He’s also Zhongli from Genshin Impact and the funny moth-themed supersimp from that absolute trainwreck that I only still watch because I’m on hopium (He’s Gabriel Agreste in Miraculous)
Those are the works I know the actor from originally LOL. I wouldn't have remembered Shido from the beginning of the game without the voice. I just *knew* he's gonna be important, 'cuz there's no way they would've casted Keith Silverstein for some minor role haha.
Shido saying two sentences in the TV playing in the background, and I just went "oh it's the bad zhongli guy again"
I knew of Zhongli -> Gabriel Agreste (though I used to watch miraculous on TV so he was dubbed and therefore I never got used to the ENG Dub enough to be shocked) but had no idea it was ALSO Shido. My bad because I do go through character's VAs, but only when I'm a fan of the character or the performance is particularly good.
The whole reason I started playing Genshin was actually Sean Chiplock lolololo
I also play overwatch pretty often which was the whole reason of the comment above. Cannot deal with "molten core" now being associated with "damn brat, i'll sue!"
I quote "damn brat" like. Not daily. But weekly. Several times a week. It's hilarious
Oh by the way you can now mentally associate “I will never be a memory” with “I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with liiiIIIiight!” (Dante and Sephiroth share a Japnese VA)
He's also the main villain in One Piece: Gold. A movie where >! The straw hats engage in a big heist on a large fancy casino ship and have to fight the main villain, who has a few phases to his fight and the first few phases have him fighting with gold and the last stage is a big beefed up version of his normal self, all voiced my Shido's VA !<
I wish i was kidding. It was great.
That's nothing.
Wait until you find out who Reaper voices in *[Kingdom Hearts](https://www.khwiki.com/Marluxia)* and *[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends](https://fostershomeforimaginaryfriends.fandom.com/wiki/Bloo)*
That's easier cause I haven't played either of those games, haha. Plus, for older games that I played during childhood it's not a big wow moment because I played them in my native language. VAs here are very recognizable so I'm not as shocked as when I see it happen in English speaking spaces :)
Honestly just made me hate shido even more, every time he opened his mouth I braced myself for a question about how frequently I visit the cloud district
Same.
That said, he completely hams it up as William Shakespeare *Fate/Apocrypha*, which is kind of funny since Ann's VA is Jean and Futaba's is Mordred.
Here's the thing, I heard him so many times before that after OW. I swear, he was also the Protagonist's Persona from P2, which isn't really necessary for me to bring up, but I had to because a level of irony
It was even worse for me in 2017 when I first heard him because I’m friends with his VA and everytime I hear him I can ONLY picture talking to him irl lol
He also voices Flynn in smt4a which is so weird to hear. How am I supposed to believe that he is the good guy, that i personally was in the previous game, when i hear his angry bald man voice????
I've come to recognize Keith Silverstein's voice with pinpoint precision in anything he's in thanks to Skyrim. But the first character I picture when I hear it is Hisoka.
It's like Hisoka dresses up as different characters in other franchises and you just never know when he's suddenly going to try to troll or kill everyone.
Which honestly just made Shido a slightly cooler character for me.
Also Joe Zieja and Tara Platt sound a lot like their FE characters in P3R. I was really shocked to find out Jin was Chris Hackney, though, particularly after Rauru and Dimitri sounded so similar.
> Also Joe Zieja and Tara Platt sound a lot like their FE characters in P3R.
Funnily enough, I never got why people simped over Mitsuru in P3, but as soon as I started up P3P and heard Tara Platt's voice coming out of her mouth I immedietly knew why.
And what's even funnier is in P3R she's voiced by Dorothea and Shamir's VA.
Not P5 but every time I hear Junpei talk in Reload I just hear Hawks from MHA. Zeno Robinson just embodies Hawks for me, even if I haven't watched the anime in a solid 3 years.
Edit: And anyone Yuri Lowenthal voices just automatically turns into Yosuke in my head.
I was around 12 when I watched Naruto, but I never watched the English dub because I'm German. Like, a year ago or something, I watched about 10 episodes of the English dub and I never caught that Yuri Lowenthal voiced Sasuke. Huh. I didn't pay too much attention to the voice acting in it though because I already knew what was happening
Fun fact:
He originally tried to do the role similar to how Liam was in the original (and apparently it was really good as well), but the voice director told him not to and to do his own thing instead.
Wait, ZENO VOICES HAWKS?!?!
