Forum:Dub voices

Well, since a bunch of new characters are going to come out for the dub, I thought it'd be a good idea to start this thing up instead of crowding the Talk pages with it. This will probably be used off and on for a long time, considering all of the new roles for Bleach coming up. Arrancar109 06:13, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Ulquiorra Cifer
Dood sounds more like Liam O' Brien. In any case, they've corrected the pronounciation error in Shattered Blade. Kaihedgie 05:28, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I noticed that as well. To say I'm pissed is an understatement. But yeah, they fixed the pronunciation. I'm not sure who it is. For a moment, I thought it sounded a bit like David Rasner (a la Tosen), but I'm not positive. And the new voice isn't bad, but come on. Blum is pretty good. Arrancar109 05:34, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I find the English dub sad. He sounds like a little boy, rather than the ultra powerful being that he is. Well, at least there's still Blum's dub around for that game. Which, unfortunately, makes this dub all the more lame. Anyone know why Blum didn't come back for the anime? Twocents 05:43, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


 * There are many possible reasons. One might be that it may have conflicted with some of his other dubbing work. Don't forget he's voicing Wolverine in Wolverine and the X-Men which some episodes are already in pre-production, so scheduling conflicts might be one of the reasons. Another possible reason is that studios thought that the voice sounded too much like Noba (hence the debate people are having everywhere) and had to remedy that. Ulquiorra sounds young in the original Japanese version as well, but still, I think Blum was a better choice. At this point, I'm just hoping David Vincent voices Grimmjow. Arrancar109 05:48, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

One of the reasons is that Steve Blum is a Union Actor and Bleach is a Non-Union Dub and if you notice in Shattered Blade no one is credited for Ulquiorra,but David Vincent is. Impling it was a union actor. Yeah, I always had the impression that Ulquiorra would have that young, melancholic voice before Blum dubbed him.--Lemursrule 17:00, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Speakin' of Vincent, people kinda despise his voice from what I hear, but then again....Kaihedgie 05:52, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Well, Vincent pulled off his voice well in the game (IMO). Granted, there are some other voice actors who can, but as I said about the Scott McNeil thing, their selection would be limited, since McNeil is a part of Ocean Studios (who are NOT dubbing Bleach). Either way though, I think Vincent can get the work. Besides, he was probably gunning for the role in the series. Not positive if he was, but he doesn't have as much roles as some of the other voice actors in Bleach Arrancar109 05:57, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

On this note, can someone tell me who plays Hiyori? I think she sounded a bit like Jeannie Elias, but I'm not positive about this either. Arrancar109 06:30, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

RE
I like Ulquiorra,Hiyori,and Yammy's eng voices, although Yammy's could be deeper.

