DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO | Characters and Voice Actors (English and Japanese)

[@TitanCrash630]

I’m super impressed how much of the original voice actors they were able to get back for this game. It’s been at least 2 decades for a good number of these guys

[@jackluffy7914]

Especially with the movie characters they only voiced them one time in the show and sometimes in the movies yet they are still back in the newer games

[@teddybeer6206]

One thing ironic about Raditz's voice actors: - English and Japanese voice actors were both in Yu Yu Hakusho. English was Yusuke and Japanese was Kuwabara.

[@veghesther3204]

About that the Yu Yu Hakusho dub was made by Funimation that's why Justin Cook voiced Yusuke in the Toonami dub and Hei was voiced by Android 17's current English Dub actor. Yes Justin Cook (Gohan) in the 1995 to 1998 DBZ dub also voiced Raditz and possibly Piccilo in the 1995 to 1998 DBZ dub.

Half of the English dub of DBZ is just Sabat talking to himself.

Looks like this is the last game Tōru Furuya will be voicing Yamcha due to the controversy that came out months ago about the actor, so any future games will have Yamcha's new JP VA doing the character or characters of Yamcha added to any game going forward

[@thetruej7872]

What controversy?

[@PrinceYamiUchihaCosplay]

@thetruej7872 he had an extramarital affair with a female fan 37 years his junior for around four and a half years, until September 2023. He also admitted to striking her once and pressuring her to get rid of a baby she was carrying inside her, so yeah, not exactly a good guy He's been dropped from a lot of projects because of what came to light. He also dropped out of his roles in Detective Conan and One Piece. Also, from Daima onwards, Toei has recasted Yamcha with Ryōta Suzuki so we'll likely be hearing how different Yamcha will sound like going forward

[@ShinOrochi]

​@@PrinceYamiUchihaCosplay"Will"? We can hear Yamcha talk in the first episode of Daima lol

[@PrinceYamiUchihaCosplay]

@ShinOrochi I haven't seen Daima yet, I'm waiting till it comes to Netflix, and I already know Yamcha's voice is gonna sound different as I just mentioned it with Toei recasting Yamcha's voice with Ryōta Suzuki

[@androidsenpai1462]

Yeah, he got recast with Suzuki Ryōta in Daima.

[@bumbayker]

I think there are more English VAs than the Japanese ones in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. Though Chris Sabat voiced several characters in the English dub, Masako Nozawa voices all versions of Goku and every male character in his family save for Raditz plus Turles and Goku Black. I was surprised that many of minor characters in DBZ were recast DB Kai in Japan. Strange that Yukitoshi Hori reprised his role as Android 19 but not Dodoria.

[@Mobik_]

No

[@teddybeer6206]

One main reason for the recasts on Kai from Z in the japanese version is that the original Z actors died.

[@veghesther3204]

Not just them some of the original Dragon Ball dub actors in Japan passed away years ago.

[@rbpb2168]

​@@teddybeer6206 not all of them. Ginyu's actor is still alive and doing voice work, Butta's too he is currently been casted as Tao Pai Pai in DB, Guldo's is still voicing Majin Buu.

Toppo's dub and the original Japanese sound surprisingly similar. Pretty close. Good casting. I don't know where I heard about James Marsters voicing Zamasu (maybe on Michael Rosenbaum's Inside of You podcast), but he redeemed himself for that live-action Dragon Ball movie. He even acknowledged the severe reaction it got. And damn I thought Goku's original voice is hard on the ears, but Krillin's is even worse.
