Usurper King Zant - Dubbed

Link and Midna finally confront Zant the Usurper King in the throne room of the Palace of Twilight.
Midna - AderuMoro
Zant - EricDubyu
Ganon - OmegaOptimusSupreme

[@bd26otinger]

damn when he went all psycho, that was perfectly dubbed.

[@loki7936]

Woah, Zant's voice matches so well to his bipolar personality.

[@WhiffleWaffles]

That would be so hard to do in my opinion, and this person did perfect.

[@SharkDjiin]

Thank...you?

[@dedfuk419]

damn the dude that dubbed zant did a great job.

[@satoshikatsumoto9007]

Kind of reminds me of Elder Toguro.

[@ichihimefan91]

I know right

[@DisasterEnby]

I always imagined Zant would have this ridiculously loud & high pitched voice that made your ears bleed if you even looked at him

[@siekste]

+Gasterblastermaster93 sameeeee

[@AlvinaYunoa]

yeah cuz he'll be like HIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[@echostre9716]

Yeah! And that slime in his mouth and stuff? I always thought he had just been crazy. XD

[@usurperkingzant7607]

Of course I would have a loud voice, I'm one of the two craziest villains in the legend of Zelda series

[@TheSwolOne]

Usurper King Zant boi you still got yo ass kicked doe

[@cerileyn]

Okay....Zant's voice actor? A+++ That was EPIC!

[@johnsantos507]

What about Midna's voice?

[@SurailXTX]

... ehhhhhh I could've done better to at least make it SOUND like it was from the games original voice actor midna was pretty close but zants voice is nasally without his mask on and deep with it on but still good effort

I love this zant voice actor because he can become calm to insane in a second

[@weeniefang]

Zant's voice...I can't even.

[@johnsantos507]

Imagine?!

[@RebeccaETripp]

This is pretty cool! I like Midna's voice especially, but Zant had some really powerful moments!

[@victoriachamberlain4638]

Holy shit! I've found a Zant voice that I actually like! I mean, I've seen some good Zants here and there, but EricDubyu's... It's perfect! It's exactly the voice you would imagine a man like Zant. EricDubyu is going on a character that has questionable sanity, and he really brought that to the table. When Zant started talking, we got a calm and collected villian, but that changed when he started talking about the Twili Royal Family, and EricDubyu captured that change perfectly! I've seen people keep Zant's voice the same in both sides of his personality, while some don't change it when he has his mask on! Anyway, you can almost feel the insanity and madness coming from Zant by the way is voice sounds, and I love that! Zant is actually my third favorite Zelda villain, and I want my favorite characters in video games to have voices fitting them. And this was accomplished with both Ganon ( my first favorite Zelda Villian ) and Zant.

[@Vigriff]

I like Xanauzumaki's version of Zant.

[@victoriachamberlain4638]

He's funny, and I like them both actually. Their both awesome at voice acting.

[@alijahaskew4644]

Who is your 2nd favorite villain?

[@chaoticcranium]

I needed to comment and say how great this is, especially Zant. The thing I always loved about this character is how stoic and menacing he is for most of the game. Then you confront him, he removes his ornate and fearsome mask (literally and figuratively), and he transforms 180 into the crazed, petulant man-child he really is. Then the boss fight that follows is completely insane. One of the best twists in the game, and you captured that transformation perfectly in your dub.

[@scottletourneau4571]

See for me, I played Hyrule Warriors first and immediately fell in love with him and just how creepy he was! And then when I encountered him in Twilight Princess, it was ultimately more unsettling to see him so bone-chillingly sane. Then at the end of his story, you see him do his classic body twist. I freaking love this character!

[@Nintendoman01]

Never really thought of Midna as having a British accent, but you make it work. And the way Zant's voice actor shifts between cool as a cucumber to crazy as hell at the drop of a hat fits quite well.

[@lemancitriton260]

ryme

[@yamborghini391]

I have to say that this is the perfect voice for zant

[@mwwill5465]

OMG!Zant's voice,the way it changed...Awesome!

[@PeppersnoopTT]

Zant's performance was fantastic! I almost couldn't believe it!

[@chaironathursday59knuckles54]

The way Zant transfers from calm and composed to PSYCHOTIC AND INSANE over and over is just amazing.

[@stanczyka2407]

5:26 **slowly backs away from Zant**

[@totizedger]

That Zant voice is literally perfect, i like how he shifted from being calm to crazy and everything is done with emotions compared to many other dubs where the performance is flat without any feelings portrayed in their voices, i also really liked Midna’s voice as well :)

[@BuildItCreations1]

The Zant voice actor was spot on. He could go from serious and collected, to insane and crazed in a split second! Bravo!!

