Sting Rae]

I don't really like any of their voices :D

[.Kozmic]

Ichigo's voice I thought is pretty suiting for his character, the same goes for Orihime.

[theblack_dragon]

ok ikkaku VA is real bad i hate it. it just doesnt match his JAP conterpart

[Delaguardia]

Ya I know what you mean. I don't like that they picked Vic Mignogna to play ikkaku. That voice isn't right for him even know Vic Mignogna is a good voice actor.

I love ichigo's voice because I grew up watching that voice actor on tv. He was on the second season of Power Rangers. I hate Renji's voice so much. I wish they got Steven Jay Blum's voice from Samurai champloo he was Mugen. I think that would be a great voice for Renji. Zaraki's voice is okay but it would of been better if it was the english voice of chaser on one piece. I'm not sure about the rest of the bleach cast.

[Mugen]

^ I agree Steven Jay Blum did a really good job on mugen and would do good as Renji also.

I think that Byakuya and Hitsugaya`s voices aren`t up to par in the dub version.

[Hanabira08]

I really don't like any of the voices in the American version. I tend to only watch the Japanese version on youtube.

[Delaguardia]

ya I watch the japanese version of Bleach to. Though I kinda think it's a little annoying to half to read the subtitles.

[Guy]

I'm gonna add another one to the list: Hanatarou. His English voice sucks, and it doesn't suit him at all. I'm a hanatarou fan, and I'm apparently disappointed.

[MishaSan]

Hanatarou's voice cuz it sounds like im watching im Neon Genesis Evangelion. I think he should have changed his voice a little bit so it doesnt sound like Shinji.

[zarakiscars86]

i dont like any of the voices for english bleach..in japanese it sounds more raw and more of where it came from.i thought watching jap would suck but it rocks :)

[Candyholic]

I'm not really fond of Hitsugaya and Soifon...

[KellY767]

All that I know is... That i HATE Rukia's, Renji's and Ichigo's voices. Byakuya's is probably the best ive heard.

[Delaguardia]

oh come on how can you hate ichigo's english voice. I think Johnny Yong Bosch's voice is perfect for Ichigo.

[theblack_dragon]

i agree ichigo's VA is great and rukia VA is nice as well my biggest problem is ikkaku i knew there was noone who could get that voice close to the jap VA

[metalkupo]

Ikkaku isn't too bad. Although after experiencing the agony which was Kenpachi and Gin I might just be willing to accept average VA more willingly.

[zabuzza]

for the like 10-15 episodes ive seen dubbed i hated pretty much every voice i heard

[MaskedDrifter]

These are how I rank the voices.

Awesome: Jidanbo, Ikkaku

Pretty good to decent: Yamamoto, Ichigo, Tessai, Aizen, Ukitake, Tatsuki, Ganju, etc.

Neutral: Rukia, Chad, Byakuya, Yumichika, Yachiru, Grand Fisher, Zangetsu, Ganju's sister, etc.

Don't like: Orihime, Ishida, Zaraki, Urahara, Kon, Keigo Asano,

Hate: Gin, Hitsugaya, Soi Fon, Shunsui, Don Kanonji

So yeah, that;s how I break it down.

[FullMetalEnvy]

I hate them all explicitly Yachiru and Mayuri Ichigo's and Ishida's are ok and Yumichiki's suck to now really why watch the dubbed version when u can watch the subbed version

[T_Ichigo]

lol I like Byakuya's the most and Ichigo's voice reminds me about a character from power rangers :D
Azien's also nice one

[the ghost]

kenpachi's voice wasn't as good as i thought it would be. i'd expect him to sound a lot more crazier, like with the "i want to kill everyone" tone.

[ichigo547]

lol I like Byakuya's the most and Ichigo's voice reminds me about a character from power rangers :D
Azien's also nice oneThe voice actor of Ichigo, Johnny Yong Bosch, was the Black Power Ranger.

[Edgey]

The worst voice in the dubs is rukia's voice.

The best voice however has to go to Urahra, it just sounds so cool!

[Arei]

I really dont like Yachiru's voice that much... it just doesnt click with me.
Byakuya's bothered me for awhile but I got over it.
Renji's doesnt feel right either, but i guess its not THAT bad.

