Top 10 Favorite Voice Actors

 

For this one, I’ll be listing voice actors from anime, American cartoons, and video games that tickle my fancy. It’s a mix of both Japanese and English voice actors. I watch anime both subbed and dubbed, so I get considerably exposed to quite a few different voice actors for both languages.

Below each voice actor, I’ll also list several of my favorite performances of theirs; five for numbers 10-3, and then ten for my top two. Now, that does not mean that those particular characters are favorites of mine by any means. I could even actually hate the character(s), but that doesn’t mean that the voice actor didn’t do an outstanding job with them, you know?

So, without any further ado, here’s my list of favorite Japanese and English voice actors:
