So last year I made a list of my favourite anime English dub voice actors, so, this time, I'm counting down my favourite English dub actresses. Yes, if you've seen my first list, then you know which one will be on he here, but I wanted to talk about the other ones that I really like and think do phenomenal performances with their characters and some of them may have made just what they were in a lot better for me as a result. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
5. Eden Riegel: Starting us off at number 5 is a voice actress that hasn't done a huge amount when it comes to anime dub, at least yet anyway, but I've loved her performances in all the ones I've seen her in like Rurichiyo from Bleach, Yuna from the Stitch anime and Sara from Naruto Shippuden the Movie: The Lost Tower. (Also, just kind of a thing I wanted mention related to that movie, while in my ranking of the Naruto movies, I put it low on the list, after watching more, I've definitely enjoyed it more and I'd place it higher on the list.) And Eden's performances have always been top-notch and there's never a moment where I'm bored listening.
4. Laura Baily:
Next up is a voice actress who takes on tons of different characters in anime. Just a small handful of them are Trunks and Dende from Dragon Ball Z, Lust from Fullmetal Alchemist and Brotherhood, Kushina and Anko from Naruto, Conis from One Piece and a whole lot more. Like another person you'll see on here, she plays a variety of different characters and a lot of them are caring, friendly and likeable characters.
3. Monica Rial:
Another actress who's done a lot of voice acting for anime and a lot of writing for it too. But when doing the voice acting for it, she's done a wide variety of characters like Mei Chang from Fullmetal Alchemist and Brotherhood, Bulma from Dragon Ball Z Kai and Dragon Ball Super and Maya from Neon Genesis Evangelion. And that's a tiny amount compared to the other huge amounts she's done over the years.
2. Colleen Clinkenbeard:
Coming in close to number 1 is probably the most famous anime dub actress ever, Colleen Clinkenbeard. And there's a good reason why she is. She's done so many roles and she always goes for the tough woman-like characters in anime like Temari from Naruto, Erza from Fairy Tail, Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist and Brotherhood, and, probably her most famous role of all is her amazing performance as the Straw Hat captain himself, Monkey D. Luffy. And given how much screaming Luffy always does, that's an amazing job already.
And my number 1 favourite anime voice actress is... Maile Flannigan:
And finally at number 1 is my favourite English dub performer of all time and the one who voices my favourite anime character ever, Maile Flannigan who voices Naruto. While it's kinda weird to pick a person from just one performance, but I can't help it, I just really love Maile as Naruto and the voice she has for him is the best English anime voice I've ever heard, which is really saying something considering there's a lot of them. But I'm still going by what I said before and Maile Flannigan as Naruto is my favourite dubbed voice ever. And so everyone, those are my top 5 favourite anime voice actresses. Thank you all for reading, I hope you liked this and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me who your favourite is.
With me already making tons of lists before of my characters from different animes, I decided to make another of Yu-Gi-Oh! As I said before, Yu-Gi-Oh is kind of a nostalgic series for me in a small way. And so, even though I haven't completed rewatching all of it, I decided to count down my 10 favourite characters from it. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
10. Mokuba:
Starting us off at number 10 is Seto Kaiba's younger brother, Mokuba. After losing their parents, Mokuba and Seto were all the family they had and Mokuba looked up to Seto like an idol. And ever since they were kids, they've both been together with Mokuba doing everything he can to support Kaiba and do whatever he wants. He also does a lot to help some of the other characters as well. And, while I personally don't think he's likeable all the time, he's is for the most part.
9. Kaiba:
At number 9 is Mokuba's older brother and Yugi's rival, Seto Kaiba. Commonly known as one of the biggest jerks in anime history, Kaiba was orphaned as a young boy and grew up with an abusive adopted father. His treatment led Kaiba to develop a cold heart and he became obsessed with becoming the greatest duellist ever, pretty much the Vegeta of the series, but with duel monsters. And while he definetly has a lot of jerky moments, I much more prefer him when he teams up with Yugi and they work together.
8. Pegasus:
Probably the first real villain we saw in the series, at least in the anime, Pegasus was sort of a character who you'd almost see as a straight up despicable character and, while he's definitely a character who's like that considering what he does some really evil things and it's almost like he does it for some self-satisfaction, however, we then learn that he was hoping to collect the Millennium Items as an attempt to bring back his wife from death. And after he fails to do that, the character sorta, I wouldn't say changes entirely, but he definitely has a change of heart. And I also really like his personality with trying to make jokes all the time and also calling some people funny names or things like that.