Gin however.... X_X Ruined his character/personality. Sounds better as a hick xD

[the ghost]

yeah, renji's voice has been bothering me for a while too, but after so many eps. u just get used to it.

[Xazz]

I think most of the voices sound pretty good. I do agree that they did a terrible job trying to match Ichimaru's voice with the Japanese version. Ishida, Chad and Tatsuki's voices are good. Zaraki's voice seems to fit pretty well with his personality, although it doesn't sounds too much like the original voice.
I'm more or less satisfied with the voices over all. I liked Hanataro's voice, heh.

[Edgey]

Chad's voice is excellent, it just goes with him

[FullMetal Rebel]

i hate them all

[Pyro-Fiend]

I used to not like Ichigo's voice over... But that was because I used to watch the Japanese versions before Bleach came to YTV... So I suppose I wasn't used to it.

I personally don't hate any of the voice... I find a lot of them just add a touch of humor to it XD I always laugh at the goofy voices

[elzee]

i dont like Ichigo, Orihime, and Renji us voices

But i fell like running a screw driver through my leg when i hear Yachiru

P.S. i like to be over dramatic :D

[FullMetal Rebel]

Mayuri's worst by far.He is suppose to be an eerie type of person.His dub voice ruins it by making him sound like a jackass clown

[skandluz]

I've only seen the first four episodes dubbed so far, but here goes...
Like=Ichigo, Orihime, the Hollow voices (but really, how can you screw those up?), Rukia (though for some reason I thought she'd be better off with a British VA), Don Kanon'ji, Chad (I thought the VA was perfect)
Dislike=Kon, Urahara
Regarding the casting which was less than perfect, it's possible that some VAs who were approached to do a character for which they would have been perfect may have declined.

[Shinigami K]

Ichigo, Kon, Orihime, Yoruichi, Rukia are pretty good. Urahara, Kenpachi, Byakuya, are ok, not completely horrible but not the best The worst of all is Renji. I love the character but I seriously hate Renji's voice.

Everyone else didn't really make an impact on like or hate.

[diamondedge]

I really really DON'T like Renji's voice... at all. It just doesn't have enough sexappeal, like Renji's Jap VA has. :)

Ishida soulds like 10 year old g33k.

And Byakuya's voice isn't deep enough and doesn't suit him at all.

I like Orihime though, Ichigo's actually isn't that bad.

[Rhea]

Gotta say I was very dissapointed in Renji's, voice did not suit him at all. Also Byakuya, sounded meh...

And finally Rukia not like the Rukia we know and love, too mechanical.

[Sobre Hielo]

I like all the voices. A lot of people dislike Renji, Ichimaru, and Kenpachi's voices and I don't really know why.

[catdatho]

I only liked Uraharas and Ichigos Byakuya's voice isn't deep enough and doesn't suit him at all. I Completely agree with you

[averybrightman]

Ishida soulds like 10 year old g33k. [...]
I like Orihime though,

Ishida is suppose to be a geek isn't he? He wears glasses. He also thinks he's MJ with that one glove. Don't forget that he is a loner. And finally he sews for fun!!! I think they creators wanted him to be dorky when he isn't in his quincy mode.

Orihime has a cute voice. I think whoever did her voice was great. I acutally know someone who acts like Orihime and she has a similiar voice.

[sirhchris]

I've just watched the japanese episodes (with english text) think thats the best way.. dub just looks sooo bad! ;P

[sadozaraki17]

Besides Renji's, I personally hate the voice-over for Zaraki Kenpachi. The English Dub lost his Blood-lust sound to it...he is my 2nd fav and the guy who voiced him ruined his character for me,so I'm sticking to the Japanse with English Subs WAY better voices for everybody honestly.

[Twinky]

byakuya, he sounds kay. that all i have to say, other than that every one else is decent, and yes zaraki lost his battle tone in his voice, aka sucx

[crescendo]

I don't think Zaraki's voice is bad, but regarding his "lack" of bloodlust, he hasn't had the chance to show that off yet. Just wait until he fights Ichigo, it should come out more then.

[xcandixlux]

Personally, I think they all sound horrible, sry xD They sound waaay better in Japanese ^.^

[Hinagiku]

I like all the voices. A lot of people dislike Renji, Ichimaru, and Kenpachi's voices and I don't really know why.

Because he sounds somewhat robotic. Or, as my friend puts it, like a nerd.

My absolute least favorite voice is Gin's. Ugh. Also don't like: Renji's, Ganju's, Yachiru's, Kon's, Kyouraku's. (Plus a few others)
I'm kind of in the middle about Hitsugaya's. It's too old for him, but the acting itself is decent.

[WhyteDragon]

Renji and Hitsugaya's voice in Japanese are so sexy compared to the US version. Mayuri didn't sound sexy or mysterious like it does in Japanese, kinda Blah. Byakuya and Zaraki are I'll need to hear again to see what I think of them... Though I do think they need more to them... its like they are missing something that we all have noticed in the non dubb epys.

[Goddessfreya]

Orihime's it's just too damn annoying...I'll grab that darn voice box of hers and squish it to oblivion...it's too irritating...like a broken can or something

[girdragon]

i think renji's and Orihime's voice sounds kinda werid. in fact almost all animes turn to english sound kinda werid so i only watch them in japanese :)

[Monkey_man]

i hated histhuugya's(10th captin) and Urahara's they both suck

[Infinite]

I hate Ichimaru Gin's voice...it just sounds like crap to me. Way better in Japanese...

[\/AiZARD]

For some reason renji's voice just doesn't fit his character

[Kenpachi-Dono]

even though it's been said i hate Renji's and Ishida's voices that sound way to americanized lol..and i hated the edited content..the words they changed they make it just egh i'll stick to RAW and Subs

[II Xion II]

Gin's, it's atrocious!!!

And Hitsugaya's seems wrong as well.

[suburbanhell]

It's funny, the first 16 episodes I saw were the dub version, but now that I've seen the real thing I can't go back, all the voices suck to me...except for Ganju's, that one is actually pretty accurate.

[XeroRecoil]

I like Ichigo's, and Rukia's.

[Aleister]

I just have to say as far as the dub goes the voices are as good as the sub except ichi and rukia (imho) are better in the dub.(see: rukia actually sounds like a girl in the dub)

[granamonkey]

I dont like Renjis, Ichimaru's, Zaraki's, or Byakuya's voice. everyone else, I dont really mind. Orihime is pretty bad also I think.

[Deivi]

the only voice they really changed was Ichimaru, he still keeps the sly/sarcastic/evil tone in dubbed but I just cant picture him talking in english with a southern accent. Maybe if he sounded like Val Kilmer's Doc Holiday it would be cool but I dont speak any Japanese so his accent in Subbed is lost on me anyway since I wouldnt even know he did have an accent if not for the subtitles.

[Hells Bells]

Gin's is kinda weird. Urahara's is ok. Not that I watch the subs so that I could compare the voices, but those two kinda bother me.

[UryusPetBunny]

Love=Uryu, Ichigo, Urahara, Renji,
Hate=Uryu, Hitsugaya, Gin, Aizen
Ok=Rukia Kuchiki, Chad, all are O.K., Kenpachi, Momo
Weird=Hitsugaya, Kon, Orihime, most others, Hanataro
Oh sooo Sexy=Uryu Ishida, Ichigo Kurosaki, Renji, Urahara

I love all the sexy voices sooo much, but I think they could be better. Hitsugaya's voice was ok, but it needed sexyness in it, he sounded like more of a brat than anything. Orihime sounds like a prissy, and Hanataro could be alot better, though its cute. I think Gin's was terrible it was U G L Y, it did not go with his character at all. I think Urahara's voice is very sexy, but it's missing something. Renji's sounds alot like a common voice, though still sexy. Kenpachi's definetaly fits him. Momo's was just plain childish. I've only watched dubs, so I can't really compare.

[Hells Bells]

I like Kenpachi's voice. It's pretty badass. Only thing is that it's kinda strange for me sometimes because David Lodge does Jiraya in Naruto:Haha I think Yoruichi has a sexy voice:biggrinlo

[UryusPetBunny]

Awesome....... Did you just say you're David Lodge?
Oh I think everyone's voice is sexy in a way.....