[@Cyrotechnium]

Zant's voice fits him well

[@CreditR01]

Holy shit. If Zant actually had a voice like this in the game, I might have liked him ten times more. YOU GUYS KILLED IT, VERY WELL DONE!

[@AngeredIrken03]

1) This is amazing; I'm honestly surprised I haven't found these videos sooner 2) All I can hear now is Midna with a slightly english accent and for some reason its extremely funny 3) I know I don't really matter but you got a sub because you're awesome

[@AderuMoro]

Of course you matter, ahaha, thanks for your comment and sub :D

[@Nicksolo85]

Awesome voice acting (just subscribed recently). To me, Ganondorf sounded like the Cave of Wonders from Aladdin or even Dr. Claw from the old Inspector Gadget cartoon.

[@SonicSanctuary]

dude that zant was great!

[@panflute6109]

+ThatOnlyAlpha definitely

Titanium 325 but you guys mean that in like a good way right?

[@justyouraveragepotato2389]

+SonicSanctuary That actually made me laugh.

[@Sophia_Gamer-pg1ne]

5:40 look at links face I love his reaction, I love when someone gasps or surprised

[@Keanine]

I seriously love your Midna voice, it really fits the character!

[@johnsantos507]

I'll give Midna's voice an A+++.

[@irlquicksilver]

I love Zant's voice, it fits perfectly!

[@joshuaweston6531]

I don't know about his calm voice...but the moments he loses it are absolute gold voice acting and EXACTLY what Zant should be! I'm glad to see that some people understand what makes Zant tick!

[@Girfan12345]

Zant reminds me of Lemongrab from adventure time

[@lemonfresh289]

***** Sir, may I quote you on that?

[@emolgalord9238]

My god your so right

[@slugooey]

I love the way you captured Zant's voice. I've pretty much imagined it the same way you portrayed it here: a deep voice, calm until he had one of his freak out moments. Ive always assumed that with how many shrill noises he'd make.

[@toongirl007]

Fantastic voice acting! X3

[@bucket9144]

I love it. Zant comes across as crazy, but still super intimidating. And Midna is sassy and proud.

[@thesergalladaf6902]

The voice acting is not only top notch, but the fact that it changes from menacing to psychotic, back and forth, is just icing on the cake!

[@ThunderbirdIV25]

Midna: Come on, Link! We have to save Zelda from Ganondorf! Link: Didn't she fade away from existence when she saved you? So how can Ganondorf have her body? It doesn't exist anymore. Midna: ... Anyone else notice this? :P

[@Chaosmarauder]

Like many, I don't think she faded away I believe she was taken somewhere by either the sages or the light spirits and this place was SUPPOSED to be a secret unreachable area. But as we all know when it comes to those areas and ganondorf..well yeah lol

[@maxg2335]

one of the many plotholes in this game

[@nicoletta3239]

You're deadly wrong there. Yes, Princess Zelda sacrificed herself to save Midna, but that happened in the Twilight Realm, meaning that Zelda only dissapeared from that world. In the Light Realm, the princess remained safe in the Hyrule Castle.

[@supergamer5121]

Max G Well In Wind Waker Ganondorf said that lifting the master sword broke the seal of his power. Which apparently doesn't include creating giant birds to fetch people or giant monsters infesting temples removing the power from the master sword. For a guy who apparently had a seal on his power, he seemed to be able to use a lot of good spells.

[@Larissa-up7lu]

I think Zelda like, put her spirit into Midna. I believe that Zelda gaveMidna her triforce. In the scene, she lit up, her hand too. Then she disappears? Also, Midna mentions cherished power, and looks at her hand....so, I mean xD

[@hudesko5397]

Okay, I'm gonna be perfectly honest. I've always though that voice acting in Zelda games is a bad idea. However after seeing this... it could actually work. I still prefer my Zelda game without a voice acting but I definitely won't be as negative towards it than before. You did a great job!

[@shin_a]

Wow I never expected a voice like this would suit zant

[@TurretsGunZ]

Jeez..... My face went completely shocked when I heard the incredible Malice and insanity in Zants voice. PERFECT!

[@loeaglelo]

I was very surprised when I first heard Zant speak...but then he started losing his marbles, at which point I was like "Yesssssssss!" Great job with this.

[@Keldeox]

There look at him like: This guy insane.

[@MrThischarmingman2]

Eric really ought to audition for Zant for ZeldaUniverseTV's Twilight Princess fan dub. P.S. Hope you get a role in that.

