Sesshoumaru's new English voice actor is... 13 Years, 6 Months ago Karma: 24
Michael Daingerfield!

Here is some of his work in animation:


Hmm, I'm not sure his voice is deep enough. It'll be interesting to see how this turns out...

IF that is the truth and that is who is going to voice Sesshomaru, I am not so sure that I will watch it... his voice definitely lacks that deep sensuality and dangerous edge that I came to love about David Kaye. I will certainly check other sites for confirmation.

He's probably a very good actor. Compared to David Kaye, he sounds like a pre-pubescent boy. If he is the new actor, I won't be watching it either.

Oh well. David Kaye turned down the job, so naturally they HAVE to replace him with SOMEONE. No.. it isn't going to be the same, but thats how it works. I do not see that as a reason to besmear the ENTIRE Final Act release.

More love for Ken Narita, imho

well, can't say I'm pleased...the man's voice doesn't sound quite sophiticated or mature enought to play sesshoumaru, but I'm definately biased in the matter. Not happy, but I'll make the call when I see what he can do.

If this is the case, then he has some VERY big shoes to fill. Who knows? He might do a good job. It was a big shock when it was actually Don Brown, the voice of Jaken, who voiced the ever-so-sexy Inupapa in the third Inuyasha movie. He has potential, but he is most certainly not David Kaye, who really set the bar high. We'll just have to wait and see. It could be someone completely different who ends up voicing Sesshomaru. I'll give it a chance. Don't knock til you tried it.

Thanks for the info Faye!! I'm inclined to disagree with some of the posters here. Based on what I heard, I think the guy can pull it off. I agree his voice doesn't sound as deep as David's, but it'll be okay. For me it's not all that serious. I mean I like Sesshoumaru, but I wouldn't not watch the final act just because a different actor is doing Sesshoumaru's voice.

I had no idea they were even looking for a new voice actor. Why is David not doing it? Conflicting Scheduals perhaps?

I have been looking for the answer to THAT question ever since I found out that he wasn't doing it. I have yet to find an answer. I do know that he has changed his career path and is now doing more broadcast work - sports and such... but i thought it was kind of weird that last summer at Mecha-con in Louisiana he had stated how he was excited about the Final Act and that he definitely wanted to be a part of it - and then this year at Transformer-con in Canada, he made an official announcement that he would not be part of it.

Not sure if it was a money issue, or a schedule issue, or what(I have seen nothing stating that he turned it down)... but I am very disappointed... especially since Sesshomaru gets as much, if not more, airtime in the last 26 episodes than he got in the previous 167 combined.

As for the new guy...he has a lot to live up to.

Agreed. I listened to the demo reel of his work above. I dunno what to think. Those characters weren't exactly good to compair to. He might be able to pull it off, but who knows? hopefully they cast him well. I mean do you rmemeber the millions of voice changes for Serena in Sailor Moon (if you ever watched it)? You could always tell it was someone else, and personally I thought they did a horrible job casting her replacements.

It wont stop me from watching, but it might be less enjoyable.

I agree with demonqueen I think the person who did inu papa's voice in the movie would be a better replacement that what was played in the trailor. Who knows it may come out better than we think.

If they're a good voice actor, they'll pull it off.

Just as an example, I was amazed when I found out that Grey DeLisle, who does Azula's voice in the Last Airbender (kind of on the deeper side for a girl) also does Daphne Blake (Scooby Doo) and Wubzzy's voice (Wow Wow Wubbzy-a kid's show. Yes, I have a kid in that age group.) Three totally different characters.

absolutely. I would think that for a show with such a following, and for a character with such a huge fan base, that they would take great care in casting his replacement. It obviously wont be exactly the same, but maybe it will be good enough to loose yourself in the plot and not really take notice until you are really thinking about it.

well, I doubt they would have given him the part if they didn't think he could pull it off. I'll definately check it out...it's bound to be strange at first- it will be different, but I'm sure it's something we'll all be able to get used to eventually

Hm.
I'm going to give him a chance. He might be able to do it.


I'm more worried about who licensed the English version of the Final Act though. I heard it was Disney? Is this true?
If so, look forward to another botched version of 4Kids.

I was wondering who licensed the Final Act.
I heard it was Disney who got the license - which is why I compared it to 4Kids.
But I might be wrong.
But if it is Disney, do you really think they would let all that cursing go without editing it out?
Nope.

I heard it was still going to be on Adult Swim. There's no way they could get away with putting The Final Act on Disney. If Bleach is still on Adult Swim, I'm almost sure Cartoon Network wouldn't give the series up that easily.

4Kids is notorious for severe editing of all the anime that they license. I actually did a project in an art class that compared a bunch of the edits side by side. The project was kinda lame, but it was interesting to see what sort of things they edited.

Here are a few examples of original versions and edited versions side by side:

<--....facepalm

Some of it's pretty weird and sad.

We'll just have to hope they don't decide to do that with Inuyahsa: The Final Act, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Nope.


I guess I was confused because I have no idea what 4Kids is, and didn't know there was issue with the licensing to begin with.

Thanks for clarifying! I certainly hope they don't edit it too much. I find when the script deviates too much from the Japanese version, they arn't quite as enjoyable.

Is it even confirmed that Disney has the rights to the final act? I don't want to worry just yet...but those edits are pretty convincingly horrible

this is really depressing I <3's David Kaye as Sesshomaru, and now he's not doing it. I saw the subbed version of the episodes so if the new guy isn't up to snuff I prolly won't watch it again, even if it would help me understand it better lol