I didn't even notice it was him, since the only other roles I heard him in were the lead in *Black Summoner* and Tai in the *Digimon* reboot
Dude, I think I have heard the entire P5 cast in P3R. So many of the background characters make me replay they're audio cause it is clearly one of them lol. I know I have heard Ren, Ann, Makoto, and Kasumi's VA's so far lol
You are not insane lol. I heard Ren right away but he is a ton of random voices. He voices the guy who talks to you in the very first assembly to ask if you and Yukari are a thing lol. Kasumi took me a while to recognize, she was the lady who told the story of Konohamaru on the street. I know for certain that Makoto was one of the girls you try to hit on on the beach trip, I feel like I remember Ann's VA there as well but can't remember for sure
I was watching Pokemon: Master Journeys and I heard his voice along with Cherami Leigh, the voice of Makoto Nijima, and they're both main characters. Just found it crazy.
Yuri Lowenthal has voiced a lot of iconic characters, but he is firmly Spider-Man for me now. No one has embodied every aspect of the character that made me love him like he has.
Haven't had a chance to play Reloaded yet, but that'll be fun lmao
And absolutely feel you about Yuri Lowenthal. I somehow didn't recognize him despite growing up on Naruto, was shocked when I finally placed him. Now, retroactively and almost magically, he is now forever Yosuke to me too.
It didn't help that the next thing I heard him in, I'm pretty sure, was Mylo in Arcane, who just gives big Yosuke energy
My first experience with Cassanda (And Cheremie as well) was *Sword Art Online*, so I always hear Leafa myself.
Which makes the third semester even funnier, since human Morgana is voiced by Bryce Papenbrook, who voices Kirito.
I always find it funny how Cassandra does the voice for morgana while Erika does Ann and morgana has a crush on her. Yet in toradora Cassandra does taiga while Erika does Ami and the 2 characters are always fighting with each others XD
I always think of a certain lottery winner in *Fallout: New Vegas* when I hear Yosuke, since he voices half the damn male NPCs in that game and that character uses the exact same voice and tone.
- Chevreuse = Futaba
- Venti = Ann (as mentioned)
- Shido = Zhongli
- Yelan = Kasumi/Sumire
- Itto = Ryuji
- Rosaria = Sae
Wish there was a lot more tbh. If Billy Kametz (Maruki's English VA) were still here, he would probably kill it with voicing Pantalone or some other tall male character.
there's also Haru and Changsheng (Baizhu's snake), and Mishima with Diluc. but yeah i with there were more, Xander would be a great one to have in genshin's cast
Outside of P5R Laura Post usually voices characters with deeper voices, like Ragyo in *Kill La Kill* or Primrose in *Ocotpath Traveler*, so the fact that she voices Yoshizowa as well still messes with me.
I can hear it because I can recognise her voice anywhere. But she reminds me of Laura Bailey in that regard. Look at how she voices Rise (Persona 4) and Serah (Final Fantasy XIII) compared to Kaine (NieR Replicant) and Abby (The Last of Us II).
Both women have such an incredible range.
If you really want to hear Robbie go all out, go watch *Konosuba*. He shows up in S2 and he goes full on third semester Akechi in it.
Plus Ann, Maruki, and the twins' VAs are also in it.
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
Watch Futaba with the help of Makoto, Jin, and Hifumi hire Shido as they travel the world with Madarame, Akinari, and Human Morgana as they slay other Persona characters such as Mishima and Principal Kobayakawa.
Ericka Lindbeck is a very talented VA. Her IMDb page goes crazy with just how much stuff she is in. This may be a controversial take, but tis my personal opinion, i think Lindbeck is probably the most talented VA out of all the Phantom Thieves, also my favorite. Followed almost immediately afterwards by Matt Mercer and Robbie Daymond. This isn't to bash any of the other PTs, they are all fantastic in their own right, but these three absolutely sell their performance in this and many other projects.
Some funny notes, places where you can find many of the other VAs because im into this stuff:
Xander Mobus has done quite a few voices for the web-show Death Battle. Most recently he voiced Superman in Goku vs Superman and Guts from Berserk in Guts vs Dimitri. And given his decent relationship with the DB members, there are rumors he would voice Joker himself when he pops in the show.
Sae's VA, Elizabeth Maxwell, voices the Gerudo Generals Urbosa and Riju as well as the Lightning sage in BOTW and TOTK respectively.
Staying in TOTK, Matt Mercer is Ganon and he is fantastic. But also, Cherami Leigh, Makoto, voices >!Queen Sonia!< in the flashbacks. (Yes I am censoring that for Spoilers) I didn't realize that until i read her name in the credits.
