The List - 7 Most In Demand English Voice Actors of 2014

I'm a pretty big fan of English dubs, but there are some guys on here that I've never even heard of. It's starting to feel like this list is more of a list of favorites for the author more than a genuine "Most in Demand" list. Because actors like Todd Haberkorn, Johnny Yong Bosch, Josh Grelle, Micha Solisud, and so on would be on here instead.

At least David Wald, Patrick, and Greg are on there.

She's literally just counting the number of roles they had in 2014. There is no other metric being used.

Sentai dubs far more anime than any other company right now. However the titles they do dub aren't exactly getting as much attention as Attack on Titan, Sailor Moon, DBZ: BoG, or Psycho Pass. The biggest titles they've dubbed this year are probably Log Horizon, Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions, and Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya.

I think that since Vic Mignogna was the 1st ADV VA to work on a Funi title, if it weren't for that (and any other reasons), we might not have had as many ADV/Sentai VA working on Funi titles.

Thanks for the clarification Zac.

This week we're counting down the most in demand voice actors in English dubs for the year. I sat down with ANN's Encyclopedia, went through every new North American release that included English dubs, and tallied the roles to get a comprehensive list of who starred in what, and overall which actors got the most major roles this year. If you need a refresher, we listed actresses last week, so head over there if you haven't checked it out yet.

If people would read why Lynzee writes, it wouldn't have needed a clarification. She clearly explained it right up there at the top, just like last time.