gohanRULEZ 07:58, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Ulquiorra voice Tony Oliver
I happen to like the voice for several reasons. Ulquiorra is implied to be of Spanish(european spain not latin american) decent and and should sound young. Tony Oliver is from Spanish decent(born in Puerico looks spanish real name is Atonio Tony for short) and has the young sounding voice, PLUS HE SAYS KILL AWESOME! As much as I liked Steve Blum he kinda sounded too old and Ulquiorra in the manga physically looks at the most no older than 19. Ulquiorra is a young guy wondering about the currosities of being human, thus why he joined Aizen.--Lemursrule 17:38, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Sign your comments. And I'm not saying that Tony Oliver sucks. Actually, I was hoping he'd get a better role after the end of the Bount Arc (which he did). It's just that I, like many others who have played Shattered Blade, pictured Blum reprising the role. Still, like I mentioned in one of the above paragraphs, Ulquiorra originally had a higher-pitched voice in the Japanese version, so the fact that he'd also have a young voice in the dub also makes sense. Arrancar109 16:59, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks I love Hiyori dubbed voice bitchy yet not to bitchy so that you can relate with her. Also with former filler characters getting better parts, I am glad that Troy Baker(Jin Kariya) is the narrator for the series now. He is a great voice actor it just sucks that he sometimes doesn't get the best developed characters. But I am glad he now has a long on going thing since code geass is ending soon --Lemursrule 17:39, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Acutally, I think Kirk Thornton voices the narrator, but I don't care much about that (even though Bleach needed a narrator at some point). Any guesses who voices Hiyori? I don't think anyone here or on Wikipedia has made any guesses besides myself, and even I bet that I'm wrong. Also, despite what that edit says, I'm not sure it's Laura Bailey either. Arrancar109 17:45, 3 May 2009 (UTC) Sorry you are right it is kirk(though it kinda sounded like troy when I first listened, Troy would make an excelent Stark I think) There are sources saying that Hiyori is played by Laura Baily not sure though. I forget is Laura union or non-union. I am not 100% sure myself.It would be great if it was Bailey(maybe people will stop freakin complaining on every last thing with the dub, though I doubt that) Warner Bros is probably on viz's and studiopolis's backs saying make the dub good. Bleach is not a bad dub, probably one of the better dubs out there. I KNOW WHAT A BAD DUB IS! I LIVED THROUGH SAILOR MOON FOR GOD'S SAKE!--Lemursrule 21:14, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Man, I couldn't tell at first, and I was skeptical to believe it (since Anime News Network was the source, and they do get baseless information from time to time), but Gina K. Bowes (or G.K. Bowes), the one who plays Senna plays Hiyori. I couldn't tell at first, but after listening to it again, I can definitely tell now. Arrancar109 04:11, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Tony Oliver is one of the male voice actors capable of changing his pitch to that of a adolescent teenager or young man. he voiced Rick Hunter in Robotech, a character who was about 18-19 years old at the time the series started. If you've heard him speak at conventions or during interviews, his normal speaking voice does have a slightly higher pitch to it.Spacedone 07:53, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

ARE YOU READY?!?!?
ep 116 and 117 are gonna air on [adult swim] and we get to hear Grimmjow and all and his Fracción's voices i'm happy right now!--Kisukeiscool100396 05:27, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Personally, I hope they stuck with David Vincent in the dub. He did a decent job for Grimmjow in Shattered Blade. I wouldn't be happy with very many replacements (nor would I be surprised), but if they did, then one of the few people who I would accept to voice Grimmjow is Crispin Freeman. Though, Freeman being in Bleach at all questionable, since I heard that Freeman only does Union-dubs, and Bleach is said to be non-Union. Arrancar109 05:37, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

i'm sorry but what's a union dub?--Kisukeiscool100396 05:52, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Good question. I'm not sure about that myself, let alone which Anime are or are not Union dubs, but people have been throwing that around when people thought that Kariya was voiced by Freeman during his first appearance in the Bount Arc, since his appearance in that episode was rather brief. Either way though, we'll know tomorrow if Grimmjow retains his Shattered Blade voice actor or not. I'm actually anxious to see the other vizards' voice actors as well. I'd say the other Espada after Grimmjow, but that part might take awhile. Arrancar109 06:01, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

It is only in progress, but I can't tell yet. Anyone know who voices Grimmjow? Arrancar109 04:36, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, it does sound like Vincent. Arrancar109 04:52, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

here is what i think

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez it was ok :|

Shawlong Kūfang really good :)

Yylfordt Granz i thought it was good :)

Edrad Liones i didn't like it :(

Di Roy Linker WTF it sounds bad like really bad it sounds like he has braces on his teeth --Kisukeiscool100396 00:17, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Most of the Geneon dubs were probably non-union since most of the voice actors went by an alias or some spelling variation of their real name. It will be interesting to see who the voice actors for the 7 other Espada turn out to be; it is possible they could use some of the same voice actors doing the Soul Reaper officers. There are a few voice actors who do both a captain and a lieutenant albeit from different companies: Soifon = Momo, Toshirio = Shuhei, and Retsu = Nanao using a variation on the voice to make them distinctive from each other. Or they could use new voice actors or the voice actors for the minor Soul Reapers those that don't appear very often in the arcs.Spacedone 08:23, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

VIZARD DUBBED VOICES TONIGHT!
Can't wait for BLEACH tonight! We get to hear the rest of of the vizard's english dubbed voices. Also, does anyone have solid evidence(no wikipedia or anime news network) that kari wahlgren is in BLEACH.--Lemursrule 20:14, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