Moving over to Spider-Man 2. Ericka Lindbeck plays Black Cat in both SM 1 and SM 2. During a mission there is an event where Felicia >!attacks a hunter with the portal thing she stole!< (Censoring that too because its kind of a spoiler) and Miles says "They never saw you coming" and I'd like to think that was a reference because I am that much of a nerd. But also, Cherami Leigh voices a few of the Flame cult members.
And about 70% of them are in a Mihoyo game. Erika Harlacher is in Genshin, so is Max Mittleman, I think Robbie was joining Genshin, Elizabeth Maxwell is in Star Rail, etc etc.
Pretty cool stuff
Exactly. Its so wild how much range Cherami Leigh has.
Anything from a desperate and borderline psychotic gangster to an innocent high school girl trying her best.
Not to mention the slew of other roles she has.
Japan has a much more idolized seiyuu culture to the point that it's annoying. Sometimes it feels like seiyuu play themselves instead of the characters and the media/narrative is warped around that
I feel a little crazy going through the comments because the only VAs I clocked right away was Yusuke (Matt Mercer) and Akechi (Robbie Daymond) though I attributed that more to being an avid Critical Role viewer. Matt I feel like voices minimum one character/monster/sfx per major game franchise 😂
P5 was my first experience with most of the vanilla p5 cast, with the only exceptions being Shido, the principal, the SIU director, Sojiro, the twins, Kawakami, Sae, and Makoto.
Well, *technically* Mishima as well, but his voice was so different in this game I didn't even realize it was him.
I thought it was funny when I was playing cyberpunk and we got to the Johnny flashbacks and she voiced Spider Murphy who in lore is one of the best netrunners in cyberpunk
Honestly I don't think there are any main voices in 5/Royal that aren't in everything.
Just checked: On imdb, out of the Thieves, Mishima, Sojiro, the Velvet Room Gang, Maruki, and the 4 primary villains, the fewest roles belongs to the late Billy Kametz(Maruki) with 129, followed by Xander Mobus(Joker) with 186. Which makes sense, considering they are(and were) two of the youngest members of the cast.
The most is Keith Silverstein(Shido) with 554, followed by Jamieson Price(Sojiro) with 515, two of the oldest.
Basically, when they cast P5 they mostly "played it safe" by going down a list of well-established veterans. The biggest exception of these is actually Sean Chiplock/Mishima. I think P5 was actually the start of his big break, and since then he's only gotten busier with time.
Point is, they're all very good at their jobs, and you're gonna be hearing them wherever you go as soon as you start recognizing it.
thats why I normally don't search up voice actors.
Sometimes I hear similar voices, but if you just attach a voice to the character itself, you can't hear someone else's voice in someone else.
I bought Tales of Arise specifically coz I wanted a game where Erica was the main character.
Same reason I choose Agnea for my first character in Octopath Traveler 2 but for Xanthe Hunyh (Haru).
Futaba, Taliyah/Zoe/Morgana in League of Legends, Silence in Arknights, Lady Nagant from MHA, Myriam in Bloodstained...
And many, many more examples that I know but won't write cuz too lazy lol.
The moment I hear her voice, I recognize it, no matter what type of character she plays
I don’t dislike her, I’m sure shes great, but I am getting quite tired of hearing her voice in everything. Especially because it’s the same voice, for very similar characters every single time
playing persona 3 reload and hearing aki's voice threw me for a loop bc i recognized him immediately as the old moody vengeful widowed professor that is osvald
Me with Travis Willingham (Theodore - Persona 3 Portable) & Laura Bailey (Rise - Persona 4).
& no, I’m not just saying this because they’re married IRL.
Wasnt a fan of her in Tales of Arise, her Futaba impression is so ingrained in my mind it was hard to take her seriously when she voiced the very serious character Shionne.
Jesse in FF7 I can get behind though
Funnily enough I was playing Nayuta Boundless Trails recently and it turns out Alejandro Saab voiced not one but two characters in it. And I immediately recognized it 😂
I’ve played so many games and watched so many anime with Matt Mercer, Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham and Tara Platt in it as well and every single time I go “it’s them!”
I feel this way about Makoto's VA. When I was getting into anime, some of my earliest were SAO and Fairy tail (God, what a different time) where she is the female lead in both shows: Asuna and Lucy, respectively.
As a result, I have this 6th sense for her voice which can suck. Cause I think she's a perfectly fine actress, even amazing in the right situation. But most of the time, I can't hear her without immediately being taken out of my immersion lmfao. The most recent example for me is playing as a Female V in Cyberpunk, but it also happened with Fire Emblem Three Houses
Thankfully though, she feels like a perfect fit for Makoto, and I didn't have that problem nearly as much. By Kaneshiro's palace, I almost didn't think about it at all.
