OMG YOU GAIS

VIC MIGNOGNA IS VOICING SWITZERLAND IN THE DUB FOR THE ANIME!
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I don't really know why there's Vic hate really- he apparently gets a role in every anime by funimation and maybe the other points is he's bad..?
  1. Funimation ALWAYS like, casts a popular VA in everything they can. A few years ago, Steven Blum was a VA used in LOTS of anime by Funi, many times a major character. If you watch the old anime late at night on Adult Swim, you'll hear his voice like, 3 times. It's the same with that Johnny Yong Bosch guy that is always in EVERY anime like holy shit, and he wasn't even good at voicing some of them. I freak out when I watch a new anime and I hear HIS VOICE.
  2. The only valid point to not wanting Vic. He was good as Edward Elric, but I can't say he was good for all the other roles he had. He sucked as his role in Bleach, and I vaguely remember his voice for Tamaki for Ouran, and it wasn't amazing.
So, getting the role of Switzerland makes sense. Edward and Switzerland have a lot in common as characters as being blond and temperamental and...
wait... I just had a thought...
*Looks it up*
I KNEW IT. THEY BOTH ALSO HAVE THE SAME SEIYUU. I KNEW IT.
Romi Park, you're awesome. Vic, you're ugly.
MOVING ON.
It's not confirmed, but it seems to be right. Vic was only good at a character like Ed, and what better role than Switzerland? Of course it'll be kind of odd hearing Vic's lower voice when I've always loved Romi's higher voice. Another instance Seiyuu>Voice actor. Well, that'll keep happening if every role Romi had is taken up by Vic.

On a random note, I had a creepy dream last night. I don't know if it was from the ice cream  I ate or the sushi I ate.

EDIT: I JUST HEARD THE PREVIEW CLIP OF THE HETALIA DUB. I COULD ONLY MAKE OUT AMERICA'S AND GERMANY'S VOICES THE FIRST TIME. OHMYGOD. *Goes and listens to it again*
EDIT 2: False rumour, he's actually voicing Greece... whut.

Hmm. I don't really know much about Vic Mignogna, except for he is apparently really annoying. And ugly. But, I guess if he's good at voicing Switzerland-like characters, he should be good at Switzerland? I certainly hope so.

ORLY? WHAT HAPPENED?

Ogod he's incredibly ugly.

Dude, I don't even remember the dream. It was just freaky, but it didn't have any cool people or characters.

HA! Ugly.

Oh well. Maybe next time. I wish I had dreams as exciting as yours, though. I always forget mine.

See, the night before I had a dream about monsters and we were trying to do something and all I remember is being in a car and I suddenly see Edward Elric and I go "Edward!" and I reach out for him, but he totally ignored me.
;^; My dreams are rubbing it in my face.

I'm a little on-the-fence for Wendee Lee... I liked her in the roles she did in Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw Star several years ago... but I'd have to question her with her roles in Bleach.
