R.I.P Billy Kametz
On June 9th, we lost a big name in the anime dubbing comminuty. Rest in Peace Billy Kametz, who’s been fighting against Stage 4 Colon Cancer.
Billy Kametz was the voice of Josuke Higashikata (Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures: Diamond if Unbreakable), Osomatsu (Osomatsu-San), Naofumi Iwatani (Rising of the Shield Hero), Macaque (Lego Monkie Kid), and many other memorable characters.
My heart goes out to Billy Kametz’s family and all of the people who loved his voice acting, and may his soul rest in peace.

What an utterly exhausting day, but a fantastic one nonetheless. I got to meet a few of the coolest English VAs in the industry. Johnny Yong Bosch (Tomioka, Sasori, Vash), Austin Tindle (Kaneki, Monoma, Knives), Landon McDonald (Enmu, Kamo, Kazuki), and Tony Oliver (Minato) to name a few.
Austin Tindle surprised me by being the sweetest and the funniest dude ever, and he noticed that I was in the audience at his Q&A panel before I met him 😭😭😭

Just got back from seeing The Boy and the Heron and its gorgeous (as expected) but right now my main thought is that Robert Pattinson NEEDS to do more voice acting, like I'm seriously so impressed he is completely unrecognizable in the film

It just dawned on me that the Netflix “One Piece” show using the original anime voice actors for the Japanese dub is a lot more complex than it seems. At first glance, it looks like the voice actors are just reprising their roles. They are already familiar with their characters, so it shouldn’t be too difficult doing the dub.
What makes things complex is that, technically speaking, these aren’t their characters. When Mayumi Tanaka goes to voice Luffy in the anime, she’s only working off of the script and directions from the director. When Mayumi goes to voice Luffy in the live-action, she’s actually working off of Iñaki Godoy’s performance. Even if you’re the greatest actor in the world and can replicate another performance perfectly, there’s still going to be distinct differences that will make you stand out. These differences could be anything, from dialogue changes to make the pacing work for the show to Godoy’s own little nuances that he adds to his version of Luffy.
It’s strange to think that even though Mayumi Tanaka is doing the Japanese dub for Luffy, she has to approach the same character from a different angle since this isn’t her Luffy, it’s Godoy’s. Same goes for the entire cast and their respective characters. It’s like they’re starting fresh.