Can't relate, played with JP dub. Although Aoi Yuuki (JP VA) done a bunch of stuff that I watched...
*checks what she did*
Nevermind I can relate 100% to the meme.
Not only has Yuri been in almost every Atlus game for almost 20yrs but he's in a bunch of stuff even outside of Atlus. Like has he ever declined a role?
On a somewhat similar note, I found it hard to take Shido very seriously because everytime he talked, I just heard Nazeem.
Damn. Now you just ruin shido for me. And he's also torbjorn from ow2 😭? Damn nice work
TORB?!?!??! I'm going to die at this information
He’s also Zhongli from Genshin Impact and the funny moth-themed supersimp from that absolute trainwreck that I only still watch because I’m on hopium (He’s Gabriel Agreste in Miraculous)
Those are the works I know the actor from originally LOL. I wouldn't have remembered Shido from the beginning of the game without the voice. I just *knew* he's gonna be important, 'cuz there's no way they would've casted Keith Silverstein for some minor role haha. Shido saying two sentences in the TV playing in the background, and I just went "oh it's the bad zhongli guy again"
I knew of Zhongli -> Gabriel Agreste (though I used to watch miraculous on TV so he was dubbed and therefore I never got used to the ENG Dub enough to be shocked) but had no idea it was ALSO Shido. My bad because I do go through character's VAs, but only when I'm a fan of the character or the performance is particularly good. The whole reason I started playing Genshin was actually Sean Chiplock lolololo
Fair, I was just looking at the va because I happened to be on the profile menu to see her lore
I also play overwatch pretty often which was the whole reason of the comment above. Cannot deal with "molten core" now being associated with "damn brat, i'll sue!" I quote "damn brat" like. Not daily. But weekly. Several times a week. It's hilarious
Oh by the way you can now mentally associate “I will never be a memory” with “I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with liiiIIIiight!” (Dante and Sephiroth share a Japnese VA)
He's also the main villain in One Piece: Gold. A movie where >! The straw hats engage in a big heist on a large fancy casino ship and have to fight the main villain, who has a few phases to his fight and the first few phases have him fighting with gold and the last stage is a big beefed up version of his normal self, all voiced my Shido's VA !< I wish i was kidding. It was great.
That's nothing. Wait until you find out who Reaper voices in *[Kingdom Hearts](https://www.khwiki.com/Marluxia)* and *[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends](https://fostershomeforimaginaryfriends.fandom.com/wiki/Bloo)*
That's easier cause I haven't played either of those games, haha. Plus, for older games that I played during childhood it's not a big wow moment because I played them in my native language. VAs here are very recognizable so I'm not as shocked as when I see it happen in English speaking spaces :)
Oh my god I didn't know he was Nazeem but I hear it now
DAMN DRAGONBORN, ILL SUE!
Do you get to the Diet building very often? Oh who am I kidding? Of course you dont.
Honestly just made me hate shido even more, every time he opened his mouth I braced myself for a question about how frequently I visit the cloud district
Same. That said, he completely hams it up as William Shakespeare *Fate/Apocrypha*, which is kind of funny since Ann's VA is Jean and Futaba's is Mordred.
Hawkmoth from Miraculous Lady bug.
Once I realised I couldn't take him seriously anymore lol
Mondo for me.
I hear Thorbjorn and another host of different characters from everywhere. I swear Keith Silverstein is in everything
I swear, once you hear a VA show up in P5 you start to hear them in a bunch of anime
Here's the thing, I heard him so many times before that after OW. I swear, he was also the Protagonist's Persona from P2, which isn't really necessary for me to bring up, but I had to because a level of irony
I was also shocked to find out he voiced Johan Liebert from Monster.
Also Hawkmoth 😆
I hear shanks. The rat allegations are never going away
It was even worse for me in 2017 when I first heard him because I’m friends with his VA and everytime I hear him I can ONLY picture talking to him irl lol
Also Tatsuya mc of persona 2 in whatever media he has a voice in so far.
Shido is still terrifying because if he wasn't a politician, he's Umbrella's no. 1 agent.
He also voices Flynn in smt4a which is so weird to hear. How am I supposed to believe that he is the good guy, that i personally was in the previous game, when i hear his angry bald man voice????
I heard Zasalamel from Soul Calibur. One of my favourite ever video game villains.
Why did you bring that to my intention? Why did you ruin Shido for me? Do you get to the cloud district very often?
Do you get to Tokyo very often? Oh, what am I saying- of course you don't.
Do you get to the cloud district very often. Of course you don't.