I actually wonder if I can get any of my predictions right this time. At any rate though, you do bring up a good point (I think it was brought up somewhere else) about Kari Wahlgren being in Bleach at all. I'm not 100% sure if she actually voices Mizuho Asano (actually, I think it sounds too different), and yeah, I wouldn't rely on Wikipedia or ANN either, since both have been proven to be wrong from time to time (especially ANN). Actually, I think Wikipedia got Kari's "Bleach credits" from this wiki. Arrancar109 23:07, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

yes, I metioned it last week, I finally found the time to put it in the forum. I am honestly thinking about emailing studiopolis and saying look can you give us a confirmed cast list. It is getting very confusing and I want to give the voice actors proper credit. I think Kensei will be voiced by Travis Willingham(mustang from full metal alchemist.) He has done some stuff for bleach before. He works generally in Texas (like vic) and since kensei is not seen on the anime on a regular basis, he is also non-union which means he can do bleach without breaking any rules.--Lemursrule 23:19, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm actually familiar with Travis Willingham's role as Mustang (it'd be hard not to be). Yeah, I didn't consider him as Kensei, but it would be a good fit. I also thought Beau Billingslea would make a good voice for Love. For some reason, I pictured Love sounding something like Jet Black from Cowboy Bebop (who Beau also voices), and since he did Edrad, he might come back to do Love too, since it's obvious Edrad's not coming back. As for Kari Wahlgren, if she has indeed lent her voice to Bleach, I always pictured her voicing either Neliel or another female Arrancar (not Harribel though). But again, this really depends if she's in Bleach at all. Arrancar109 23:52, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah Kari would make a perfect nel. She has a cute voice and is very well down for her sexy voices in video games. I know Kari voices emma frost in wolverine and the x-men which is also produced as studiopolis where bleach is dubbed. For all we know bleach might have turned into a union dub due to the great ratings it has been getting lately( according to adult swim bumber that aired last night,bleach has been #1 last three weeks in a row, thats why they ordered more double episodes at least through september.)I think we will find out more about this in the coming months. Plus Steve blum would make an excelent spazel apporo granz if he uses the voice he did on gurren lagon, might be better than his ulquiorra voice. I thought they would have gotten ezra wentz (mao from code geass)to do it but he did ilfort instead.--Lemursrule 21:34, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, the dub premiered. Seems like they cheaped out somewhat. Lisa sounds like she's played by Michelle Ruff, Mashiro sounds like Janice Kawaye, and Rose... was just awful. But I couldn't identify him, Hachi, or Love. Any thoughts? Arrancar109 05:21, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Is Mashiro voiced by the same person who does Yuzu? I'm thinking Love was Richard Epcar, but probably not. Can't really place any of them. But, Lisa was definately not Ruff. MementoMoriBlack 05:42, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I would hope not, because it sounded like Ruff to me, but yeah, I think they need to be a bit more diverse. As for Mashiro... yeah, I definitely heard the similarty between hers and Yuzu's voices, so I'm pretty sure. Probably a good thing too, since Janice only voiced one character in the show before this. I will say this much though: I actually expected Julie Ann Taylor to play Lisa, since she's played several roles of a serious female character in the past (I was actually surprised when I first found out she played Ririn). Arrancar109 05:47, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I personally had no problems with any of the voices. I thought rose was fine. I think Janice does do Mashiro. She has one distinct voice. Before Bleach she did a show for nickelodeon called my life as a teenage robot where she played the main character jenny. Jenny and yuzu sound exactly the same. Of the new voices tonight, I thought Lisa, Mashiro, and Kensei's voices were the best. Johnny and G.K were funny as hell.--Lemursrule 07:31, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm not saying there is something wrong with their voices (though Rose could have done one of his lines better), but I do think that they shouldn't cheap out on some voices, since Bleach has a lot of characters. Hence, I hope I'm wrong about Lisa's voice actress. Also, apparently, there's a chance that Hiyori isn't played by G.K. Bowes (see Hiyori's talk page). I... don't know whether to believe that or not, but if it is true that she does not play Hiyori, I still wonder who it was. Arrancar109 07:38, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

