If you wanna be an ass, it's "Honda Tooru" (Or "Honda Touru", or "ホンダ トウル") - But let's not be an ass :twisted:

Kyou is my favorite, He is just so cool. The anime is just so lovable and halarious, I fell in love with the series when I first saw it, and yes the Fruits Basket dub is good, but Touru's voice kinda got annoying afer awhile, I still like her though.

I Agree with you on the voice actors dubbed are better than the subbed.

Kyo is my favorite thought.

Tohru's voice is way better than the japanese. I had to watch 3 eps subbed to get use to it, but I can't stand Yuki's girlly voice.

It's the nature of characters like that. Watch some subbed Card Captor Sakura. The character Yukito is similar. Hell, their names are even similar. If you check out the special features on the second disc, there's an interview with Yuki's voice, who is actually a female. (A rather outstanding actress, too, if I may say so myself.. has had many major roles, both male and female.)

Oh yeah, I just remembered... watch unsubbed Gundam Wing. Quatre has a female seiyuu too.

I know of a lot of female voice actors doing male voices, in mean the first 3 seasons of ranma even male ranma was do by a woman. Even if the female voice actor is good I can't get into the voice.

Oh :P

I've never really watched the Ranma dub... Except for 2 episodes on disc 5 of season 3 where the audio is screwed up and its dubbed no matter what language you select...

Gonna mail it in and get it replaced.. it was a mass error in the box sets...

And of course, before Ranma on DVD, I just saw Fansubs :P

Venus did the voice of female ranma(dubbed), I am talking about male ranma(dubbed).
