Yes, I know exactly what you mean, Trainer Rachel.But her acting is getting better. In her defense though, it is hard to talk in a voice that isn't your natural one and be able to yell and everything while still staying in that voice. Trust me, I've tried, so I think that's why she may sound unemotional at times, because if she yells or whatever she may not sound like a boy anymore or something. You know what I'm saying?
And after seeing todays new episodes and the special, I agree with you. Her acting is getting better.
However, I still don't see any emotion in there. And I'm not liking that one bit...... X_X
Exactly.And that's the main problem here. She's not a proffesional voice actor.
And that makes me dislike her voice acting even more.
Her Ash voice just doesn't sound right. There's no emotion, and there isn't even a hint of Ash's original voice in there (like most of the other VAs tried to incorporate in their voices).
Also, I hate Sarah's reactions or "reacts" as they call them in the VA business. Every time Ash reacts to something, getting hurt, falling into a hole or something, those are terrible.
Veronica was DEFINITELY better at getting those right. I loved all of her reacts. They were great!!
That makes me wonder why Pokemon USA didn't approach Veronica Taylor in the first place.If you just let anyone be a voice actor, then you're going to have a much lower quality than if you stick to professionals. This is especially important in such a big role.
They knew she'd be the BEST person to do Ash's voice. So why didn't they want her, or even try to get her?
That's one thing I don't understand about this whole VA situation. They never approached any of the original VAs. But why? What was their reasoning behind that?
Anyway, on another note, you know how Maddie said they should technically have her name in the credits because they've been using some of the Pokemon voices she did?
Well, they should have Veronica's name in the credits too. I'm watching "Green Guardian" on CN right now, and I'm pretty sure they used Diglet's original voice (which was done by Veronica).