No I'm 100% Hiyori is G.K. Hiyori's voice sounds a lot like one of the voices G.K has on her demo on her site. Travis is playing love. I just put one and one together after I watched a rerun of FMA. Rose is Troy Baker(At least troy finally got a non-filler character or a character that doesn't do something until nearly the end of the series*cough* Snizel code geass r2*cough.)I love lisa dubbed voice. I thought it would be wendee lee again,(no offense I think she's an amazing voice actor.) But, I was plesently surprised. It was one of the biggest unexpected surprizes of the night.--Lemursrule 07:50, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, admittingly, I'm not too familiar with Bowes' work outside Memories of Nobody, so I'm not the right one to judge. After watching the episode a second time, I am starting to think I was wrong about Lisa (wrong about her being voiced by Michelle Ruff), which I think is good. Not so sure about Rose, but then again, most of Baker's roles I've heard are his deep voiced roles, so I think it's possible. Like I said, I originally thought Lisa was going to be voiced by Julie Ann Taylor, since she's voiced several serious characters (Lisa's mostly serious), but I don't mind this voice. I'm still hoping she's not voiced by Michelle Ruff though. My point for this is that if there aren't enough voice actors, then some characters are going to sound too similar to each other. Arrancar109 08:01, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I think lisa is voiced by Tara Platt but i have a feeling i'm wrong (she voiced Temari on Naruto BTW)--Kisukeiscool100396 13:05, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

It doesn't sound like Lisa is voiced by Michelle Ruff since her voice does have a distinctive pitch to it so its usually easy tell it's her regardless of the character. She did Yoko (Gurren Lagun), Rita (Tales of Vesperia), and Fujiko (Lupin III); all them having that that distinctive pitch in the voice even all the characters have different personalities. Its definitely Dave Mallow as Kensei since the voice is similar to Ansel Rombard (Yukikaze).Spacedone 08:02, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Nakeem Greendina
Sorry for changing the subject, but getting back to Grimmjow's Fraccion, I know that the voices are: Shawlong (Michael McConnohie), Di Roy (Spike Spencer), Yyfort (Ezra Weisz), and Edrad (Beau Billingslea). But what about Nakeem's voice. He only speaks two lines, and it sounds like J.B. Blanc to me. Anyone have ideas?Orochidayu 16:11, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Chad's EN VA changed?
I'm sure many of you have noticed that Chad's English voice changed at Episode 86 during the fight with Sawatari. What happened? Does Jamieson Price (Chad's EN VA) have a current health problem, beacuse he's had that voice since the middle of the Bount saga. I've also never heard about any changes to the voice either. Has anyone found out why yet? Orochidayu 16:24, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

God, I hate this rumor. It's always been Price. It sounded different because the Bount arc is well, retarded. It's got bad writing, and as a result, they managed to screw up a couple of characters. Notice in episode 86-87 how much Chad is, y'know, talking? Something he doesn't do all that much? The performance seems different because the character is basically OOC. Also, as of the current canon arc, I'm not hearing a difference in the slightest anymore. MementoMoriBlack 17:58, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Laura Bailey vs. Janice Kawaye
Alright, for a few weeks now, there has been some confusion over who voices Mashiro Kuna. I used to be one of those who believed it was Janice Kawaye, but after watching episodes 126 and 127 in the dub version now, I'm convinced it's Laura. I used to not think so because I think people did prefer Laura over Janice and believed that it did influence their judgment. I remember a few weeks ago people thought she voiced Hiyori as well, which further fueled this belief. But yeah, now that I've watched episodes 126 and 127, I believe it's Laura, though I can still be wrong. While I don't think it's wrong anymore, I think it's a safe bet to say that it's her. At this point, the only things that can completely contradict this is either Viz Studios, or Laura herself. Arrancar109 06:24, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

I am pretty sure its laura, because even though laura does do stuff with funnimation,she is a non-union voice actor and last time I checked(although we might hear news of a change) bleach is a non-union dub. Laura has the same situation as vic, mainly work in texas,but occationally do work in LA for reoccuring characters like mashiro and ikkaku. I would try contacting studiopolis(which produces the dub) or contact laura, and if you do decide to contact studiopolis ask for a full cast list so that we can give the actors their proper credit.--Lemursrule 21:24, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Who should voice the Espada
Here is a list of actors who would be on my fantasy cast list:

Starrk-Travis Willingham

Barrigan-Joe J. Thomas(voiced sawatari the old bount)

Harribel-kira vincent Davis(lucy in Elfin Lied)

Nnoitora-Quinton Flynn

Zomari Leroux-James Earl Jones(hey I can dream can't I)

Spazel Apporro Granz-Steve Blum

Aaroniero -Karen Strassmen & John DeMita(he voiced Shrieker near the begining of the anime)

Former Espada and Former fraccion

Nel-Kari Walhgren

Luppi-Yuri Lowenthal

Pesche-Jack DeSenna(if he can get is voice a tad deeper,since he did sokka, I think he has a great carrer as a voice actor ahead of him.)

Dondachakka-Jamison Price(I can't think of anyone else at the moment)

Tell me what you guys think. --Lemursrule 22:05, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

My opinions:
 * Starrk - Crispin Freeman (if Union Dub) or Travis Willingham
 * Barragan Luisenbarn - William Knight (he voices old dudes)
 * Tia Harribel - Susan Dalian or Mary Elizabeth McGlynn
 * Neliel Tu Oderschvank - Kari Wahlgren
 * Nnoitra Jiruga - Richard Cansino (assuming he hasn't retired) or Quinton Flynn
 * Szayel Aporro Granz - Any voice actor who can do a soft male voice
 * Aaroniero Arruruerie - Kim Strauss (Kaien)

I really don't have anyone in mind for Zommari or Aaroniero, but Szayel always had a soft voice, and any voice actor capable of doing that should probably get to voice him. If Union Dub, then Freeman would be included in this, since he voiced Van Argiano in Blood+, and Van Argiano does have a soft voice. I guess maybe Keith Silverstein could voice one of the Espada too. Arrancar109 22:17, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

I didn't think about freemen but good choice. Steve can do soft voices he did a character in gurren Lagon(I can't remember the name but he was the flamboyant/gay engineer, I think.) I was also wondering is kim in Bleach anymore, I heard that J.B Blank voices Sajin now, not sure if this is true or not.For aaroniero I was refering to the two heads. I like strassmen's voice she used for dalk and I would like to hear John again. Richard Cansino was actually in Bleach recently he played Daiji Hirasago (The Bull of Kusajishi). I noticed that they have been getting a lot of people from Lupin III latley. Let me know if you think of any other characters--Lemursrule 23:09, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

i think Luppi should be voiced by Vic Mignogna--Kisukeiscool100396 22:25, 21 June 2009 (UTC) Vic would work too!--Lemursrule 23:10, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

I think that just came from Anime News Network, which I've made no secret that I don't trust them in the least. Either way though, I think they'd try to get Kim back at least for his Kaien Shiba roles. Even if Kim didn't want to stay for "one-liners", the episodes remaining with Kaien Shiba's appearance (including Aaroniero) might be enough for him to reprise him. Also, I'm not sure about Luppi, but I thought Vic might potentially voice Ggio Vega, since he also voiced Edward Elric of FMA... and both characters are short. Arrancar109 23:18, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Vic as Ggio would be perfect! any opinion on who should be casted as the fraccion or privion espada?did you read my post on bleach union/non-union under laura baily vs. Janice Kayawe?--Lemursrule 23:23, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw. Bleach becoming Union would be a dream come true though. At least then it'd open the door for some other voice actors, like Freeman and Blum, since they're only known to do Union. Anyway, as for other Fraccion/numeros, I haven't thought much of them, other than a few, since there are a lot of them. For the ones I've thought of so far I'd say this:


 * Ggio Vega - Vic Mignogna
 * Choe Neng Poww - Jamieson Price or Peter Spellos
 * Apache - Philece Sampler
 * Sun-Sun - Julie Ann Taylor or Laura Bailey (haven't thought much, but I'd say serious, yet also mocking voice with her)