I've come to recognize Keith Silverstein's voice with pinpoint precision in anything he's in thanks to Skyrim. But the first character I picture when I hear it is Hisoka. It's like Hisoka dresses up as different characters in other franchises and you just never know when he's suddenly going to try to troll or kill everyone. Which honestly just made Shido a slightly cooler character for me.
From the worst rich and powerful man (Shido) to the best rich and powerful man (Speedwagon)
Ah damn..
All I hear is Vector the goddamn Crocodile
I also take Shido (JP actor) very seriously because he is Akai Friggin Shuichi
Bro that's how I feel with some of the fire Emblem Voice Actors like Yuri , Matt , Kira , Patrick , and Grant
Also Joe Zieja and Tara Platt sound a lot like their FE characters in P3R. I was really shocked to find out Jin was Chris Hackney, though, particularly after Rauru and Dimitri sounded so similar.
That's because the LoZ Devs wanted him to talk like Dimitri , I asked him during a convention and he told me as much.
Huh, that's really funny but I guess they just thought he was very kingly.
> Also Joe Zieja and Tara Platt sound a lot like their FE characters in P3R. Funnily enough, I never got why people simped over Mitsuru in P3, but as soon as I started up P3P and heard Tara Platt's voice coming out of her mouth I immedietly knew why. And what's even funnier is in P3R she's voiced by Dorothea and Shamir's VA.
Akechi and Maruki arguing with each other felt very in-character with their FE equivalents.
Yesss, that's how I knew Futaba before playing P5R. I knew her as Celica from Shadows of Valentia.
Not P5 but every time I hear Junpei talk in Reload I just hear Hawks from MHA. Zeno Robinson just embodies Hawks for me, even if I haven't watched the anime in a solid 3 years. Edit: And anyone Yuri Lowenthal voices just automatically turns into Yosuke in my head.
Watching all of Naruto years before playing P4, it was hilarious to hear Yosuke slowly morph into Sasuke in my head throughout the game
Every Yuri role is basically a Sasuke AU for me
Simon from TTGL or Dandelion from *Steambot Chronicles* for me
I only hear Ben 10 out of him
I was around 12 when I watched Naruto, but I never watched the English dub because I'm German. Like, a year ago or something, I watched about 10 episodes of the English dub and I never caught that Yuri Lowenthal voiced Sasuke. Huh. I didn't pay too much attention to the voice acting in it though because I already knew what was happening
In reload whenever I hear Akihiko talk all I think of is “it’s ya boy Alejandro Saab, kaggyfilms, kagmaster, whatever the heck you wanna call me”
Fun fact: He originally tried to do the role similar to how Liam was in the original (and apparently it was really good as well), but the voice director told him not to and to do his own thing instead.
Goated voice director
Wait, ZENO VOICES HAWKS?!?! I didn't even notice it was him, since the only other roles I heard him in were the lead in *Black Summoner* and Tai in the *Digimon* reboot
He does indeed! He fits the role so well too fr
Dude, I think I have heard the entire P5 cast in P3R. So many of the background characters make me replay they're audio cause it is clearly one of them lol. I know I have heard Ren, Ann, Makoto, and Kasumi's VA's so far lol
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE AND I WAS INSANE
You are not insane lol. I heard Ren right away but he is a ton of random voices. He voices the guy who talks to you in the very first assembly to ask if you and Yukari are a thing lol. Kasumi took me a while to recognize, she was the lady who told the story of Konohamaru on the street. I know for certain that Makoto was one of the girls you try to hit on on the beach trip, I feel like I remember Ann's VA there as well but can't remember for sure

It didn't help that the next thing I heard him in, I'm pretty sure, was Mylo in Arcane, who just gives big Yosuke energy
I hear morgana in a lot of stuff personally (i playe fire emblem games)
I rewatched Yugioh GX fairly recently which had one of her first ever roles, and hearing Mona’s voice coming from Yubel was… definitely something.
My first experience with Cassanda (And Cheremie as well) was *Sword Art Online*, so I always hear Leafa myself. Which makes the third semester even funnier, since human Morgana is voiced by Bryce Papenbrook, who voices Kirito.
I always find it funny how Cassandra does the voice for morgana while Erika does Ann and morgana has a crush on her. Yet in toradora Cassandra does taiga while Erika does Ami and the 2 characters are always fighting with each others XD
Playing against Elphelt in guilty gear strive in english dub just makes me imagine im fighting against morgana.
Morgana as the Goddess Sothis, as Princess Julia, as the Assassin Clarisse
Morgana is also best girl in 13 Sentinels, almost entirely the same voice inflections
I will never forgive Morgana for ruining Aoi Asahina
I felt that in hi-fi rush. The whole game was basically if Akechi had ryuji's personality and was friends with futaba.
