I think the weirdest pairings you can come up with are pretty much any seiyuu who played in Polar Bear Cafe.
For example, Nakamura Yuichi? Played this guy http://moe.animecharactersdatabase.com/uploads/chars/4758-1291674454.png and this guy http://images5.fanpop.com/image/photos/28500000/Ringo-Tsukimiya-uta-no-prince-sama-28592569-701-720.jpg
You nailed that right 'bout Shirokuma Cafe lol. Yea, pretty weird for those seiyuu playing a character there. I dunno how to describe it.. It's just, well, weird.
No recognition for Inoue Kikuko again?
Ok, I'll go for the goddess trio
Kikuko Inoue :
Belldandy (Ah! My goddess!) & Minerva (Fairy Tail)
Yumi Touma :
Urd (Ah! My goddess!) & Arpergillus Oryzae (Moyashimon)
Aya Hisakawa :
Skuld (Ah! My goddess!) & Unohana Retsu (Bleach)
And since I mentioned Fairy Tail and Moyashimon...
Sayaka Oohara:
Erza Scarlet (Fairy Tail) & Yasuko "Mirano" Takasu (Toradora!)
No 9. isn't that far away, but I was really suprised about Lelouch - birdie boy.
lol. from revy to yabasawa xD
probably the funniest one lol
Surprised Ayako Kawasumi aka Saber(FSN) and Nodame (Nodame Cantabile) wasnt in the list
@myself
LOL @ YUI AND MEAT
Megumi Hayashibara FTW.
Fuck yeah!
For the Seijuu Queen Megumi Hayashibara, they should have used Hello Kitty and Eva unit 01. For the life of me I don't know how a human being could roar like that.
Sweet lord, yes.
I don't know how she pulled that off.
I just came here to say Sena is my waifu.
you got it wrong. she's MAI WAIFU
what about that girl that does konata from lucky star.
STFU moetard!
lucky star is as gangsta as anime gets.
Last we heard she fancies herself gods gift to men and thinks everyone should worship her... she also likes her cat and thinks she is good at singing and acting.
Just assume Kana Hanazawa does every voice in every anime ever and it doesn't become so surprising anymore.
No, she only does half of the voices in every anime ever. The other half are Megumi Hayashibara.
Nope. Other half is Yumi Touma. In fact, Hayashibara and Touma are the most prolific voice actors/actress ever, with over 200 different roles and over 300 different works (series, sequels, movies & videogames).
Hanazawa is still a loli, so I would give her a 10% at best LOL
Speaking of Yumi Touma, I was surprised to find that Urd's seiyuu was also Emma's.
Hiroaki Hirata did a lot of extra male characters in Digimon that it was quite disturbing because it felt that you could hear his voice all the time although I guess he´s uncredited for most of them.
Everything should be possible if Rei Ayanami and Bulbasaur share the same voice...
Same goes for Satoko Houjou and Chikorita.
Kobayashi Yuu
Explain.
Most of those seiyuu with distinct, unique type of voice like Kobayashi Yuu, Norio Wakamoto, Satomi Arai and Tomokazu Sugita are pretty much easy to recognize, so any character they voiced sounds about the same.
Aya Endo and Megumi Nakajima are pretty easily to recognise too imo
guess they forgot no. 1
Sakurai Takahiro
Kururugi Suzaku (Geass) and Isohata Uki (Soredemo Machi wa Mawatte Iru)
90% of them isn't shocking if you have ears... what an idiotic list.
It's not just about how they sound, it's about the personality of characters they voiced, you idiotic douchebag.
Houko Kuwashima
What the fuck!!!
??. Hikasa Youko:
Seraphim (Kore wa Zombie Desuka?) and Ousawa Miu (Hagure Yuusha no Aesthetica)
STFU moetard! x 2
Or even better, Izumi Takanashi from Working!!
11. Kazuhiko Inoue as Anthony (CANDY CANDY) and Nyanko-sensei (Natsume’s Book of Friends)
I find more shocking that something related to CANDY CANDY, even the show itself, appears in the list, a really really old anime in a japanese TOP list, well ok~
Are suddenly some of us just feeling older for no apparent reason? Maybe some side effects from reaching Archwizard Level, at least for this Anon...
Missed Maaya Sakamoto
Ciel,Haruhi and Shinobu
I'm surprised Kugimiya Rie isn't on the list. If they didn't know I doubt anyone would realize that Alphonse(FMA), Karin(Bleach), Nemu(Bleach), and Mizore(R+V) shared the same Seiyuu.
Funny thing is, she's so famous for her distinctive tsunderes that it's easy to forget how much range she has outside the archetype.
Take Taiga from ToraDora and Yuki from Saki. The characters are so different I don't feel like connecting them at all. And, boy, did that whoever it was several seconds' stand-in in Achiga-hen fell short.
How bout Ikuto from Digimon Savers?
The snow girl from Rosario x Vampire!
Also, the secretary of Rick's father from Arakawa Under the Bridge!
Horo (Ookami to Koushinryou)
==
Tsukamoto Tenma (School Rumble)
I'd think the most surprising one would be Lelouch and Mariandale from Ixion Saga DT.
Or Tori Aoi and Mariandale. Either way, being seiyuu for Mariandale is already surprising to me.
Watanabe Akeno
Yuuki Rito > Villetta and Suzaku of Code Geass > Tayuya > Yahagi Kyou > Takizaki Rina
Hitagi-sans voice actress is very talented... because Hitagi said so..
Half of these are really obvious. There are *much* better choices for nearly every one they listed.
Just two quick ones:
2. Haruka Tomastsu: Morgiana and Asuna sound very similar. They should have gone with Hitei-hime (Katanagatari), Takatsuki Ichika (Ano Natsu de Matteru) and Rindou Ranmaru (Binbougami ga!)
Or how about,
7. Kana Hanazawa: Hyuuga Mahiru (Kami-sama Dolls) and Hasegawa Kobato (Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai)
Like Ueda Kana: Fukuzawa Yumi (Maria-sama ga Miteru) and Rachel Alucard (Blazblue series)...
Or even better, Nakahara Mai: Sugimoto Kuri (Aoi Hana), Furukawa Nagisa (Clannad), Shiino (Kannagi), May Wong (Kaleido Star), Morimiya Aono (sola) etc...
>Ueda Kana
Who is also Sara Matsunaga (Ever17 -the out of infinity-) and, AFAIR, Tosaka Rin of F/SN.
Or Sakura Ichiko (Binbougami ga!) for Hanazawa Kana: http://ge.tt/7pSLT7a/v/0?c .
I'm not sure which role I'd put opposite, but for Sawashiro Miyuki I'd pick Apo (Uchuu Kyoudai). My personal list includes Okamoto Nobuhiko as Accelerator (Index) and Otonashi Io (Acchi Kocchi), and Mizuhashi Kaori has quite the range even without going outside of Madoka (in addition to Mami, she voiced Kaname Tatsuya and Walpurgis Night).
That link's a little confusing with the space and period after it. Try this:
[http://ge.tt/7pSLT7a/v/0?]http://ge.tt/7pSLT7a/v/0?
Kappei Yamaguchi:
L (Death Note) and Usopp (One Piece)
Tomokazu Sugita
Kyon(Haruhi)
Ragna the Bloodedge(blazblue)
You can also add Motosuwa Hideki (CHOBITS)...
They both cool character, not really that shocking. Most people knows it.
whatever nerd