7. Duke:
Next up the creator of the Dimension Dice game and owner of the other game shop in Yugi's town, Duke. Once a person who looked up to Pegasus, when he decided to create his own game called Dimension Dice Monsters, he tried to get Pegasus to approve and maybe have it be worldwide, but after Yugi beat Pegasus on Duellist Kingdom, he never heard from Pegasus again causing Duke to have a hatred on Yugi thinking he also cheated. So he tries to bear Yugi to prove it but learned Yugi really was a great gamer. And ever since then, he's been a great ally and friend to Yugi and the others and has sorta been a staple on the rest of the series from then onward.
6. Solomon:
Solomon Muto is Yugi's grandfather and one of the best duellists ever. When he was in Egypt, he found the Millennium Puzzle and gave it to Yugi. He's also the one who taught Yugi everything he knows about Duel Monsters and is the main objective for Yugi when he went to the Duellist Kingdom to save him. And he's really supportive to Yugi and is even really fun and funny when he gets kinda cranky at some parts.
5. Tristan:
The first of Yugi's main friends is at number 5, Tristan. While probably the lowest of the three main friends of Yugi, he still gets a lot of great moments throughout and the character himself is super likeable, supportive and even really funny when he's going back and forth with Joey. But I also like seeing him working along side the others and being just a really great friend.
4. Joey:
At number 4 is Yugi's best friend and one of the more developed characters in the series, Joey. While originally a very rash and impulsive guy who never really thought that much, he began to change more into a better duellist and a better person as well. While originally a jerk to Yugi, when he stood up to a bully who were picking on Joey and Tristan, they became friends and have continued to be so ever since. He's also a lot of fun and might be the most fun character in the series.
3. Téa:
Possibly Yugi's love interest for the series and one of the more likeable characters in it is Téa. Téa was Yugi's first friend. And they've been together for so many years. And the character of Téa herself is extremely likeable with her always caring about her friends and wanting to do whatever it takes to help them. She's also a lot of fun and I like a lot of scenes with her and Yugi together.
2. Yugi:
Coming in close to number 1 is the King of Games and the protagonist of the series, Yugi Muto. While not exactly the bravest of all protagonists out there, Yugi himself is brilliant when it comes to playing games, as well as being a compassionate and friendly person who's willing to do whatever it takes to save everyone he can and just protect his friends and family all together. And the whole story with him is a lot of fun and I always enjoy his scenes in the show. And, yeah, like I've said before, he's definitely another one of my favourite anime protagonists.
And my number 1 favourite Yu-Gi-Oh character is... Atem: And finally at number 1 is the Pharaoh of Egypt and the spirit within Yugi and the Millennium Puzzle, Atem. Five thousand years ago, he sealed the magic of the Shadow Games away inside the Millennium Items and even sealed his spirit inside the Millennium Puzzle. In present time, Yugi released the spirit of the Shadow Games and Atem along with it. When he did, Atem became part of him and has helped him in many duels. And Atem himself is super likeable, friendly and, kind of something that isn't based on the character, but I also really, really love Dan Green's performance as him in the anime. The performance and voice for him is so perfect and is another one of my favourite anime dubbed voices ever. He's also pretty funny in cases and I always love him and Yugi interacting and just talking in general. And all that together is why Atem is my favourite Yu-Gi-Oh characters. And so everyone, those were my top 10 Yu-Gi-Oh characters. Thank you all for reading, I hope you all liked this and please comment down below to tell me what you think and, if you like Yu-Gi-Oh, please tell me your favourite character.
So I'm still doing this whole YouTube thing even if I was getting a little too busy for a while with my exams and stuff like that. But now on YouTube I'm making another series on my channel of my favourite characters from anime like what I did on this. But with this video, I managed to do more like add new effects and use some pictures too. I even added something new from what I did here because I did pretty much say what I said on this, but I wanted to use it for the video because there wasn't really anything I could think of to say as I was doing it. And trust me, putting it all together was pretty hard considering I'm still getting used to this whole editing thing. Anyway, this is it. I hope you like it and please comment and subscribe for more.
