Shannon is more suited for voicing little boys, like kid Yuichi in Kanon, but not so much teenage boys. Her Shima in Clannad was terrible.

At least it's not Clint Bickham, though.

See what Chris does with director chair. He's willing to take risks. I've been excited for it.

These were listed out of order or something... right?

But then again, it might be interesting to hear some of these guys in types of roles they don't usually do.

We don't have to wait. It's all here to judge. Karbowski as Rin is wrong. Tiffany Grant as Kud is wrong. Carli Mosier as Kurugaya is wrong. Greg Ayres and Blake Shepard are also hilariously mis cast as is every other listing.

What the hell were they thinking?

Greg as Masato? how is that going to work?
It's not. This is Sentai we're talking about here. Giving them a chance after seeing a weird casting choice has never worked out well in the past. Especially when it comes to Greg Ayres. He's voiced so many characters with varying personalities but most of them have the same god damn voice. I'll give him Koyuki but other than that he's got nothing. In fact, I can't recall the last time Greg Ayres wasn't miscast.

The casting of Greg Ayres as Masato did throw me for a loop a bit, but the rest of the cast I don't have a problem with. I'll keep an open mind until I see it, but I think this dub will be okay.

People can say what they like, I think he's done a decent job as Abe in Big Windup, Uesugi Kenshin in Sengoku Basara, Guldo in DBZ Kai, Yamasaki from Welcome to the NHK, Heihachi from Samurai 7, and Cabaji from One Piece to name a few.

I just watched the dubbed version up to episode 4, and I think it's not that bad.
At least Rin's voice and Komari's voice in the dub version is much more pleasant to hear than in the original Japanese.

Though I think it's still acceptable, but Haruka's voice and Kurugaya's voice are not very fitting in my opinion. Kud's voice is not as high-pitched and squeaky as in the Japanese dub, but with her heavy Russian accent and broken English, it's really hard to understand what she's saying.

No, Brittney Karbowski as Rin and Blake Shepard as Kyousuke are both perfect. And you thinking that they aren't for whatever ridiculous reason is what is really hilarious.
