https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/in...on-of-who-would-voice-luffy-after-her/.149496 Something inside me broke and i had a 1-hour tantrum. Ugh my room is a mess. Well jokes aside i was a bit sad on the possibility of a new Luffy. I understand it's inevitable but including movies/ova Luffy has been with us for 900+ eps and I'm sure it'll break 1,000. Goku as well but he has multiple series and I'm too lazy to add up their ep count. Well we will have to adjust when it comes even if we don't like it. Well you would you all like to hear as your childhood heroes. Assuming currents have 10+years in their careers left please make your selections under 40yrs please. Edit: I'm not familiar with VA real names so I won't post any choices. Heh I don't even know the lolita goddess's real name. I'm sure you all know who I'm talking about.
Like all things, we will be bothered at first saying how much better the 1st voice was. Then eventually get used to it and say "well, it isn't too bad after all". Just like Mouri Kogorou from conan.
I'm the kinda person, when I go overseas, I ask for the subtitles. The same with anime, I watch it in subtitles, even tho stopped liking anime.
Sure, why not? Masako Nozawa san is a great seiyuu I am more worried about who will voice Bulma in dragonball should there ever be a new season of the anime
it's like old Kermit the frog... only those that grew up with the original voice will know the difference (or watched the originals till the computer/ tape/ DVD/ blue ray broke ...) but the kids will not hear a difference until they do the above (in ()). one of the reasons I've always said to my friends Marvel and DC should do their movies as toons instead of live action so they don't have to change actors every few movies ....
The new voice for bulma in Japanese has already been picked since like march 2018 and was in the broly movie.
I’d find it quite sad. When I played KH3 a few months ago, I was rather upset with the VA changes they made there. I thought the guy they used to replace Leonard Nimoy sounded nothing like him, although the guy who replaced Christopher Lee was okay. Tanaka-san’s Luffy is so iconic, I can’t imagine anyone being able to replace her. Then again, I felt the same when they replaced most of the superb original cast of Hunter x Hunter in the new version. I couldn’t make it past episode 1, I found the changes too upsetting.
I dont think I would never be able to get over Luffy if he got a new voice actor. Man there were just a lot of legendary scenes with her voice acting like Luffy vs Lucci and not hearing her doing Luffys voice until One Piece ends would be such a bummer to me. I mean I would not shit on the replacement but I would be disheartened none the less.Gokus Jap va kills my ears anyway so I really have no feelings on the matter lol
I predict the future of movies with trilogies will starts using body doubles with the face added on, kinda like in vr, where users select avatars to cosplay, just that in movies, we will have actors who won't depend on their looks, but their acting skills coupled with 'avatars'
Thanks for the responses. I hope more keep coming. Luffy you're still young (64). I hope you can last until the end. Goku you're a care free spirit who does everything with his feelings (82). Take it as far as you can go (128).
they have already basically done that in Rise of the Machines, and have been ever since (cough cough one of the Star Wars movies)
masako-san's voice for child goku was great for me, but as for adult goku... a more masculine voice would fit better imho