That's it so far. I haven't thought much of the Numeros or the Privaron Espada, though maybe some voice actors who only barely touched Bleach (like Philece) may want to have a bit more of a solid role instead of mere background characters. Arrancar109 23:47, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Greg Eagles as the voice of Zommari would be the greatest thing ever. (He was the voice of Grey Fox in MGS, Peter Stillman in MGS2, and Garcian in killer7).ShotandBotched 02:49, 23 June 2009 (UTC) I know who greg is, but I did not know he did dubs. I know him as the voice of grim, in the grim adventures of billy and mandy. He would make a great Zommari.--Lemursrule 03:50, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Current Espada: 1st. Stark - Crispin Freeman would work well especially if he used his Justy Ueki Tylor voice which fits Stark's personality. 2nd. Barragan - William McKnight pretty much has the voice for old dudes voicing Aramaki in Ghost In The Shell. 3rd. Harribel - Mary McGlynn, she has yet to show up in Bleach after being in Naruto, GITS, Code Geass, etc. 5th. Nnoitora - I can't think of anyone else offhand. 7th. Zommari - I can't think of anyone else offhand. 8th. Szayel - Cam Clarke, if you want a soft male voice he can pull them off having played Max Sterling in Robotech. 9th. Aaroneiro - Definitely retain the voice actor for Kaien since he takes the appearance of him initially, but I can't think of anyone who would do the voices for the heads in the jar.

Privaron Espada: Dordonii - Someone capable of pulling off a Spanish since his name implies he is Spanish. Circci - Someone who pulls off a stuck up female since her manga personality implies as such. Ganbeten - Beau Billingslea using his Jet Black voice?

Former Espada: Nel - I'd definitely agree with Kari Wahlgren since she does tend to get cast as young/teenage girls such as Kyon's sister (Haruhi Suzumiya), Anemone (Eureka 7). She did the Vespa chick's voice in FLCL so she can definitely pull off the wacky side of the character as well.Spacedone 04:52, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Starrk - Liam O'Brien Barragan - Steve Kramer (He did 3rd Hokage voice so can do old guys) Harribel - Mary McGlynn Nnoitra - Steve Blum's Orochimaru voice Zommari - Keith Silverstein (SC III's Zasalamel) Szayel - Doug Erholtz or Cam Clarke's Liquid Snake voice Aa - Frank Welker & Chris Latta (Megatron & Starscream) Well, I can always hope

TomServo101 08:06, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

New Voice actors?
Hey, did anybody else check out the credits to yesterday's Bleach episodes? It seems that they finally updated them. I'm wondering who does which role at this point... unless they're minor characters, but still, I think it's worth noting here:


 * Elle Deets
 * Erin Fitzgerald
 * Phineas Willow
 * Chris Kent

These are the only ones on there I didn't recognize. They also had Dave Mallow and Tara Platt, but we already know who they voice. Arrancar109 21:27, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

I actually posted something like this last week. I know two people though, but I am not sure which roles they play. Erin Fitzgerald is from canada and used to work for ocean group. Recently she moved to the LA area. You might know her better as the voice of nazz from ed, edd, and eddy and she voiced Kodachi Kuno in season 5 of Ranma ½. And Chris Kent voices Rufus from Street Fighter IV. The others I don't know but I hope this helps. Plus we get to see harribel, starrk, Nnoitra, and hear wonderweiss and luppi's english dub voices in 2 weeks. Episode 138 air August 1st at 12:30 am. --Lemursrule 02:00, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Who should voice the Espada
Here is what I would choose:

Starrk - Travis Williams (Love)

Barragan - Joe J. Thomas (Sawatari)

Tia - Melodee M.Spevack (Birdramon from Digimon Season 1)

Nnoitra - Richard Cansino (Daiji - Kusajishi's Bull)

Zommari - Peter Lurie (Jidanbo)

Szayel - Crispin Freeman (Itachi from Naruto)

Aaroniero - Kim Strauss (as Kaien), Doug Stone (True Form)Orochidayu 01:35, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I also think that Luppi should be voiced by Henry Dittman (Kabuto from Naruto) and Nel I'm not sure about.Orochidayu 01:37, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Bowes vs Lee
I'm somewhat glad to say that ANN has said that hiyori is voiced by Mela Lee, not Bowes (Senna from the first movie). Orochidayu 21:41, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Ditto. I'm not sure if they're right that it's Mela Lee (I'm not familiar with her work), but yes, I have heard that Bowes herself has confirmed that she does NOT voice Hiyori. Arrancar109 22:22, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