So with there being more and more Marvel Netflix content coming out lately, it interesting to think about how these are all still going after what happening Infinity War. I'm really eager to know how this is going to keep going after what happened there, but, for now, we got the second trailer for Luke Cage: Season 2. It looks like more attention is being given to Mariah here. And I'm not gonna lie, even though she's a really despicable villain, she's still pretty enjoyable and Alfre Woodard's performance is always amazing. But I'm also mainly looking forward to seeing more of Mike Colter as Luke himself. And it looks like he's getting more opportunities here. Although, I'm really curious to know who the other villain is in this who's like Luke. Anyway, here it is and I hope you all like it.
MORE, MORE AND MORE. MORE KINGDOM HEARTS 3 TRAILERS SEEM TO BE PRESENTED TO US MORE AND MORE. AND NOW WE HAVE CONFIRMATION OF A PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN RETURNING WORLD IN KINGDOM HEARTS 3. I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I SAW AT THE END. WE SEE AN EXTENED SCENE BETWEEN LEA AND KAIRI AND RIKU WITH HIS DARK SIDE. ALL OF THIS IS GETTING ME SO HYPED THAT I FEEL THIS MAY BE THE MOST FUN GAME I'LL HAVE EVER PLAYED. JUST FROM LOOKING AT THE WORLDS THEMSELVES AND THE GAMEPLAY, IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THIS MAY BE A SUPER FUN AND CROWDED GAME WHEN IT COMES TO PEOPLE. THAT WAS SOMETHING I WANTED MORE FROM THE OTHER KINGDOM HEARTS GAMES, IT LOOKED LIKE THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO GET A LOT OF DISNEY CHARACTERS IN IT. BUT THIS MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIX THAT PROBLEM. AND IT ALL LOOKS SO AMAZING. EVEN JUST THE ANIMATION ON THE CHARACTERS. WE GET TO SEE MORE CHARACTERS FROM THE PIRATES MOVIES AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT THEY DO WITH THEM. AND SO, HERE IT IS AND I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY.
WELL, EVERYONE, IT SEEMS WE'RE GETTING MORE AND MORE KINGDOM HEARTS 3 INFO BECAUSE A FEW MINUTES AGO, WE GOT THE SECOND TRAILER FROM THIS MONTH FOR IT CALLED THE SHOWCASE TRAILER AND IT LOOKS AWESOME. IT SHOWS A BIT OF WHAT WE SAW IN YESTERDAY'S TRAILER, BUT WE ALSO GET MORE FOOTAGE AND CONFIRMATION OF ANOTHER WORLD OR CHARACTER. AND WE EVEN SEE MORE CHARACTERS LIKE XIGBAR, ZEXION, LEA AND KAIRI, WHICH IS AMAZING. IT ALL LOOKS GREAT AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT IT ALL MEANS. (AGAIN, AS I SAID BEFORE, WHENEVER I'M TALKING ABOUT KINGDOM HEARTS 3 NEWS LIKE THIS, I WRITE LIKE THIS TO SHOW HOW EXCITED I AM.) AND SO, HERE IT IS AND I HOPE YOU ALL LIKE IT.
OH MY GOD. WE GOT THE NEW TRAILER FOR KINGDOM HEARTS 3 JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO AND WE HAVE CONFIRMATION THAT FROZEN IS NOW GOING TO BE A WORLD IN THE GAME. THEY SHOW SO MUCH IN THIS TRAILER AND I'M LOVING IT. WE FINALLY GET A REAL TRAILER WITH IT BEING IN ENGLISH AND WE SEE THE NEW SUMMONS LIKE RALPH AND EVEN SIMBA IS RETURNING AS A SUMMON. LARXENE IS ALSO BACK TRYING TO CORRUPT ELSA. AND THERE'S A HUMOUNGOUS TWIST AT THE END OF THE TRAILER THAT I JUST WANT ALL OF YOU CAN SEE AND THIS MADE ME SCREAM OF EXCITMENT THE WHOLE TIME I WAS WATCHING. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH THIS TRAILER AND NOW THAT WE HAVE THE RELEASE DATE, AS I ALWAYS SAY FOR THIS, I COULDN'T BE MORE EXCITED. HERE IT IS AND I HOPE YOU ALL LIKE IT.