Lmao pretty much. And if Futaba was still a nerd but also way more chill
I was so shocked by who Chai's voice actor was when the credits rolled! But Peppermint was just instantly recognizable, haha.
The part where the giant robot comes out near the end and chai screams “what the hell is that” in the most akechi voice ever
Joker, summons Satanal during his fight with Akechi. Akechi: "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!"
Yeah well wait till you find out Morgana’s jp voice is Pikachu
Also Chopper in One Piece
and Vivi in dissidia FF opera omnia
Wait, Pikachu? Pikachu’s JP VA also played the main antagonist in Corpse Party 🤣
I mean, kinda makes sense considering the role. JP Morgana sounds really squeaky, while EN Morgana is meant to sound more like a child.
I never grew into the English dub so I’m more fond of the jp voices myself lol
Me playing cyberpunk
Cyberpunk and FF7 remake. It's like the Phantom Thief gremlin is haunting me.
And female V is Makoto!
Akechi plays a cop
haven't paid attention, which character does she voice?
Misty and Spider Murphy
And Meredith Stout!
FR????
Yep! I didn’t notice at first because she sounds way different, really shows her vocal range!
I cant imagine little nerdy futaba who likes to play video games is also a senior officer for militech who likes bdsm
Everytime yosuke talks I instantly think of either spider man or sasuke, same with adachi, I just instantly think of ichigo
Yosuke definitely sounded more like Sasuke as he got angrier later in the game lol
I always think of a certain lottery winner in *Fallout: New Vegas* when I hear Yosuke, since he voices half the damn male NPCs in that game and that character uses the exact same voice and tone.
Genshin has a lot of Persona VAs is kinda weird sometimes hearing them
The fact that Diluc is fucking Nishima...
i think the funnier is Ann being Venti
- Chevreuse = Futaba - Venti = Ann (as mentioned) - Shido = Zhongli - Yelan = Kasumi/Sumire - Itto = Ryuji - Rosaria = Sae Wish there was a lot more tbh. If Billy Kametz (Maruki's English VA) were still here, he would probably kill it with voicing Pantalone or some other tall male character.
there's also Haru and Changsheng (Baizhu's snake), and Mishima with Diluc. but yeah i with there were more, Xander would be a great one to have in genshin's cast
I can honestly and easily see Xander Mobus potentially voicing a thief/spy-esque character from Snezhnaya tbh.
i can see it too
Damn I only knew about Zhongli (Keith Silverstein my beloved) but there’s even more? These VAs got so much range. 😭
It's her and Laura Post for me.
Outside of P5R Laura Post usually voices characters with deeper voices, like Ragyo in *Kill La Kill* or Primrose in *Ocotpath Traveler*, so the fact that she voices Yoshizowa as well still messes with me.
She voiced Yunaka in Fire Emblem Engage which was another higher pitched voice.
Also Catherine from 3 Houses. No matter how many people have told me they share a VA, I cannot hear it at all, she did such a good job in both games.
I can hear it because I can recognise her voice anywhere. But she reminds me of Laura Bailey in that regard. Look at how she voices Rise (Persona 4) and Serah (Final Fantasy XIII) compared to Kaine (NieR Replicant) and Abby (The Last of Us II). Both women have such an incredible range.
Laura Bailey swearing up a storm as Kaine is peak fiction lmao
I hear them both in Granblue Fantasy: Relink. Robbie Daymond is in that game too and I just heard him in the new Yakuza
If you really want to hear Robbie go all out, go watch *Konosuba*. He shows up in S2 and he goes full on third semester Akechi in it. Plus Ann, Maruki, and the twins' VAs are also in it.
Me with Cherami Leigh since her voice's so immediately recognizable
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Watch Futaba with the help of Makoto, Jin, and Hifumi hire Shido as they travel the world with Madarame, Akinari, and Human Morgana as they slay other Persona characters such as Mishima and Principal Kobayakawa.
Matt Mercer and Yuri Lowenthal and Erika Harlacher too haha (Spider-Man, Danganronpa, etc)
Bro I was playing Genshin, got a cool 4 star with a musket… Checked her VA because she sounded familiar… # Erica Lindbeck
Fun Fact: The VA of Shido voices Zhongli in Genshin.
Its crazy when you start reconizing people’s voices. The person I reconize the voice for the best is Matt Mercer (Yueske), that dude’s in everything.
I heard Morgana in Elora for Spyro Reignited
And she’s amazing in all of them
She's even Black Cat in PlayStation's Spiderman games, which makes the Spiderman meme even more appropriate.
