Since it's their official channel, I guess it's legit.

takaratomychannel - YouTube



Was the voice actor of Cliffjumper SINGING at the start?!

I thought so too, but I'm mostly just curious to see if Starscream sounds like Vegeta.

hah, guess not, but pause the video at 5:17 & tell me what you see.

Yeah. But Arcee's is quite similar to Ms. Sumalee's voice... Just slightly pitched.

Yeah, I got that vibe too (and somewhat the same from Ratchet's actor), but Prime & Cliffjumper totally threw me off couse of how different they were.

the one of Cliffjumper singing...kinda old news, I'm afraid- that was like the first episode aired last month, right?
Also, I noticed that big Japanese studios' etc have their own official Facebook/ Youtube pages now. that's awesome.

Yeah. It's like their signature move as in Dragonball Z's Kame Hame Ha!

So what exactly are the talent standards the Japanese have for voice acting - just needing a name and a face? Because, wow, that is - as usual - some astonishingly awful voice over work yet again.

Well to be honest, I think part of that comes from not understanding the language, and as such, needing a little longer to warm up to or even recognize them. I've gone through that curve before when watching shows/movies/etc in other languages. Or uhhh, there's also that we're comparing them to some of the best voice work around in what we've gotten from guys like Jeffery Combs & Steve Blum (not to mention pretty much everyone on the English Prime cast & the Beast Wars guys who're still fresh in many of our minds) who're all held to a strikingly high standard.

Like, I get what you're saying about it not being as big of a focus, but I really do think language barriers & the fact that we're used to our own peeps plays a role in our perception too.