AND SO EVERYONE. WE FINALLY GOT CONFIRMATION OF THE RELEASE DATE OF KINGDOM HEARTS 3. IT WAS ANNONCED AT THE KINGDOM HEARTS ORCHESTRA WHO WHERE A NEW TRAILER WAS SHOWN AND THE RELEASE DATE FOR THE GAME. AND THE RELEASED DATE WAS OFFICALLY ANNOUCED TO BE THE 29TH OF JANUARY 2019. WHICH MEANS IT'S NOT THIS YEAR. SOME PEOPLE ARE SAYING IT WAS DELAYED FOR SOME REASON, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT. STILL THOUGH, EVEN THOUGH IT'S KINDA DISAPPOINTING THAT IT'S NOT COMING OUT THIS YEAR, I'M JUST GLAD THAT WE NOW HAVE A 100% CONFIRMATION OF WHEN THE GAME IS COMING OUT. HERE'S EVEN A TWEET OF WHEN IT WAS ANNONCED.
So showing trailers for DreamWorks movies isn't usually something I do, but for something like How To Train Your Dragon, I think it's a bit of an exception. And so, here's the first trailer for the last How To Train Your Dragon movie in the franchise, The Hidden World. As many of you know, the Dragons franchise may be one of the best animation franchises ever and this might be the most interesting looking DreamWorks movie I've seen. Obviously, it's just a trailer, but, from the looks of it, it looks like it could be extremely interesting and maybe even a little dark with plenty of comedy. We see a female Night Fury called a Light Fury and many other things like a separate dragon world and it all looks incredible. I'm of course super excited and can't wait for it next year. And so, here it is and I hope you all like it.
And so, everyone, a little while ago, we got the second trailer for Wreck-It Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks The Internet. This is probably the most interesting Disney trailer I've ever seen. And what I mean by that is that it looks like they're doing one humongous Disney crossover in this because we're seeing a bunch of Disney characters in this and a lot of different Disney properties. Personally, I think this is awesome. Being a gigantic Disney fan, this could honestly be like a dream come true. See them all together in one place. I do hope this doesn't become too crowded with that. But this is like Kingdom Hearts whereas it's a huge Disney crossover and I'm loving what I'm excited to see it. Hey, maybe they'll even reference Kingdom Hearts here if we're lucky. And so here it is and I hope you all like it.
So two months ago, I made a list of my top 10 Sonic songs. But I felt kinda bad for leaving some other songs on it so I decided to make a continuation of that countdown with the same rules and all that. And they do still imply here. This'll be like some other ones I've made where this is like a countdown from number 20 to 11 and the rest is in the first list I made. Also, the same song and music choices are allowed to. This isn't just a song one. Actual pieces of music can be included here too. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
10. Race To Win (Sonic Rivals 2):
Starting us off is one of the stage songs of Sonic Rivals 2. Actually, it's the stage song for the first one you go to. It may be really short, but it's still incredibly awesome sounding. Not the best sounding song, but still, it's pretty cool. I also really like how it goes on without stopping, especially if you watch it on repeat. I have it on my iPod and I have it on a 10 minute loop.
9. Reach For The Stars (Sonic Colours):
Like a lot of the songs you'll see on here, I only recently just got into this song. Again, like a lot of the ones you'll see on here, I heard about them from a ton of YouTubers talking about them and I got curious to hear them and so I did. And I loved a lot of them. And starting us off with those kind of songs is Reach For The Stars from Sonic Colours. It's a great sound with great instruments and it's sung by the best Sonic composers and song writers, Crush 40. The song itself sorta describes a bit of the song with the whole colour feel to it.
8. Escape From The City (Sonic Adventure 2):
Another song I discovered recently, when I first heard this song, I wasn't the biggest fan of it, but as I listened to it more, it grew on me more and I thought it got a lot catchier. It also fits the level it's playing over. It's when Sonic is running through the city trying to avoid being caught by the authorities. And the songs just gets me pumped up from listening from the very first lyric that's said. It's almost kinda hard to explain, but there's something about the time it came out in that I feel sorta makes it a tad bit better to me.