[Hells Bells]

Awesome....... Did you just say you're David Lodge?
Oh I think everyone's voice is sexy in a way.....
Typo:rolleye09

[UryusPetBunny]

Oh, you got me exited for a second. LOL. I just hope that the other future characters voices wont be so bad.

[d00m]

there all good but i love Kenpachis, Chads and Byakuyas the most. i hate Uryu when hes just talking, but when pissed, then its awesome.

[pidgett]

Hmmm...I'd have to say I dislike Chad (nice tone, but not the inflection I'd imagine) and Orihime's (just annoying, and not sweet like it should be) voices, but considering some of the things I've seen dubbed, I think the quality is ok and mostly the ages seem to match up. The biggest thing I don't like about anything dubbed is the cheesy sound fx they add in to replace the original. At least, I hope they're replacing the original stuff!

[supratt232]

I think they missed Shunsui's personality and voice a bit. Maybe not so much the voice, but he doesnt seem as laid back as he should be.

[Alexander4]

good = ichigo, rukia, orihime, chad, uryu ishida , ganju ,hanataro, yoriuchi, kon (quinton flynn is kon), aizen
bad = byakuya, renji, ikkaku, madarame


Gin Ichimaru? Many disagree with me but I think his english voice is FAR better than his Jap voice. Fits him much better.


btw, i know i spelled alot of names wrong

[UryusPetBunny]

hmmmm. sorta true actually.... In the dub Ichimaru's voice is sexier I dare say. chad's voice is cool, but the tone is always the same in all situations, even if he's scared or happy or whatnot.

[drzjthan]

The only 1s i dislike is Renji's=because he supposed 2 sound badass not high pitched
and Captain Hitsugaya=I mean he sounds nuttin like his japanese voice,atleast make a kkid speak 4 him

[UryusPetBunny]

That's true........... I bet they picked the voice crew in like 15 minutes from outta the street........... I wish they would consider the character's personlities and voices in Japanese when choosing the voices in english.

[Bladecatcher]

hahhaah. wow. i think most of the charater's voices are weird and don't go with them. like, when i read the manga and then started watching the anime, i was like, 'wtf?' i seriously didn't expect them to sound like that. lol
the voices that i really don't like:
orihime, rukia, chad, byakuya...the list goes on.
but on the other hand, the voices i really like are ichigo's, uryu's, ichimaru's, kenny's, renji's, urahara's...and last but not least, hanataro's!!

[UryusPetBunny]

LOL. Hanataro's voice is cute :biggrinlo . I also think that Aizen has a good voice, one of my favorites too. It just goes with him very well.....:headbang

[Bladecatcher]

@uryu'spetbunny:
yeshhhh! :biggrinlo
and hahah. i forgot bout capt. aizen. his voice is so calming and soothing.
:face82: i could fall asleep to it

[enchidna_happ]

I don't like Rukia's voice but renji's voice is alright

[Reco]

I don't think Kira's voice fits. It's too strong.

[KnownSoldier]

Overall, I like the English voices for Bleach. Ichigo, Ishida, Kenpachi, Urahara, and Gin are the best IMO. I dont like Orihime's voice, I dont like squeaky voices. I have just recently started watching Japanese episodes with English subtitles, and I think that Urahara's and Gin's voices are un-comparably better in the English Dub.

[Tobi]

I don't like Byakuya's just seems.. lifeless..

[Rhea]

Byakuya sounds like a robot...Ishida's is TERRIBLE doesn't suit him at all!!! That and Orihime sounds like she is 5. Ugh, but overall they are not that bad. Ichigo's is perfect!1

[SupraSpeed]

i don't like hitsugaya's voice. dunno why, just doesn't sound right to me

[Aleister]

For anyone who like's ichigos' english VA (Johnny Yong Bosch) here is his band eyeshine http://www.myspace.com/eyeshine

[KholdStare]

I think THE worst voice has to be Gin. Gin is supposed to sound cheery and giddy but he just sounds terrible.

[Outlawz]

What to you expect from a lifeless character?
Ishida's is TERRIBLE doesn't suit him at all!!!
How, he sounds like a big nerd, which he is.

Orihime sounds like shit in English and Japanese.

