i think we really undermine the subtle effect a character’s voice has on our interpretation of them as a character
#snap chats
#yes this is about yamcha :) but also a bit about v*geta ngl
#ill get yamcha out of the way first since i think of his the most frequently and its the most obvious
#but anyways i always compare his japanese and english voices
#i love anime for this type of thing because it gives you a good-enough ground to compare
#yamcha is an especial victim to this kind of shift in character
#'kind of' lmao he's an entirely different person in english
#but in japanese yamcha's tone definitely sounds more dorkish
#his voice isnt too deep and he sounds light hearted most of the time
#thus he gives off a very friendly atmosphere and he's a bit lame but in an endearing way
#which i feel is pretty accurate to him as a character lmao
#in english i'm not trying to suggest sabat makes yamcha sound intimidating
#this is more so a review of his Z voice and DB; i feel like they really started to take some liberties with him then
#but even in db his tone definitely came across harsher at times
#i dont even necessarily mean words i just mean the way he said things
#and i jokke about it but in Z he really does have the energy of a surfer dude
#and i think that kind of spurs interpretations that yamcha's not smart or that he's like
#i cant even explain it but do you know what i mean? like you can't tell me japanese and english yamcha have totally different vibes
#its very interesting it really is ! its also a matter of scripts but thats a topic for another day ig
#im running out of tags but let me see if i can squeeze in v*geta
#like in japanese- i actually really like his japanese voice it makes him bearable LMAO
#he just sounds way more regal and like his nose is upturnt- which is perfect
#in english he just. i don't know- but there's not sense of regallity in his tone
#which i guess is a topic up for debate since saiyans are brutish in general but there's clearly more class among royalty
#im running out of tags i cant explain this any further forgive me feel free to ask me to continue ig 😫
