if it was a large, hairy, burly man doing kitsune's voice, that would be an improvement. so i would take any of those accents over the hick accent anyday, including the burly man accent. Su is another real winner in the dub. i kinda imagined her sounding like Ed from cowboy bebop (in the dub), but instead she has some ridiculous half-assed accent that sounds nothing like the region she is supposed to be from.

Number 1 ranmas dub voice is not new the guy did it since season 3. Originally in the dub his voice was done by a girl. I prefer the guy voice actor. Kenshin in the sub is done by a girl shoot her.

I realise that the Ranma voice isn't new but in comparison to the other voice it is. Two the sub Kenshin voice master is a genius

She's great at doing a girls voice that's for sure. I'll have my kenshin dubbed.

For some reason males are intimidated by strong males who are also feminine. In this case, the voice. In case anyone doesn't know, the original voice of Goku was a female. It's that strong but sensitive type...I like it personally. It's better than listening to the dub where most of the male english voice actors sound like they are passing kidney stones in the dramatic scenes

But that's just my opinion.

I dunno, constipated English actors or Japanese actors screeching like their balls have been chopped off?

I knew my odd habit of speaking in a falsetto tone would someday come in handy!

True, but it's a shame that you had to acquire your falsetto tone through castration.

Yes, I lost my weewee in a tragic zipper accident as a child.