You have terrible taste is VA's

[Kitsune_Ghost]

I liked Ichigo, Ichimaru, Byakuya, and Hitsugaya's voice. But I hated Orihime, Jinta, Karin, and Yuzu's voices...they were annoying to me. And Isshin sounded too childish. Everyone else was ok.

[Saithe]

I personally do not favor Ichigo's voice, it just sounds off. To be honest, I don't think I like many of the English voices at all...Chad would probably be one of the few that I would place on my Like/Consider Decent list.

Renji, byuakua, gin, kira, momo.. they all are horrible, even when renji showed up he said the name freaking wrong.. abeera renji is what he said instead of abari renji lol

Do you care to elaborate on why htey suck, or is it just because "JAPAN IS SUPERIOR!!!11"

[Aleister]

Outlawz... I think the world is gonna end. For once I agree with you. And yeah it does get annoying with all the "it was in Japanese first, so they do the voices better." bs.

[Juujika]

Do you care to elaborate on why htey suck, or is it just because "JAPAN IS SUPERIOR!!!11"

Well Renji i hated just purely on how he says abari renji, plus it just doesn't seem to suit renji's rough style. Byauka i didn't like mainly because he reminded me of a drill sgt. Momo.. well, basically i have a thing with names.. why couldn't they stick to himaori instead of calling her momo all the time?

But i started listening to the japanese VA's first so i know what the characters should sound like somewhat, i enjoyed Urahara's voice since it was playful. Other then that the english VA's seriously need work.

oh and chads voice is good too

[Kurita77]

Yea i have a probem with renji's voice.

[Outlawz]

Well Renji i hated just purely on how he says abari renji,
Pronounciation of the name has nothing to do with how the voice sounds.
Byauka i didn't like mainly because he reminded me of a drill sgt.
The hell?
Other then that the english VA's seriously need work.
No, they don't. The only one I think sounds a little funny is Hitsugayas, but it's not horrible.

[Aleister]

Just because the japanese voice sounds a certain way, does not mean that the voice must always sound that way.

[KholdStare]

You have terrible taste is VA's

I would have terrible taste in VAs, not VA's.

I don't understand why you would even say that. Gin sounds like VERY stupid in the english version. But I won't go to the extent of actually saying that you have bad taste. Why not? Because it's rude.

[Outlawz]

Gin sounds perfect in english, probably one of the best dub voices.

[Juujika]

Just because the japanese voice sounds a certain way, does not mean that the voice must always sound that way.Voice actors can make or break a character and anime. The japanese have voice acting as a serious thing, and there voice actors are alot.

In america you can listen to one voice actor and pick his voice out of 5 different shows, Like they'll use a guy that used to VA on digimon and the idea doesn't cross there mind that his voice doesnt belong in a serious anime because of the voice acting he did before.

In the Bleach dubs have you found a voice actor with a accent? and i mean a real accent. I loved how chad's VA he sounded like he would be from mexico while speaking japanese. Just in general the voice actors for bleach in japan fit the characters alot better then in the dubs.

Hopefully they won't screw up any voices in the HM arc.

Oh and yumichika was also a good voice in the dubs same with ikkaku.

[+Byakuya+]

I like most of the VAs but I have a problem with a few. I don't really like Hitsugaya's as much for it sounds a little too muture for him and his jap. VA, it sound really good. But I can live with his. I also have a big problem with Kyouraku (sp?), it just sounds terrible and I hate it. ><

Other then that, I like mostly everybodies VA and think they are doing a pretty good job on the dubbing. I love them at least.

[Aleister]

meh... I still don't think the japanese voice has anything to do with how the american voice should sound... I feel as long as the voice fits the feeling of the character, its fine. I think people typecasting voice actors is downright lame...


no if you have a legitimate concern like the Quality of the voice actor... see the show Tenshi muyo! the va's(when using acronyms it is common to use apostrophes to seperate the plural s from the acronym) lacked feeling. I wouldn't say that I didn't like the voices, I disliked that their was no emotion to their voice when there should have been.