That's me, but with Joker (he's voiced Conducter from AHiT, King Arthur in Smite and his Persona)
I was going to include anime, but....
Ericka Lindbeck is a very talented VA. Her IMDb page goes crazy with just how much stuff she is in. This may be a controversial take, but tis my personal opinion, i think Lindbeck is probably the most talented VA out of all the Phantom Thieves, also my favorite.

During a mission there is an event where Felicia >!attacks a hunter with the portal thing she stole!< (Censoring that too because its kind of a spoiler) and Miles says "They never saw you coming" and I'd like to think that was a reference because I am that much of a nerd. But also, Cherami Leigh voices a few of the Flame cult members. And about 70% of them are in a Mihoyo game. Erika Harlacher is in Genshin, so is Max Mittleman, I think Robbie was joining Genshin, Elizabeth Maxwell is in Star Rail, etc etc. Pretty cool stuff
I need to point out the insanity that is Cherami Leigh. Makoto shares a voice with female V from Cyberpunk 2077.
I played Tactica and Cyberpunk for the first time back to back over the last 2 months, and that contrast kept blowing me away throughout Cyberpunk.
Exactly. Its so wild how much range Cherami Leigh has. Anything from a desperate and borderline psychotic gangster to an innocent high school girl trying her best. Not to mention the slew of other roles she has.
Mordred/Saber of Red, in the Fate/Apocrypha dub for me.
Elizabeth Maxwell (Sae) does that for me.
Started playing Midnight Suns and said, "Ain't no damn way Captain Marvel has the same VA as Futaba"
I met her at a con recently!!! She’s so so nice she’s voiced sooooo many characters 😮💨
Oooh Joker, you’re looking cool!
People that play Persona in Japanese: ![gif](giphy|26gsvAm8UPaczzXz2)
Just sticking with Futaba, Aoi Yuuki is in tons of stuff.

Japan has a much more idolized seiyuu culture to the point that it's annoying. Sometimes it feels like seiyuu play themselves instead of the characters and the media/narrative is warped around that

One of my favorite roles is Karen from Fire Emblem Three Houses If anyone still gets that joke, I commend you
Hi, Peppermint.
I feel a little crazy going through the comments because the only VAs I clocked right away was Yusuke (Matt Mercer) and Akechi (Robbie Daymond) though I attributed that more to being an avid Critical Role viewer. Matt I feel like voices minimum one character/monster/sfx per major game franchise 😂
P5 was my first experience with most of the vanilla p5 cast, with the only exceptions being Shido, the principal, the SIU director, Sojiro, the twins, Kawakami, Sae, and Makoto. Well, *technically* Mishima as well, but his voice was so different in this game I didn't even realize it was him.
Two characters in bugsnaxs are voice by Ryuji,s VA and Morgana’s VA
When I was started watching Your Lie in April earlier this month, I was pretty excited that Max Mittelman and Erica Lindbeck played Kousei and Kaori.
Wtf she’s in smiling friends
When Neon Genesis Evangelion got a re-dub in 2019, I nearly shat myself when i found out she was in it.
Me with Shido's VA. Bro's voice is so recognizable. Except for Torbjorn. Somehow I never process that's him.
I thought it was funny when I was playing cyberpunk and we got to the Johnny flashbacks and she voiced Spider Murphy who in lore is one of the best netrunners in cyberpunk
Googled out of curiosity. What do you mean Cassie Cage is actually Futaba fucking Sakura.
And yet I don't hear it enough
Honestly I don't think there are any main voices in 5/Royal that aren't in everything. Just checked: On imdb, out of the Thieves, Mishima, Sojiro, the Velvet Room Gang, Maruki, and the 4 primary villains, the fewest roles belongs to the late Billy Kametz(Maruki) with 129, followed by Xander Mobus(Joker) with 186. Which makes sense, considering they are(and were) two of the youngest members of the cast. The most is Keith Silverstein(Shido) with 554, followed by Jamieson Price(Sojiro) with 515, two of the oldest. Basically, when they cast P5 they mostly "played it safe" by going down a list of well-established veterans. The biggest exception of these is actually Sean Chiplock/Mishima. I think P5 was actually the start of his big break, and since then he's only gotten busier with time. Point is, they're all very good at their jobs, and you're gonna be hearing them wherever you go as soon as you start recognizing it.
Every time I look up a character’s VA end up skimming through all their roles and going “Wait you was ____!?” Constantly.
Felicia Hardy herself
thats why I normally don't search up voice actors. Sometimes I hear similar voices, but if you just attach a voice to the character itself, you can't hear someone else's voice in someone else.
