What is your opinion of the cast?
-
The Tres Iquis fangirl in me loves Christopher R. Sabat. The rest of me loves Mike McFarland, Aaron Dismuke and Travis Willingham. Vic... Not so much so.
-
When does the ouran dub come out? Will it be on tv?
-
I don't know whether or not it's going to air on tv but the dvd comes out Oct. 28...
here's more of the scoop:
http://www.funimation.com/f_index.cfm?page=news&id=456
Personally, I never really thought of vic as tamaki but he's a good voice actor... so I trust it. :P
The others seem good, as well.
Well, the ones I can recognize, anyway.
Thank goodness funimation is doing it though <3
-
Vic's been aiming for Tamaki for some time, but I'm unsure if he'll be able to pull it off =/
His cracky voice doesn't really suit the bold and dramatic Tamaki, IMO D:
-
I'm not excited.
Honestly, the only person in the cast I completely agree with is Mike McFarland as Ranka. He was Ritsu in Fruits Basket, who is a similar character. 8D
I mean, I like that Ouran's coming over here, but I wish there was a better cast.
@ Hazuza - Agreed. I just don't think he can make that flamboyantly crazy voice that Tamaki has.
-
Vic =/= Tamaki
He should have been cast as one of the twins, or someone of that sort. I know he loves Ouran and whatnot, but if he really loved Ouran he'd want the VA's to be perfecto. Can anyone think of a single role of Vic's where he sounds remotely Tamaki-ish? ???
As for the rest... they're ok. I've already seen it subbed so I'll watch the dub for kicks. I know that Caitlin is putting a lot of effort into this, and all the VA's are, at the very least, extremely pumped up about Ouran. So let's hold our judgement until it actually comes out :D
As for TV, probably no. Since it's a shoujo it has virtually -3% chances. Who would take it? Scifi? AS? Nein on each front unfortunately, but at least we have 13 episode box-sets + commentaries + outtakes to keep us happy :)
Kotuomi cheer up about the dub and it's potential! It could be potentially amazing! Btw, Mike McFarland even crossplayed as Ranka at Anime Expo :D
-
I'll watch it and determine if I like it from there. Hey could anyone ever thing that Heath Leger would be a good Joker? You never know till it comes out. I am going to stay optimistic. ^_^
-
Nice attitude! We should all keep in mind that Caitlin is putting forth as much effort as she could possibly exert. I'm sure we'll end up with a quality product, Vic braying aside ;)
-
yup that's the way to look at it. I can't wait till it comes out just so I can have the box set. Then I can watch it in english and japanese. ^_^
-
I'm pumped up too. The wait has been way too long, and arduous. Since Funi nabbed Ouran I've forbidden myself from re-watching Ouran, because I want to relive my first moments of watching it all over again. The waitwill so be worth it :)

Never said I wouldn't watch some episodes to see if I like it or not~ I'm just not looking forward to most of the cast - it's pretty much FMA in a school.
They're talented people, I'm just not sure they'd fit the atmosphere in Ouran, if I'm making sense.
And I know, pictures were seen and it was epic. xD
-
I also am a bit perturbed about 90% of the FMA cast coming into Ouran. I was kind of hoping that they'd get a noobie to do Haruhi, I mean Caitlin is great but I see her as a much better fit to Renge ;D

Yeah, I can kind of see that too now that you mention it ^^;;
haha.
-
hmm met first two peeps at the staff signing session at sakura con.. dont know about them for the voices but then again i just love the japanese version of this sooo much
-
I'm not too excited about it; I really can't imagine Vic as Tamaki, but who knows.
I'm definitely going to get it anyway, and I'm definitely going to watch the dub anyway just for kicks. I mean, if it comes with it, why not? ;D
-
I'm gonna pre-order it as soon as I possibly can... I'm ravenous for Ouran! ;D
-
it would be sweet if it comes out in delux box sets like haruhi suzumiya did with lots of neat stuff n extras
-
Funi already announced it's release method: half-season box sets, each containing 13 episodes. Extras so far are commentaries and outtakes. I'm sure there is more good stuff beyond the horizon 8)
-
I think the dub cast looks pretty good and the fact that funimation is doing it is sweet.
-
OMG ALMOST ALL MY FAVORITE VOICE ACTORS ARE IN MY FAVORITE ANIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I COULD CRY ;_;
I'm totally buying all the DVD'S that come out even if I already watched the entire anime in japansese. :D
I Love your Voice Vic Mignogna I Love It, and you too Greg Ayres You guys are my favorite voice actors :D
Thank You for Posting this <3

Thank You for Posting this <3
Heh, no problem :D
-
i cant wait to get it but i mighy so some one can get it for me for xmas
-
I would not be able to wait that long. I would shrivel up from withdrawl :D
-
WHAT WITHDRAWLS?
this is one the few animes that i keep on the lap top so i can watch it when ever i want, i just hook it uo to the tv and presto, even in japanese great back ground noise to sew to
i love the japanese voicese so much that even tho it sounds like a great english castits going to be hard to compeat
-
I have it handy wherever I go (if I'm gone for a long time) so I can pop the cd into my computer and watch it too. Where would I be without file sharing?
-
After I had watched Ouran one single time, I vowed to not watch it again until it came out on dvd... it's been pretty brutal.
-
Ohhh, interesting voice actors. Although I may be a bit annoyed at hearing a LOT of familiar voices, I think the Dub will be pretty good! I'm just trying to think of how Haruhi's voice is going to be. I'm guessing either really good, or really bad. >.>
-
I pray that it's really good ;) At the very least, the VAs are excited about this, and it's reassuring that they're getting such a kick out of their jobs.