[silverwolf801]

I dislike all of the bleach character voices because they don't even sound close to the subbed voices

[Saki Tsuzura]

They're not supposed to sound like the Japanese one's because they can't be copied. It may be possible for them to somewhat copy the tone of the voice, but not the actual voice itself. Anyway, I guess the only voice I'm not to keen on is Kyoraku's.

[April_San]

I'm alright with the english voices..but Gin's voice is crap and some others are crap too but thats just the point..english isnt suppose to sound like japanese

[Saithe]

How is it off? His voice fits him perfectly, I'd say his English VA>Japanese VA. IMPOSSIBLE, I know.
My personal problem with Ichigo is that when he gets angry or something, he just doesn't sound like he wants to win badly enough when compared to the Japanese voice. In the Subbed, his voice sounds a lot rougher to me, in my opinion it is more fitting for his voice.
Though on the flip side, if I had watched Dubbed Bleach episodes from the beginning, I would have no problems with his voice. I just think that it could be a little deeper or rougher for the most part.

On another point, I agree that how they say things shouldn't affect whether or not you think they are good, but I really wish the actors would say Japanese words a little faster..."Let's all go down to the say-ray-tay, yeeha."

[Outlawz]

I'm alright with the english voices..but Gin's voice is crap and some others are crap too but thats just the point..english isnt suppose to sound like japanese

Wtf do you people think a character like Gin is suppose to sound like?

[Gettles]

Honestly, the only one who really didn't impress me is Shunsui. Really, he bombed all of his "light hearted/silly lines"

[Wacer]

Renji, Ishid and Byauka are all voices that i dont like. Each of them just dont seem to fit their characters for me. For the rest of the cast i think they are ok but still they are a little ify at times. I just too accustomed to the Jap VA to really get a fell for the dub

[KholdStare]

Gin sounds perfect in english, probably one of the best dub voices.


Gin doesn't sound good at all in english, probably one of the worst dub voices.

Thank you for saying what I wanted you to say. I did exactly what you did. I said it sucked without giving any reason whatsoever. In fact, I have given a reason before as to why I didn't like his voice. You have yet to provide any reason why you think it fits well. In fact, I provided a reason twice.

I've yet to see your reason. Gin's dub voice has a deep, cold, mocking tone tone to it, just like what he should sound like. What do you think he should sound like, some kind of hard ass?

Just because the Japanese VA sounds cheery and giddy, doesn't mean it's right. Gin should in no way have a cheery voice. Deep, cool, calm, condecending, and mocking fits him much better. He's not all happy go lucky, he just likes to make people feel like shit.

I never used his japanese voice as a comparison. I said that his perpetually smiling face does not suit a deep voice. The most mocking tones are those which sound friendly but are in reality just caustic and sarcastic. He doesn't have to sound like "a gay cowboy". You can have a male voice which isn't as deep you know.

Not at the beggining no, but once you realize he's an asshole who loves making people feel like shit, it really fits. Him crushing Rukias hope is one of the best parts of the series.

So if you didn't really want to know that he was a bad guy or in any way showing hostility, don't you think that they should pick a voice actor who has a very kind voice? If they started him off with a cold, condescending voice as you said the voice actor has, don't you think it gives something away about him? A person who has a kind voice but indirectly condescends you is the most irritating voice. That is why I don't think that Gin's "deep, condescending voice" doesn't suit him.

The only time I ever read Gin with a cheery voice was hios very first apperance, mainly when he said "Bye Bye" from behind the gate, but the way his character develops, his current voice suits him.

If you've read the manga it wouldn't really matter, but lets say you haven't. Just because he has that kind of voice doesn't make him evil. Not to mention the first time he's introduced is really the only time he's not being suspected.

Well, I personally think the first time he was suspicious was when he met Rukia on the bridge. Before that, we knew nothing about the characters of the captains and when they accused each other of letting the ryoka go, we had no idea who to suspect.

I don't know why we are arguing anymore. It isn't like your opinion is wrong and mine is right, they are just different. The only reason I continued this was because you attacked me personally which is a no-no in argument.

You like his voice and I don't, it's as simple as that. I just didn't want to be attacked personally for something which is 100% opinion with very little "evidence" to support it.

Once he got *****ed out for letting Ichigo get away, you had a feeling something was up. Anyaway, it's just a matter of opinion I guess.
