  • I haven't heard enough of the newer voices, so I won't say anything about those.
    I outright hated only one voice.

    Guess who keeps his old voice in the new dub?
    I guess I'm weird, I love Meowth's Japanese voice...

    the voice of a middle-aged woman with a heavy smoking habit does not suit a ten year old boy maybe its just me but it's far from cute

  • Mine would have to always be Dawn, her voice just irritates me a lot.
    I've disliked her from the start

  • Eep, a lot of the dub voices annoy me :/
    Dawn's really bugs me!

    And... Gary's... omg...

    But the majority of them are very mediocre :v

    You posting this here because if you did so in Bulba you'd be banned? >__>

    Initially, I hated Ash's voice, but I grew to like it with time. And it improved notably. I also didn't have a good side for Brock's first voice, and I actually like his second voice actor. Just a personal preference situation complex. That's about it. I'm neutral with anything else.

    Yea, and now his voice actor voices James and Meowth and Prof. Oak too, which makes four characters with his awful voice. Gary was bad enough.

    Are we talking current Ash or the original? Because I'm not certain about Taylor's status as a smoker, and Natochenny is far from middle-aged... she's younger than I am.

    I'm actually surprised to see so much hate for Piplup. I love Piplup's voice :D

  • I've always seemed to hate Ash's voice, no matter who did it and in what season. In the rare event that I actually watch the anime, I always have to watch with the sound muted.

    Pikachu and Piplup annoy me as well, and sadly neither one is probably gonna evolve :/

    I don't like any of the new voices that much really.

    the voices for Ash, Brock, James and Mewoth in particular are very annoying.

    The old ones were much better, probably because those are the voices i grew up with, i did start watching the show right back when it all started at back in 99 afterall.

    Zoppi's James gets a bit irritating in long bursts, but it's close to my father's impression of Stuart's James, so it's not too bad.

    Rachael Lillis' Pikachu sounds nothing like Ikue, but it's not heard often, so I'll let her off. (After-all she did do an excellent job of making Misty sound nothing like Jessie)

    I recall disliking Giovanni's PUSA voice in that the 1 episode it was in. - heard him again, and he's actually pretty good.

    I think most people dislike Zoppi's Prof. Oak, and I can say I am included in that group.

    Morrison was intensely irritating, and that's coming from someone who is well familiar with King Kai.

    But I think we can all agree that the worst voice in the history of either dub was the guy with the Electabuzz who fought Morrison in the Hoenn League. That was a hard match to watch given that both trainers had grating voices.

  • I hate May's voice. That's one of the main reasons I find her annoying.

    I also hate Casey's voice, I'm glad she doesn't appear in the anime anymore.

    Definitely.

    That was a horrible horrible match to have to listen to...
    At least I sorta liked Morrison. The other guy had an extremely irritating personality as well as a horrible voice.