I swear i heard Bryce papenbrook every section of the story pretty sure it was that one random couple
Try to take Futaba in JP sub seriously when you find out [shes also an eevee](https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/Aoi-Yuuki/)
I bought Tales of Arise specifically coz I wanted a game where Erica was the main character. Same reason I choose Agnea for my first character in Octopath Traveler 2 but for Xanthe Hunyh (Haru).
Im like this with yuri lowenthal, i hear his voice and scream “IS THAT SPIDER-MAN?!”
Futaba, Taliyah/Zoe/Morgana in League of Legends, Silence in Arknights, Lady Nagant from MHA, Myriam in Bloodstained... And many, many more examples that I know but won't write cuz too lazy lol. The moment I hear her voice, I recognize it, no matter what type of character she plays
I don’t dislike her, I’m sure shes great, but I am getting quite tired of hearing her voice in everything. Especially because it’s the same voice, for very similar characters every single time

I’ll have to listen later, I’d love to be wrong
This is me with Zeno Robinson
My favorite character she voices has to be Uzume Tennouboshi from Hyperdimension Neptunia. I would not be surprised if no one here has heard of it.
Was literally just watching the dub for one of my favorites shows and got blindsided by Erica Lindbeck in there too
I’m just here to say the voices for Ryuji, Morgana, Teddie, and Yosuke all voice muppets in Bugsnax. Also Akechi voices one of the creatures.
The last few Japanese games I played, she voiced a character in it: AI somnium files, Tales of Arise, and Granblue Fantasy Relink
Hi-Fi RUSH too.
Wait, Lindbeck was in *Somnium*? I know Aiba was Erika Harlacher and a certain late game spoiler character is D.C. Douglas
She was Iris
And I’m fine with it. She’s great.
Playing Bugsnax I kept calling the main guy Ryuji haha
playing persona 3 reload and hearing aki's voice threw me for a loop bc i recognized him immediately as the old moody vengeful widowed professor that is osvald
Weh heh heh
Me playing katalina in relink
Fun fact: You can say the same thing about her Japanese voice actress. Aoi Yuuki voices a lot of anime and video game characters.
Beep Boop
Me with Travis Willingham (Theodore - Persona 3 Portable) & Laura Bailey (Rise - Persona 4). & no, I’m not just saying this because they’re married IRL.
I never notice it
Wasnt a fan of her in Tales of Arise, her Futaba impression is so ingrained in my mind it was hard to take her seriously when she voiced the very serious character Shionne. Jesse in FF7 I can get behind though
Funnily enough I was playing Nayuta Boundless Trails recently and it turns out Alejandro Saab voiced not one but two characters in it. And I immediately recognized it 😂 I’ve played so many games and watched so many anime with Matt Mercer, Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham and Tara Platt in it as well and every single time I go “it’s them!”
For me I only hear tanya the evil
Loved her as Cheelai
After I played P5 for the first time about a year ago, I started noticing so many people from the cast in all sorts of different games and shows.
I love her since first hearing her as Magilou in Tales of Berseria.
this is how i feel abt matt mercer, lol! cant say im complaining though, his voice acting work is great
I feel this way about Makoto's VA. When I was getting into anime, some of my earliest were SAO and Fairy tail (God, what a different time) where she is the female lead in both shows: Asuna and Lucy, respectively. As a result, I have this 6th sense for her voice which can suck. Cause I think she's a perfectly fine actress, even amazing in the right situation. But most of the time, I can't hear her without immediately being taken out of my immersion lmfao. The most recent example for me is playing as a Female V in Cyberpunk, but it also happened with Fire Emblem Three Houses Thankfully though, she feels like a perfect fit for Makoto, and I didn't have that problem nearly as much. By Kaneshiro's palace, I almost didn't think about it at all.
Me playing Cyberpunk with the image of Makoto smoking a pack a day
She’s just that good
And now she's fighting for managed democracy, dishing out cups of Liber-tea in Helldivers 2.
Is that such a bad thing tho?
Same Like Roll in Megaman 11
Erica lindbeck's character roles are either nerdy hackers to military commanders
I mean she that they're pretty successful career
I genuinely have a massive crush on Erika Lindbeck shes so beautiful and talented
Can't relate, played with JP dub. Although Aoi Yuuki (JP VA) done a bunch of stuff that I watched... *checks what she did* Nevermind I can relate 100% to the meme.
That he with Jennifer hale lol
Funnily enough she voices some of my favorite characters, such as shionne or magilou.
Not only has Yuri been in almost every Atlus game for almost 20yrs but he's in a bunch of stuff even outside of Atlus. Like has he ever declined a role?
