Mewtwo has a new Japanese voice actor

Why does this bother me?


 


http://www.veoh.com/watch/v17375187ccSZyRC8 This is Mewtwo's old Japanese voice


http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=rTyPZGdEyyc#t=39s This is Mewtwo's new Japanese voice




That's such a drastic change that it must be a second Mewtwo (either that or Pokemon is tackling gender identity in a movie, but I highly doubt that)


And what's more, this means no Dan Green voiced Mewtwo, most likely




It just really boggles the brain. Either they A) forgot what Mewtwo sounded like, B) introduced a new Mewtwo, or C) are pulling off something that is just... guh

  • Didn't the old one die?

  • No rainbow star

    ^ I don't know, but all the same, how hard is it to find an actor with a similar voice to the original? Or at least remotely in the ball park?


     


    It just honestly bugs me. I don't know if they just did a BAD job at selecting a voice actor or if they are doing something that is pretty out of the blue with his character

  • No rainbow star

    Oh you mean Mewtwo?


     


    No, Mewtwo never died

  • No, I meant the voice actor, as I recall the original one died. I might be wrong, though.

  • No rainbow star

    Nope, he's apparently still alive and working

  • And even if the Japanese one did, DAN GREEN does not die.  He waits.

  • No rainbow star

    ^ However, the choice in voice actor is... If it was another guy with a voice at least somewhat similar, that's one thing, but the voice is entirely different


     


    And I don't think Dan Green could pull off a female voice

  • DAN GREEN could pull off a woman.  A MANLY woman.

  • ^ Okay, I'd love to hear/see that in an anime.
