Favorite voice actors?

[Verrine]

I'm a big fan of Japanese RPGs and a few anime dubs, and great voice actors are part of what make that experience. In video games, anime dubs, and etc., are there any voice actors' work that you enjoy?

Just to name a few of my favorites:

Johnny Yong Bosch:

• Ichigo Kurosaki (Bleach)
• Lelouch Lamperouge (Code Geass)
• Yukio Okumura (Blue Exorcist)
• Emil Castagnier (ToS: DotNW)
• Guy Cecil (Tales of the Abyss)

Crispin Freeman:

• Commander Lindon (WoW: Scarlet Halls)
• Male Wizard (Diablo III)
• Itachi Uchiha (Naruto)

Brad Swaile:

• Light Yagami (Death Note)
• Rock (Black Lagoon)

Yuri Lowenthal:

• Luke fon Fabre (Tales of the Abyss)
• Suzaku Kururugi (Code Geass)

John DiMaggio does a good bit of video game acting. Wakka in Final Fantasy 10, a couple characters in Final Fantasy 12 (Miguelo and Gilgamesh come to mind), and of course Marcus Fenix. Other than that, no one really comes to mind. I'm not into anime enough to really get into any favorite actors, and most video games I play either don't have voice acting or aren't all that impressive. Ask me about western animation, though, and I can talk your ear off

i hate most anime that have been english dubbed based solely on teh fact that the actors aren't as good as the japanese actors doing it in the first place.

Keith Sarajzbaka (hell if I can remember his surname, but it's something like dis)

I just call him Keith Harbinger because he voices Harbinger in ME2.

Hm.

Male - Paul Eiding. He's done voice acting for a lot of cool Blizzard characters (narrator in Diablo, Aldaris in Starcraft) and I later found out that he did voices for characters in some of my favorite childhood cartoons (Swat Kats, Pirates of Dark Water). I always instantly recognize his voice when I hear it.

Female - Probably Karen Strassman. She's voiced a lot of my favorite female characters. She does a really good "psycho chick" voice (Mileena in Mortal Kombat 2011 is a good example).

Also, she is very attractive.

[Hammerfest]

Kevin Conroy's Batman is the one I "hear" in my head when I read the comics.

Peter Cullen's swaggering, John Wayned Optimus Prime is also a favorite.

I'm also a fan of all things Jeffrey Combs (the Question, various Star Trek roles).

Wakako Matsumoto Orochimaru

This woman has the best voice ever, also Orochimaru is voiced so great.
