Shapiro is Jewish and Huber is very trad Christian. It tracks.

Though it could just be more that Shapiro is himself an extremely hateable person, like the dude ticks every box for "should have been shoved into infinite lockers in High School".

I had a feeling it was due to the religion thing, but didn't want to assume.

Hearing Hiei's voice coming out of Shin-chan's dad was quite weird.

Honestly that could well be the case. Shapiro has that rapid, nasally, high-pitched speaking voice just spewing nonsense as fast as he can and it's a wonder more people do not hit him over the head with a folding chair.

Surprise! It was.

quote:

According to Hunt, both Mignogna and Mari Iijima were once again guests at the Tekkoshocon event in 2010. This is where Mignogna, Hunt claimed, began stalking the voice actress. His alleged pursuit of Iijima got to the point that the voice actress was secretly rebooked to a room on a separate floor and wing of her hotel. Hunt also said that Iijima was so frightened of Mignogna that she was given a security detail.

No one legitimate wants anything to do with Anime Matsuri anymore anyway so all they have to draw on now are chuds and grifters like Vic.

this was essentially the genesis of Vic exploding his career. Vic, Maji Iijima, and Monica Rial were all cast as leads in ADV’s english dub of SDF Macross in 2005 as Hikaru, Obviously, and Misa, respectively. simultaneously harassing both female leads in a production is just psycho poo poo.

probably doubly lovely for iijima, as she was close friends with the original actor who played Hikaru in the original language production (they were both kids at the time), who later died by suicide and to whom she dedicated the english dub. having your friend replaced by a weird pervert who won’t leave you alone seems pretty awful, especially when she simply isn’t a voice actress and was just doing this in her friend’s memory. great performance, though.

Good on Brett Weaver in that story. He was sort of like ADV's Chris Sabat and is twice Vic's size and Vic being a tiny coward would no doubt immediately flee from him.
