Well of course, but the fact that if they really want to give Dento a cool motherfucker side(like his bedroom eyes give off)he's going to have some Keikaku in there.

That's what I want to know. The desc on the Best Wishes site said nothing of the sort.

I don't care if it was written by Emperor Akihito, it's not confirmed. I wouldn't be against her being Chinese, I don't care. It's not a fact yet.

According to rumour, Dento's VA is Mamoru Miyano aka Light Yagami. :eek:

Holy fucking shit! I knew his voice sounded like Tamaki... but I never thought it would be him.

I don't know why everyone's so psyched over Miyano doing Light's voice. Maybe it's because I don't really care for dramatic potato-chip eating man, but honestly, wouldn't his role of Tamaki (Ouran) be a better comparison of what type of role he'd play? I mean come on...Tamaki was a high class fancy guy, but he was also rather quirky and fun. Which seems like what we'll end up getting with Dento. Not "just as planned". :p


Yeah, that has nothing to do with how Dento's voice sound. As I said before, he gave me Tamaki vibes when I first heard him and apparently turns out it's the real guy who voices Tamaki. Go figure.

Whaa? Megumi Hayashibara isn't one of the "biggies?" :/
Yeah really. Pokemon has THE best female Japanese VA out there and people are going nuts over Mamrou. Save that enthusiam when Norio Wakamoto joins the cast, folks. Let's see if there's this same enthusiam for Dento's English VA.

Wow, Light is Dento? Well then, I'm calling it now: Dan Green will end up Dento's VA. I just can FEEL IT.

That reminds me, since Brock isn't a main character anymore Bill Rogers probably won't be part of the main cast after it's been like, 5 years? Especially considering he's been here ever since the VA switch.

Yuji Ueda on the other hand, giving up a role that he had for almost a decade must be heartbreaking. Though he does still voice Wobbuffet...

That is one of the reasons I think Brock isn't leaving, the Japanese doesn't treat their voice actors like crap. Yuji Ueda has played a major character on the show for over a decade and voiced a bunch of important Pokemon on the show. That is something that has made him distinct to the other main characters on the show, Misty, May, Dawn, Tracy, and Max didn't really voice any other characters on the show (and if they did it appears it wasn't for more than one appearance). I wouldn't think they would allow him to voice Pokemon and not have an important human character.

Uh...I don't really think this would be treating him like crap...guy's been voicing the same guy for ten years, I'd think letting him take a break from that would probably be a good thing.

Who is to say the actor himself doesn't want to give up the role?

This point exactly, how do we know Brock wasn't written out because Yuji had other aspirations other than Pokemon?

-Removing secondary VA comment that would've likely been against the rules-

Hey, no worries. Like Yuji Ueda, Bill Rogers voices lots of extra Pokemon. That variety and range will probably keep him on the list for a number of various episodes.

Just like Diamond & Pearl, the exciting part is getting to cast new actors in new roles, people who can bring new characters to life in their own way and style. I think that's why Dawn was really successful, because she was home grown. Where as characters like Brock, Ash, Team Rocket are in a sense just carrying over their usual personalities.

And hey, this time we've got 2 new characters to work with! And a female Professor, which I'm sure lots of people will enjoy.
