I run to Gakuen Heaven for shelter, and who's doing the love interest's voice?

Not to mention I've loved FFVII since it came out when I was 11.

I love him the most as Yuuri though, because that is who I've grown used to the most, since Kyou Kara Maou is 95-odd episodes strong and still going.

Seriously. Mayumi Tanaka does his voice exactly how I imagined it when I was reading the manga. She makes him even MORE adorable than he already is.

The Funi dub does a fine job, and his English VA even sounds kind of like Tanaka, but hearing him with any other voice is still kind of weird.

Awesome. The best I did was wait till the end of his panel at Tandokucon when he asked for a serious question to end with, and I asked him with a completely straight face; how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? Lame, retarded, yes, but he stuttered in magnificent confusion. Couldn't find it rolling around on youtube either. Oh well. Did it to Lex Lang as well, but with much less impressive results.

Ah, since there are a few English VA here I assume that it is alright for other languages?

Image related to Ueda.

English:
Brad Swaile (I only liked him as Quatre, it is going to be so odd to hear him as Setsuna though. Maybe I'll just stick to the Japanese subs.)

Japanese:
Hiroki Takahashi (He does Eiji's voice in Prince of Tennis, which is just so cute. He also does Tamiya's voice in the drama CD for Bukiyo na Silent, which I was thrilled about because I loved that manga. He is in a ton of others rthings though, Gevanni from DN, Hisoka from HxH, and Joey from Yu-Gi-Oh!)
Mayumi Asano (I will always love her as Hisoka from Yami no Matsuei.)
Yumiko Kobayashi (Another woman who does boy's roles. I adore her as Dan Taichi in Tennis no Oujisama and Leon in Star Ocean, but it is so so so weird to hear her as the dub over voice of Malcolm from Malcolm in the Middle.)
Kohei Kiyasu (Does Kaidou in TeniPuri as well as Ippo from Hajime no Ippo)
Kenjiro Tsuda (Kaiba in Yu-Gi-Oh! Inui from TeniPuri and Lambo (the grown up one) in Reborn!)
Yuji Ueda (Not only does he do Zappa from Guilty Gear games, and Claude from Star Ocean, but he does Akutagawa Jirou from TeniPuri, I adore that voice! Also, Brock from Pokemon.)

Now here is the foreign part of it.
French:
Olivier Jankovic (Does Van from Escaflowne but has also done French voice overs for Grey's Anatomy, Friends, and Without a Trace.)
Franck Tordjman (Heero Yuy's voice, as much as I liked the Japanese and English voices, this is the best!)

Italian:
Francesco Bulckaen (In a lot, as the Italian dubs don't seem to have that many VA, but he's George in Paradise Kiss and Howl in Howl's Moving Castle among others.)

German:
Björn Schalla (Did the German voices of Cloud (AC) and Bardock in the DBZ movie that I forget the title of, I think he's done other works, but none I've seen)

Polish:
Dariusz B?a?ejewski (The role of I think his name was Kenji in the Japanese version of Pokemon.)
Cezary Kwieci?ski (Tristan in the Polish dub of the Yu-Gi-Oh! movie, also played Tai in the first four episodes of Digimon but then they handed the part over to Grzegorz Drojewski, who is okay too I guess, but not quite as good.)

Portuguese:
Caio César de Melo (First heard him as a dub over of Harry Potter, but I know he does anime as well.)

Others that I like:
Lars Dittmann Mikkelsen (Danish)
Kim Sulocki (Swedish)

Ah, well I tend to not buy things I download them. And also, I find I enjoy a series the most if I really like the voice acting. So does it not make sense to sample all the different casts to find the one you like the best? Like an audition of sorts. Sometimes I just can not find the file in a certain language or, I just go with the first thing I find regardless of the language. Though I tend to like Japanese, French, and Russian the best, you never know when you may find something you like better in another language. I didn't list any Russian VA because I haven't heard one I didn't like but there aren't many Russian IRC channels I frequent, therefore I haven't seen much in Russian.

Do not speak the language? Do not let that stop you from hearing sexy voices in that language! Just watch it with subtitles in language you do know! .srt files are pretty much amazing!

Hmm, and I don't know who they used for sampling for Kaito's voice but I like it to. I know they used Saki Fujita for Miku. I guess that counts in a way?

Miyano Mamoru is definitely my favorite (as many roles: Light, Setsuna, Zero/Ichiru, Tamaki, and Kiba, at least). He does sound very similar across a lot of his roles, which I normally dislike in voice actors, but I completely love his voice. It's so exact and enunciated.

Morikawa Toshiyuki (Sephiroth, Alex Rou, Nakajima Hideaki, and his songs!) is a longtime favorite as well, as is Okiayu Ryotaro (Dark, Scar, K), and to a limited extent Sugiyama Noriaki (Ishida, Emiya Shirou, Rivalz) when he's not sounding nasal and whiny. When he is, he's probably my least favorite ever, so I don't know what that balances to.

MGS is one of those rare cases in which the English voice acting is far more memorable and overall 100x better than the original Japanese voices.

Quinton's deeper, raspier, creepier voice in MGS4 turned me on so badly. However, Davey Hayter will always be The Man.
