Ok, if were using Billy Zanes Voice, then absolutely Ansem SOD jumps up that list, it compliments his titty out look. Billy Zane did so good with the voice, all academic and dark and really captured the characters essence. Richard Epcar does a good job dont get me wrong, but i feel he lost some of that academic feel.

i've made An Illegal Amount of posts talking about billy zane's ansem and comparing his work to epcar but yeah BIG agree

it's not that epcar is a bad voice actor- far from it he's voiced a handful of my favorite characters and he's done a wonderful job at that. but epcar's performance is like... it sounds lke he's voicing a totally different character if that makes sense

#snap chats #like epcar's cast type is generally very loud characters. the choice to cast him as ansem really was a strange one tbh #again he's not a bad voice actor by any means but his performance as ansem doesn't feel like ansem #that's not his fault yk billy zane set a pretty high bar #and his voice was pretty much perfect for the kind of character ansem is and the script he was given #zane always had a debonair feel to his line reads: he kepts it leveled and classy #and he always sounded certain of himself yet not overly pompous #his voice was also just smoother and not too deep compared to epcar #which really fit ansem's archetype as a researcher gone mad #opposed to this character who's ALWAYS had a malevolent and dark air to them #epcar always sounded too harsh to me? like you can tell he's trying to be quieter #but maybe its just because /im/ so used to his louder performances so its bizarre trying to hear him be more subtle #idk i went in-depth in comparing them in that audio post i made months back #and i think i said everything i needed to there #ima go rb it again lmaoooo. i have thoughts written on that post but there's also more stuff in the og tags #love how this ask was just saying that zane ansem WAS more attractive and i just did my bullshit analysis shit again #cant help it i love voice work immensely and i love ansem immensely
