    The Bleach Dub Thread

    OK, so now it's official that Bleach will be airing starting fall 2006 on AdultSwim. That means we're looking at a dub here (and pretty damn soon - seriously, it took Naruto ages to get a tv premier). So until the cast is announced, this is the thread to make speculations about who-will-voice-whom, which studio should handle this, or any other dub-related nonsense.

    It is not actually yet known which studio will be dubbing Bleach, but personally I think they might go with The Ocean Group. This is a Canadian studio that did Inuyasha, and now that Inuyasha is finished (isn't it?), TOC should be looking for another long series to dub. If Ocean doesn't dub this then it might be Studiopolis, meaning we'll see a cast very similar to Naruto.

    My own guesses for a cast? I have no idea. They might choose a total n00b to voice Ichigo, or they might use a more experienced actor (in which case, it would depend on the studio doing the dub). In the case of Ocean dubbing this, I think either Richard Cox or [the guy who does Miroku on Inuyasha] would be an ok choice. I believe Rukia should be voiced by Kari Wahlgren. This woman has such a good vocal range, and would fit Rukia perfectly. She's a great actress, but I know nothing of her affiliation with Viz, so chances are she won't be in this series. Other than that, I can't think of many other actresses who would be able to mimic Rukia's unique Japanese voice.

    And of course, if they don't choose Steven Blum to play Urahara I will send death threats.

    4Kids is not a dubbing studio, it's a distributor (which uses it's own voice actors). Viz Media has already acquired Bleach for a US release, and is completely unrelated to 4Kids.

    You'd think confirming that Bleach will air on AdultSwim would be enough to get rid of annoying rumors like "OMG 4KIDS IS GOING TO RAPE BLEACH"...but I guess it isn't.

    Also, I gave Orihime's voice some thought, and wondered if perhaps Lia Seargeant would be a good choice. For anyone who's watched the Trigun dub, she plays Millie. That kind of ditzy, yet caring voice would fit Inoue imo.

    Several VA's from Inuyasha (Ocean Group) are doing the Gundam Seed Destiny Dub, which is meh, I might add. Miroku is Rey, and Inuyasha is Auel, Seshomaru is in there somewhere too. Sorry I don't know their real names, but VA's are just the voice of the first charachter who I heard them play to me. (Which is why I can't watch Samurai Deeper Kyo dubbed, Yami Yugi DOES NOT pwn like Kyo ought to be pwning.) I don't know if groups work on multiple projects a lot but if they don't then Bleach will probobly be done by another group.

    Seshomaru had better be doing Dullindal! That guy's VA (can't remember his name either...) is one of the better English VAs out there. He was absolutely fantastic as Treize Kushrenada in Gundam Wing and his Seshomaru is easily the best voice on dubbed Inuyasha. He's got a calm, serious and brooding voice that works perfectly for 'mature, no nonsense' characters.

    edit - sorry, i realise that this topic is getting woefully off-topic... I guess it's got alot to do with the fact that we have very very little facts on the Bleach dub to discuss... and speculation can (and will) include every wild thought out there...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I also like Sesshoumaru's (spelling?) voice. It's one of the better ones from the Inuyasha cast (I can't stand Kagome's voice). I think he would be good as Byakuya, because the two have similar personalities.

    A recent quote from Steven Blum on the Narutofan forums:
    p.s. Can't audition for Bleach. They went non-union.
    NO! Not only does this mean my fantasy of Blum playing Urahara probably will not come true, it also means that it's very likely Bleach will be dubbed by the Ocean Group in Vancouver. Those are the guys behind the Inuyasha dub (which I don't particularly like).

    This could be a good thing or a bad thing. For me, no Blum = a bad thing. Damn.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Well, well, looks like you'll be getting your "wish" of Sesshoumaru's English VA being in Bleach (mwahahaha).

    lol, I saw that a while ago somewhere else. I wanted to post it here but couldn't for the life of me think of where to put it.

    I could watch it all day, though. The song is catchy.

    so, in official dub news, it looks like four people have been confirmed.

    Kate Higgins as Karin Kurosaki and Michelle Ruff as Yuzu Kurosaki. Yuri Lowenthal and Steve Staley have also been confirmed, although Yuri's said he's playing a minor character.

    Thanks for the info Saman! Source plz?

    For anyone who's interested Kate Higgins is currently playing Sakura on Naruto. I don't really like her very much, but I can imagine her very well as Karin.

    Michelle Ruff is a seasoned VA who has awesome range. It's a pity they're wasting her on such a minor character like Ichigo's sis. I could have seen Ruff playing Orihime, but whatever.

    Yuri Lowenthal plays Sasuke on Naruto, so it would be great to have him reprise another one of Noriaki Sugiyama's roles and play Ishida, but apparently he's only playing a minor character.

    Steve Staley should quit the business. He's a fucking dork and can't act.The end.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
