VA's voicing the same characters in the same language is literally the coolest thing.

Holy crap, they actually have a bilinguist to do both voice languages? Has that ever happened before?

I mean, I recall the creator of Villainous voicing both the Spanish and English of Black Hat, but in a major anime that's a rarity.

It's happened multiple times. Mari Iijima voiced Minmay in ADV's Macross dub. Karin Kagami voices her characters in both the English and Japanese versions of D4DJ and Cardfight Vanguard Will+Dress.

Only other time I can think of is the ADV dub of SDF Macross, which got Mari Iijima to voice Minmay again over 20 years later. EDIT: Double-ninja'd.

This might be the first time the bilingual cast member is someone whose first language was English.

Miyuki Sawashiro in Di-Gi Charat did double with both the English and JP dubs.

For a preview of bilingual Sally Amaki, you can check her role as Sakura Fujima from 22/7 or Kiriko from Overwatch.

I love her humor.

However, I believe Sally is the first case of a bilingual seiyuu playing the same character in a simuldub from FuniRol..