7. Live Life (Sonic And The Black Knight):
Next up is the ending song from Sonic And The Black Knight. This is easily one of the more soother and calm songs when it comes to Sonic. And it does a magnificent job doing what it's supposed to. It's also kind of a refreshing song to listen to after a huge battle with Merlina. It also perfectly fits the scene it's playing over and it has great uses of instruments. I actually only recently listened to the lyrics properly, but I still liked it before with a bit of its instrumentals.
6. With Me (Remix) (Sonic And The Black Knight):
This is the only remix Sonic remix song that I actually think is better than the original. I haven't heard them all, but this is my favourite so far. I know the original With Me song, but Crush 40's version of it is a lot better to me. It just sounds a lot more epic, it has more weight to it and it great to listen to when in boss fights. I know the original is used during the final boss of Sonic And The Black Knight, but when I looked it up on YouTube, it sounded a lot better. As well as that, it just sounds really cool and I love its sound.
5. I Am All Of Me (Shadow The Hedgehog):
Out of all the Sonic songs out there, this is definitely one of the darker ones. Or maybe even the darkest. And it perfectly fits the character of Shadow. It's dark, it's kinda rougher in a way in the way it sounds and it captures what he's trying to do in the game. Trying to discover his past and do whatever it takes to find it. While the game may not have been very good, or really even good to begin with, the music was pretty good, or really just this one for me, and I really like it.
4. Knight Of The Wind (Sonic And The Black Knight):
When it comes to Sonic songs out there, this is apparently one of the more overused ones as I've been told. But it's still a rocking song, especially as it just keeps going and going. It just keeps getting more and more lively, I guess you could say. That same thing can be said for a lot of Sonic songs, or really any song ever, but, whatever. But from the opening guitar sound, it just keeps going and I love it especially towards the end of each chores, especially the "I'm the Knight of the Wind" part towards to end of them.
3. We Can (Sonic Heroes):
In Sonic Heroes, all the teams got their own theme song and the one for Team Sonic is my favourite. I didn't really like any of the team songs in that game, but this is the one exception. It really fits the character of Sonic and the team he had with him. It's also just really fun to hear and great to explain what the message of the game is, that with friends by your side, you can overcome any obstacle. That's what I got out of it anyway and hopefully that'll be what you'll get out of it too. But even besides that, it's a lot of fun and definitely my favourite team song from Sonic Heroes.
2. Gotta Go Fast (Sonic X):
I feel like I should have put this somewhere on my original list. I mentioned before in my top 10 anime opening list that this was one of my favourites and, yeah, I still stand by that. I recently learned that some people kinda find this song to be kinda annoying, but I personally love it. I know, I'm not best person to take an opinion from, but I just really love the song, the show and the entertainment I get from the show. And this song is just one part of that. It's really fasted paced and it never gets annoying for me. I just love this song so much and I'm never gonna dislike it.
And my number 1 other favourite Sonic The Hedgehog song is... My Destiny (Sonic The Hedgehog 2006):
And finally at number 1, or 11 in this case, is the end credit song from Sonic The Hedgehog 2006, My Destiny. I honestly have no idea what people's thoughts on this song are, but, personally, I love it and think it perfectly fits with what this game is and the character of Elise. That may not be saying much considering people don't like this game or the character of Elise, even though I really love both. My favourite part is during the 1:29 mark where the line "The meaning of my destiny" is. I mean, there's a lot of great lines from this song in my opinion, but that part may be my favourite. I love it and I think the rest fits the mood of the game too. All in all, I love this song and it's definitely my number 1 pick for my 11th favourite Sonic song, in fact, it may even go up a little bit higher than that. And so, everyone, those are my picks for my top 10 other favourite Sonic The Hedgehog songs. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think, or, if you like Sonic too, please comment your favourite song.
Starting us off at number 5 is a voice actress that hasn't done a huge amount when it comes to anime dub, at least yet anyway, but I've loved her performances in all the ones I've seen her in like Rurichiyo from Bleach, Yuna from the Stitch anime and Sara from Naruto Shippuden the Movie: The Lost Tower. (Also, just kind of a thing I wanted mention related to that movie, while in my ranking of the Naruto movies, I put it low on the list, after watching more, I've definitely enjoyed it more and I'd place it higher on the list.) And Eden's performances have always been top-notch and there's never a moment where I'm bored listening.
