This sounds awful. It's wild that every character in the history of anime has been voiced by like 10 people. It loses all of the nuance in the individual character's personas when they just use the same voice actors for like 30 years now. I'd argue that English anime voice acting is the single most closed circuit career in America. Discover new talent please!

You didn't have to post the same thing twice you know. As for the clip, I thought it sounded good.

He says, as he conspicuously ignores the Japanese voice acting industry which ALSO does the very same thing. But yes, clearly this is an English voice acting thing and not a common practice across the board as producers clearly want the best people for the role lmao. Let’s keep believing that nonsense whilst next season we’re guaranteed to get multiple variations of Yuuki Kaji, Mao, or even Tomokazu Sugita in some role or another.

This is definitely full-TRIGGER lol. The bombastic visuals are almost too much, the over-the-top bravado-fueled dialogue and MANLY POSES are a delightful good time. I'm loving the dub work so far and am excited to hear Bosch in another antihero role.
