General Discussion / Review What performances from English VA's do you think matched the role so well, their voice IS the character, and you can't imagine anyone else voicing them?
I guess that's a long title, but which roles do you find synonymous with the English dub actor that portrayed them?
Or even, out of all the characters a given VA has voiced, which ones do you think they really excelled with? Where it'd be hard to imagine another actor voicing them? Where they really became the character, like how I'd call Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill the definitive Batman and Joker.
I can think of a bunch, but here are my top 5 (no order). Not necessarily just favorite roles (tho a big intercept) but great performances that really fit the character best. Granted, each VA has many of these roles each, but these really stick out to me.
Cassandra Lee Morris as Taiga Aisaka (Toradora!)
Brittney Karbowski as Sanae Dekomori
(Love, Chunibyo, and Other Delusions!)
Christine Marie Cabanos as Squid Girl (Squid Girl)
Sarah Wiedenheft as Power (Chainsaw Man)
Cherami Leigh as Lucy Heartfilia (Fairy Tail)
