Still, I don't think I'll ever get used to the idea of Kurama being voiced by a woman.
And I like John Burgmeier's rendition of Kurama. He also did Shigure on Fruits Basket.

i can't believe that I saw the whole dubbed version first n then suddenly decided to change it to the subbed version at the end of the movie
i even had it loud and had my little brother yelling at me. "CHANGE IT TO THE JAP VERSION!! THE ENGLISH VERSION IS GAY"

That's funny. You know it's because innitially youko Kurama had Hiei's voice actor in the original series? Yeah. Hiei has the deepest voice in the cast, so when Kurama went youko the first time he switched from Megumi to Hiiyama to show the extreme difference. I'm surprised they bothered to reflect that in the dub. Kurama's dub voice is already deep - there's no point making Youko's voice even deeper.
It's just...weird that most of the YYH fans in this thread dislike the Japanese voice acting. The music with the characters singing their own songs was half the selling point of the series and you miss out on all of that with the dub. Not to mention the ovas, which won't be dubbed any time soon. Just weird. Should I blame Cartoon Network? o.O

Arigatomina wrote:Ah, I could be wrong. It sounded like Hiei's voice, though. And I get confused with "Dark Side Stories" - I only hear Noboyuki singing in that song - but it's listed as being sung by Hiei and Youko Kurama.
