Today, while watching "Monk" I found out that Jason Grey-Standford who plays Disher on that show used to be a voice actor for anime. He was in DBZ and Ranma and a bunch of OVAs I've never seen.

This got me thinking... how many actors and actresses on popular shows and movies are also voice actors in video games and anime?

The voice of Vash and Ichigo from Trigun/Bleach respectively, was the second person to play the Black Power Ranger.

Anyone know of more people who are/have been on TV shows/movies who are also anime voices?

I don't know what classifies for anime around here, anymore, but I'll take my chances. Jaleel White used to do the voice for Sonic a long time ago, and he was also Steve Urkel on Family Matters. Heh, those 2 characters are polar opposites, aren't they? Hmmm... in a way, I kinda miss White playing Sonic... whenever I read a comic or something and I get to a part where Sonic talks, in my mind I hear Jaleel White's voice. ^_^;

Chiara Zanni from an Canadian televsion show much like Deggrasi plays Eva Wei from Oban as well as Hamtaro ^___^

Andrew Rannells from the Broadway play "Hairspray" does the extremely flamboyant character of Harley from Pokemon season 6-9 and Gamma, Bokkun, and Decoe from Sonic X

Bill Timoney from All My Children the soap oprea plays the new Harley after the Pokemon VAs changed



hey while lookiing through roles from VAs I found out Charmy and Cosmo are done by the same VA :3