[@cinnamon_berry7413]

"You want to know why none would call you king? It was your eyes, Zant... ...they're not sparkly enough." XD Love the voice acting!

[@renm0]

it has been 5 years since the first time I heard this dub and I'm still coming back to it because I'm still amused on how good this is

[@renm0]

6 years and I'm still coming back

[@renm0]

8 years and counting

[@bubbles46853-ep9if]

I am always super scared when I click on a fandub...you never know how it'll turn out...but then it either blows up in your face, or puts on a dazzling show to remember! This is the latter here!

[@MetaKnuxXbeats]

That Zant voice is AWESOME!

[@jovunti]

i feel like Zant should have been voiced by Light Yagami, the english one of course.

[@ichihimefan91]

I was thinking the same thing come to think of it he does sounds like light Yagami from death note

[@WhiffleWaffles]

Zant's voice actor is chef kisses👌 And Midna's accent fits perfectly with her character, love the dedication of all the voice actors who do dubs.

[@JamesTAbernathy]

Wow. Just wow. Switching the tone of your voice from posh to raving mad seamlessly, you perfectly captured the insanity of Zant. Bravo!

[@sludawg1]

Zant sounded normal but then it kind gotten creepy. You do well with these dubs.

[@user-jf2qz2mb7d]

The background music at 0:50 really makes the dialogue a lot more creepier. The perfect build up to Zant's Insanity. 😨

[@westleigh11]

The insantity in Zants voice and the rage. Was spot on, perfect voice acting!

[@HikariMichi42]

Wow, this is really impressive. All the voices are PERFECT, good acting and recording, listening to this was a pleasure!!!!

[@acrazyweeb7225]

I love the transition from dark and calm villain (like infinite’s voice actor) to a raving lunatic.

[@3rdDayfan777]

That was an absolutely incredible performance by everyone! EricDubyu was perfect, the way he descended into the maddened, insane guttural voice! Truly spectacular!

[@AzureMoebius22]

Having Zant's voice turn all screechy when he starts losing it just sells it so well

[@heckwaffle2363]

the serious tone that slowly escalates into screaching its just the most perfect thing ever tbh!

[@maskedbeast1681]

I remember re-playing this and being so sad that he died, he was such a great villain and I think your voice captured him so well

[@Mannetasi]

Oh my God this is freaking perfect, you deserve a medal for this dude.

[@verdethestarwarrior1088]

THIS IS AMAZING!! I never thought Midna would have a British accent, but it fits!

[@Moonvamp410]

Bloody hell, Heidi. You just make the cutest Midna. That, and the other did some fine work, especially EricDubyu with his insane shenanigans, and OmegaOptimusSupreme with his surprisingly deep growl. 0_0

[@echostre9716]

To me, this is both funny and awesome. I find it cool how we all picture voices differently. The one you did with Ghirahim? I imagined his voice...well, more feminine, actually XD And then I thought Zant would have a higher-pitched voice due to his looks. This is amazing. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos!

[@TheWolfpack-tv4ft]

This video is amazing! The voice actors fit these characters so well

[@superscaryguy01]

Nice job! You did a good job on choosing Zant's voice actor, too. In fact, you found the PERFECT VA for Zant! :)

[@marcospinheiro352]

Midna's voice is so flawless! Well done, AderuMoro. Not to mention that Zant's voice and Ganondorf are so perfect too.

[@superblanco444]

Idk how you do it but the voices fit the two perfectly. I just love the cool, calm voice zant has when hes sitting at the throne with half the mask on, it makes him so mysterious and just plain epic! ^w^

[@deddedbyglamour]

Midna's voice is adorable.

[@suicat]

While I wouldn't want voice acting in Zelda games, this was actually done really well. At first I was disappointed in Zant'a lack of crazy, but then there it came! I love the noises he makes when he's hitting the ground.Also, the voice and personality you gave him makes me think of Caster from Fate Zero.

[@Lwiis64]

EricDubyu's portrayal of Zant is really good. Especially his wicked voice. AderuMoro was perfect, as always.

I was expecting something cringy but damn this was incredibly good

[@MangleFoxy]

[@DCLeadboot]

Heh, wow! Great voice-acting there! Midna and Zant sounded spot on! If only they were able to include such full-voice dialogue in the actual game...

[@Puppet_U]

I like the voices of Zant and Ganondorf. Midna's voice i like it, but it kind of feels like a British accent doesn't really fit her character. I don't know it's just my opinion though, but still cool.
